A major update has emerged regarding the Iran-Iraq war. What impact will it have on the A-shares and gold? To be honest, seeing the brutality of war, I just want to say that I am proud to be born in China! Now, here are a few of my reflections: ① Current situation of the war: TLP announced that Khamenei is dead, and the war continues! Media outlets are also saying the body has been found, while Iran claims this is psychological warfare. Now, it remains to be seen whether he will give a televised speech to refute this! Some say that if he is truly dead, gold will fall; if not, it will continue to rise. I think there's some truth to this, but it's somewhat far-fetched! We'll see if there are any larger turning points, such as TLP declaring victory. ② Reflections on war: The reasons for waging war are simply stated: preventive attack! Iran has been oscillating between extremes, being very hard or very soft during negotiations, and in diplomacy too, choosing to stand on the sidelines while fearing to provoke the U.S.! The pursuit of peace is hoping for compromise to seek peace! ③ Next week for A-shares and gold: Gold should open significantly higher, and it may not be good to chase after the rise. I think a lot of funds already knew about the impending attack in advance, because many countries issued warnings simultaneously on Friday evening! As for A-shares, I believe if it opens low or breaks 4080, it will be a short-term excessive drop, and we need to wait for a recovery! The overall trend is that the declines caused by wars in recent years will eventually be reclaimed! So there's no need to panic excessively; instead, we need to find learning opportunities when others are in panic! What do you think? Feel free to discuss!

Geopolitical Escalation Update Iran has formally requested an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council, calling recent U.S. and Israeli strikes “acts of aggression” and urging immediate international intervention. Tehran is signaling a defensive posture. Officials state their armed forces are ready to defend national sovereignty, while diplomatic outreach is ongoing across the Gulf region to prevent further escalation. Earlier reports indicate coordinated U.S.–Israeli strikes targeted Iranian defense and intelligence infrastructure. In response, Iran claims retaliatory actions, including strikes on Israeli targets and the U.S. Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain. Global concern is rising rapidly. Governments are calling for restraint as fears grow over a broader regional conflict. The coming days are critical. Diplomacy vs. escalation the next move will shape global stability.

🚨 MUST READ FOR EVERYONE $ALICE THIS IS THE REASON US IS ATTACKING IRAN.$BONK It has very little to do with regime change. It has very little to do with nuclear weapons too. $POWER The major reason is the natural resources Iran holds. Here's everything Iran currently has: - 208 billion barrels of Crude Oil worth $13.9 trillion, 3rd largest in the world. - 1200 trillion cubic feet of Natural Gas worth $3.18 trillion, 2nd largest in the world. - 320 metric tons of Gold worth $54 billion. Apart from this, Iran also has a substantial amount of Silver, Copper, Iron ore, Lithium, Zinc and rare resources. As per current estimates, these all have a combined worth of $27.3 trillion. This is more than China's and Germany's GDP and almost 80% of the US GDP. If the US somehow gains control of this, it'll have absolute control over several natural resources.

IS SAID THAT AMERICA AND ISRAEL HAVE BEGUN MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN. 🇮🇷🇮🇱🇱🇷 $PAXG $SAHARA $FOLKS There are reports circulating that explosions have been heard or seen in parts of Iran. At this stage, details are still unclear, and there is no official confirmation about the cause — whether it was military activity, air defense response, accidents, or other incidents. Whenever sudden explosion reports emerge in sensitive regions, speculation spreads quickly online. However, it’s important to wait for verified information from government authorities or reliable news agencies before jumping to conclusions. Iran is currently operating in a tense regional environment, and any unexpected blasts naturally raise concerns about possible escalation or security incidents. But such events can also be linked to training exercises, internal accidents, or infrastructure issues — not necessarily attacks. For now, the situation remains developing. Authorities are expected to release more details soon, and confirmation will clarify what actually happened. Stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available. 🌍⚖️🔥
