$96 Oil and Market Updates -- Eric Hadik #5897

Eric Hadik joined us for an update on markets. He previously called for weakness in share markets and sees that trend continuing with sell-offs and rebounds in the year ahead. Gold will stay subdued until the dollar starts to gradually decline, which should be later in 2024. The dollar will start to feel the pressure when the BRICS plans start to take hold and others look for an "anti-dollar." Again later next year. Oil should be hitting its intermediate high shortly. Eric had called for higher prices during our last sit-down and the market appears to be cooperating with prices trading at 2023 highs.  Interest rates are due for a peak and a partial retracement until next year when they resume their move higher.  Visit Eric at InsiideTrackTrading Visit us at FSN  This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

A New Path to Prosperity Without Crisis -- Richard Vague #5878

When we talk about debt and its impact on our economy, we almost always mean “government debt.” However, this is only a small part of the picture: individuals, private firms, and households owe trillions, and these private debts are vital to understanding the economy. In this iconoclastic book, Richard Vague examines the assets, liabilities, and incomes of the entire country, private and public sector, to reveal its net worth. His holistic analysis shows that the real factor that drives both financial crises and spiraling inequality―but also, paradoxically, economic growth―is ever rising private debt. The paradox is that while debt is essential and our economy relies on it, it also brings instability unless it is periodically deleveraged―and that is very hard to do. It can, however, be carefully managed, and Vague ends the book by showing how to do so in policy areas ranging from trade and housing to financial policy and student debt. Underpinned by pioneering data analysis and the author’s lifetime of experience in the financial world, this book is essential for anyone who wants to understand the deep, underlying dynamics of the American economy.  Get Richard's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Paradox-Debt-Prosperity-Without-Crisis/dp/1512825328 Visit FSN https://FinancialSurvivalNetwork.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Investing in Warrants and Cheap Stocks - Dudley Baker #5873

Kerry Lutz and Dudley Baker discussed the current state of the resource sector and the potential for high returns in the future. Baker mentioned a service he subscribes to that predicts a cycle low in precious metal stocks, which could be causing the current down pressure on gold and mining shares. He believes that once these cycle lows have passed, there should be a big up move in the gold and mining shares, potentially leading to ten baggers or even x one thousand percent returns for investors. Baker also shared his investment philosophy and provided examples of his investment strategy, emphasizing the potential for high returns in the resource sector and the importance of getting in early. He advised investors to do their own due diligence and invest in companies that they believe have potential for growth, and suggested that now may be a good time to invest in mining stocks.

Economic indicators & Secret Bank Bailouts - Robert Kientz #5872

Kerry Lutz and Robert Kientz discussed the banking crisis and deposit gap caused by the Federal Reserve raising interest rates, leading to an outflow of almost a trillion dollars from large commercial banks and several hundred billions from small commercial banks. They expressed concerns about the potential for wholesale defaults and policymakers' ability to recognize the issue and take action to help shore up the banks' balance sheets. The speakers also discussed the possibility of bailouts taking place behind the scenes and the challenges of the FDIC's limited coverage for deposits. They questioned whether the policy-making tools will be strong enough to prevent a downward spiral and maintain consumer confidence, and expressed uncertainty about the future of the banking system. Kerry Lutz and Robert Kientz also discussed the economic benefits of living in low tax states like Florida and Texas, which have a business-friendly climate and booming real estate markets. They compared these states to high tech states with misguided policies, such as California and New York, where real estate prices are negatively impacted by high taxes. The booming real estate market in low tax states has led to positive growth and increased tax receipts, but has also caused stress for those with lower incomes due to rising rents and home prices. Despite these challenges, Kerry and Robert agreed that low tax states are generally doing much better than high tech states in terms of economic growth and prosperity.

FURY Continues to Expand Eau Claire Gold Deposit with CEO Tim Clark

We sat down for a sponsor update from Fury Gold Mines’ (FURY 🇨🇦: FURY 🇺🇸) CEO Tim Clark and Exploration SVP Bryan Atkinson ( FURY). Drill results are in for the first 3 holes for 2023. Multiple zones of high-grade gold were intercepted at the Hinge Target. Gold mineralization was present in each drill hole including 5.0 meters of 3.6 g/t Au, 6.5m of 2.66 g/t Au, 6.0m of 2.77 g/t Au and 1.0m of 10.35 g/t Au. Atkinson says things are going exactly to plan with good continuity and results. CEO Clark explains that a revised resource estimate is expected later in the year. His hope is for 2 million ounces. With drills continuing to turn on Hinge and Percival, this is not too far a stretch. While the Quebec wildfires delayed drilling for four weeks, the crews have returned with renewed vigor and they’re making up for lost time. The good news is that assay labs are back in full operation and have been rapidly returning results. Fury started the year with an impressive C$12 million in the treasury and expects to finish with C$6 million. In addition, they are still a 25% holder of Dolly Varden Silver shares so adequate funds will be available beyond 2023. Fury has also taken on a new chair – Brian Christie, who reigned for a decade as Investor Relations dynamo at Agnico Eagle. This will facilitate the company’s efforts to broaden its investor appeal, which is one of the many reasons we are staying invested.

Underwater wells are complex and Trillion is working to balance production in an effort to insure optimal cash flow. Art informed us that the company will begin drilling again in 2024, after completing a major 3D seismic study on its existing and adjoining blocks. While becoming an established natural gas producer, it has entered into a farm-in agreement with Derkim Poliüretan Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. to earn a 50% working & revenue interest in three oil exploration blocks comprised of 151,484 hectares (374,325 acres) within the newly defined Cudi-Gabar petroleum province in Southeastern Turkiye. Art said that, “[This is] the Best Oil Property I’ve Come Across in My Career.” The site is in close proximity to several recent major discoveries. As part of the deal, Trillion will complete 2d seismic on the site and drill 4 wells in 2024. Art reflected that Trillion is now a natural gas producer, realizing over $2mm per month in net cash flow and is applying the funds to building out the company by making major investments in Turkiye booming energy sector. The company has come a long way in the past two years. With its latest moves, it is building upon its prior successes and preparing the way for much larger gains in the future.

The World According Martin Armstrong Part IV -- De-Dollarization and the Neocons Aren't Going Anywhere #5868

Kerry Lutz interviewed Martin Armstrong about his new book on De-Dollarization and its potential impact on global financial markets. Armstrong argued that the US dollar's dominance is backed by deep financial markets and that the creation of a BRICS currency is unlikely to replace it. He also discussed the geopolitical factors at play, including the Biden administration's removal of Russia from Swift and the impact on globalization. Armstrong suggested that the de-dollarization trend is driven by geopolitical factors rather than deficits, and that the US cannot continue to threaten China and Russia while expecting them to lend money to buy bullets to shoot them. The conversation also touched on the banking crisis and interest rates, with Armstrong explaining that the primary problem is that interest rates were kept artificially low for too long in Europe, resulting in pension funds and banks losing 30-40% of their capital. They also discussed investment strategies in the current market, including diversifying into tangible assets like real estate, antique coins, and art. The conversation briefly touched on the use of drones in the Ukraine war and the desire for war among certain political figures.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Recession Risk Is Still Present -- James Locke #5865

PMI Report (Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index) measures the activity level of purchasing managers in the manufacturing sector Past few months we have seen the numbers in line or under expectations Last week it was above for the first time since April Another number will be reported tomorrow ALL values are still negative, even if they are not as negative as initially thought. Everyone is Bullish and it is scary! Morgan Stanley strategist Mike Wilson finally capitulated and apologized for getting the market wrong the last nine months. (He is a huge bear mkt guy) from 3500-4400 When the Street’s most bearish strategist turns bullish, does that mean the market is due for a correction? YES! Time to get short. Last year people were adding on to TBill positions. This Year, everyone YOLOed into tech stock and out of TBills Right on market highs. You could not have scripted this any better. Between strategists apologizing and people YOLOing into tech stocks, I think it’s time to book whatever gains we have and move to the sidelines. Lets put a baseline correction of 10-12% And it could get worse. All I know is that all the conditions are in place for a correction of some magnitude. And it will take a lot of people by surprise, as these things usually do. Word of advice: sell when you can, not when you have to. Never confuse brains with a bull market. When we start to hear of plumbers quitting their jobs and getting into day trading… again. They made a lot of money off TSLA and think that is a repeatable strategy. Here we go again.  We all remember that in the 90s, but I guess not everyone does. We can talk about how interest rates are over 5%, how there is a war in Europe, how there is the persistent threat of inflation, how richly valued the stock market is—none of it matters. These are the sorts of things that people like us talk about on media shows.  People may hear us, but are they listening? You want to know where the market is going? Don’t follow the smart money; follow the dumb money. – I use that term loosely, because the pain will be real.   Inflation is 3% The tomb is sealed, and we don’t even realize it yet. Bottoms are made on panic. Tops are made on euphoria. In October, we were fearing hyperinflation. Now there is open discussion about deflation. The truth is always somewhere in between. We went from believing that inflation was undefeated to defeated in nine months. Over that time, the stock market has rallied over 20%. There is a lot of complacency out there. It’s the summer, people are having a good time, and they don’t see the need to hedge. People aren’t doing a lot of thinking about how to insure against a downturn. Mind you, I’m not talking about a crash—I would never call for a crash—I’m just saying that a sharp correction is highly likely, and it is going to catch a lot of people offside.

