Copley Financial Group, Inc's Market Update - February 2026

In this market update, we take a hard look at the growing disconnect between economic data and market valuations, and why that gap matters more than ever for investors. While headline numbers continue to paint a mixed picture, asset prices are signaling something very different. This tension has pushed the stock market to a pivotal point, where small shifts in sentiment, policy, or earnings expectations could have outsized consequences.

We also discuss the nomination of Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve Chair and what that could mean for the economy, interest rates, and market confidence. Leadership at the Fed shapes more than just monetary policy. It influences expectations, liquidity, and how investors interpret risk in an already fragile environment.

Another key topic in this update is the gold and silver market. We examine whether ongoing price behavior reflects true supply and demand or if market structure and intervention are distorting price discovery. Understanding this dynamic is critical for anyone using precious metals as part of a broader diversification or inflation-hedging strategy.

You will also get a performance update on the Copley Tactical strategy, including how it has navigated recent volatility and how investors can gain access to it. To close, we highlight what we believe is one of the strongest Buffered Index Portfolio offers we have seen in some time, created for a moment like this when protection and upside participation both matter.

This update is designed to help you understand where the market stands today, why this moment is so important, and how to position intelligently moving forward.
