Global commodities prices are on track to fall to their lowest level in six years by 2026, as weaker demand, a widening oil surplus and policy uncertainty continue to weigh on markets, according to the World Bank.

In 2025, the oil glut is projected to expand 65 percent above its last peak in 2020 as electric and hybrid vehicles reduce fuel consumption and oil demand flattens in China, as per the organization’s latest Commodity Markets Outlook.

The World Bank sees global energy prices falling sharply as a result.

Brent crude is forecast to slide from an average of US$68 per barrel in 2025 to US$60 in 2026, marking the lowest level in five years. Overall, energy prices are seen dropping by 12 percent this year and an additional 10 percent next year.

Despite the declines, commodities prices remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels. The World Bank estimates 2025 prices will still average 23 percent higher than in 2019, and 2026 levels about 14 percent above pre-COVID benchmarks, reflecting structural shifts such as climate impact, supply chain realignment and new industrial demand.

Food markets are also showing signs of easing. Global food prices are forecast to fall in 2025 and 2026, aided by improved harvests and lower shipping costs. However, fertilizer costs are expected to surge this year before easing in 2026, driven by high input prices and trade restrictions that could strain farm profitability and threaten crop yields.

Precious metals, by contrast, are defying the broader trend.

Gold and silver prices have reached record highs in 2025, primarily buoyed by central bank purchases, investor demand for safe-haven assets and ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty.

The gold price is expected to rise 42 percent this year and another 5 percent in 2026, nearly doubling its 2015 to 2019 average. Meanwhile, silver is projected to increase 34 percent this year and 8 percent next year.

While the downturn in energy prices, as well as lower prices for commodities like wheat and rice, is providing some relief to inflation-hit economies, the World Bank warns the decline may be temporary.

“Commodity markets are helping to stabilize the global economy,” said Indermit Gill, the World Bank Group’s chief economist and senior vice president for development economics, in a Wednesday (October 29) release. “Falling energy prices have contributed to the decline in global consumer-price inflation. But this respite will not last. Governments should use it to get their fiscal house in order, make economies business-ready, and accelerate trade and investment.”

The report also notes that the commodities outlook remains vulnerable to shifting global conditions. Prolonged trade disputes, sluggish economic growth or an unexpected surge in OPEC+ oil supply could drag prices further down. Conversely, heightened geopolitical tensions, new sanctions or severe climate disruptions could drive them back up.

Beyond short-term price dynamics, the report’s ‘special focus’ section for this year examines whether renewed global interest in managing supply and demand through commodities pacts could stabilize markets.

Drawing on a century of experience with international commodities agreements (ICAs), the World Bank found that most efforts like this ultimately failed. In the 20th century, producer and consumer nations attempted to stabilize prices through mechanisms involving inventory controls, trade quotas and price-setting schemes for commodities.

While some early efforts achieved temporary price stability, most collapsed due to weak coordination and changing demand patterns. Even the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) — the longest-lasting such arrangement — has faced increasing challenges from new energy sources and shifting consumer behavior.

“OPEC’s longevity stands out among other ICAs,” the report states, noting that its survival has depended on its ability to adjust production quotas, expand alliances through OPEC+ and engage with consumer nations through dialogue.

Still, the World Bank cautions that OPEC faces growing headwinds from the global transition toward cleaner energy, which could usher in a period of stagnant or declining oil demand.

Gold Price Surge Hits $3,385 Amid Trade Tensions

The gold price surge continued on April 21, 2025, as gold hit a record high of $3,385 per ounce. This milestone came amid a weakening U.S. dollar and renewed global trade tensions. Investors are increasingly turning to gold as a safe-haven asset, signaling market uncertainty and shifting investment strategies.

Gold Price Increase Driven by Dollar Weakness

The U.S. dollar index fell sharply, hitting its lowest level since January 2024. A weaker dollar typically boosts gold prices, as it makes the metal more attractive to international buyers. This contributed significantly to the ongoing gold price surge seen in recent weeks.

