As mentioned in previous posts, Iran and the US have yet to reach an agreement! Israel is the closest ally of the US in the Middle East and has received significant support from the US in this conflict regarding weapons and economics to counter #Iran ! Israel ramping up its alertness and focusing intently on the Iron Dome defense system indicates that the war could continue into next week! The use of cruise missiles and long-range UAVs has become a norm in the Middle Eastern conflict! Iran has an advantage as their upgraded UAVs are cheaper than Israel's Iron Dome system! Clearly, Iran isn't worried about a prolonged war, as a long-term engagement would inflict more economic and military damage on Israel than on Iran! Iran only fears the economic and military power of the US! The US remains the number one superpower in terms of economy and military, so it isn't worried about a prolonged conflict, whether it lasts 5 years or 10, with an endless arsenal sufficient for 100 years of continuous warfare! At this point, the war could drag on for a long time, making $XAU the best hedge asset in the world! Long $XAU ! TP1: $5285 TP2: $5455 SL: $4585!