They also discussed the challenges faced by the electrification trend, such as the lack of electricity to power the cars and the emissions to manufacture them. The government is investing trillions of dollars in subsidies and incentives, but eventually, the industries will have to stand on their own. The risks involved in these ventures often get overshadowed, and entrepreneurs and businesses are needed to take the risks to find these things and nurture these businesses.

Wright expressed caution and bearishness, citing the sticky inflation rate and the upcoming challenges for small businesses.

He suggested investing in consumer staples and comfort stocks and avoiding AI stocks that don't pay much in dividends. The conversation also touched on the upcoming PPI number, with David stating that it will be lower than the previous month due to prices coming down. They discussed the cost of goods, with Kerry mentioning the cost of Thanksgiving dinner and 4th of July barbecue as two indexes she pays attention to.

America's Multi-Trillion Dollar Energy Opportunity with CEO Todd Michaels

We sat down with a new show sponsor, Correlate Energy’s CEO Todd Michaels (OTC: CIPI). He explains that fortunes are made and lost when major energy transitions take place. Today we are in the first inning of a major transition away from centralized electricity generation to decentralized production. As CEO Michaels stated, “Just like the smartphone changed the way we all work and communicate, decentralized energy will have a similar profound effect.” As the electrification transition rapidly moves forward, traditional carbon-based energy sources alone cannot provide the extra needed giga-watts. However, multi-trillion-dollar government incentives are locked in place and there’s no going back. Solar, wind and increasingly microgrids will lead the way. Correlate is uniquely situated to capitalize upon the resulting opportunities. In it’s case, their seasoned team has decades of experience in the renewable energy marketplace. They provide customers with a one-stop solution including: financing, planning, permitting, construction and operational management. The company just announced an initial $100 million joint venture with eDGe Renewable Partners which will dramatically increase micro-grid development and construction, nationwide. The strategy appears to be working as the company became cashflow positive in May and expects revenues of $25-35mm in 2023 and $45-60mm in 2024 while achieving 18-25% margins. CEO Michaels states, “You can see the [revenue growth] directionality as our projects are now coming to fulfillment.” He makes a compelling case as few businesses can resist the ability to lock in and reduce their electric bills for the next 20-30 years. Decentralized Energy has arrived and promises to be the hottest and most profitable energy sector for the next several decades. Correlate offers a low-cost, low-risk way to profit from this inexorable trend.

GDP up 2%, Break Out the Champagne — Matthew Johnson #5846

The U.S. economy showed much stronger-than-expected growth in the first quarter than previously thought. GDP increased at a 2% annualized pace for the January-through-March period, up from the previous estimate of 1.3%. The upward revision helps undercut widespread expectations that the U.S. is heading toward a recession but I am not so sure that is realistic if the Fed’s continue pushing rates higher. We all know inflation has finally hit 4% according to the CPI but consumer spending, as gauged by personal consumption expenditures, rose 4.2%, the highest quarterly pace since the second quarter of 2021 and Core PCE prices rose 4.9% which will only fuel the Fed’s resolve to continue pushing rates higher to continue contracting the economy. Interestingly we see that exports rose 7.8% after falling 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022 so demand seems to be healthy. Though I think many investors are wanting to be bullish, now is not the time to embrace the market with both hands.  Remember that as we begin entering earnings season many of these companies get to set their own bar, therefore it has been easier for them to look good when in reality there is underlying weakness in their earnings. Be patient, focus on dividends (collect them or spend them) but be ready to buy as there’s likely to be more K-Mart Blue Light Specials coming.

FPX Receives Large Investments from Major Industry Players

Martin Turenne, CEO of FPX Nickel (🇺🇸FPOCF -- 🇨🇦FPX) provided a sponsor update. The company is currently sitting on C$32 million with a good likelihood of more coming. C$16 million came in via an investment by giant European stainless producer Outokumpu. An additional C$2 million arrived via FPX’s confidential investor, to maintain its %9.9 FPX share. Martin also discussed the significance of FPX’s newly formed global generative exploration alliance with Japan Organization for Metals and Security (“JOGMEC”), which aims to build on the successes of the Baptiste Nickel Project by identifying new large-scale awaruite nickel deposits worldwide. In furtherance of this agreement, Keith Patterson joined as VP of Exploration. He’s a seasoned mining company executive with vast exploration experience. Martin had previously scoured the planet looking for awaruite deposits similar to Baptiste. These deposits are found in many countries; Martin has already identified the most promising targets for future acquisition. Now that FPX has proven that awaruite deposits are economically feasible, these projects have enormous upside potential. FPX’s future is looking bright. Retail investors are starting to catch on as witnessed by the recent share appreciation. Interest among OEM’s and other nickel consumers is building. The company is moving to release its preliminary feasibility statement in September and this could well spark an explosive phase in the company’s growth.

Has the Fed Really Paused - John Rubino #5840

The Fed "paused" but didn't stop? What does that mean? Are we there yet? Stocks tanked on Friday. Europe might be a big story in 2H. Recession, spiking interest rates, German deindustrialization. China meltdown continues, where will it end? San Francisco is failing, the laboratory of democracy. Violence over the weekend across the country was stupefying. Trump indictment backfires, majority of country see it as politically motivated.  The Biden recordings might be a huge deal. Or they might be buried by the MSM. The Rogan/Kennedy/Hotez thing is hilarious.  John Rubino and Kerry Lutz discussed a range of topics, including the Fed's decision to pause interest rate hikes, Europe's financial crisis, China's real estate bubble, San Francisco's real estate market, endless war, Rfk Junior's popularity, and conspiracy theories surrounding JFK's assassination. They also shared personal updates and discussed future plans. John argued that the Fed's decision to pause interest rate hikes is not necessarily good news, and they analyzed Europe's financial crisis, including the new green deal and its potential consequences for the economy. They also discussed China's real estate bubble, which is bigger than Japan's in the 90s and the US bubble in the 2000s, and the consequences of lockdowns in China. They touched on San Francisco's poor management and the issue of violence across the country. They reflected on the prevalence of war in US history and the potential for a nuclear war, as well as Rfk Junior's popularity and his take on vaccines and corruption within the healthcare establishment.

Higher Gold Prices Ahead -- Eric Hadik #5838

Noted cycle analyst Eric Hadik joined us for a market overview. He believes the dollar will stay close to its current range for a protracted period of time. Interest rates have peaked and are heading lower, perhaps in anticipation of the coming election cycle.  What affect this will have on housing is yet to be determined. Rates look like they are staying higher than they were during the housing bull market.  Gold should have a pullback soon and then proceed higher. Depending upon the extent of the pullback, they could go substantially higher.  Oil should see higher prices coming after its current consolidation.  Bitcoin could see a major increase come July, if it manages to stay above the $25,000 range that it's currently occupying.  A very interested and detailed look into the markets.  Visit Eric at: insiidetracktrading.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

The Fed Hath Paused -- James Locke #5837

Federal Reserve – to hike or not to hike Pause is expected – further notes after the release of the interest rate move Bullish stocks, low bond yields and recovering housing market suggest interest rates aren’t that restrictive The Fed’s mission has been to get interest rates high enough to slash inflation from its current 4% to 5% range to 2%, even if that means pushing the economy into recession and unemployment higher. If the Fed had succeeded, you probably wouldn’t be seeing these things: stocks entering a new bull market, a rebounding housing market or long-term Treasury yields well below the inflation rate. Typically, when the Fed raises short-term rates, stock prices fall, and long-term bond yields and the dollar rise. That’s what happened for the first six months of Fed tightening in more or less textbook fashion. But since October, all have changed direction. The S&P 500 is up 22% since last fall’s low. This reflects rising earnings forecasts and excitement about artificial intelligence Behind the rally in stocks is a belief that inflation will soon plummet as pandemic-related distortions of prices for new and used cars, apartment rents and houses all reverse.  Then the economy will slow due to rate hikes and eventually the Fed will cut rates. Banks are tightening lending – GDP grew 1.6% (lower then long term run rates) unemployment rose to 3.7% Yet somehow we continue to see the economy moving forward. Markets are pricing in a high probability that central bank policymakers will “skip” — an expression they generally prefer to “pause” — at this month’s meeting as they digest the impact of 5 percentage points worth of increases going back to March 2022. Not an end Inflation is dropping – good sign 4% y over y probably cemented the decision to pause Stop to evaluate – what do the post meeting minutes say?  The details are important Are they leaning towards raising rates further? – likely to see a rate hike in July 25-26 meeting. What happens with GDP.  Continued improvement or a “shallow recession”. A pause recognizes that there’s a lag between what we do and when it shows up in the economy and inflation. What does Powell say at the press conference – probably committed to continued lowering inflation and keeping the hiking door open.  Most likely no comment about July move. Finding the balance between enough aggression to bring down inflation while not tanking the economy is the Fed’s ultimate goal. History suggests that central banks that pause usually commence hiking soon after they discover that inflation hasn’t been vanquished  a recession remains the most likely case for most economists. The risk in continuing to raise interest rates is something will break more structurally than it has so far Then they would have to lower interest rates if they cause a recession. In the past, we’ve had very few periods where the fed funds rate went up then plateaued. Usually, the Fed overdoes itThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

They argued that this approach could provide economic opportunities and valuable skills, and could be a solution to the housing crisis. They also discussed the potential mental benefits of opting-out of society and rediscovering oneself, but acknowledged that not everyone will participate in this trend. Aaron suggested that young people should consider building their own homes instead of pursuing higher education, and mentioned the hurdles that come with this unconventional approach, such as the cost of land and the need for skills in carpentry and home repairs. Kerry shared a personal anecdote about fixing a toilet and encouraged listeners to take on household repairs themselves or find a handyman to save money. They also discussed the potential for creative financing, such as rent-to-own, and the availability of resources like YouTube for self-instruction. In the wrap-up of their interview, Kerry and Aaron discussed where to find Aaron's work and had a brief personal chat about South Dakota and Aaron's personal life. The tone was friendly and casual, with both speakers expressing pleasure in talking to each other.

