π© π© π Rick Rule, a veteran natural resource investor, educator, and longtime capital markets participant, delivers a grounded, experience-driven outlook shaped by more than four decades in mining and energy investing. Drawing on real-world capital cycles rather than abstract theory, Rick Rule explains why gold and silver are responding not to short-term hype but to sustained erosion in currency purchasing power.

π π© π© π π© Michael Oliver, founder of Momentum Structural Analysis, delivers a focused macro outlook built around identifying major market turning points before they become obvious. He explains why U.S. equities appear to be entering the later stages of a prolonged topping process while gold and silver have only just begun a decisive breakout.

π© π© π π© In this episode of Monday Market Moves, I break down what happened in the markets last week and walk through what Iβm watching closely in the days ahead. I start with the S and P 500 and currencies to set the macro tone, then move into gold and silver where weβre seeing corrective price action and clearly defined technical levels. From there, I cover industrial metals and uranium, explaining where consolidation is healthy and where longer term structural strength continues to build beneath the surface. I also dig into the energy markets as oil reacts to...

Mega Returns: Website: YouTube: David Skarica, founder and editor of Addicted to Profits and Profit From Pessimism, delivers a deeply contrarian macro-outlook focused on rising systemic risk across global markets. Drawing from historical market cycles, Skarica explains why government debt, distorted GDP growth, and stubbornly high long-term interest rates point toward an eventual economic downturn. He emphasizes that bond markets, not equities, are flashing the clearest warning signals, while inflationary pressures from tariffs and fiscal excess continue to build beneath the surface....

π π© π© This weekβs Monday Market Moves opens with Steve Barton reviewing fresh all-time highs in the S&P 500 amid holiday thinned trading, declining volume, and lingering effects from triple witching.

π π© π© This weekβs Monday Market Moves begins with Steve Barton examining the S&P 500βs post triple witching behavior alongside movements in the dollar, Treasury yields, and volatility. He explains how elevated volume tied to contract rollovers distorts short term signals while underlying momentum remains intact. The dollar firms against other currencies but faces heavy resistance, yields pull back within a longer-term downtrend, and market complacency stays elevated as risk appetite holds firm. From there the focus shifts to precious metals where gold pushes into...

Join me for Rick Rule's Golden Triangle Bootcamp here:π Derrick Pattenden, CIO of Nations Royalty, frames the discussion around a structural gap in the mining sector: Indigenous communities often participate at the project level but rarely capture diversified, long-duration value. He outlines how Nations Royalty was built to solve this problem by pooling royalty interests, reducing single-asset risk, and converting episodic mine revenue into scalable, enduring cash flow.

In this episode of Monday Market Moves, I break down what happened in the markets last week and walk through what Iβm watching closely in the days ahead. I start with the S and P 500 and currencies to set the macro tone, then move into gold and silver where weβre seeing corrective price action and clearly defined technical levels. From there, I cover industrial metals and uranium, explaining where consolidation is healthy and where longer term structural strength continues to build beneath the surface.
I also dig into the energy markets as oil reacts to geopolitical developments and equity performance begins to tell a different story than crude prices alone. I review natural gas and coal with a focus on trend support and potential retracements, then round out the metals space with platinum, palladium, and nickel setups Iβm actively tracking. I close the episode with my latest thoughts on Bitcoin, balancing a near term trading opportunity against a more cautious longer-term outlook, and laying out the key levels that matter most right now.
