In 2025, the US dollar will decline by 10%, and precious metals will surge accordingly. As we enter 2026, this wave will continue to push higher.

The logical chain is quite clear: the Federal Reserve continues to cut interest rates → the US dollar comes under pressure and weakens → commodity prices soar → inflation expectations re-emerge → central bank policies once again face difficulties. Once this cycle starts, it’s hard to break.

But the real risk isn’t in the trend itself, but in a sudden market reversal. Silver prices could spike to levels that factories find hard to bear, and the emergence of substitutes is only a matter of time; if the dollar depreciates to a point that the Fed can’t sit still, a hawkish policy shift could instantly change expectations.

The key themes for 2026 are already foreseeable: the phase of extreme valuation correction. Assets that have risen too much in the early stage face re-pricing pressure, while severely undervalued assets at the bottom may rebound. Markets often hide certainty amid chaos, but the premise is that you don’t follow the herd or become impatient.

Continuous building and day-by-day accumulation are more valuable than ever. The more volatile the market, the more it tests execution. In 2026, rather than guessing the top or bottom, it’s better to follow those who are truly doing real work.

Once the US dollar drops 10%, they start hyping up precious metals skyrocketing. I've heard this spiel too many times. Silver rises to the point where factories can't handle it and has to be sold off. When the Federal Reserve shifts to a hawkish stance, everything collapses. This repeated cycle is just messing with our principal. Instead of constantly chasing some logical chain, it's better to first understand your own strength. Don't let stories fool you into being crippled.

Hmm, after the Federal Reserve's series of measures, it's indeed impossible to escape this cycle. Wait, is the turning point when silver rises to a level that factory consumption can't handle? What does that mean? How long will it take for substitutes to catch up? Don't follow the trend, don't be impatient. It's easy to say, but hard to do. Those who accumulate day after day are the ones who will survive in the end. Stop guessing the bottom blindly; it's more stable to follow those with strength. In 2026, this wave of recovery—let's see who can withstand the fluctuations.

Hmm... When the US dollar drops 10%, precious metals take off. This cycle is indeed hard to break. The question is, who can really hold on until the reversal moment? Silver skyrocketed to the point factories can't keep up. Will a substitute really appear? It feels like this expectation has also been overhyped. Don't follow the trend or be impatient... It's easy to say, but execution is truly difficult. Not guessing the top or bottom, but focusing on doing solid work—there's nothing wrong with that. But where can we find such people now? By 2026, it will depend on who can hold up. I'm increasingly doubting my own resolve.

Complaining for a year with the same logic, really can confuse people. Dollar depreciation, precious metals rise, and then? They immediately dump the market, I've seen it too many times. Instead of accumulating day after day, it's better to buy the dip during that reverse wave—this is the real opportunity to make money. Wait, factories can't handle the silver prices? What if substitutes really arrive, what about the holdings? Not following the trend and staying calm sounds easy, but how can you be willing to miss that wave?

The Federal Reserve cuts interest rates, gold and silver soar, but dare to go all in? A sudden policy U-turn and everything is ruined. Extreme valuation repairs sound great, but actually not following the trend is much harder... This market tests your mentality. Silver skyrocketed, factories can't keep up, substitutes can appear at any time, and the rules of the game change whenever they want. Instead of blindly guessing the top or bottom, it's better to follow those who are truly capable of executing, do less bragging and more work. Once this cycle shifts, those with slow reactions will be completely caught off guard, it's frightening.

The US dollar is falling so sharply, precious metals are taking off... But if the Federal Reserve really can't sit still, they might turn around at any moment, and then it will be another bloodbath. Everyone is chasing the hot spots now, just waiting to see who can survive until the end. I'm a bit scared, it feels like everyone is betting on the same direction. Not following the trend is easy to say, but how many can really do it... The bottom assets are actually interesting, slowly picking them up. 2026 will be like this; instead of guessing ups and downs, it's better to follow those with strength. Silver prices are really crazy; it feels like something might go wrong. Once the Federal Reserve shifts its stance, it’s game over, so risk diversification is still necessary. Stay calm and accumulate; this is the true test of mental strength. The logic is clear, but the market's counter-moves hit right in the heart.

The US dollar plummeted while precious metals surged wildly; this wave is indeed quite intense. That said, the real profit-makers are not those who follow the trend, but those who can hold their mindset. --- Silver soared to a level that factory consumption can't keep up with? Then substitutes will inevitably come, and this logic makes perfect sense. --- We still need to watch 2026; instead of guessing the top every day, it's better to honestly accumulate. The bigger the volatility, the more it tests human nature. --- The Federal Reserve won't sit still and will definitely turn hawkish; expectations will flip instantly when that happens. That's why you can't just follow the trend recklessly. --- Extreme valuations will eventually need correction; the key is whether you can wait for that moment. Staying calm is really hard to do. --- Although the logical chain is clear, no one can avoid market reversals; it still depends on execution to prove true capability.
