Morning Brief

Narrative before the opening bell

Snapshot of what matters before the bell — macro, index levels, and the main narrative driving risk-on / risk-off.

Gold and silver are starting 2026 with strength in premarket trading, rebounding after a year-end reset in the final session of 2025. Early buying reflects fresh positioning as the new trading year begins, with silver leading gains and gold providing confirmation.

Market impact: new-year inflows emerging · dip-buy interest following year-end positioning cleanup · silver leading early momentum · gold stability reinforcing metals strength · China’s first-day implementation of silver export controls tightening supply expectations.

Tesla is entering 2026 with mixed European sales data from December, showing declines in several Southern and Western European markets, while posting record sales in Norway, the region with the highest EV penetration globally.

Impact: regional demand divergence rather than broad EV slowdown · December figures influenced by year-end incentives, policy timing, and market-specific factors · Norway performance reinforcing long-term EV adoption strength · investor focus shifting toward Q1 demand normalization and pricing dynamics.

SpaceX is reportedly preparing a 2026 IPO that could raise more than $25 billion, potentially becoming one of the largest public offerings in history.

Tone: mega-cap catalyst · could reshape tech and aerospace investing · Musk ecosystem boost (TSLA, Starlink, AI).

Bias: Risk-off from Fed tone 🔻

Catalyst: Payrolls & Fed guidance ⚠️
