Craig Hemke – Silver Breakout, Mining Stock Rotation, and Copper’s Tariff Spike

Craig Hemke, Founder and Editor of TF Metals Report, joins us for a wide-ranging discussion on precious and base metals, recorded Monday, July 14th.

Silver has broken out above multi-year resistance, with junior silver stocks leading the charge. Craig walks through what’s fueling this breakout, including speculative flows, tariff impacts, and positioning in the COMEX market.

We also discuss:

• Why silver is vastly outperforming gold and how the gold-silver ratio is driving sentiment
  
  
• How mining stocks are reacting, with smaller stocks outperforming majors like Agnico and Newmont
  
  
• Copper’s sharp move higher on new U.S. tariff announcements, and why Trump’s unpredictable stance is fueling volatility
  
  
• A cautionary take on silver hype, commercial short positions, and how bull markets typically unfold
  
  
• Inflation data, options expiry, and what to watch heading into the end of the week
  
  

Craig shares insights from decades of market experience—balancing optimism with realism—as he highlights where the real opportunity may lie for precious metals investors in the second half of 2025.
