The headline indexes are hitting all-time highs, so why does it feel so difficult to find value? In this episode of INN Conversation, host Georgia Williams sits down with Steve Neamtz, president of Yorkville America Equities, to dissect the uncomfortable truth behind the S&P 500's record run. 

Neamtz argues that the passive investing era is ending, replaced by a period where "intentional exposure" matters more than ever. He makes a compelling, data-driven case for why institutional capital is mispricing defense and domestic energy, and reveals the physical infrastructure layer of the artificial intelligence boom that most retail investors are completely missing.

Peter Grandich of Peter Grandich & Co. weighs in on recent gold and silver price declines, saying that after previously exiting all of his mining stock positions except one, he's now ready to start buying back into the sector.

"In the last couple of days I have suggested that we're finally seeing the signs of a classic washout, heavy correction, in a mega bull market," he said. "I think all the measures now that we would want to start to see come together for the end of this decline are before us."

Ronald-Peter Stoeferle of Incrementum shares takeaways from the latest "In Gold We Trust" report, emphasizing that gold is currently in a bull market consolidation phase. He believes the metal is in the midst of a "golden decade" that will ultimately take it to US$8,900 per ounce.

"If we have a look at the relative valuation on gold, I think this gold bull market is standing on granite, not on sand. So I think on a relative basis this is a very, very healthy bull market," he explained.

Edward Sterck shares insights on the World Platinum Investment Council's latest quarterly report, explaining that although Q1 brought the sector's first surplus in six quarters, the platinum market is still expected to be in deficit this year.

"Reflecting on what happened in Q1, and those ETF and exchange stock outflows, we're expecting investment to return and recoup some of those Q1 losses," he said. "That's what results in the forecast for a deficit of about 300,000 ounces in 2026."

Charles Lester, data manager at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, explains how the global electric vehicle (EV) market has entered a more fragmented phase in 2026 as regional demand trends sharply diverge. While Europe's EV market is accelerating on the back of subsidies, high fuel prices and tightening emissions rules, China and North America are losing momentum amid subsidy changes, tariffs and broader economic uncertainty.

In the interview, Lester breaks down the latest EV sales data and the forces reshaping the energy transition. He explains why China's domestic EV sales have fallen 17 percent year-on-year, how Europe posted a surprise 30 percent surge in March and April and why Chinese automakers exported more than 400,000 EVs in April alone as they expanded aggressively into diverse markets.

Lester also discusses the impact of Middle East tensions on fuel prices, Canada's quota-based approach to Chinese EV imports and why lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries continue gaining ground in the global battery chemistry race.

Dr. Stephen Leeb of Leeb Capital Management shares his outlook for gold, explaining how it could get to US$18,000 per ounce. 

"I would place us nowhere near the top," he said during the interview. 

"Basically I would say that viewing it as a cycle is probably a mistake at this point — gold's high point might not never really be defined, because I think at the end of this period that we're in, you're going to find gold at the center of the world's monetary system."

Justin Huhn of Uranium Insider shares his forecast for the uranium sector, weighing in on supply, demand and prices. While the market is currently in a pullback, he believes the long-term outlook remains strong — and in the short term, he sees uranium as "very tradable."

"It can be difficult to put money to work when the sector has pulled back, when the volatility's high, when sentiment is very, very poor," Huhn acknowledged. "(But) that's the time when you actually want to be buying."

David Hunter of Contrarian Macro Advisors outlines his short- and long-term targets for gold, silver and oil, as well as major indexes. In his view, the coming months will bring a melt-up phase that takes all of them much higher — but then a "global bust" will follow.

Chris Temple of the National Investor shares his outlook for the gold price, explaining why it could still fall as low as US$3,500 per ounce, as well as what will trigger the yellow metal's next leg higher.

"Bottom line — in my view, what causes gold to turn around is when the Fed has to stop pretending that it cares about inflation, that it can do a darn thing about it, and just starts going nutso again so we don't all go down the deflationary drain," he said.

Joe Cavatoni of the World Gold Council discusses gold's price activity since the Iran war began, saying the yellow metal's strength is a positive signal for its long-term trajectory. He also shares what factors he's watching most closely now.

"I'm watching two things. I'm watching for the increased vol that continues to persist — even though it might look like it's calmer today, it's still lurking there," Cavatoni said. "And I also think that I'm watching the big signals around the central banks on a global scale — when are they going to be needing to respond to conditions that are being impacted by this inflationary creep back into the system."

Andy Hoese of Finding Value Finance is bullish on the broader commodities sector, including gold and silver, but right now he's most interested in oil. In particular, he sees oil as one of the best opportunities for investors right now.

"That's why I'm so excited about energy and why I'm so bullish on energy, and maybe not so much on metals and the gold- and silver-mining companies," he said. "It's because what interest rates are doing, the situation that we're in with the Middle East and what I'm seeing in some of these ratio charts is suggesting that we could see an outperformance of energy vs. a lot of these other areas."

Alex Ebkarian of Allegiance Gold shares his outlook for gold and silver prices, saying that while both are trading lower after big runs earlier this year, it's key to maintain a long-term approach to owning precious metals.
