1431 ET – Gold finishes up 3.1%, while silver gains 6.2% as a preliminary deal to end the three-and-a-half-month conflict between the U.S. and Iran appears within reach. “Gold prices are largely moving in line with statements from President Trump and continue to remain affected by broader macro factors,” says ADM Investor Services in a note. While gold and silver close the day higher, they finish the week with losses. Gold off 2.8% to $4,215 a troy ounce, and silver down 1.6% to $67.859 a troy ounce for the week. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)

The IPO is done. Trading has begun. The SpaceX drama, however, is just beginning.
SpaceX completed its record-setting IPO on Thursday, and it closed just under $161 on Friday, up 19% from the $135 IPO price, valuing Musk’s rocket company at $2.1 trillion.
Now investors have to brace for SpaceX to be included in the Nasdaq 100 inclusion, which should happen in two weeks. That will drive $7 billion to $10 billion in buying. After that, the company will release its first quarterly earnings report, likely in July. That will be an event unto itself. After that, some shares will start to come off lockup, increasing the number of shares available to trade.

Financial analyst by day and a seasoned investor by passion, I’ve been involved in the world of investing for over 15 years and honed my skills in analyzing lucrative opportunities within the market.I specialize in uncovering high quality dividend stocks and other assets that offer potential for long term-growth that pack a serious punch for bill-paying potential. I use myself as an example that with a solid base of classic dividend growth stocks, sprinkling in some Business Development Companies, REITs, and Closed End Funds can be a highly efficient way to boost your investment income while still capturing a total return that follows traditional index funds. I created a hybrid system between growth and income and manage to still capture a total return that is on par with the S&P.
