Wild Week in Markets: Gold, Commodities & the Next Move

It’s been one of the wildest weeks many investors will have seen for some time, with sharp swings in sentiment leaving plenty of people wondering what comes next. For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44VozqCD89c 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results In this week’s update, Garry looks at what the violent whipsaw in markets may really mean, why the US market still appears more constructive than Australia, and why gold, miners and broader commodity stocks are moving into a much more interesting area after heavy selling. The key message is that wild price action does not automatically mean the bigger opportunity has disappeared. In many cases, it can simply mean that markets have moved from overbought to oversold far more quickly than expected, creating the conditions for a better reward for risk setup once confirmation arrives. What you’ll learn: How to think more calmly and clearly after a very volatile week Why oversold conditions in commodities and miners can create opportunity Why technicals and money flows remain the key timing tool What the US market is saying versus the Australian market Why patience, staged buying and sensible weightings matter now If you’d like a more structured framework for navigating this kind of environment, that’s exactly what my Insiders Club membership is designed to provide. 🔹 Learn more about the Insiders Club (for serious wealth builders) www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club 🔹 Learn more about Portfolio Manager (professional fund management) www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/portfolio-manager Any advice in this video is general advice only.

Tech & Commodities Get Smashed. Is This the Top?

👉 Insiders Club Special Offer $149/mth for 2 months (for serious wealth builders)Entry and exit alerts, strategy, education and full email support.https://www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club Friday was an ugly session across parts of the US market, with tech, AI-related stocks and commodities all coming under pressure. But was it panic selling? Or was it a normal, healthy reset after an extreme run? For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6wRYqv9umY 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results In this week’s update, Garry looks at the evidence behind Friday’s move, including the Nasdaq, semiconductors, the VIX, volume signatures, gold, silver, copper, oil, the US dollar and the key commodity sectors. The key message is that sharp price action does not automatically mean the market has topped. Some areas had simply run too far, too fast, and the trigger arrived through a stronger jobs report, higher yield expectations and renewed US dollar strength. What you’ll learn: Why Friday looked worse on the surface than it may have been underneath Why the VIX and volume signatures matter when assessing panic Why the US dollar is still creating pressure for gold and commodities How to think about AI and semiconductor pullbacks after a major run Why staged entries, realistic expectations and sensible weightings matter now If you’d like a more structured framework for navigating this kind of environment, that’s exactly what my Insiders Club membership is designed to provide. 🔹 Learn more about the Insiders Club (for serious wealth builders)www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club 🔹 Learn more about Portfolio Manager (professional fund management)www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/portfolio-manager   Any advice in this video is general advice only.

Markets Pricing Imminent Peace: What If They’re Wrong?

Markets are pricing a relatively positive outcome from the US-Iran conflict, but what happens if peace does not come quickly? This week I look at the Strait of Hormuz, global supply chain risk, energy uncertainty, inflation pressure, and why the next few weeks may be important for markets. At the same time, the US technology sector continues to surge, with AI-related earnings and capital expenditure still driving major leadership. That creates a difficult backdrop for investors: powerful structural themes on one side, and unresolved geopolitical risk on the other.

Why US Stocks Keep Rising While the ASX Lags

The US market continues to push higher, with the S&P 500, Nasdaq and Russell 2000 all showing strong momentum. But the ASX is lagging, and Australian investors need to understand why. This week, I look at the earnings strength driving US markets, the sectors showing leadership, and why the Australian market is struggling to keep pace. For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8zXJzrVK2U 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results What you’ll learn Why the US market can continue rising even while headlines remain uncertain. Why the ASX is underperforming and what that means for Australian investors. How to think about gold, silver and precious metals stocks while they remain in consolidation. Why relying on fundamental logic alone can leave investors holding weak stocks for too long. Where investors should focus if they want to avoid the sectors most exposed to Australia’s competitiveness problem.

This Rally Seems Crazy: Until You See these Money Flows

Middle East risk remains unresolved, energy security is still a serious issue, and many investors are struggling to reconcile the headlines with what markets are actually doing. But the weight of money is making a major statement. In this week’s update, I look at the strength in the NASDAQ, the role of semiconductors, the earnings support behind many US stocks, and the key signals that could trigger the next move in commodities, gold and silver.

Forget Logic, This is the Formula That’s Working

Forget logic. Right now, that may be one of the most important investing lessons. The market is doing what it often does at major turning points: ignoring the headlines and following the money. While the macro backdrop still looks uncertain, price action in the US has remained incredibly strong, and that tells us something important. For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsFdi8xuXMg 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results In this week’s update, I break down: • Why market lows often occur when the news is at its worst• Why trying to make logical sense of every headline can send investors off track• The formula that works better: strong stock selection, money flows and risk management• Why quality stocks can become outstanding opportunities during panic• Where I’m seeing relative strength across the US, Australia and commodities• Why immune stocks matter more than ever in this environment The key is not to predict every outcome. It is to understand your own tolerance to volatility, focus on quality, and respond to what the market is actually doing.

A Significant Pivot Point in Markets: We’re Buying

Markets may be at a significant pivot point and we've been buying for several weeks in the Insiders Club, but that does not mean investors should throw discipline out the window. What matters now is not reacting emotionally to every headline. It is identifying where money is flowing, understanding which businesses are largely immune from the bigger picture risks we cannot control, and then acting with patience and proper risk management.

Australian Energy Threat: Stocks & Sectors to Win & Lose

There is a major threat to Australian investors that most people are still underestimating. In this follow up to Sunday’s market update, I go deeper into why Australia’s energy vulnerability could become a serious drag on parts of the share market, and why investors need to think differently if they want to protect capital and stay positioned for opportunity. For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpSNN345uls 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results I cover: Why Australia is unusually exposed to liquid fuel and supply chain disruption The sectors that could be hit hardest if the situation continues Which stocks and sectors may be more insulated Why broad exposure to the Australian economy may no longer be the safest approach Where I still see genuine opportunity, particularly outside the most vulnerable areas This is not about panic or prediction. It is about probabilities, portfolio weightings, and making sure your money is not sitting in the path of avoidable risk.

The Risk Australian Investors Still Aren’t Pricing In

This week’s market update tackles an issue I believe many Australian investors are still underestimating.Australia is an energy exporter, but we are also heavily dependent on imported fuel. That leaves large parts of the economy exposed in a way that could flow through to company earnings, even if the current conflict eases faster than expected. For the full experience, watch the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkksUxZHgLE 📈 View our scoreboard of results here: www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club/#core_results The key point is not to panic.It is to think clearly about which parts of your portfolio may be vulnerable, which parts may be more immune, and why broad market complacency can become dangerous when conditions change quickly.In this update, I cover: Why Australia is more structurally exposed than many investors realise Why this matters for local earnings risk Why selling everything is usually the wrong response Where I still see stronger opportunity, particularly outside the most exposed areas If you’d like a more structured framework for navigating this kind of environment, that’s exactly what my Insiders Club and Portfolio Analyst memberships are designed to provide. 🔹 Learn more about the Insiders Club (for serious wealth builders)www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/insiders-club 🔹 Learn more about Portfolio Manager (professional fund management)www.specialistshareeducation.com.au/portfolio-manager   Any advice in this video is general advice only.
