Thursday's looking interesting. Trump's bringing together Congo and Rwanda leaders to ink a deal that could reshape access to critical minerals in eastern Congo. The timing matters—these resources power everything from smartphones to mining rigs, and American firms have been eyeing this region for years. If this agreement sticks, we might see shifts in supply chains that ripple through tech and energy sectors. The conflict's been dragging on, choking off access to resources that matter for infrastructure scaling. Whether this diplomatic push actually stabilizes the region or just shuffles the deck remains the real question.

The mining game has started again. Can the US really secure Africa with this move? I'm not very optimistic.

Playing the mineral geopolitics game again—Americans really know how to pick their timing. They're just one step away from outright saying, "I'm going to choke your chip supply chain."
