Liberty and Finance, Released on 4/8/26

Markets are reacting as if geopolitical tensions are fading—but according to Lobo Tiggre, that couldn’t be further from reality. Tiggre breaks down why the damage from the conflict is already “baked in” and why oil, gold, and uranium are sending mixed signals. He explains why uranium may be the clearest long-term winner as nations scramble for energy independence. Lobo also reveals how contrarian investors can take advantage of market overreactions and volatility. Finally, he shares why he believes the next major move in gold and silver is still higher—and how he’s positioning for it.