You Don't Want to Miss this Urgent Credit Bust Update with Bob Hoye #5833

Economic historian extraordinaire is with us today to explain the credit bust, where it's heading, where we're going, and put it in historical perspective as well.

But it's bad news for tech stocks and the rest of the economy. Bob believes that this ultimate credit bust will lead the world to head back to a gold stand and that's a good thing. Gone will be the days of financial engineering by the world's inept conflicted and compromised central bankers.

It has been sold on every continent except Antarctica and has added three quarters of a million people to the gold market in the past few years.

Your Gold is Going Higher, Just Not Yet -- Jordan Roy-Byrne #5822

Jordan Roy-Byrne agrees that the market often seeks to frustrate the majority of participants, especially in the precious metals and mining stocks, particularly the juniors.

A History of Major Financial Crises and How Taxpayers Pay the Price - Kathleen Day #5819

Kathleen Day has written a book about the history of financial crises in the US, which have been occurring since the founding of the country. She explains that while deregulation can be beneficial, it must be accompanied by increased oversight to prevent crises. People tend to forget the lessons of the past and take more risks when other people's money is at stake. The reserve requirement is meant to protect against liquidity crises, but if the demand for deposits continues, banks can still become insolvent and taxpayers must pay the price. Kathleen Day discussed the similarities between the financial crisis of the 1980s and the current situation, noting that both had to do with inflation and interest rates. She also discussed the role of the government in regulating banks and the need for stress tests for all size banks. Lastly, she discussed the dangers of moral hazard and the need for banks to be conservative in their investments. kathleenday.com FSNThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Cure to Addiction will Cause Economic Chaos — John Rubino #5817

John Rubino is concerned that automation and government debt will lead to a collapse of the current system, and suggests that people should move their money into assets that cannot be inflated away. He also suggests shorting certain stocks and buying long-term options as a way to make money from the collapse. Kerry Lutz suggests using inverse ETFs and buying puts on the Housing Homebuilders ETF as other ways to make money. He also mentions a drug, Amg tide, that could help people with addictions to consumerism. John Rubino and Kerry Lutz discuss the potential implications of a drug that could cure addiction, including the potential for a global depression, a universal basic income, and a civil war between the boomers and the millennials. They also discuss the Bilderberg Group and the possibility of Elon Musk being co-opted or assassinated. John Rubino believes that leading economic indicators are flashing red, predicting a major recession coming, and that commercial real estate is a mess.

It's the Debt Stupid -- Brad Williams #5816

America just refuses to face reality and that means that the dollar will continue to lose value and more and more money will be tossed into the furnace. Politicians are much more willing to feed the inflation beast than they are to fix the underlying problem of out of control spending. And it's not a matter of parties. It's matter of always taking the easy way out. After all, in current day America, a politician's primary responsibility is to get reelected every 2-4-6 years  Until that changes, nothing else will change.

Economy Keeps Muddling Through -- Wolf Richter #5815

Wolf Richter summarizes that the economy is a mix of different sectors, with some doing well and some struggling. Consumers are still spending, but the banks are facing high interest rates and the commercial real estate sector is facing repurposing and foreclosure. The auto industry is seeing a decline in sales, but Tesla is still doing well. Tesla is shaking up the auto industry by cutting prices and building production capacity in large amounts, forcing legacy automakers to compete on price. This is good for industrial America and consumers, but bad for automakers as sales of internal combustion engine vehicles are at levels not seen since the 1970s. Electric utilities are also benefiting from increased electricity sales. Wolf Richter and Kerry Lutz discussed the current state of the financial system, with Wolf noting that the economy is adjusting to higher interest rates and that banks are struggling with them. They also discussed the possibility of the Federal Reserve cutting rates and the potential impact it would have.

Why the Debt Ceiling Mess is Important to You -- Carl Gould #5811

The debt ceiling is a political bargaining chip used by both parties to get their desired outcomes. It is inevitable and does not have to be a bad thing, as long as it is kept under a certain percentage of revenue. The disruption to the monetary system will come from digital currencies, which will be backed by a military and government. The US is relatively stable, but the next 3-6 years will be volatile and rocky due to the economic downturn and Covid. Individuals should prepare for this by being aware of the situation and taking necessary precautions. Carl Gould advises to buy assets at a discount and manage for cash flow during volatile times. He suggests investing in marketing and brand building, and for employees to show their boss how indispensable they are and be willing to come back to the office. Elon Musk's advice to go back to the office is also a sign that it's time to do so.

Regenx’s Replicatable Money Machine

We sat down with Regenx Tech’s (🇺🇸RGXTF -- 🇨🇦RGX) CEO Greg Pendura and USA Division President Rick Purdy for a sponsor update. They are moving quickly towards a production start at their flagship Tennessee plant. Their proprietary process which takes discarded diesel catalytic converters and extracts platinum, palladium and rhodium was proven out in their pilot plant and is well on its way to commercial production. Once operational, it will recover up to 3000 grams per ton of plat/pal. With an expected processing rate of 2.5 tons per day, the numbers quickly add up. They will be printing money. Their close relationship with industry leader Davis Recycling assures that they will have a near inexhaustible feedstock supply. They’re already planning for three additional modules at the site. Capex will be lower than the initial module and costs will also be less as economies of scale kick in. The process is being continually refined and recoveries are expected to increase to well over 90%. Currently 6 people are working at the plant. Once it’s fully operational that number will increase to 15. The company has received a highly positive reception from state and local authorities. Everyone is firmly committed to reducing hazardous materials that find their way into increasingly scarce landfills. Once the system is in place, it is easily scalable and replicatable. Pendura foresees a global network of plants all churning out consistent profits. The benefits of reducing toxic discharges into landfills will be meaningful; which is why we’re shareholders.

Prospera Energy Ramps Up Summer Production with CEO Samuel David

We received an update on Prospera Energy (🇺🇸TRBMF -- 🇨🇦GXRFF) from CEO Samuel David along with some valuable feedback from White Tundra’s Shubham Garg. The recently released resource report shows that Prospera’s reserves grew 50 percent last year. Production held steady during the very cold months of winter at the company’s Alberta and Saskatchewan fields.  CEO David believes that 2023 will be a transformative year and production could double if circumstances go in Prospera’s favor. That would be a near 50-fold increase from when David took over the company In addition, acquisitions are very much on the table and being actively pursued by the company.  The 2023 drill program will get underway in the summer, with 18 wells being drilled. With the increasing reliance on tech to maximize recoveries, strict reservoir management is more important than ever. CEO David’s strategy is to bring new wells on stream gradually and increase output once the scope of the reservoir is fully understood. This patient process will ensure these new wells produce for decades at extremely low decline rates, all while seeing production costs decline and profits increase. Garg summed this up quite well stating, “Prospera is now in the escape velocity out of Earth and once you get into low orbit, it's a lot easier to get into high orbit from there. It is just the way physics and science works, and it applies to reservoirs as well.” And we as shareholders in Prospera agree that the merger of technology, reservoir management, new efficiencies and the utmost respect for the environment will see the company reach new heights in 2023.

The Banking Crisis is Far from Over - John Rubino #5804

John Rubino explains that regional and local banks are still facing a banking crisis due to bonds on their balance sheets and commercial real estate losses. He also discusses how the experts have failed to manage the economy, leading to instability and mistrust. Finally, he suggests that markets should dictate policy instead of dictators. John Rubino and Kerry Lutz discussed the potential of a movie script featuring two presidential candidates running from prison, as well as the implications of Fox News firing Tucker Carlson, who was a popular truth-teller. They also discussed the possibility of Carlson leaving Fox to make more money and the potential of a three-letter agency being involved in JFK's assassination. Fox News made a risky decision that cost them billions of dollars, which suggests they had a compelling reason for doing so. Tucker Carlson is likely to leave Fox and start his own media empire, and RFK Jr. is running for president and is polling well. Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan are more influential than mainstream media, and a debate between RFK Jr. and Donald Trump moderated by Tucker Carlson could be a pay-per-view event.

Global Banking Crisis of 2023 Is Fully Underway with Chris Vermeulen #5798

Chris Vermeulen of Technical Trader Ltd. believes that the banking crisis is leading to dark times in the financial markets, with banking stocks collapsing and people moving their money into physical metals like gold and silver. He suggests that people invest in physical metals for long-term security, and that gold and silver could skyrocket if the banking system collapses and people lose trust in paper money. Technical Trader Ltd. believes that a stage four decline is coming soon, which could pull precious metals down, but if gold and silver break out of their current resistance levels, they could experience a multi-year rally with huge returns. He recommends having both gold and silver as part of an investment portfolio to maximize potential returns.

