TWIFO 484: Equity Corrections and Silver Stampedes

Is the early 2024 equity rally finally facing a reality check? Join Mark Longo and Kevin Green, Senior Markets Correspondent at Schwab Network, as they break down a wild week in the futures options markets.

In this episode, we dive into: Equities: Is the recent pullback a healthy correction or the start of something deeper?

Plus, a look at the carnage in small caps and concerning trends in commercial real estate. Metals: We recap the "blow-off top" in Silver. With implied volatility hitting near triple digits, is the stampede over, or are traders just reloading for the next run? Kevin shares his boots-on-the-ground experience from the physical silver market. Agriculture: Soybeans are back on the menu!
