May 18, 2026 - Oil Spikes, Copper Cracks: Is Stagflation Back?
Description
Oil is ripping. Copper is cracking. And markets may be sending a stagflation warning.
In this episode of Market Pulse by Orestes Capital, we break down the cross-asset signals investors cannot ignore: rising energy prices, weakening copper, inflation pressure, growth concerns, and what this divergence may be saying about the next phase of the macro cycle.
Is this just a commodity rotation — or the early warning sign of a more difficult market regime ahead?
We cover what the oil/copper split means for inflation, global growth, rates, equities, and investor positioning.
