Meanwhile hard-asset names like
$VG and
$IPI have been quietly acting like the market already knew what was coming. Fertilizer, commodities, real assets — that’s where money rotates when purchasing power starts getting smoked and rate-cut fantasies fade.
A lot of traders kept chasing crowded AI momentum while inflation-sensitive plays kept building higher lows. Now CPI fears are back on the tape, bond yields are twitching higher, and suddenly these “boring” names don’t look so boring anymore.
Watch the rotation carefully. When inflation sticks around longer than expected, the market usually rewards producers before consumers.