Oil Shortage Coming with Dee Carter #5792

Dee Carter, an expert in the oil patch, discussed the current state of the oil and gas industry with Kerry Lutz. Oil prices have been fluctuating between $77 and $78 per barrel, and natural gas prices are in the low $2 range. There is a divergence between the two prices, and analysts are worried about the economic outlook and the demand for the summertime. Opec countries are scaling back production in May, which will lead to an undersupply of oil and an increase in prices. There is also a large refinery expansion taking place in Houston, which will help offset the downturn in production. Natural gas prices are low due to a warm winter and more people converting to natural gas. Fracking will still be a major factor in natural gas production, but other methods of extraction are being explored.

Global Financial Crisis Coming Soon with David Stryzewski #5790

If you know where the Consumer is going, you will know where our economy is headed. US Consumer Confidence declined in April from 104 to 101. The survey began on April 3 (about three weeks after the bank failures) The Expectations Index—based on consumers' short-term outlook for income, business, and labor market conditions—fell to 68.1 from 74.0. The Expectations Index has now remained below 80—the level associated with a recession within the next year This type of reading points to Consumers spending less and saving more over the next year. One thing particularly concerning was that this Survey showed deterioration in expectations for consumers under 55 years of age whose households earned over $50,000.  This is the group who tends to spend the most money.   IMO, the Consumer is very fearful right now and is starting to brace themselves for the next phase of this Recession… The last leg (Capitulation) is always the worst! Many are expecting a quick down market followed by a recovery over the course of a few quarters. I personally see a much different story developing.  Rate hikes have already done their damage which I believe will lead to a ROLLING Recession that will play out over years of time. IMO, it would be a major mistake to believe that the Banking Crisis is over… we just finished the first month. The 2008 Crashes of Lehman and Bear to Fannie and Freddie unfolded over a year's time... we've just finished the first month. Ex: Local Regionals are responsible for about 70% of lending to Corporations and Commercial Real Estate.  They have far less capital than then before as fears of default have begun and Treasuries are paying so much more and no FDIC limits.  3 Primary Areas that Retirees need to focus on now. Income Planning: I just got back from the UK and the Taxi drivers are telling me that they are choosing between buying food and paying for utilities.  Personal CPI is critical… many do not have a Budget and therefore do not understand their Spending Plan The strategies that got us here may leave us very short in retirement. BONDS can lose money in 5 different ways… Would be a really bad thing if Defaults or Chapter 11’s began again like they did in highly rated companies like we saw in ‘08 Ex: Buy and Hold had its worst year as both Stocks and Bonds had their worst year next to 2008. Investing: The goal is to Ride Bulls and Tame Bears™ 70-80% of the gain while missing 70-80% of the pain.  We have a MAJOR DEBT PROBLEM in the US which is going to result in massive Tax Increases. The goal is to keep as much as possible. What accounts and What amounts that we need to W/D from? Tax Advantaged Investing?  Real Estate options… still have a Mortgage? Options with Rentals?  Many are not aware that we have 2yrs 8m till the TCJA expires.  Tax Advantaged Planning The point is that the World is Changing and this is not the time to be falling asleep at the wheel.  Connect with David at https://myspg.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

FPX Nickel Partners with Highly Regarded Mining Player to Pursue Further Discoveries

We received a sponsor update from FPX Nickel’s (🇺🇸FPOCF -- 🇨🇦FPX) CEO Martin Turenne. The company has recently made a number of significant announcements. First, word came of a strategic partner investing C$12 million (name yet to be released). Then the Canadian government contributed C$725,000 to help advance FPX’s development of nickel and cobalt projects. Now, FPX has entered into a Global Generative Exploration Alliance with the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (“JOGMEC”), which is the Japanese Government’s critical mineral agency. These developments affirm and validate the company’s strategy to develop its vast nickel holdings. Finally, Sprott Asset Management has included FPX in its newly minted nickel ETF. It’s the only junior nickel company to hold that distinction. These developments come on the back of FPX’s successful Baptiste project pilot plant test that achieved high nickel recoveries. It proved that FPX’s vast awaruite nickel mineralization can be economically developed; its new extraction method works. Upon joining FPX, Martin invested his own capital and kept his compensation low. He spent many days on the road seeking potential investors. The tables have turned. Now nickel users and investors are lining up to offer their support and capital for a share of FPX’s future clean nickel production. Martin embodies the best attributes of a CEO. He never resorted to excessive dilution, by strictly controlling costs and putting capital to optimal use. Shareholders will profit from his stewardship.

Banking Black Swans Descending - John Rubino #5756

Summary: John Rubino joins us in this episode to unpack the emerging banking crisis, which has become extremely prevalent recently. Last month, Jim Cramer said that Silicon Valley Bank was the pick of the decade, and this week, it ceases to exist. The same is true for Signature Bank, which was the only other bank that went bankrupt this week—making that two failed picks from Jim Cramer in the span of a year. It seems that the banks’ delayed reactions to yield curve inversion have created confusion and misleading outlooks on the economy. The yield curve inversion did not hurt the banks immediately, but we are now at the point of inversion where it does start to hurt the banks. Furthermore, even if a capitulation comes sooner rather than later, we will still see a recession this year—dissolving the illusion that we’ve been living under for so long.

Torq Resources Seeks to Expand Santa Cecilia Copper-Gold Discovery

Torq Resources’(🇺🇸TRBMF -- 🇨🇦TORQ) CEO and Chair Shawn Wallace joined us for a sponsor update. Fresh off a C$6.26 financing, the company is flush with cash. A fully funded 15,000 meter drill program focused on their Santa Cecilia Project has commenced. The project has been progressing rapidly. Challenges have arisen, ” … mostly external to the project. In a normal world, which we certainly aren't right now … we could have done it more quickly, but you can't really speed up the science and the process to make good decisions”, CEO Wallace stated. In the face of these challenges, the company’s Chilean team picked up the baton and ran with it. According to Wallace, they are equal to or superior to any talent he’s worked with. While it’s been over a decade since the discovery was made, he observes that, “We have the privilege of following up on historical work that defined 1.5 km of continuous vertical mineralization, starting at surface in an epithermal gold system and then transitioned into copper porphyry mineralization. There are multiple porphyry centers on this project, so this is only the beginning of a significant drill campaign...” The first two drill holes will take place in the Cerro del Medio target, which is centrally located on the project. Torq has strong local community backing. Chile is stable. The Chilean People made their voice heard during the recent referendum. Now it’s a matter of waiting for the drill results, which should prove that Torq is extremely undervalued. Other companies are watching the project closely. With end users around the world stepping up to insure reliable sources of EV metals, Torq’s market position could get very interesting very quickly.

Make Returns on Real Estate Investment in 2023 - James Dainard #5752

Summary: Interest rates continue to go up, and the Fed is promising another 50 basis point hike. How is this affecting the real estate market, and is real estate still the place to be? Here to tackle this topic is Real Estate Investor James Dainard, who sheds light on the ways that the Fed rate hikes have impacted real estate in the Pacific Northwest. Higher interest rates have slowed down the disposition, creating more expenses, and have greatly affected the value of flipped homes—especially in the beginning.

Transitions in the market unveil opportunities in different places, and James discusses some of these.

Are You Ready for the Crash of '23? Michael Markowski #5751

Summary: Is there a financial crash in our future? Michael Markowski has predicted all three major crashes since 2007, and appears in this episode to tell us why we’re on the road to another. He makes a couple of significant predictions: a 69% decline from the peak to the trough for the S&P 500 and a third US Great Depression that will set in by the end of the year. Michael describes some of the ways in which the S&P 500 can go down by a minimum of 45% (which is required for a depression to occur) and that this decline can be anticipated by understanding investor psychology. Secular markets in particular condition investors to be either fearful or greedy, shifting attitudes towards risk. Michael discusses his company, AlphaTack, and their algorithm-backed strategies that introduce investors to hedge funds with the goal of “growing assets against the wind.” He explains how they integrate in-depth research and market data to provide solutions to investors, and names some sectors and allocation targets they’re working with. Tune in to this episode for expert insight on the crash, and tips on how to prepare.  Useful Links: Financial Survival Network AlphaTack Link to Michael Markowski's presentation slides  This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Recessions are Transitory - Anthony Saccaro #5749

Summary: As the Fed prepares to raise interest rates at least 50 points higher, everyone is wondering what lies in store for housing, the economy, and our portfolios. Here to discuss this is Anthony Saccaro, financial expert and founder of Providence Financial & Insurance Services. The plan to continually hike up interest rates is designed to lower inflation to 2% or 3%, but this will inevitably fuel a recession. The length and depth of this recession ultimately depends on how much longer the battle for inflation goes, and low unemployment seems to be keeping inflation high. Tough times ahead imply that it is essential to reconsider investing strategies, and Anthony assures us that we can count on interest and dividends for now.

The economy needs to roll over in order for the Fed to go back to easing; in this case, a good jobs report and housing report promote further tightening.

