Ravitaliy/iStock via Getty Images Gold and silver have both delivered strong returns over the past year. After initially lagging, silver prices shot up in late 2025, outpacing gold by a substantial margin. This surge prompted investors to review their precious-metals exposure and assess the similarities – and differences – between the two. Despite gold and silver sitting under the precious metals label, their market structures and behaviours diverge sharply. Gold benefits from a more balanced demand base, deeper liquidity, and materially lower volatility. Silver, with its industrial bias and higher volatility, behaves more cyclically and is more sensitive to broader commodity flows. These distinctions shape how each metal behaves in portfolios: gold consistently offers diversification during stress, supporting its role as a strategic, defensive asset, while silver tends to amplify moves – both up and down – acting more like a high‑beta complement than a substitute. Chart 1: Gold has delivered strong returns, but at a much more consistent pace when compared to silver Price performance of gold and silver spot prices* *Data as of 16 March 2026. Gold prices based on LBMA Gold Price PM (US$/oz); silver based on LBMA Silver Price (US$/oz). (Sources: Bloomberg, World Gold Council) Market structure: Contrasting supply and demand forces Gold’s dispersed demand vs silver’s cyclical sensitivity Gold and silver are often put into the same bucket, but each is characterised by unique attributes and drivers. One key distinction between the two is their end-demand mix. Gold has a well-balanced dual nature, as both a consumer good and an investment asset (Chart 2). Gold is also an integral component to central bank foreign reserves, a trend that has picked up steam in recent years. And while gold investment demand dominates during periods of risk, consumer demand tends to step in during periods of economic growth. Gold’s investment share helps explain why it can behave more like a f...

J Studios/DigitalVision via Getty Images The market is mostly analyzing two stories in isolation. One is the AI infrastructure boom: chips, power, campuses, GPU clouds, AI factories, and multi-hundred billion-dollar capex plans. The other is the quiet stress beginning to show up in private credit: gated vehicles, semi-liquid funds meeting hard redemption limits, widening skepticism around marks, and a general reminder that illiquid assets cannot offer liquid experiences forever. (Source: Bloomberg, TheDailyEconomy ) The more interesting question is what happens if those two stories are not separate. What happens if private credit is not merely adjacent to the AI boom, but part of the financial plumbing enabling it? That is the core thesis. The risk is not that AI infrastructure is imaginary. The risk is that some meaningful share of the buildout may be funded through structures that suppress visible volatility, defer price discovery, and assume capital remains patient. If that assumption breaks, the pressure may not show up first where the underlying assets sit. It may show up where liquidity lives. The hidden transmission channel The intuitive mistake investors make is to think that if an asset class is illiquid, it is insulated. In practice, illiquidity can do the opposite. It can trap stress until investors need cash, at which point they do not sell the assets they would most like to exit. They sell what they can. In this cycle, what they can sell is often the large, liquid public winners that dominate portfolios and indices. (Source: SaaS Capital ) That is how private market fragility can become public market volatility without any dramatic deterioration in the underlying public companies themselves. The chain is simple enough to sound almost obvious once stated. AI infrastructure gets funded privately. Private marks remain smooth because the assets are long-dated, negotiated, and not continuously marked to an open market. Stress emerges somewhere in the system,...

00:01 Speaker A another story you wrote about today. Uh, BMW officially unveiling its new i3 EV. 00:06 Speaker A What did you make of that? And how did you see it sort of compare and contrast with the Tesla Model 3, range, charging, performance? 00:13 Speaker B So BMW's been talking about this. their new their new like specs, their second gen EVs are going to be based on a thing called the Neue Klasse platform. It's a brand brand new platform, uh supposedly more efficient, uh better batteries, uh better driving apparently. Uh, so this car has been sort of been teased for a long time. We finally see it in in sort of production form. 00:32 Speaker B In and basically, and we we have some we have a we have a little chart here, uh, compares very favorably to the Tesla Model uh 3, which is sort of the standard bearer for uh EV sedans. See that that price, the BMW i3 is going to be probably around $55,000. 00:43 Speaker B Not cheap, but, you know, a BMW 3 series is around that that kind of money, right? So, but compare it to the Tesla Model 3 performance and Model 3 premium, both of the all-wheel drive versions because the i3 is all-wheel drive. You see that um pricing not too bad, um but you get a lot more range, 440 miles, 00:57 Speaker B which is a big deal for people from a psychological standpoint. Hey, I can drive this car all week and I have to charge it. I'm not afraid of that. So that's a kind of a big thing. 01:06 Speaker B And I think the car looks uh it looks good. It's not, you know, super aggressive. It looks they almost took it made it a bit conservative, but the inside I think compared to the Tesla, the inside cabin is much nicer. So you have a bit more of luxury there, a bit more premium feel there. And I think it's the kind of a big um rival or or at least competitor for the Model 3.

Blackstone Inc. ’s flagship private credit fund is planning to sell bonds backed by a broad swathe of its $82.5 billion of assets, according to people with knowledge of the matter. BCRED, the world’s largest business development company, is looking to finalize the collateralized loan obligation deal early next week, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. Proceeds will be used to repay some existing debt, they added. The Blackstone fund earlier this month took the unusual step of asking some of its senior leaders to pitch in $150 million to help fund elevated redemption requests rather than cap investor withdrawals like some of its private credit peers. Still, BCRED is a regular CLO issuer, and the latest sale was planned months ago, one of the people said. A representative for Blackstone declined to comment. The transaction highlights an increasingly popular option for BDCs to raise debt from Wall Street investors. Last year, at least three BDCs issued private credit CLOs for the first time, including Apollo Debt Solutions BDC, Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund and Kohlberg & Co LLC . CLOs package up corporate loans into bonds of varying size and risk. The biggest bond in the BCRED deal, rated AAA, is expected to price at an interest rate premium of 1.3 percentage points, the people said. That’s a similar level to deals BCRED issued last year.

JHVEPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Investment Thesis Broadcom ( AVGO ) is no longer a company purely in the semiconductor business. Our investment thesis centers around its evolution into a "digital public utility" by dominating the two most critical bottlenecks in AI, which are ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) design and ultra-high-speed networking. Together with its VMware software, the company is now a comprehensive AI company with both semiconductor networking and subscription software businesses. Therefore, when giants are known for their LLMs and GPUs, Broadcom is providing the underlying infrastructure. This is the reason behind management 's bold guidance of $100 billion revenue in 2027 for just the chips business alone - alongside the "sharp accelerated growth" in other business segments. Therefore, with such positioning in the AI supply chain, every time a giant like Google or Meta wants to enhance its AI products, Broadcom gets paid. With its growing subscription software segment, it hedges against the overcapacity in the chip supply chain when the days come. This is why I am giving it a Buy. The Benefits of Custom Silicon (ASIC) Broadcom's revenue in AI has doubled to reach $8.4 billion in 2026 Q1, in which the custom XPU segment has grown by more than 140%. Its impressive clients include Google, Meta, Anthropic, OpenAI, and others. The question here is why would cash-rich AI companies want to let Broadcom earn from them while they have the capability to do it themselves? The answer can be separated between "physical reality" and "cost of trial and error." First of all, within a modern AI ASIC, the "AI Brain" that AI giants are responsible for designing represents only 30-40% of the silicon area . The remaining 60-70% consists of "infrastructure pipes." It includes critical components like high-speed data lanes, PCIe interfaces, and memory controllers . Therefore, Broadcom owns and specializes in the IPs that are already verified t...

WANAN YOSSINGKUM/iStock via Getty Images Introduction The First Trust NASDAQ Cybersecurity ETF ( CIBR ) tracks the Nasdaq CTA Cybersecurity Index , a liquidity-weighted benchmark of companies in the cybersecurity segment, which falls within the larger technology and industrial sectors. I rate the fund a Buy at $65. Cybersecurity spending is no longer optional for any organization operating in the digital economy, and we are seeing this as a structural part of any enterprise budget that will continue to grow for years to come. The pullback from the 52-week high has improved the entry price in a meaningful way, and CIBR remains the most liquid and widely held vehicle in the category. For investors who want exposure to this theme without picking individual stocks, CIBR is the straightforward answer. About the ETF CIBR launched on July 7, 2015 , and is issued by First Trust. To qualify for the index, any company included has to be classified as a cybersecurity company by the Consumer Technology Association. Any company listed in this index also needs to have a minimum market cap of $250 million. The index weights holdings by underlying liquidity instead of market cap, a meaningful distinction to make for investors. Top Holdings CIBR (First Trust) The fund currently holds roughly $11.09 billion in net assets , and it trades at an average daily volume of approximately 794,000 shares. CIBR has an expense ratio of 0.59%, which is certainly higher than a broad index fund but in my view relatively reasonable for a more targeted sector strategy with 36 holdings. It is important to note that CIBR is the largest dedicated cybersecurity ETF by assets under management, which translates to more institutional coverage and better trading efficiency than any alternative you could find in the category. I will address some of the alternatives and direct comparisons with other ETFs seeking to capture this theme, but for CIBR, these are practical advantages that matter when sizing a real ...

One Reason This Energy Shock Is Not Like The One 15-Years Ago Arend Kapteyn, the global head of economics and strategy research and chief economist at UBS, told clients that one key reason the current Middle East conflict-driven energy shock "is not like 2011-2014" will be the absence of a comparable response from the shale patch, suggesting consumers are more likely to bear the brunt of the pain. Kapteyn noted that, on an inflation-adjusted basis, oil prices in 2011-2014 were actually higher than they are today, yet the U.S. economy absorbed that shock because the shale boom provided a lift to the industrial base. Soaring WTI crude prices at the time spurred oil/gas companies to increase drilling activity, production growth, and energy-sector investment. This helped create a tailwind for the US' manufacturing base and offset some of the drag from higher fuel costs. However, this is where the bullish U.S. economic case starts to look a little shaky. As Kapteyn noted, " The oil sector is much less responsive to prices than a decade ago ." The Trump administration has indicated that the oil price shock is temporary, suggesting shale drilling is unlikely to increase meaningfully or provide much of a tailwind for the manufacturing base. That means this time, the pain from higher energy prices is more likely to hit consumers directly through weaker spending power, with less offset from booming domestic oil investment. The shock at the gas pump begins: We warned: $5 Diesel Means A 35% Jump In Prices For US Consumers Kapteyn continued: A common question is why current oil prices should be a concern for the U.S. economy when prices were substantially higher in 2011-2014 and growth held up well. Over that earlier period, Brent averaged around $110/bbl—close to $145/bbl in today's dollars, roughly 23% above today's spot prices—yet U.S. GDP growth still averaged just over 2%. There are, of course, many differences relative to then : today's labor market is weaker, households a...
