2-2-26 Rotation, Volatility, and Commodities Risk | Before the Bell

Markets delivered plenty of action Friday. The S&P 500 briefly broke below its 20-DMA but reversed higher, signaling that the broader uptrend remains intact despite rising volatility. Internally, markets continue to rotate—shifting between mega-cap growth and value—while staples have pushed toward overbought levels and technology has become increasingly oversold. We also explain the sharp moves in silver, gold, and oil. Commodity markets are driven by heavily leveraged futures positioning, and Friday's decline reflected an unwinding of leverage—not a fundamental shock. With margin requirements rising across precious metals, volatility is likely to remain elevated, reinforcing why disciplined risk management, rebalancing, and profit-taking matter—especially in commodities.
