Chris Blasi of Neptune Global says gold's price run isn't over — while he expects a summer of consolidation, he believes it's still in a bull market.

He also shares his thoughts on silver, platinum and palladium.

Ronald-Peter Stoeferle of Incrementum shares takeaways from the latest "In Gold We Trust" report, emphasizing that gold is currently in a bull market consolidation phase. He believes the metal is in the midst of a "golden decade" that will ultimately take it to US$8,900 per ounce.

"If we have a look at the relative valuation on gold, I think this gold bull market is standing on granite, not on sand. So I think on a relative basis this is a very, very healthy bull market," he explained.

Edward Sterck shares insights on the World Platinum Investment Council's latest quarterly report, explaining that although Q1 brought the sector's first surplus in six quarters, the platinum market is still expected to be in deficit this year.

"Reflecting on what happened in Q1, and those ETF and exchange stock outflows, we're expecting investment to return and recoup some of those Q1 losses," he said. "That's what results in the forecast for a deficit of about 300,000 ounces in 2026."

Charles Lester, data manager at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, explains how the global electric vehicle (EV) market has entered a more fragmented phase in 2026 as regional demand trends sharply diverge. While Europe's EV market is accelerating on the back of subsidies, high fuel prices and tightening emissions rules, China and North America are losing momentum amid subsidy changes, tariffs and broader economic uncertainty.

In the interview, Lester breaks down the latest EV sales data and the forces reshaping the energy transition. He explains why China's domestic EV sales have fallen 17 percent year-on-year, how Europe posted a surprise 30 percent surge in March and April and why Chinese automakers exported more than 400,000 EVs in April alone as they expanded aggressively into diverse markets.

Lester also discusses the impact of Middle East tensions on fuel prices, Canada's quota-based approach to Chinese EV imports and why lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries continue gaining ground in the global battery chemistry race.

Dr. Stephen Leeb of Leeb Capital Management shares his outlook for gold, explaining how it could get to US$18,000 per ounce.

"I would place us nowhere near the top," he said during the interview.

"Basically I would say that viewing it as a cycle is probably a mistake at this point — gold's high point might not never really be defined, because I think at the end of this period that we're in, you're going to find gold at the center of the world's monetary system."

Justin Huhn of Uranium Insider shares his forecast for the uranium sector, weighing in on supply, demand and prices. While the market is currently in a pullback, he believes the long-term outlook remains strong — and in the short term, he sees uranium as "very tradable."

"It can be difficult to put money to work when the sector has pulled back, when the volatility's high, when sentiment is very, very poor," Huhn acknowledged. "(But) that's the time when you actually want to be buying."

He also explains what he's doing with his money right now, saying that while he's spent time building quality positions, his portfolio is currently underweight when it comes to sub-$250 million market cap explorers and developers.