Counterproductive Solutions for Inflation - Eddy Gifford #5738

Summary: Does the government want to solve the inflation problem, or do they need it to stay this way for a bit? Eddy Gifford comes on the show to discuss this topic, and points out the contradictory effects in place. Powell has stated that their primary goal is to fix inflation, but interest rates keep going up. This means that the stock market could roll over and push up the cost of housing—which is one of the primary indicators in the CPI. Interest rates are ultimately defeating ht purpose of what they’re trying to accomplish, and thus, it’s important to protect yourself during this time. Eddy recommends having a proactive investment strategy and paying off debts. In addition, investors should look towards treasuries and annuities to prioritize liquidity in particular.

Passive Investing for Success - Whitney Elkins-Hutten #5732

Summary: Are you looking for a passive investing opportunity with lots of advantages and few risks? If so, you’ll definitely want to tune in to this episode featuring Whitney Elkins-Hutten, the director of investor education at PassiveInvesting.com. Whitney defines passive investing as investing in assets that produce a stabilized monthly/quarterly cash flow and provide diversification to the portfolio. In essence, you’re not trading time for cash flow; you make the investment once and monitor it from there—which is why passive investing is a great opportunity for busier individuals that want to generate another stream of income. Since 2018, Whitney’s team has exited 8 multi-family deals, and their distributions get paid out monthly or quarterly. She explains that are some risks at play—with the potential to lose capital or suspend cash flow—but they have strategies to mitigate this risk and ensure great returns on your investment.

Summary: We’re seeing a lot of trends in the economy with specific regard to employment—as more companies announce mass layoffs, there seems to be a larger factor at play. Eddie Yoon joins me in this episode to talk about the grand shift that is taking place in the professional sphere, fueled by the transition from a knowledge-based economy to a creator-based economy. What this means is that the qualifications that were once absolutely necessary for white collar careers (i.e. college education or higher training/certifications) are becoming less valuable for particular roles; subsequently, some of the roles themselves are now obsolete. We’re seeing a major decrease in roles where one’s responsibilities would entail managing other knowledge workers, which is massively impacting the job market as a whole. Furthermore, Eddie and I discuss other future innovations, such as artificial intelligence, that are already shifting things within the economy and the employment sphere.

Trillion Energy's Cash Flow to Double in Coming Weeks

We were joined by Trillion Energy’s (TCF 🇨🇦: TRLEF 🇺🇸: Z62 🇩🇪) CEO Arthur Halleran for a sponsor update. First, Art dispelled all concerns of a possible equity raise. He explained that the ongoing drill program well-funded, with materials and consumables for the first 7 wells currently being warehoused at their onshore facility. The company has ample cash on hand, and as additional wells come on-stream, cash flow will only increase. They received a $6.9 million cash call from their partner and another $7 million is expected in March. Art emphasized that he is not looking to dilute his shareholdings any further. To date, Trillion has drilled 4 wells to completion. Two are producing, and the other two are awaiting equipment to finish perforation and production. The equipment has been delayed slightly due to the recent earthquake. Art explains, this is nothing out of the ordinary. When you’re drilling in water, logistics issues always arise. One of these wells is quite prolific, with 73 meters of measured pay. Once production ramps up, Art expects cash flow to double from its present level. He had more good news; SASB reserves are going up substantially. As the company drills more wells and produces ever more gas, reserves are soaring. Trillion’s reserve valuation, a net present value basis, is way higher. And the increase will continue as more wells come on-stream, at least 13 for 2023 and even more for 2024. With more wells, comes more cash flow. At some point, the market will make a startling discovery that Trillion is selling at a huge discount. Once perception equals reality, shareholders like us will see huge returns on their investment. https://TrillionEnergy.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

The Oil Patch Isn’t Going Anywhere - Dee Carter #5730

Summary: Energy prices are heading up, but the CPI isn’t. What’s really happening in the energy sector, and how is it being affected by the economy at large? Dee Carter appears on the show to provide us with some insight, and emphasizes that the real concern exists in the oil/petroleum department. We’re not consuming as much right now because we had a relatively icy winter—causing people to drive less—but ultimately prices will go back up as consumption returns to normal. Although we’ve seen majo advocacy for green energy in the political space, everything that we’re doing is built around the petroleum industry, so it’s not disappearing anytime soon. With five major refineries working at 100% capacity, there is a large supply of oil that has yet to become available for use. Dee suggests that we need to be an exporter of products in order to bring the CPI down once again, and says that it is necessary to reconsider investment strategies for income going forward.

FURY Targets New Gold Discovery Opportunities with CEO Tim Clark

We were joined for a sponsor update by Fury Gold Mines’ CEO Tim Clark and Exploration SVP Bryan Atkinson ( FURY). The good news keeps on coming. 2022’s last three drill holes were recently released. Multiple zones of high-grade gold were drilled at the Hinge Target, including 22.77 g/t Gold over 1.5 meters. So far, they hit gold in 55% of the Hinge drill holes. In addition, they just defined six targets along the Cannard Deformation Zone at Lac Clarkie. CEO Clark was quite pleased with these results. 2022 marked a year of transformation for Fury. Among the highlights were the sale of Homestake Ridge project to Dolly Varden Silver for cash and shares, and the disposition of C$6.8 from a partial sale of their position. Closing of a C$11 million private placement that brought on a Canadian corporate investor and a well-know US institutional investor. Consolidation of the Éléonore South Joint Venture with Newmont, thus facilitating the JV’s drilling. 25% extension of mineralization at West Eau Claire along with multiple stacked zones of gold mineralization at the Hinge Target. Finally, the completion of their Eau Claire 17,700m drill program. And of the course the stock rebounded well off its 2022 low. With all these accomplishments, CEO Clarke avers that Fury is a different company today than it was prior to his taking the helm. 2023 promises to be an even more pivotal year. SVP Atkinson is currently analyzing the data and results and is in the process of setting up the 2023 program, for which the cash is in the bank. With so many choices this is no easy task. He stated that at least part of the program will be directed towards the new Cannard targets. As Clark promised, the news flow has quickened as have the results.

As a lagging indicator, a negative report translates to an economy that is already on its way down—and has been for a while.

Consumer Sentiment Overview: The latest consumer sentiment numbers have been released, and they offer a glimpse into the state of the economy and what to expect in terms of inflation. Consumer sentiment is a measure of how consumers feel about the current and future state of the economy, and it is considered a key indicator of consumer spending and economic growth. The latest numbers show a slight increase in consumer sentiment, indicating that consumers are feeling more confident about the economy and their personal financial situation. This increase in consumer sentiment is a positive sign for the economy, as it suggests that consumers are more likely to spend money, which drives economic growth and job creation. Higher consumer spending can also lead to increased demand for goods and services, which can cause prices to rise. However, the increase in consumer sentiment must be viewed in the context of other economic indicators, such as the rate of inflation. Inflation is a measure of the overall increase in prices for goods and services in an economy, and it can have a significant impact on consumer spending and the overall health of the economy. The latest consumer sentiment numbers suggest that inflation could be a concern in the near future, as higher consumer spending and increased demand for goods and services could drive up prices. This could result in a decrease in consumer spending and a slowdown in economic growth, as consumers become less confident in their personal financial situation. In conclusion, the latest consumer sentiment numbers are a mixed bag, offering both positive and negative indicators for the economy. While the increase in consumer sentiment is a positive sign, it must be viewed in the context of other economic indicators, such as inflation, in order to understand its full impact. As always, it is important to stay informed about the latest economic trends and to make informed decisions about your finances.

Tackling the Consumer Credit Crisis - Matthew Johnson #5725

Summary: The most recent consumer credit read was announced, and the number is quite interesting. What is going on exactly, and what is the Fed going to do about it? Matthew Johnson, President and CEO of Johnson Wealth and Income Management, comes on the show to discuss this topic and strategies for addressing the credit problem. Consumer debt started to fall off in December of 2022, yielding $7.3 billion. This signaled the start of a cut in spending, wherein consumers are beginning to feel the pinch of high costs and re-evaluate their expenses. Unfortunately, the average consumer is not in a position where their wages can support their buying needs, causing an increase in credit card debt. We should expect at least two more rate hikes before the Fed decides to halt, and it’s crucial to start planning for the challenges that lay ahead. Tune in to find out how you can start preparing now.  Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Johnson Wealth and Income ManagementThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Peter Schiff joins us in this episode to address the core problems of today’s dysfunctional economy, and things to consider in preparation for the downfall of the dollar.

Credit is Crashing - Paul Oster #5723

Summary: Consumer credit appears to be crashing, and the rate of increase on credit card debt is slowing down, which means that there has never been a more opportune time to pay off your credit cards than now. Paul Oster, the CEO of Better Qualified, comes on the show to unpack what’s happening with consumer credit, and why it is sinking at this particular time. Paul describes all of the pressures of the economy that are pushing the consumers under water; with providers raising prices left and right, driving costs up, it’s getting difficult to tread water. Ultimately, we must change our behavior if we want a brighter, debt-less future. These changes can start with small savings, such as eliminating various monthly subscriptions. Paul says that consumers are often surprised to find that they have more money than they think, and have merely been spending it in the wrong places.

The Elites Still Rule - Doug Casey #5720

Summary: Thought leader Doug Casey joins us in this episode to discuss the endangerment of critical thinking, posing major risks for global politics and the economic future alike. Doug attributes the root of the problem to increased support for organized coercion—a system that only looks attractive when economics and history are excluded from the equation. This lack of background knowledge and reasoning is already giving way to major difficulties (i.e. trade and food supply chain) and we’re subsequently seeing the dissolution of the globalist model. The government’s survival mode tactics may adversely affect the survival of its people, and it’s only a matter of time before this becomes even more clear. Tune in for more insight.

