This week's 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. He explains how retail driven optimism is lifting prices while professional traders remain largely sidelined, keeping volatility compressed and the VIX subdued. The dollar tests the lower boundary of a long-term channel before bouncing, setting up a potential inflection points for currencies and commodities. Attention then turns to precious metals where gold confirms a decisive breakout to new highs, silver surges aggressively with backwardation signaling tight physical supply, and mining equities continue trending higher as capital flows toward hard assets.
The episode then moves through the broader commodity landscape with copper accelerating alongside improving volume, uranium holding firm as spot prices lag stronger term contracts, and energy presenting opportunity through weakness. Crude oil retreats after rejection at key moving averages, leaving oil equities historically cheap and setting up longer term value. Platinum and palladium post powerful gains led by platinum clearing prior highs, while nickel rebounds from a double bottom. Bitcoin remains under pressure, carving out a large bearish formation as support levels come into focus. Steve wraps up by addressing viewer feedback, outlining portfolio positioning, and previewing upcoming live streams, bootcamps, and educational content for serious investors.
