The State Street SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF is rated a buy below $130, driven by surging AI-driven metals demand and fiat currency weakness. AI infrastructure spending, forecast to reach $2.52 trillion in 2026, is fueling a supercycle in precious, nonferrous, and ferrous metals. Gold and silver have dramatically outperformed fiat currencies, signaling declining purchasing power and supporting higher metal prices.

'Stayin' Alive' In 2026 With The Cohen & Steers Closed-End Opportunity Fund — Positive

CNS   Seeking Alpha — January 27, 2026

"Stayin' Alive" worked for John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever" and it's a worthy investment goal for me, given the economic, financial, and geopolitical risks we face in 2026. Finding a single investment that combines an attractive, well-covered yield, solid multi-year total returns, quality management, and significant diversification is not easy. But Cohen & Steers' Closed End Opportunity Fund comes really close to filling the bill; I've described it previously as an "instant Income Factory"

Capital One Financial beat Q4 revenue expectations, driven by robust credit card lending and low default rates. COF's $5.15B Brex acquisition strengthens its Fintech capabilities and positions it for growth in corporate payments and high-margin services.
