asbe/iStock via Getty Images By Ezequiel Gomes Silver ( XAGUSD:CUR ) pushed sharply higher this Monday as traders tracked a fresh surge in haven demand tied to rising U.S.-Iran tensions and new uncertainty around U.S. trade policy. This mix also kept currency markets jumpy and amplified moves across precious metals. Market snapshot Silver was last around $87.28, extending a powerful rebound that has been defined by wide daily ranges rather than steady step-by-step gains. The day’s range mattered as much as the level. Trading data showed silver moving between about $84.39 and $87.87, a band that underscores how quickly liquidity and sentiment have been flipping in late-February trade. Silver price dynamics (January - February 2026) (Source: TradingView) In the broader complex, precious metals moved higher together, with silver outperforming as investors leaned into protection trades and shorter-term momentum strategies. Drivers traders cited: risk headlines, tariffs, and FX Geopolitical risk remained a primary catalyst. Markets kept a close watch on developments tied to U.S.-Iran tensions, which have periodically lifted demand for defensive assets and widened price reactions in metals. Trade policy uncertainty added a second layer. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling on tariffs, followed by renewed tariff announcements and legal questions, fed a “policy risk premium” that helped support havens and kept cross-asset correlations unusually tight. Foreign exchange moves also mattered because silver is dollar-priced. The dollar’s response to the court decision and subsequent headlines shaped how aggressively non-U.S. buyers and macro funds were willing to add exposure into strength. What comes next: Rates calendar and key levels Even with geopolitics in the driver’s seat, traders still treated rates as the gatekeeper for durability. If yields stay firm, rallies can struggle to hold; if yields ease, silver tends to keep more of its gains after the initial headline impulse. This we...

She emphasized, "2026 is going to be a breakout year for GeneDx," highlighting the company's leadership in rare disease diagnostics, bolstered by a recent FDA breakthrough device designation. Stueland described Infinity, the company's rare disease data set, as "the world's largest and most diverse rare disease data set," and outlined the expansion into new markets, including general pediatrics, NICU, prenatal, adult specialists, and international. Stueland shared that the company is "nearly tripling what was already the largest sales force in rare disease to capture the wide open space ahead of us," expanding from approximately 50 reps in 2025 to 75 in 2026 for foundational markets, plus dedicated teams for general pediatricians, NICU, prenatal, adults, and international markets.

Makhbubakhon Ismatova/iStock via Getty Images Undervalued dividend stocks are a great way to ride out market volatility. Unlike most software companies that don’t pay or pay very little dividends, REITs pay you to wait during bull and bear markets alike. That’s why they can make for great " set it and forget it" types of holdings. This brings me to UDR, Inc. ( UDR ), which I last covered in August 2025, highlighting its above-guidance NOI growth, improving tenant retention, and disciplined cost management. UDR remains a good choice at the current price of $37.17 with a forward P/FFO of 14.6 and a 4.6% dividend yield. As shown below, UDR stock currently sits solidly in the bottom half of its 52-week price range. UDR Stock 1-Yr Trend (Seeking Alpha) In this article, I revisit UDR, including recent business results , and discuss why the current price makes plenty of sense for long-term value and income investors, so let’s get started! Why UDR? UDR, Inc. is a leading multifamily REIT that owns, acquires, and redevelops apartment communities across major U.S. metropolitan markets. Its portfolio spans across highly desirable coastal and Sunbelt regions, including New York, San Francisco, Orange County, Dallas, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. UDR’s markets lean favorably toward renting, especially as home sales have slowed down over the past couple of years due to unaffordable prices. As shown below, UDR’s median resident rent-to-income sits in the low-20% range and is at the low end of its 6-year range. Investor Presentation UDR delivered steady performance during Q4 2025, with FFOA (FFO as adjusted) rising by 2% YoY to $0.64. This was driven by revenue growth of 1.8%. Expenses grew by 2% YoY, resulting in NOI growth of 1.7% over the prior year period. UDR’s occupancy landed at a high 96.9%, which is the same as the average occupancy for the full year 2025. Notably, UDR is seeing high tenant retention, which in 2025 was 10 percentage points higher than historical levels. Hi...

Former British Ambassador to the U.S. Peter Mandelson enters a vehicle outside a reported residence, after police launched a misconduct in public office investigation following the release of U.S. Justice Department files linked to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, in London, Britain, Feb. 14, 2026. Chris J Ratcliffe | Reuters Police in London on Monday arrested Peter Mandelson, Britain's former ambassador to the United States, who has been under investigation for his relationship with notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Metropolitan Police in London said that Lord Mandelson, 72, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct. Police did not identify him by name, as is customary in Britain, but photos of him being led from his house by police were published Monday. "He was arrested at an address in Camden ... and has been taken to a London police station for interview," the Metropolitan Police said. "This follows search warrants at two addresses in the Wiltshire and Camden areas." Mandelson has previously denied any wrongdoing in his dealings with Epstein. Mandelson's arrest came four days after British police arrested Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor , former prince and the brother of King Charles III , on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Mountbatten-Windsor was released later Thursday. While the nature of the investigation into him was not revealed, Thames Valley Police have said they were assessing reports that he had sent Epstein confidential trade reports in 2010 , when he was Britain's special envoy for international trade. This is breaking news. Please refresh for updates.

ismagilov/iStock via Getty Images Introduction As a financial analyst here on Seeking Alpha, I enjoy analyzing different stocks on the daily. I'm someone who's always in the stock market looking for a potential deal. But recently, I've been thinking about the idea of revamping my entire portfolio. The idea is to own a few ETFs (maybe three or four) as core positions hold a mix of four to five high-growth stocks and some dividend payers for income reliability. Maybe this is due to older age, but the idea of owning mostly ETFs with a few individual positions is becoming more and more attractive. Why not let ETFs do the work? With the rapid adoption of AI likely to result in strong growth, particularly for American businesses, this may not be a bad idea for those looking for a simple way to build wealth. In this article, I discuss two ETFs I would look to start with as core positions for investors wanting to collect income while also building wealth. The ETF Boom In 2026, the plethora of investments we have at our fingertips is amazing. The chart below shows the astronomical growth of ETFs since 2008. And going forward, I expect this to continue due to the evolution of technology. State Street The first U.S. ETF, the S&P 500 ( SPY ), was introduced just 33 years ago in 1993. The stock market has been around for a lot longer. With more people likely to invest going forward, there's a high probability of seeing more investment vehicles hit the market. For example, covered call ETFs have been very popular among income-focused investors in recent years. In my opinion, this is due to high inflation. Although inflation has come down since 2023, this remains elevated. Some are even saying the zero interest rate environment that we once knew is gone. While this remains to be seen, I do believe we will continue to see more higher-yielding investments hit the market. ETFs are great because they offer instant diversification. They also take the guesswork out of investing. Buy and...