In addition, economic data indicating slower growth in key global markets has prompted investors to reduce their exposure to riskier assets. Gold’s long-standing reputation as a hedge against economic uncertainty has once again proven true.

Trade Tensions Fuel Demand for Safe-Haven Assets

Ongoing trade friction between major economies—particularly the U.S. and China—has triggered market anxiety. Announcements related to new tariffs and supply chain risks are further motivating the shift from equities to gold. This environment is ideal for a gold price surge to gain momentum.

Analysts Predict Continued Gold Price Growth

Market analysts suggest that the upward trend is far from over. If inflation persists and interest rates remain steady or fall, the gold price could climb even higher. Some predict that the next psychological barrier of $3,500 per ounce may soon be tested.

As the global economic landscape continues to evolve, gold is expected to remain a central pillar in investor portfolios. Whether as a hedge against inflation or a response to geopolitical unrest, the gold price surge is being closely monitored by financial experts.

BNB Price Surge Leads Crypto Gains as Bitcoin Climbs

The BNB price surge on April 21, 2025, stole the spotlight as Binance Coin jumped over 3.2% to cross the $600 mark. This move came as Bitcoin soared past $87,000, reigniting investor interest in altcoins. The bullish wave didn’t stop with BNB—SOL and XRP also made strong moves, reflecting a positive trend across the cryptocurrency market.

BNB Price Surge Driven by Token Burn and Momentum

Fueling the BNB price surge was Binance’s recent $1 billion token burn, which reduced the circulating supply. Additionally, increased trading volumes and renewed faith in Binance’s ecosystem helped BNB regain upward momentum. Investors are optimistic that Binance’s expansion and focus on compliance could drive long-term growth.

SOL Rally and XRP Breakout Add to Market Optimism

Solana (SOL) saw a 10.2% rally, breaking above the $135 resistance level with strong volume and technical confirmation. XRP, on the other hand, climbed past $2.10, setting the stage for a potential breakout above $2.15. These moves indicate bullish setups that are gaining attention from both traders and long-term holders.

Bitcoin Reinforces Its Role as Digital Gold

Bitcoin’s rise above $87,000 reflects renewed demand for a digital safe-haven. With increasing global economic uncertainty and inflation concerns, many investors view Bitcoin as “digital gold.” This sentiment is spilling over into altcoins, triggering the current crypto rally.

Conclusion and Market Outlook

The BNB price surge highlights growing investor confidence in altcoins. Alongside Bitcoin’s strength, tokens like SOL and XRP are enjoying increased attention. If this trend continues, more gains could be ahead for altcoin markets. Investors should monitor resistance levels and trading volumes closely for signs of sustained momentum.

Buy Bitcoin Under $100K Before The Next Bull Run

The opportunity to buy Bitcoin under $100K may not last much longer. On April 21, 2025, Bitcoin (BTC) traded just below the $100,000 mark, a price level many analysts believe could be the last stop before a massive new rally begins. With institutional adoption rising and macroeconomic pressures easing, the case for long-term BTC growth is strengthening.

Why Now Might Be the Time to Buy Bitcoin Under $100K

Market experts point to several factors fueling the bullish sentiment. Firstly, Bitcoin’s halving event earlier this year significantly reduced block rewards, cutting daily supply by half. Historically, halving events have preceded major bull runs. Secondly, growing interest from ETFs and institutional players is creating steady buying pressure. Lastly, declining inflation and improved global liquidity conditions are encouraging investment in risk assets like Bitcoin.

According to Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan, “It’s not too late to buy Bitcoin under $100K. This could be one of the last best opportunities before we see a surge well beyond six figures.”

Long-Term Outlook for BTC Investors

Looking ahead, many analysts predict that Bitcoin could exceed $150,000 by the end of the year. While this isn’t guaranteed, trends in institutional adoption, limited supply, and rising use cases for Bitcoin suggest that prices may continue climbing.

Although short-term volatility persists, long-term investors remain focused on fundamentals. If history repeats itself, buying Bitcoin at sub-$100K levels may prove to be a decision rewarded in the coming cycle.

