Looking ahead to 2026, don't be surprised if major financial assets take a significant hit. The narrative usually plays out the same way—whatever's burning hottest gets hit first. Right now that means precious metals like gold and silver are likely candidates for early weakness. Then the equities market could follow suit, though the real pressure probably won't kick in until we hit the fall season. Worth keeping an eye on these cycles.

The old trick of precious metals falling first is back again, saying the same thing every year...

Will gold and silver fall in 2026? We'll see then, anyway, someone always calls for a crash every year.

Gold and silver take the hit first, autumn is the real harvester... This saying is the same every time, huh.

Gold and silver will crash first? I've heard this argument too many times, every year they say it and every year it doesn't happen.
Wait, is it true that autumn 2026 is the main event? Then those stocking up on gold now better be careful.
I'm half skeptical about this cycle theory; it seems like every prediction can find reasons to justify itself.
Once again, precious metals are leading the way... but I feel like this time it might go the other way.
Speaking of which, gold prices are so high right now, can they really still fall? I find it a bit hard to understand.
