Oil prices rose by 2 per cent as United States officials warned Iran of an escalation

Oil prices rose by about 2 per cent at the start of the new trade week, an increase that was closely related to the latest developments in the United States-Iran conflict, rather than any substantial change in supply and demand. This is due to the admission by an unnamed United States official that Washington was planning to expand the war, while the Pentagon was increasing the number of military aircraft in the area, which indicated the possibility of longer and broader military operations. According to the United States Central Command, a soldier was killed on Saturday during a controlled detonation in Iraq. At the same time, unidentified remains were found at the Jordanian base on Friday, further exacerbating the number of casualties that had already resulted from the killing and disappearance of two United States military personnel. Since the resumption of fighting a week ago, at least three have died, possibly four United States military personnel。

Projections: Best nuclear power stocks for the next five years

Nuclear energy is the largest zero-carbon power source in the United States, providing 47 per cent of the country ' s zero-emission power in 2023, exceeding the combined wind and solar power. Nuclear energy is not only cleaner, but also provides a stable base load of electricity that allows power plants to operate around the clock, thus improving the reliability of the grid. As more and more countries support the declaration of a threefold increase in nuclear energy production by 2050, the prospect of nuclear energy becomes more and more ingrained. The two nuclear stocks recommended were Cameco (NYSE:CCJ) and Centrus Energy (NYSE: LEU). Cameco owns the ownership of the MacArthur River and cigar lake mines in the Asabasca Basin in Canada and is expected to deliver 28 million pounds of uranium per year over the next five years. Cameco also signed an agreement with the Indian Ministry of Atomic Energy worth $2.6 billion to supply 22 million pounds of uranium ore concentrate by 2035. Centrus Energy focuses on the production of low-enriched uranium (LEU) and is expanding its Ohio facilities to meet future nuclear power needs。

General user requirements: 24 hours a day, like sending mail, secure and inexpensive. End-use of the enterprise: To be used in the management of the fund pool; financial institutions may use it to pay a bond at a clearing institution to significantly improve operational efficiency。

On July 120, this week, in an interview with FOX Business, the Managing Director of Circle Heath Tarbert responded to a question about a sharp drop in stock prices from $260 to $62. He said that the company was looking at long-term development and that stock prices would provide answers in the long term if the mission of building the infrastructure of the entire Internet platform were to be realized. Faced with the new competition brought about by the Open USD coalition of 140 companies, including Visa, Stripe, Mastercard and Google, Heath Tarbert argued that USDC, as a native supporter of 34 block chains, had a network effect of $73 billion that was very difficult to replicate. In response to the difference in market position with Tether, he said that USDC was the largest regulated and stable currency in the world and had the highest actual size of transactions。
