Are commodities giving us a clearer read on the economy than the stock market?
Stocks and Treasuries are trading around the flatline in the early going today. Gold and crude oil are modestly lower along with the dollar, while Bitcoin is holding recent gains around $104,000.
Figuring out this economy is HARD. And also…soft! That’s one of the key messages I’m sharing at the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Symposium Miami later this week. And it’s one I’ll give you a “sneak peek” at here.
Stocks rallied again yesterday, though they gave up some momentum into the close. The S&P 500 is now up 14% from its April 9 low – thought still down almost 4% on the year. Most markets are relatively calm today as investors nervously eye US-China trade talks this weekend. Gold and crude oil are up modestly, though, while Bitcoin is adding to yesterday’s solid rally.

Executive editor of Gold Newsletter Brien Lundin and editor of Gold Charts R Us Omar Ayales discuss the current "golden era" in precious metals and investment opportunities. Lundin highlights central bank buying, de-dollarization efforts, and potential U.S. investor participation as gold prices rise. He predicts silver outperforming gold and recommends junior mining stocks. Ayales focuses on the shift to an inflationary environment, global fragmentation, and increased gold holdings as a reserve asset. Both experts note the lack of U.S. investor participation as a bullish sign and provide price targets for precious metals.
