I explain why I expect weakness next week as volatility starts returning to the market with the VIX climbing 7.2%, the U.S. dollar unexpectedly rallying 1.5%, and the 10 year yield surging toward 4.75%, which I believe could put significant pressure on equities and risk assets. I also walk through gold\u2019s 3.6% weekly decline and silver\u2019s 4.1% drop while outlining the exact support levels, moving averages, and buy zones I\u2019m personally watching for what I believe could become one of the final major buying opportunities before the next bull leg higher in precious metals. Throughout the episode I discuss gold to silver ratios, platinum to silver ratios, physical bullion strategies through PHYS and PSLV, and why moments of panic selling in commodities often create the biggest long term opportunities for disciplined investors. I also spend a large part of the episode focused on uranium, copper, oil, natural gas, coal, platinum, nickel, and Bitcoin as several sectors approach critical technical levels. I explain why I remain extremely bullish long term on uranium despite expecting additional downside in URNM and other uranium equities, and why I would actually welcome a major washout event before what I believe will eventually become a powerful nuclear driven commodity cycle. I discuss why copper remains one of my favorite long-term trades despite short term weakness, why Brent crude appears stronger than WTI, and why natural gas may finally be breaking above key resistance after reclaiming the $3 level. Toward the end of the episode I also explain why I believe the housing market has already crashed when measured against gold, silver, copper, and platinum rather than U.S. dollars, showing how the average U.S. home now costs dramatically fewer ounces of hard assets than it did just a few years ago, which I believe signals a massive long-term shift toward real assets and commodities.
