Commentary dated 29 January 2026 notes that commodities are currently, relative to equities, unusually "cheap." The piece observes that interest in commodities as an investment tends to rise in cycles and highlights a view that gold may act as a leading indicator for a broader commodities bull market: "gold functions as a leading indicator of an upcoming commodities bull market." The argument underscores that renewed strength in gold could presage gains across other commodity sectors, though the commentary frames this as an observed market opinion rather than a forecast. Investors are advised to monitor gold price behaviour as a potential early signal of shifting commodity trends. #commodities #gold #stocks #markets #FiatNews

Rents in the Czech Republic fell 1.2% quarter-on-quarter to an average of 332 CZK per square metre at the end of last year, compared with the third quarter. The decline reflects weaker demand heading into year-end, a period that traditionally sees lower activity in the rental market. The reported figure is an average across the country and captures the short-term movement between Q3 and Q4. Analysts cite the usual seasonal slowdown as the immediate cause of the drop, rather than a structural shift in pricing. Market watchers will monitor whether this quarter-on-quarter dip persists into the new year or rebounds with renewed demand as seasonal effects fade. #CzechRepublic #RealEstate #Rents #FiatNews