January Job Report: How Did We Get Here? - Brad Williams #5719

Summary: While we had hoped that the latest job report would provide useful figures, it seems to be bogus. Brad Williams sits down with me to take a deeper look into the report and talk about how/why the employment situation has evolved in the way that it has. The job market remains strong in some locations due to large quantities of people moving to those places, but this is not the situation in every region. With the interest rate rise, the housing market has slowed significantly, and there is a direct relationship between increases in interest rates and the amount of money needed to service the national debt. As the rate of increases diminishes, Brad advises investing conservatively, and to pay close attention as we transition.

January Jobs Report is Too Good to be True - David Stryzewski #5719

Summary: In last week’s report, the job numbers came out surprisingly high, but is it too good to be true? David Stryzewski comes on the show to discuss these numbers and the way they have been purposefully distorted over the last few months. The high number of jobs is a product of seasonal adjustment—in which 3 million jobs were added in order to come up with the most recent figure. If we look back at November and December, 2.4 million jobs were subtracted to subsequently come up with these numbers. We should not invest our attention in these reports since they do not reflect accuracy; rather, we should anticipate a future that is somewhere between what the Fed thinks and what the market actually believes.

2023 Gold Outlook With Andy Schectman #5717

Summary: Metals prices are getting slammed, sending gold and silver down. Andy Schectman comes on the show to talk about the circumstances of precious metals which, while frustrating, do not discredit the value of these assets during this time. Volatile conditions and the possibility of the London Metals Exchange running out of silver in 2023 speak to the fragility of the system. Gold and silver are not commodities; rather, they are the barometer for the health of the dollar and the US economy. Furthermore, Andy emphasizes that the valuation of gold and silver are not subject to counterpart liability, which will make the precious metals even more attractive as the effects of interest rate hikes sink in.

FPX Nickel Proves Low-Cost Clean Nickel Mining Process with CEO Martin Turenne

FPX Nickel’s (OTC: FPOCF — TSX-V: FPX) CEO Martin Turenne joined us for a much-awaited sponsor update. The Baptiste Project pilot plant’s results are in, and they are quite positive. The novel environmentally clean process of extracting nickel from lower grade deposits, without toxic smelting, has exceeded all expectations. The end product yielded a 65% nickel concentrate, with an impressive 85+% recovery rate. Martin is confident that a commercial-scale plant will produce 100 million pounds per annum. With nickel at $13 per pound, and costs of $3 per pound, there’s a huge profit margin. Even at $10 nickel the profits are enormous.The naysayers who doubted FPX’s ability to profitably produce high-grade nickel from low grade deposits have all been proven wrong. FPX recently announced a $12 million investment by a corporate strategic investor means that the pieces are falling into place. (The well-known company requested confidentiality for now.) FPX’s current stock price of CAD$.43 means that the market hasn’t yet to factor in these important developments. The company’s Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) is expected in September. FPX is sitting on CAD$18 million and is fully funded for the foreseeable future. The Van Project discovery promises to be larger than Baptiste but is currently on the back burner. It is also not reflected in the share price. Both are among the largest undeveloped nickel deposits in the world. The nickel market’s demand characteristics are highly positive. The rushed conversion to Electric Vehicles, coupled with a lack of environmentally friendly sources, means that FPX’s project will come into production at exactly the right time. Upstream users such as Tesla, Ford and GM have been rushing to secure battery metals sources and gone directly to the producers. GM’s recent $650 million investment in Lithium America is but one example. The US Inflation Recovery Act (IRA) is adding even more fuel to the fire. Its generous subsidies and favorable pro-development policies are highly positive for both the Canadian battery metals and FPX. Martin is moving quickly to secure these benefits for FPX. The stars are aligning for FPX. Martin is quite clear that these projects will require a major company to take over to fully exploit these reserves. News flow has been brisk and will increase in anticipation of FPX’s PFS. This bodes well for shareholders and the end users who are anxious to work with companies such as FPX.

Tier One Silver Identifies Copper Porphyry Targets with CEO Peter Dembicki

Tier One Silver’s (TSXV: TSLV, OTCQB: TSLVF) CEO Peter Dembicki and Exploration SVP Christian Rios provided us with a sponsor update. Extensive CSAMT surveying has identified two promising copper porphyry targets. Drill targets are currently being defined. This will be a focus of their Q2 ’23 5000-meter drill program. CEO Dembicki explains that “While silver remains the focus at Curibaya, we have a fantastic potential porphyry target … that can’t be ignored. We’re on a prolific copper porphyry belt in Southern Peru with many giant mines, all within 100 kilometers of us to the north and south. We just happen to be in a fortunate situation where we have a preserved precious metals epithermal system and then residing below is this potential copper porphyry target.” SVP Rios said, “We believe the targets we’ve identified could be associated with a porphyry copper system at depth, particularly considering the absolute dating results, which indicate the mineralization to be from the Paleocene era. This provides further evidence that we are in the correct regional environment as the similar Paleocene-aged giant porphyry copper deposits nearby. We look forward to testing these strong targets in our next drill campaign.” CEO Dembicki reflected that while metals’ prices have come roaring back ($24 silver and $4 copper) and Tier One’s share price is up 50%, it’s still very early in the cycle and he’s expecting a major move ahead. Once the next drill program commences, Tier One will become the tier one choice for sector investors, which is why we’re maintaining our position.

Three big central banks are having meetings this week and are supposed to raise interest rates. This implies the potential for surprise, and to induce one of two outcomes: sending the markets into a relief rally or sending stocks crashing. With uncertainty of what the outcome of these meetings will bring, there has undoubtedly been a shrinkage of trust amongst individuals.

How to Stay on the Right Side of the Cycle - Michael Pento #5711

Summary: The markets are on a bounce, and yet, layoffs are more plentiful than ever. This is not the beginning of a bull market or an upward shift in economic growth; rather, inflation is disguising the inevitable recession ahead. Here to dispel the confusion and discuss what’s truly happening is Michael Pento, President and Founder of Pinto Portfolio Strategies. Michael emphasizes that real economic growth is shrinking while GDP is going up. While the Bureau of Labor Statistics came out with a better-than-expected number of unemployed individuals, this provides little hope amidst the large-scale layoffs at big corporations. Moreover, the death of inflation has been grossly exaggerated, with the monetization of debt being the root cause of our inflationary circumstance.

Summary: Businesses are pushing for their employees to return to the workplace, which has generated a lot of push back amongst workers in numerous fields. Here to discuss this is Carl Gould, who is not surprised at the collective reluctance to go back to the office. For the last two years, people have adjusted to the ‘new normal,’ and the thought of transitioning back can be daunting.

The Age of Financialization - Emmanuel Daniel #5709

Here to discuss this is Emmanuel Daniel, a global thought leader in the future of finance. He describes the latest instances of data commodification as just one example of businesses seeking to financialize everything, and these trends are becoming extremely prevalent. Moreover, as people begin to gravitate towards alternative assets, it’s crucial to bear in mind that they subscribe to the same rules of the market and can be more volatile in early stages. Looking ahead, the US and other major economies will continue to generate debt, causing investors to question long term sustainability and where to put their trust.

Don’t Outlive Your Money Supply - Anthony Saccaro #5708

Summary: Most working individuals want to retire at some point. In fact, we spend the entirety of our careers contributing to (most likely) the most expensive purchase that we’ll ever make: a retirement fund. How does one make sure that they set aside the right amount of money for retirement, generating enough income to survive off of during the final phase of life? Anthony Saccaro has been a retirement advisor for 23 years, and appears in this episode to talk about what you may not know about preparing for retirement—so that you don’t get hurt later on. He contends that the biggest mistake you can make is not being invested appropriately for the phase of life you’re in. A lot of people neglect to shift their portfolio when they transition phases, and this adjustment can have a massive affect on your retirement fund. Furthermore, it’s important to enlist the help of an advisor that is an income specialist, and to build a fund that is sustainable in any scenario.

The Buyers are Back - Debbie Bloyd #5707

Summary: Changes in the economy bring about subsequent changes in the housing market, which have been more prominent than ever in the post-pandemic world. Is it possible that we’ve seen the lows and housing is making a comeback? Texas-based mortgage broker Debbie Bloyd comes on the show to talk about what she is observing in real estate, and it looks as if people are returning to the markets in search of their future home. Interest rate fluctuations and intense bidding wars last year caused many people to put their home purchase on hold, and rent rather than buy. As these leases come to an end, buyers are circling back to the housing market in hopes of finding the property they want at a more reasonable price. Whether or not prices are coming down, however, is still relatively dependent upon the seller. While some need to sell more urgently, others are riding out the storm, set on a very specific price.

This ETF Puts Performance Over Politics - Adam Curran #5706

Summary: We talked about the God Bless America ETF back in October 2022 and it has performed extremely well since—beating a lot of the major indices. In this episode I sit down with Adam Curran, the creator of the ETF, who has been dreaming of this moment ever since he first visited the New York Stock Exchange as a child. Adam attributes the success of the fund to his somewhat aberrant strategy: focusing on businesses that put profit over politics. As many big corporations get tied up with every political conversation, Adam believes that it is critical for businesses to stay focused on performance, and looks for these sort of companies when investing.

