Energy prices in the United States just did something violent. The PCE energy index jumped 11.56% month-over-month in March 2026, which pushed headline inflation back up to 3.5% year-over-year after a year of relative calm.

Harbor Commodity All-Weather Strategy ETF surged 24.94% in Q1 2026, outperforming the commodity composite's 11.79% gain.
