The first KE Report Weekend Show of 2026 sets the stage for a year that could look very different across commodities and energy markets. The show explores how precious metals captured investor attention after a volatile end to 2025, why sentiment toward hard assets appears to be shifting, and what that could mean as the new year unfolds. The conversation then pivots to oil and natural gas, examining how a weak commodity tape contrasted with resilient equity performance and why select opportunities may be emerging beneath the surface. Overall, the show focuses on big-picture trends, market psychology, and how investors might think about positioning for 2026 amid ongoing volatility and changing fundamentals.
- Segment 1 & 2 - Darrell Fletcher, Managing Director of Commodities at Bannockburn Capital Markets, joins the KE Report Weekend Show to break down the explosive 2025 performance in metals - led by gold then silver - discussing fundamentals versus momentum, valuation shifts toward hard assets, index rebalancing volatility, and what these historic moves could mean for commodities heading into 2026.
