Energy stocks continued to deliver relatively strong performance, while Basic Materials lagged, amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Markets rallied after President Trump described recent talks with Iran as productive, and postponed planned military strikes. While this temporarily eased investor fears, uncertainty remains regarding the duration and outcome of the ongoing Middle East conflict. We expect the next few days to be critical, with continued volatility likely. Any positive news could trigger a sharp rebound in beaten-down sectors, particularly Basic Materials.

We also cover material developments from companies under our coverage, including a health and wellness firm launching its first kid-focused product, and resource juniors targeting silver, gold, nickel, copper, and antimony.
