The Klarenbach Grain Report prepares you for these moves and how to react.
📅 Week of September 14–18, 2026
Five sessions, one Fed decision, and a barrel of crude that couldn't sit still.
Oil swung from a Saudi pipeline attack to a vault past $105 to a post-Fed slide, while silver quietly strung together its best run in weeks.
Here's what readers opened most this week — ranked, recapped, and linked back to the full board.

WTI jumped toward four-month highs on a Saudi pipeline attack while gold shed 1.3% and silver 1.6% on Fed rate-hike bets; oats spiked 3.7%.

📋 The Week in One Line
The pivot: Wednesday's Fed hike — the first since 2023 — rattled crude and reset the tone for the back half of the week.
The standout: Silver never really stopped climbing, clearing $65, then $66, then topping $67 by Friday, even as gold chopped around.
The driver: Crude oil bookended the week — a Saudi pipeline attack Monday, a vault to $105 Tuesday, then a fade into the weekend — the most volatile thread from open to close.
