Venezuela Volatility + Gold/Silver Leadership: Mish Schneider on What Commodities Do Next

This episode of Financial Compass kicked off the new year with a sharp look at what’s driving commodities and the key signals traders should be watching now. Host Todd M. Schoenberger welcomed Mish Schneider, Chief Strategist at MarketGauge, for a wide-ranging conversation on oil volatility, precious metals rebalancing, and the commodity trends shaping early 2026. Mish broke down why crude is primed for volatility following Venezuela headlines — and how to approach energy exposure through names like Valero or broader ETFs like XLE, with discipline around stop-losses. The duo also discussed gold and silver’s recovery, the gold-silver leadership indicator, and why Mish remains bullish on metals even as copper consolidates due to commodity index rebalancing. They also explored what Mish is watching next: copper, grains, and soft commodities, including the potential setup in wheat, corn, soybeans, and the DBA index, driven by climate and geopolitical pressures. Plus, Mish shared thoughts on Ford’s EV strategy and why tariffs and supply chains could matter for the next phase of sector rotation. If you want a practical, trader-focused breakdown of what’s moving commodities — and how to navigate 2026, this episode delivers. 👉 Don’t forget to Like 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠... 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📱 Follow us for real-time updates: LinkedIn:   / crosscheck-media-llc   Instagram:   / crosscheckmedia   Facebook:   / crosscheckmedia   📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.
