NEWS & INSIGHTS
July 31, 2026What Midterm Election Years Have Historically Meant for Investors Election years often bring increased attention to Washington, but for investors, market history may be more important than political headlines. Midterm election years have historically introduced more uncertainty into the financial markets. Debates over government spending, fiscal policy, and regulatory priorities can create short-term volatility as investors react to changing expectations. While market swings may be uncomfortable, they have also been a recurring part of the investment cycle. Why Volatility Often Increases Markets generally prefer stability. During midterm election years, uncertainty surrounding future policy decisions can lead to increased price fluctuations as investors evaluate possible economic outcomes. Historically, midterm years have experienced larger market pullbacks and lower average annual returns than other years within the four-year presidential cycle. Although every election cycle is different, this pattern has appeared consistently over several decades. History Shows a Different Story After Elections While the months leading up to midterm elections have often been volatile, history has also shown that markets frequently recover once election uncertainty subsides. As investors gain greater clarity on the political landscape, attention tends to shift back toward the fundamentals that drive long-term market performance, including: Corporate earnings Economic growth Interest rate policy Business investment Consumer spending Historically, the year following a midterm election has delivered some of the strongest average stock market returns within the presidential cycle. While past performance never guarantees future results, this trend illustrates how markets often respond positively once uncertainty begins to fade. Stay Focused on Long-Term Goals Attempting to predict election outcomes or make investment decisions based solely on political events can be difficult and may lead to emotional decisions. Instead, many long-term investors remain focused on maintaining diversified portfolios, reviewing their financial plans, and taking advantage of opportunities that can emerge during periods of market volatility. Every election cycle brings uncertainty, but history suggests that disciplined investing and maintaining a long-term perspective have often proven more valuable than reacting to short-term political headlines. Past performance does not guarantee future results. All investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.

July 30, 2026  Where America’s Natural Gas Is Produced—and Why It Matters Natural gas plays a vital role in powering homes, businesses, and industries across the United States. While production occurs in many states, a relatively small number of regions account for the majority of the nation’s natural gas output. Texas remains the country’s largest natural gas producer, supported by prolific energy basins such as the Permian. Other major producing states include Pennsylvania, Louisiana, West Virginia, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. Together, these regions supply a significant share of the natural gas used throughout the United States and exported to global markets. The rapid growth of domestic production over the past two decades has been driven by advances in drilling technology, including horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. These innovations have unlocked previously inaccessible reserves, helping the United States become one of the world’s leading natural gas producers. Natural gas is used for electricity generation, residential heating, manufacturing, and as a key fuel source for many industrial processes. It also supports the growing liquefied natural gas (LNG) export market, making U.S. production increasingly important to global energy supplies. For investors, understanding where energy production is concentrated provides valuable insight into regional economic activity, infrastructure investment, employment trends, and the broader energy sector. While commodity prices and production levels can fluctuate with market conditions, natural gas continues to play an important role in the nation’s energy landscape. As energy demand evolves and new technologies emerge, the geographic distribution of natural gas production will remain an important factor influencing both domestic markets and the global economy.

July 24, 2026Gold vs. Silver: Understanding How Precious Metals Perform During Market Downturns                                             When markets become volatile, many investors turn to precious metals as a way to diversify their portfolios. While gold and silver are often grouped together, their performance during economic downturns has historically been quite different. Gold has long been viewed as a traditional safe-haven asset. During periods of economic uncertainty, investors often seek the stability gold can provide, which has helped the metal hold its value—or even appreciate—during some market declines. Silver, however, tends to follow a different path. Because it serves both as an investment asset and an industrial metal, its price is influenced not only by investor sentiment but also by demand from industries such as electronics, renewable energy, and manufacturing. As a result, silver has historically experienced larger price swings than gold during recessions and periods of market stress. History provides several examples of these differences. During the 2008 financial crisis, gold posted a modest gain while silver declined sharply. As the economy recovered, however, silver rebounded much more aggressively, highlighting its tendency toward higher volatility in both directions. More recently, strong investor demand and industrial use contributed to silver significantly outperforming gold during 2025, further illustrating its potential for larger gains during favorable market conditions. For investors, the comparison isn’t necessarily about choosing one metal over the other. Gold may offer greater stability during uncertain periods, while silver can provide additional growth potential when economic conditions improve. Understanding the unique characteristics of each can help investors determine how precious metals may fit within a broader, diversified investment strategy. As with any investment, decisions should be based on individual financial goals, risk tolerance, and long-term objectives. Precious metals can play different roles within a portfolio, and diversification remains an important component of managing market uncertainty.
