The 2026 commodity market is directly corelated to equity market


The 2026 commodity market is characterized by structural divergence rather than a synchronized Supercycle, with performance heavily fragmented between sectors. The ongoing "dislocation" continues, where traditional correlations break down, and markets are driven by geopolitical risks, supply-demand imbalances, and the energy transition. 

Here is the outlook for 2026 based on market projections:

1. Precious Metals: Continued Safe-Haven Strength 

  • Gold: Remains a top pick for 2026, driven by central bank purchases, geopolitical instability, and anticipation of lower US real interest rates. While it saw a historic rally in 2025, it is expected to remain well-supported, with potential for further gains due to "safe-haven" demand.
  • Silver: Expected to see high volatility with potential for further, though perhaps more moderate, upside in 2026, driven by strong industrial demand from the solar and EV sectors and tight, inelastic supply. 

2. Energy: Supply Surpluses and Moderate Pricing

  • Crude Oil: Faces a "bearish tail-risk" due to non-OPEC supply (US, Guyana, Brazil) growing faster than global demand, with a potential for a surplus leading to prices falling from 2025 levels. Brent is forecast to average around $58-$60 in 2026, as the market navigates a, glut.
  • Natural Gas: Highly volatile, with US prices potentially under pressure due to, strong, supply. However, European and Asian markets may see, localized, price spikes driven by infrastructure, constraints. 

3. Industrial Metals: Green Transition Drives Demand 

  • Copper: Poised for strength, driven by persistent supply constraints and increasing demand for electrification, AI, and data center expansion.
  • Aluminum: Expected to see price support from supply disruptions in Oceania and rising energy costs, with US tariffs tightening availability. 

4. Agricultural Commodities: Normalization and Stability 

  • Outlook: Generally, agricultural markets are entering a period of, relative, stability after, the, volatility of, the, early, 2020s, with, forecasts, for, softer, or, flat, prices.
  • Trends: Record production of, grains, and oilseeds, is, expected, to, keep, prices, under, pressure. However, key agricultural inputs like fertilizers may see price, increases. 

Key Trends Shaping 2026

  • Geopolitical Dislocation: The fragmentation of global trade and rising geopolitical tensions are creating supply constraints and "strategic asset" demand for certain commodities.
  • Policy-Driven Volatility: Continued, US, trade, policies, (tariffs), and, Federal, Reserve, rate, actions, are, driving, price, volatility.
  • Energy Transition: Continued, investment, in, renewable, energy, and, green, technologies, is, driving, long-term, demand, for, critical, minerals.
  • Weaker Dollar: A weaker, US, dollar, is, expected, to,, boost, demand, for, commodities, that, are, denominated, in, that, currency. 

Overall, the 2026, commodity, market, is, expected, to, be, a, "stock-picker's" market, with, a, focus, on, specific, opportunities, rather, than, broad-based, gains.
