Weekend Show – Mike Larson & Rick Bensignor – Navigating the Volatility: Precious Metals, Momentum, Trading Strategies

24 minutes

This Weekend Show dives deep into one of the most volatile stretches for gold and silver in decades. With massive intraday swings and investor sentiment whipsawing, Cory and Shad bring on Mike Larson and Rick Bensignor to dissect what’s really happening – from retail speculation and momentum exhaustion to technical triggers and institutional behavior. Both guests share practical frameworks for investors navigating the chaos, and insights into what comes next for metals, equities, and the broader market.

Segment 1 & 2 – Mike Larson, Editor in Chief at MoneyShow, joins us to dissect the wild swings in gold and silver. He sees a likely short-to-intermediate consolidation rather than a bull-market top, and lays out how to navigate momentum – separating traders from long-term investors, using risk controls and staged exits, watching key support levels, and tracking the dollar, rates, and policy-driven critical-minerals news.

Segment 3 & 4 – Rick Bensignor, president of Bensignor Investment Strategies and writer of the institutional newsletter Supposedly Irrelevant Factors (and In The Know Trader products) wraps up the show discussing buying silver and palladium on the recent pullback while remaining bullish on precious metals, explains silver’s breakout and backwardation dynamics, anticipates a short-term 5-8% equity market correction before another rally fueled by money-market outflows, and analyzes the growing retail influence and shift toward 60/20/20 portfolios favoring alternative assets like gold, crypto, and PGMs.