Moving Towards a Secular Bear Market - Jim Welsh #5705

Summary: As we quickly approach the end of January, many are wondering what is in store for the rest of 2023 with regard to inflation rates and the markets. Is the Fed going to follow through on lowering inflation, and how will this affect the rest of the economy? Jim Welsh comes on the show to talk about some of the things that will take place this year, and assures us that the Fed is very intent on sticking to their guns—meaning that we can expect inflation to make its way down to 3%. Although Wall Street is skeptical, Jim reminds us that getting inflation to 3% is doable; on the other hand, taking inflation below 3% will be the tricky endeavor. Jim, among a number of experts, expects that we will see a recession this year and that the effort of globalization will unwind. Furthermore, a combination of factors will result in a secular bear market, which Jim elaborates on in his latest piece. Tune in to this episode for more insight.

Seeking Refuge in the Blockchain - Matt Leising #5703

Summary: We’re already in the second half of January, and many are wondering what’s in store for crypto this year. Are we going to see more decentralized finance, or is the system going to reclaim its power? Here to discuss this is former Bloomberg reporter, Matt Leising, who discusses some of the implications of currency decentralization—the most impactful one being that the middle man is eliminated. Matt explains why this is such a game changer, and how smart contracts speed up the transaction process; additionally, crypto helps to eliminate Western Union fees and allows for the seamless transport of money to/from places with fewer banks. Matt emphasizes that crypto is not an attempt to replace the current monetary system, but that it offers a viable alternative for those wanting to protect their capital against inflation and unforeseen obstacles in the economy.

Happy Days Are Here, but for How Long? - Ed Siddell #5700

Summary: We’re halfway through the first month of 2023 and consumer sentiment is better than expected. Will the January effect continue, and are good times here to stay? Edward Siddell comes on the show to talk about this, and is unsurprised by consumer sentiment given everything else going on. With rising inflation comes a subsequent rise in credit, meaning that people’s spending ability was unaffected during the holiday season.

Regenx Tech -- The Future of Precious Metals Recovery with CEO Greg Pendura

We sat down with, sponsor Regenx Tech's (TSX-V: RGX - OTCQB: RGXTF) CEO Greg Pendura and their US division's President Rick Purdy. The company is engaged in economically recovering large amounts of platinum and palladium from discarded diesel catalytic converters, most of which were headed for the landfill. They have first mover advantage. Purdy's commitment to the company led him and his family's move to the US. Impressed with the technology, we invested in shares. Last summer we visited the company's newly perfected pilot plant, while it was planning an industrial scale facility. Regenx's oversubscribed rights offering enabled it to begin building its Tennessee plant. The situs was no accident; it's located in close proximity to one of the Southeast's leading recycling companies, thereby insuring a near endless supply of discarded diesel converters. Regenx has a huge advantage over potential competitors, who would need to build a raw material supply chain from scratch. Regenx's proprietary process is an example of a green technology that is ready for primetime. In an eco-friendly manner, It recovers 90+% of platinum/palladium embedded in a diesel catalytic converter. Before Regenx, the choice was to smelt the metal out in a very dirty and uneconomical process. As a result over 2/3 of diesel catalytic converters presently find their way to landfills. That's all about to change, with plant completion expected in Q1, production is slated for Q2 of 2023. The cash flow potential is enormous as is the scalability. We could eventually see Regenx plants pop up around the globe.

Summary: To kick off the new year, John Rubino and I sit down and chat about expectations for 2023—specifically in regard to the state of the economy. One of the Fed branches announced that we are in a recession, which is a fair assessment given all of the recessionary indicators that can be observed. We’ve been seeing slowed growth for quite some time now, and should expect to see even more of decline going forward.

Building a Culture of Cybersecurity - Bryant Tow #5680

Summary: Now is the time to be the most vigilant and think ahead about how you secure your personal data. Security expert Bryant Tow comes on the show to inform us about this. Oftentimes, people go as long as 100 days without knowing that an account of theirs has been hacked. How does this happen? Bryant explains the difference between open and closed operating systems and the risks to be aware of, but adequate cyber safety boils down to understanding what phishing looks like, looking for security measures (i.e. Captcha), and avoiding password reuse. Tune in for more insight from Bryant on how to protect your data. Highlights: -How do you know if you’re being hacked? It can take over a hundred days to even realize that you’ve been hacked -Most adversaries establish command and control, and patch the vulnerability so that it will no longer show up in a scan but remain in your system -The Mac OS is closed, meaning you have to go through the company to get your application out on their store -Android is open, so anyone can develop an application. Adversaries are more likely to target these devices because it is easier -Bryant talks about the importance of empowering users rather than treating them as the weakest link -Even if all technical aspects are perfect, half of the attack surface is still open -Technology can only function as well as your process. We have to build a culture of security and make it something that people think about on a day to day basis -Bryant’s business offers training for phishing awareness—measuring how susceptible individuals are to phishing tactics -Bryant discusses several types of phishing methods used by adversaries -The most common hacking method is achieved through password reuse -Online shopping sites report that 60% of people will abandon their cart if their are no security measures on the site (i.e. captcha) Useful Links: Financial Survival Network bryant.tow@leapfrogservices.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Summary: Looking for your next investment opportunity? Whether you live within or outside Canada, there is a Canadian based investment opportunity with high potential for profit, and Matthew Ablakan comes on the show to inform us about it. Matthew exhibited an entrepreneurial spirit growing up, and bought his first pre-construction property at just 19 years old. This launched him into a full time career as an entrepreneur, and he created the Millennial’s Choice Group to assist clients with real estate, mortgages, insurance, and education. Although interest rates are rising in the U.S. and Canada, Matthew highlights the profitability of investing in pre-construction properties in Ontario, especially given that interest can be written off.

He attended university to study law, and bought his first pre-construction condo at 19 years old -Matthew recommends a backwards approach, bringing an education-based strategy to sales -US interest rates and Canadian interest rates are going up. Will this impact sales?

Plan for the Worst and Hope for the Best - Dave Scranton #5677

Summary: The stock market may be going up, but we’re worried about the Fed making a misstep. Dave Scranton comes on the show to unpack the current interest rate situation, explaining why they shot up sporadically and what needs to happen going forward. Ultimately, the Fed started this process too late and reacted too drastically, resulting in an undesirable outcome for everyone. Dave suggests that we need congressional support, with business friendly and pro supply chain policies to properly manage inflation. Tune in for more insight, and for expert advice on how to protect your finances in the meantime. Highlights: -They’re not getting a lot of legislative help in regard to managing inflation, and their only available tool is raising rates -What will happen if the Fed arises 75 basis points? The markets will react negatively, because we’re starting to see inflation getting more tame. Ultimately, the Fed started late and reacted too drastically -We need Congressional support. With inflation, we can squash down demand, but this could kill the economy before it kills inflation -This situation requires smart policies coming out of D.C. that are business friendly and pro supply chain -Dave likes to focus on what we can control within our personal finances. Plan for everything up until the catastrophic worst -Evaluate what you can do/provide that people actually need -The only way to protect yourself is to put your money into things that generate enough money and dividends so that you are not worried about daily principal fluctuations Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Sound Income GroupThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Howard Yaruss is Making Economics Understandable - Howard Yaruss #5676

Summary: Understanding the economy is a lot easier than you think, and Howard Yaruss comes on this episode to prove it. His newest book, Understandable Economics, fosters a comprehensive understanding of the spectrum of markets—outlining clear justifications for government intervention and the creation and allocation of goods/services. Rather than labelling some markets ‘free’ and others ‘controlled,’ it is more helpful to explore the degrees to which each market utilizes both characteristics. Tune in to hear us discuss the most useful fundamentals of the economy, and be sure to check out Howard’s book for a fruitful source of concepts and explanations. Highlights: -Howard Yaruss discusses his new book, Understandable Economics -Howard is an attorney, author, business man, and professor at NYU -Howard believes that economics is not readily understandable because it is frequently not taught correctly. You may leave an economics course with even more confusion about how the economy works -Economics is not a science; it’s about producing and dividing up all of the goods and services that govern our world -His book is not economics for dummies; rather, it is an effort to explain economics as it should be explained -Markets exist on a spectrum. Every nation has some government control—even North Korea has some element of free markets -Free markets are like a highway. They are a great system of transportation, but if there were no rules, they wouldn’t work. -There should always be a clear justification for government intervention, but when they overreach, they create a negative view of the government -People need to get involved and understand what is going on in the economy, and Howard’s book contributes to this. -If the market isn’t working, then it is acceptable for the government to get involved in funding the progress of innovations like EVs. -You can’t dictate a transition just because the market isn’t ready for it yet. It’s important to let the markets work it out -A lot of people believe that the government is the spender of last resorts -We shouldn’t be for or against regulation. It’s all about coming to an agreement on what regulations are necessary and helpful Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Understandable EconomicsThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