Final Thoughts

If you’ve been on the sidelines, now could be your moment to enter the market. The chance to buy Bitcoin under $100K might not last much longer. As always, do your research and consider your financial goals before investing.

Trump’s Fed Criticism Sparks Investor Concerns

The recent spotlight on Trump’s Fed Criticism has sparked unease among investors and financial analysts alike. President Donald Trump’s repeated public attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell have amplified concerns over the central bank’s independence. As a result, markets have reacted with volatility, and investor sentiment has taken a noticeable hit.

Market Reactions to Political Pressure

Wall Street’s response to Trump’s Fed Criticism was swift. Major stock indices, including the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, posted losses amid uncertainty over future monetary policy decisions. Investors fear that political attempts to sway the Federal Reserve’s agenda may undermine its objectivity. If monetary policy is dictated by short-term political goals rather than long-term economic data, the implications could be severe for inflation, interest rates, and overall economic health.

Why Federal Reserve Independence Matters

One of the cornerstones of a stable economy is a politically neutral central bank. Trump’s Fed Criticism has called that neutrality into question. The Federal Reserve must be able to act without external pressure to maintain credibility in the eyes of global markets. Political interference could compromise its ability to control inflation or manage unemployment rates effectively.

Investor Sentiment and Future Outlook

Investor confidence remains fragile. Many market participants have shifted assets into safer investments such as gold and U.S. treasuries, seeking shelter from potential turmoil. Economic advisors stress the importance of maintaining clear, data-driven policy guidance, especially as the U.S. navigates ongoing trade issues and inflation concerns.

In the coming weeks, the Federal Reserve’s actions will be closely watched. Should Trump’s Fed Criticism intensify, it could further erode market stability and investor trust in U.S. monetary policy.

Oil Prices Rebound After Trump’s Criticism of Fed Chair Powell

On April 22, 2025, oil prices rebound experienced a modest rebound following a significant drop the previous day. The initial decline was triggered by President Donald Trump’s renewed criticism of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, which unsettled financial markets and raised concerns about the central bank’s independence.

Market Reaction to Political Commentary

President Trump’s comments on Monday intensified investor fears regarding the Federal Reserve’s autonomy in setting monetary policy. The criticism led to a broad sell-off in equities and commodities, with oil prices bearing the brunt of the market’s anxiety.

Short-Covering Leads to Price Recovery

Despite the initial plunge, oil prices rebound edged higher on Tuesday as investors engaged in short-covering. Brent crude futures rose 0.5% to $66.62 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude for May delivery increased by 1% to $63.73 per barrel. The more actively traded WTI June contract also gained 0.7% to $62.84 per barrel.

Ongoing Economic Concerns

Market participants remain cautious amid ongoing fears of a potential recession linked to U.S. tariff policies and concerns over Federal Reserve independence. These factors have increased worries about the U.S. economy and crude demand. Additionally, progress in U.S.-Iran nuclear deal talks has eased supply concerns, potentially impacting oil prices further.

As the situation evolves, investors will closely monitor geopolitical developments and central bank communications to assess the potential long-term impacts on the energy markets.

The American cattle ranching industry is blasting President Donald Trump’s proposal to purchase beef from Argentina in an effort to lower supermarket beef prices.

“This plan only creates chaos at a critical time of the year for American cattle producers, while doing nothing to lower grocery store prices,” Colin Woodall, CEO of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, said in a statement Monday.

Wyoming-based cattle operation Meriwether Farms addressed Trump directly in a social media post Monday.

“We love you and support you — but your suggestion to buy beef from Argentina to stabilize beef prices would be an absolute betrayal to the American cattle rancher,” the farm wrote on X.

By midday Tuesday, the post had already received 4 million views. A representative for Meriwether Farms did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump floated purchasing beef from the South American nation Sunday aboard Air Force One to push down U.S. beef prices by increasing the overall supply.

‘We would buy some beef from Argentina,’ he told reporters, ‘If we do that, that will bring our beef prices down.’

Beef prices have hit record highs this year, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, fueled in part by depleted herd counts and steady demand from U.S. consumers.
