Recorded on 3-27-2026. I explain why I believe the S&P 500 is breaking down technically after falling 2.1 percent and why I think we could still see a move toward $6,100 or even $6,000 in the near term. I also cover the 16 percent jump in the VIX, the move in the dollar, and the steady rise in the 10-year yield as signals that fear and pressure are still building under the surface. Throughout the first half of the episode, I make the case that weakness in stocks is becoming more pronounced while selective opportunities are beginning to emerge in hard assets.
I spend a big part of this episode on gold because I believe its recent touch of the 200-day moving average is a major event in an ongoing bull market and could become an important long-term buying signal. I also explain why silver may bounce early next week even though I still expect another correction before the next major push higher. Beyond precious metals, I stay constructive on uranium, where I believe current levels are attractive for both physical uranium exposure and uranium miners, while oil remains the most conflicted market on my screen because bearish technicals are clashing with bullish geopolitical fundamentals. I close by warning that Bitcoin still looks vulnerable to me, with support near $62,000, resistance near $76,000, and a broader structure that suggests more downside may still be ahead.

 Recording Date 3-24-2026. In this episode, David explains how recent moves in gold, silver, and oil reflect deeper structural changes rather than short-term noise. Drawing from decades of experience studying market cycles and investor psychology, Skarica highlights why he moved heavily into cash and defensive positioning. He also shares how sentiment, speculation, and global liquidity are driving unusual behavior across asset classes. This episode sets the stage for a potential turning point in markets.
Skarica dives deeper into the implications of a possible equity market correction, arguing that gold and silver may continue consolidating before their next major breakout. He outlines a scenario where rising oil prices and persistent deficits force central banks into a difficult position between inflation and recession. According to him, a liquidity crisis could trigger aggressive monetary easing, which would ultimately fuel a powerful rally in precious metals. He also emphasizes structural issues like declining foreign demand for U.S. debt and geopolitical instability reshaping energy markets. The conversation concludes with tactical insights on positioning, highlighting selective re-entry into oversold assets while maintaining caution.
 
Key Insights in this episode
✅ Skarica moved 70 to 75 percent into cash expecting a market shakeout driven by geopolitical risk
✅ S&P 500 key breakdown level near 6500 could trigger accelerated downside and volatility spike
✅ Gold and silver may decline further short term due to liquidity stress before a major breakout
✅ Massive US deficits and rising debt costs remain the strongest long-term bullish driver for gold
✅ Oil prices may be artificially suppressed despite tight physical supply and geopolitical tensions
✅ Copper and energy transition demand could rise despite recession due to EV and infrastructure shifts

Recorded on 3-20-2026. I explained why I expect further downside toward the 6,000–6,100 range as volatility remains elevated and yields move higher. I also highlighted weakness in the dollar and how macro factors like global tensions and liquidity pressures are influencing market direction. Overall, my outlook for equities in the near term remains bearish, with key resistance and support levels clearly defined.

In commodities, I covered sharp declines across gold and silver, both of which are now trending lower with strong downside momentum and likely heading toward major support zones and their 200-day averages. I pointed out a potential bounce setup in copper at its 200-day moving average, while uranium continues to weaken short term despite strong structural fundamentals. In energy, oil remains indecisive with a bearish tilt, while natural gas and coal appear stretched and due for pullbacks. I also discussed continued weakness in platinum and palladium, a bullish setup forming in nickel, and a potential short-term rebound in Bitcoin as momentum begins to shift.

Doomberg joins the discussion to break down the surprising stability in oil markets amid the Iran conflict and the disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, revealing why prices remain anchored near $95 WTI despite one of the most significant geopolitical shocks in decades.

👉 Technical Analysis Video Series
Recording Date 3-16-2026. In this interview, Doomberg explains how the global oil market is absorbing a potential multi-million barrel per day supply disruption through a combination of excess global capacity, strategic petroleum reserve releases, and rapid production responses from regions such as U.S. shale, Russia, Canada, Venezuela, and Argentina. He outlines a "supply waterfall" framework, showing how incremental production, inventory drawdowns, and demand destruction can offset even large shocks, keeping prices far below extreme forecasts. According to Doomberg, the market's calm is signaling that the world is not short oil, but rather well supplied, even in crisis conditions.
Doomberg also dives into the mechanics of oil pricing, emphasizing that the quoted "price of oil" depends heavily on contract timing, delivery location, and futures roll dynamics, factors often misunderstood during volatile periods. He highlights how past anomalies, including negative WTI pricing, illustrate the importance of understanding contract structures. Looking ahead, Doomberg expects oil prices to trend significantly lower over the next 12–18 months, arguing that any spike driven by war would be temporary and ultimately unsustainable as supply overwhelms demand. He also explores longer-term implications, including new pipeline infrastructure to bypass chokepoints and the broader political consequences shaping market sentiment.
 
Key Insights in this episode
✅ Doomberg explains why oil remains near $95 despite a major geopolitical shock
✅ Global oversupply, SPR releases, and rapid production response stabilize prices
✅ Strait of Hormuz disruption exposes risks, but not a true shortage
✅ Markets adjust through "all-of-the-above" supply, rerouting, and substitution
✅ Oil pricing depends on contracts, location, and futures roll dynamics
✅ LNG disruption is smaller in global context than headlines suggest
✅ Long-term outlook points to significantly lower oil prices within 12–18 months

Recorded on 3-13-2026. I begin with the S&P 500, which moved lower during the week and is starting to show signs of technical weakness as volatility rises and the U.S. dollar strengthens. With bond yields climbing and investors becoming more cautious, I discuss why the short-term outlook for equities may remain pressured and where the next potential support zones could emerge if selling continues.
From there I move through the major commodity markets and highlight the technical setups forming across the sector. Gold has started to soften after a strong run while silver and mining stocks are showing more pronounced downside momentum. Copper remains under pressure as it drifts toward longer-term moving averages, uranium equities are approaching levels that could create new buying opportunities, and energy markets remain highly sensitive to geopolitical developments. I also touch on natural gas momentum, coal's reaction to broader energy trends, weakness developing in platinum and palladium, a tightening consolidation pattern forming in nickel, and the short-term technical picture for Bitcoin as it trades near important resistance levels.
 
Key Insights in this episode
✅ S&P 500 fell 1.6%, showing a potential topping pattern
✅ VIX rising as market uncertainty increases
✅ U.S. dollar up 1.7% as investors seek safety
✅ Gold down 1.9% after breaking a bear flag
✅ Silver down 3.5%, signaling further weakness
✅ Copper down 0.9%, trending toward the 200-day average
✅ Uranium mostly flat, equities drifting toward support
✅ Oil surged 8.6% on geopolitical tensions
✅ Natural gas down 1.7% but still in an uptrend
✅ Coal mostly flat, struggling at resistance
✅ Platinum & palladium down ~5%, bearish setups forming
✅ Nickel forming a bullish pennant
✅ Bitcoin slightly down, facing resistance near key levels
