GEOPOLITICS

The Explosive Bounce Is Here — And What Comes Next Will Surprise You

April 8, 2026 3 min read By Phoenix Capital Research

The explosive bounce I wrote about is here.

Stocks, precious metals, heck the entire financial system except oil, is ripping higher today on announcements of a two-week cease-fire between the US, Iran and Israel.

What’s truly incredible is that the markets knew this was coming. As I wrote two days ago, high yield credit which typically leads stocks was forecasting a move by the S&P 500 to the mid-6,700s. Two days later, stocks are hitting that level and then some.

I hope this experience has proven profitable for you. I do my best to alert our clients of opportunities in the markets when I see them. This was a BIG one. The entire media and most of the folks on social media were forecasting doom and gloom in regard to the situation in Iran. But my analysis made it clear to me that stocks were setting up for an explosive bounce. And I’ve been pounding the table on that since 3/31/26.

So where do we go from here?

As I’ve been outlining for the last two weeks, inflation is back courtesy of the energy shock from the conflict in Iran. Even if this cease fire holds and the war is officially over, inflation will persist for several months going forward.

And the markets know it.

The ratio between Gold and the S&P 500 remains in a clear uptrend. This signals that despite the pull-back in precious metals, gold will continue to outperform stocks going forward.

Similarly, the ratio between Silver and Gold is breaking out to the upside from a 6-week consolidation period. Typically, during periods of higher inflation silver outperforms gold by a wide margin. That is proving to the case now.

Put simply, the markets are indicating another round of inflation is coming shortly. The time to position for this is now before it hits.

On that note, we just published a Special Investment Report concerning FIVE secret investments you can use profit from the next major bull run in precious metals miners.

The report is titled Survive the Inflationary Storm. And it explains my top precious metals plays, including their names, their symbols, and the resources they own. These are HIGH OCTANE positions that rallied 75%, 140%, 150%, 180%, 280% and an incredible 574% in 2025! And I wouldn’t be surprised to see them repeat this performance in 2026.

Normally I’d charge $499 for this report as a standalone item, but in light of what is unfolding today, we are making just 100 copies available to the public.
