Gold rebounded to $4,523 (+1.71%) as US strikes on Iran reignited the safe-haven bid after two sessions of ceasefire-driven selling. Silver led the precious metals complex higher with a +1.90% move.

The Iran story is a two-sided coin flip and gold remains the cleanest hedge for both inflation tail-risk (if oil spikes) and stagflation (if growth slows). Fed cut bets keep real yields contained.

Friday PCE inflation print is the binary catalyst — hot reading hits gold via real yields, cool print extends the rally. Support $4,450; resistance $4,580 then prior high $4,650.

Tesla closed at $442.10 (+0.40%), drifting higher with the broader Nasdaq. SpaceX-merger overhang dominated the news flow; production headlines absent.

TSLA is trading as a SpaceX-merger event rather than a fundamental EV story right now — shareholders are pricing dilution risk versus optionality. Robotaxi narrative is on the bench until next datapoint.

Any official SpaceX-merger terms or Musk commentary. June delivery numbers loom. Resistance $450; support $432. Break of $430 would be the first technical warning.