You Can’t Run the World on Debt - Russell Stone #5675

Summary: I invite Russell Stone on the show to talk about what’s really happening with the employment numbers, because the data put out is often manipulated—failing to account for several criteria. Although it seems that jobs have gone up, Russell suggests that this could be attributed to old jobs resurfacing rather than organic growth. Furthermore, we discuss the underlying problem of the US dollar, which is that we are backed by credit that is eventually going to run out. For more insight and tips for how to prepare for the bumpy ride ahead, be sure to tune in to this episode. Highlights: -You can’t always take what you’re given from government sources because there is a lot of manipulation within these numbers -No one talks about the birth to death ratio, which alters the job numbers quite a bit -The trend over the last three months has been stagnant -Are these new jobs being created, or old jobs that people were laid off from? Russell believes it might be the latter option rather than organic growth -Wages went up 5.1%, but the real inflation number is close to 15% -They used to include fuel, food, energy, and housing when calculating inflation, but they no longer account for these factors. -History tells us that we’re ready for a large correction -There is no easy solution for this, and we should prepare ourselves for a bottom -The production value of oil is ten times greater than any other commodity -Countries are pulling away from purchasing our oil because of the fear that we can’t support our dollar -We have to change the way we interact globally, which is going to come at the price of the dollar -You can’t run the world on debt, and the governments can’t beat the economy -Russell tells his clients to put a percentage of their money into silver -Silver has the greatest upside over gold -Stay away from the markets until they reach the bottom. Focus on cash-flow investments right now, and the things that are bringing you money -Check the ratings of your banks and insurance companies to make sure that you’re prepared for what’s to come Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Scranton Financial GroupThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

The Future According to Charts and Cycles - Charles Nenner #5674

Summary: What’s in store for inflation and the markets? Charles Nenner comes on the show to discuss some financial charts and explain how cycles work. We’re in an inflationary cycle that could go on for the greater part of a decade, and we can expect low inflation until February of next year. This cycle correlates with the prices of things like food and energy, and will determine how the Fed feels at any given moment. Tune in for more analytical insight from Charles. Highlights: -We’re in an inflationary cycle that could go on for quite a while—as long as a decade -We can expect low inflation until February of next year -This cycle is going to correlate with food prices and energy prices -Understanding these cycles makes investing more low risk because you can determine when it’s going up/down -Is the Fed going to be strict? It depends on how we feel at the moment, and cycles determine these feelings -Energy prices are headed lower until the end of the year -We are in the thick of the war cycle, and we have a new one coming in the middle of next year -There is a dominant hundred year cycle tied to war Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Charles NennerThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Inside the Mind of a Spy - Chris S. Simmons #5673

Summary: Recognizing red flags is helpful within personal relationships, but it can also help investigators unravel complex crimes. Chris S. Simmons, the author of Castro’s Nemesis, is extremely familiar with these behavioral analyses. He talks about discovering a subject that happened to be someone he already worked with—which was a surreal experience. Tune in for fascinating glimpses inside the mind of a spy, and be sure to check out Chris’s book linked below. Highlights: -After three years of working with a few puzzle pieces, they narrowed it down to 10,000 people in the US working in an intelligence community. From there, they narrowed it down to 50 people, and three weeks later they found their subject -Chris describes finding the subject surreal, especially because they knew her personally -A big life lesson Chris learned was to follow people’s actions and behaviors rather than their words -If you’re leading a double life, they will eventually coincide -How do you train people to recognize red flags? To train people, Chris commonly sends people to restaurants or other public places to try and read the people in the environment and their situations -We are emotional creatures. Every decision you will make in life is based on emotion, but we use logic to reinforce that we made the right decision. -Considering our personal biases, you have a 50% chance of gauging someone’s body language correctly Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Castro's Nemesis: True Stories of a Master Spy-CatcherThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

The Cure Is Worse than the Disease - Jim Welsh #5672

Summary: As rates continue to increase, it is difficult to pinpoint the Fed’s plan for the year ahead. I sit down and chat with Jim Welsh, who explains the thinking behind the rate increases and how to plan ahead using this information. Jim predicts that the Fed is going to keep the funds rate and monetary policy tighter for a longer period of time. Ultimately, we’re going to have to address problems that have been building up for decades, and although inflation will be reduced, it’s still going to hold above 3% for a while. Tune in for more valuable insight from Jim. Highlights: -Back in March/April, no one thought they were going to raise the Fed funds rate. By summer, people started to panic about rates going up -Rates increasing by 50 basis points does not represent a pivot -They are going to hold the funds rate at a high level for all of next year -Rather than jamming on the breaks to ease, they’re aiming to do it in a gradual manner—which will probably lead to a recession -We don’t have enough people to fill the jobs that are open, which is problematic -Energy prices will probably stay at a higher plateau -Globalization helped to bring costs down over the last 20 years -We’re going to see a reduction of inflation, but it’s probably going to hold above 3%. From there, we will see what the Fed decides to do. -We’re still seeing supply chain issues, commodity shortages, and high deficit -Either we’ve already started a bear market in the stock market, or we are about to -We’re going to have to address problems that have been building up for decades -Buy and hold isn’t working because the market isn’t buying higher highs -Every secular bull market has been followed by a secular bear market -China has used real estate residential development to power the economy -Real estate, however, will not continue to support the demographic it has -The risk of China going after Taiwan is rising -The secular bear market affects a lot of things -Rather than buying and holding, focus on being tactical Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Macro Tides jimwelshmacro@gmail.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Victims of Our Own Success - Edward Siddell #5671

Summary: As we start the final month of the year, sentiment is not looking great. The market is indecisive, and employment, confidence, and decisiveness are all intertwined, Edward Siddell comes on the show to discuss what’s in store for 2023, starting with the fact that we are a victim of our own success. We’ve pushed inflation all the way around the world, and the enlarging debt bubble has to pop eventually. Edward advises us to be cautiously optimistic during this time—being meticulous and adopting strategies for the year ahead. Amongst other market uncertainties, one should pay special attention to the energy sector as a solid area of investment for 2023. Tune in for more insight Highlights: -They’re not shedding jobs at a record rate yet, but this could change within the first month of the new year -There were close to 150,000 layoffs last month -We’re becoming a victim of our own success. We pushed inflation all the way around the world—importing goods and spreading the devaluing dollar -The debt bubble is inevitably going to pop -There is a correlation between the race to liquidity and all other consumer debt -The 22 million jobs we lost over COVID are getting filled in again, so next year we will probably see this number go down -You need to be cautiously optimistic in times like this. It’s important to be meticulous and have a thorough understanding of what is going on -Real estate prices are going higher, with lots of regional variation within the US -People can’t afford the houses that are out there right now, so renting is the more popular option -Edward suggests investing in the energy sector. Our oil reserves are at the lowest they’ve been since the 80s. As the reserve begins to dwindle, Edward estimates that prices will skyrocket next winter.

It’s a Good Time to Not be ‘Interested’ in Credit - Matthew Johnson #5670

Summary: Between Black Friday and Cyber Monday there were over 61 million transactions, but not because inflation is getting better. I sit down and chat with Matthew Johnson, who points out that, as businesses make it increasingly easy to pay using credit, interest on these lines of credit is simultaneously skyrocketing. Credit card companies are taking full advantage of higher interest rates, and the problem isn’t being resolved any time soon. Tune in to hear more on this topic and to learn how you can be financially defensive in these circumstances. Highlights: -The items that had the biggest purchase increase under buy now and pay later were food and beverage related -We are up tremendously in debt, and credit card companies are taking full advantage of higher interest rates -The average interest rate on a new credit line opened today is over 22% -We have grown to expect that the government is always going to come to the rescue -Both people who have and don’t have money are spending -We need to be careful with how we are spending are money because interest rates are not done going up quite yet -There is a lot of potential pain to come between now and the new year Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Johnson Wealth and Income ManagementThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3244966/advertisement

Torq's Gold--Copper Discovery Defines an 800m Strike at Margarita Project

We received a further sponsor update from Torq Resources' (OTCQX:TRBMF -- TSX.V: TORQ) CEO/Chair Shawn Wallace and Chief Geological Officer Michael Henrichsen. There's been a steady stream of positive news and the pace is accelerating. The company announced that it has defined a gold--copper mineralized system over an impressive 800 meter strike length at the Falla 13 discovery (in its Margarita project). Most notable among the results: 64 m of 0.63 g/t gold (Au) and 0.63% copper (Cu) in 22MAR-017R, 130 m of 0.36 g/t Au and 0.28% Cu (including 30 m of 1.02 g/t Au and 0.57% Cu) in 22MAR-023R, and 62 m of 0.51 g/t Au and 0.38% Cu (including 16 m of 1.6 g/t Au and 0.98% Cu), in 22MAR-024R.'' CEO Wallace stated, "The successful completion of the second drill program at Margarita marks an important milestone for the project and the Company. It is incredible that less than one year ago, Margarita was a prospect without a single drill hole." Chief Geological Officer Henrichsen concurred, "With our second phase of drilling complete at the Margarita project we have been able to delineate a mineralized body over an 800m strike length in a short amount of time. Over the next several months we will refine our targets through additional soil sampling with an emphasis on gold, additional induced polarization (IP) lines in the northern region of the project and continued geologic mapping. We look forward to outlining our third phase drill program for the project.” The inaugural drill program at the Santa Cecilia project is next on the agenda. Torq expects major results here as well. CEO Wallace says: "I've never been more excited in my career...I cannot wait for this drill program. I'm giddy about it...The rarity of being able to go work on something like this...It's a dream come true." As Henrichsen said, "Torq is tracking in the right direction." Major progress is being made on its projects and investors will eventually realize the rewards of Torq's aggressive strategy.

Summary: Kyle O’Dell has a long history in the financial sector, and comes on the show to give his take on the latest GDP numbers.
