Since last week: Geopolitical tensions and weak hiring numbers have investors seeking economic safe havens.
1. Lithium Takes Off

3. Money for Nuclear
In another example of showing that the US is serious about nuclear energy, the Department of Energy has recently made available $2.7 billion in contracts for enrichment services to help supply high-assay, low-enriched uranium. Four companies were awarded those contracts and this is just one example of how much money there is in this sector.

4. Don’t Overlook Tech
With all of the talk of a commodity bull market, it’s easy to miss the fact that the tech sector is poised for big things. Some names in the space have already won big, thanks to AI, but there is still big money to be made in other parts of tech. You can learn more about what those are by clicking here.
What to Look For
The big questions will surround continued geopolitical turmoil and how that will weigh on the markets.
