Welcome to the KE Report Weekend Show! 

 

A historic week marked by heightened market volatility and tariff headlines saw sentiment shift from fear to cautious optimism. While gold is holding strong as a safe haven, the US Dollar and bonds are failing to follow suit.

 

This weekend, we step back to assess the broader market landscape - examining US indices, bond markets, investor positioning, and the role of precious metals in a shifting environment.

 

  • Segment 1 & 2 - Rick Bensignor, President of Bensignor Investment Strategies kicks off the show to discuss the extreme market volatility, driven by algorithms and policy uncertainty, and how it’s forcing investors to reassess traditional strategies. He warns that typical safe havens like bonds and the dollar are failing, while gold is emerging as the only asset acting like a true safe haven in this unpredictable environment.

  • Segment 3 & 4 - Richard Postma, AKA Doc, is back to discuss the continued strength of the gold market, emphasizing that despite being technically overbought, the bull run is not over. He highlights how gold has emerged as the primary safe haven in a volatile and uncertain global environment, fueled by weakening U.S. dominance, rising central bank gold purchases, and shifting money flows. Doc favors mid-tier gold producers like Equinox and Fortuna for their growth potential and sees 2026 as a likely breakout year for mining stocks.
