Key Points
- Energy metals are testing key support as the U.S. dollar, oil prices, and Fed rate hike expectations pressure the market.
- Copper and lithium remain weak in the short term, but their broader structures still support a possible rebound.
- Uranium may stay supported by the energy security theme, while silver is approaching a major buy zone.
Market Overview
Energy metals have experienced a pullback due to the firm U.S. dollar, rising oil prices, and increasing expectations of Federal Reserve rate hikes. This correction may potentially set the stage for a rebound in copper, uranium, lithium, and silver, provided that key support levels hold.
