Group 3: Geopolitical Context - The Israeli military is on high alert due to escalating tensions in the region, particularly concerning potential US military actions against Iran, which could have broader implications [4]. - The combination of geopolitical instability and expectations of monetary easing from the Federal Reserve is contributing to the bullish trend in gold and silver prices [5].

The high gold-silver ratio indicates significant upward momentum for silver, making silver-related assets a priority [1] 2.

Key advantageous minerals such as rare earths, antimony, and tungsten are expected to perform better [1] 4. Supply-side disruptions due to anti-involution trends may present opportunities in the lithium carbonate sector [1]
