Globally, spot ‍gold broke ⁠above the psychological milestone ‌of $4,600 an ⁠ounce on ⁠Monday for ​the first time, as ‍safe-haven ​demand and expectations of rate cuts kept bullion a favoured ⁠asset.

It was trading at $4,568.13 per ounce, up 1.31 per cent at 9am UAE time, driven by geopolitical and economic uncertainties and growing bets around interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve.

Some of the key factors driving precious metals are growing risks of US strikes on Iran due to protests in the Persian country, as US President Donald Trump has threatened to hit Iran a few times.

In addition, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said he is under federal criminal investigation related to the $2.5 billion renovation of the central bank’s headquarters. This also sent jitters among investors on Monday morning.

The Fed chief called it a "pretext" of the government aimed at putting further pressure on the central bank to lower rates.

太陽光発電とは ~基礎知識~補助・支援政策
1. 太陽光発電の仕組み太陽光発電(ソーラー発電、光伏発電)は、太陽の光(光子)が太陽電池(PVモジュール)に当たることで、内部の半導体材料(一般的にはシリコン)が光起電力効果によって電子を動かし、直流電流を生じさせる技術です。生成された直流電力は、インバータ(変換装置) によって家庭で使える交流電力に変換され、家電製品の電源として利用されます。余剰分は電力系統(電力会社の電力網)に売電(系統電力へ供給)することもできます。2. 利点と課題利点再生可能エネルギーであり、温室効果ガス排出が少ない日射さえあれば発電可能で、地域分散型電源としての導入が期待される自給率向上、電気代削減、災害時のバックアップ電源としての役割課題・注意点日射量に依存するため、夜間や曇天時には発電量が低下設備導入コスト(モジュール、架台、設置工事、インバータ、配線、申請費用など)がかかる屋根の強度、方角・傾斜、影の影響、接続・許認可系統手続などの制約3. 導入モデルの類型自家消費型(自己利用重視型):発電した電力をまず自宅で消費し、不足分や余剰分を系統に売買全量売電型:発電した電力をすべて電力会社に売電 (日本では
東京で歯科治療を選ぶときに重視したいポイント
東京で歯科治療を選ぶときに重視したいポイント
東京には数多くの歯科医院があり、選択肢が多い反面、「どこを選べばよいのか分からない」と感じる人も多いでしょう。まず考えたいのが、通いやすさです。歯科治療は一度で終わらないケースが多く、特にインプラントや矯正などは通院期間が長くなります。自宅や職場から無理なく通える立地かどうかは、継続のしやすさに直結します。次に重視したいのが、説明の丁寧さです。治療方法や選択肢、リスクについて、専門用語だけでなく分かりやすく説明してくれるかどうかは、安心して治療を受けるための重要なポイントです。また、治療実績や設備だけでなく、相談しやすい雰囲気も見逃せません。質問しづらい環境では、不安を抱えたまま治療が進んでしまうこともあります。東京で歯科治療を選ぶ際は、「有名かどうか」「安いかどうか」だけでなく、自分に合った通い方ができるかという視点で比較することが大切です。
