Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Hodge Family Office, joins me for a longer-format discussion on and the macroeconomic themes and fundamental drivers that that are continuing to push the purchasing power of the US dollar down and most other asset classes higher. Nick shares how he has been successfully “buying the dip” in gold, silver, copper, rare earths, uranium, and lithium stocks. We start off reviewing how the US fiscal policy and the Fed's upcoming monetary policy is leading to a weaker US dollar, which has been a key tailwind to US equities, cryptos, and the commodities sectors. Nick points out that the “Fed is not your friend,” and that the coming rate cuts will be further debasing the dollar's purchasing power, which is going to send real assets higher in response. We review the impacts of the back-to-back Biden and Trump administration large fiscal policy bills, that increased the national debt burden, which has been a boon to the precious metals sector, as a hedge against fiscal malfeasance and as a way to protect purchasing power. Many of the government fiscal bills passed the last few years have had provisions in them for accelerating the development of nuclear power infrastructure and uranium mining, and they have provisions included to fund boosting domestic supplies and refinement of critical minerals like rare earths, antimony, tungsten, copper, lithium, and many other strategic critical minerals. We discuss how all this attention at the federal level in the US and in many nations abroad is bringing in new investors to resource investing. With regards to the precious metals, Nick has continued building up positions in quality explorers through private placements, as well as buying larger companies with exposure to rising gold and silver prices on pullbacks. He noted the example of picking up a position in Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD), during the corrective move that played out after their announcement of the acquisition of Sandstorm Gold. Next we got into the longer-term structural supply demand fundamentals underlying the copper market, and that it has been in an upward trajectory for the last handful of years. When the recent volatility from the initial reaction to the copper tariffs to the reversal back down once there was more clarity around what precisely would get tariffs, Nick took the opportunity to exit his domestic copper producer position in Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX). He chose instead to then position back outside of the US via buying the dip in Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN) (OTCQX: IVPAF), after it pulled down on some short-duration challenges. He also flagged his recent private placement into the earlier-stage prospect generator, Kincora Copper Limited (TSXV: KCC) (ASX: KCC), with exploration properties looking for copper and gold porphyries in Australia. The conversation then turns to growing generalist interest in the rare earths sector in particular, especially after the recent Department of Defense investment into MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) as a key stakeholder, but also providing them a floor on their Neodymium products, and agreeing to be a buyer future magnet production. Then, shortly thereafter, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) made a $500M investment into MP Materials to accelerate and help fund the future development of a permanent magnet recycling plant in Texas. Nick points to CoTec Holdings Corp. (TSXV:CTH)(OTCQB:CTHCF), as another company poised to start recycling permanent magnets, also in Texas. Additionally, he highlights the heavy rare earth production capacity increasing from Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR) (NYSE American: UUUU). We reviewed the news out this week of the MOU between Energy Fuels and Vulcan Elements, focused on ex-China high-purity "light" and "heavy" rare earth oxides for production of rare earth permanent magnets in the United States, using high-purity NdPr and Dy oxides refined in Utah. This transitioned the discussion to the volatile year, to the upside and downside, in the nuclear and uranium stocks, and Nick pointed out the good opportunities to buy the dip in the sector throughout this year on pullbacks. In addition to the positive response from the multiple executive orders and fiscal bills passed surrounding nuclear power and the nuclear fuel cycle, Nick highlights that companies like Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE American: UEC) and Anfield Energy Inc. (TSX.V: AEC) (OTCQB: ANLDF) were both approved for federal fast-track permitting. Nick also highlights his recent participation in the private placement financing for North Shore Uranium Ltd. (TSXV:NSU), and how he's done well with this management team in the past on other companies, why he finds the current project fundamentals compelling. Wrapping up we got into how even the lithium space has presented a “buy the dip” moment recently, and that both the underlying metals price and the related equities have bounced and started a trajectory higher. Nick revisits the case for a company he's done quite well in during the prior cycle, Patriot Battery Metals Inc. (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF), as well as the value proposition for a new private placement he just participated in with Lion Rock Resources Inc. (TSXV: ROAR) (OTCQB: LRRIF).

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Hodge Family Office, joins us for a longer-format discussion on and the macro and micro themes that are continuing to push the US general equities, cryptocurrencies, and commodities markets ever higher, in an “Everything is awesome,” melt-up higher. Nick shares how he has been positioned early in these trends with rare earths, copper, uranium, and critical minerals stocks. We start off reviewing how the US fiscal policy is leading to a weaker US dollar, which has been a key tailwind to US equities, cryptos, and the commodities sectors. We review the impacts of the back-to-back Biden and Trump administration policies that both increased the US debt and deficits, with the passage of large fiscal policy bills, that have acted as an additional tailwind to the critical minerals and energy metals side of the mining sector. Both the Inflation Reduction Act and the Big Beautiful Bill respectively, had provisions in them for accelerating the development of nuclear power infrastructure and uranium mining, a focus on critical minerals like lithium, rare earths, and copper, and how this is bringing in new investors waking up to how the commodities space is really the building blocks of many other sectors in our economy and daily life. This leads into a more in-depth discussion on the rare earth sector in particular, where Nick notes the recent Department of Defense investment into MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) as a key stakeholder, but also providing them a floor on their Neodymium products, and agreeing to be a buyer future magnet production. Then, shortly thereafter, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) made a $500M investment into MP Materials to accelerate and help fund the future development of a permanent magnet recycling plant in Texas. Nick points to CoTec Holdings Corp. (TSXV:CTH)(OTCQB:CTHCF), as another company poised to start recycling permanent magnets, also in Texas. Additionally, he highlights the heavy rare earth production capacity increasing from Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR) (NYSE American: UUUU), as another way to participate in the tailwinds pushing the rare earth stocks higher. Next we pivoted over to the importance of copper, and the recent move higher in prices on the back of the proposed Trump tariff on this energy metal. Nick flags Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX) as a domestic producer that he feels has been offering investors a good accumulation period on future growing revenues. He also highlights his recent private placement into an earlier-stage prospect generator, Kincora Copper Limited (TSXV: KCC) (ASX: KCC), with exploration properties looking for copper and gold porphyries in Australia. Nick also describes how this company has forged partnerships with AI and technology companies; a trend that he expects to see more of as the mining sector evolves and more companies look to secure their own supply chains. Rounding out the discussion on critical minerals, and providing an example of how to trim and reposition on pullbacks in winning portfolio positions, Nick discussed how he has approached trading around a core position in Bravo Mining Corp. (TSXV: BRVO) (OTCQX: BRVMF). This leads into a segment where Nick shares what changes he has made to how he approached managing his portfolio, and other best practices for trading and investing within the resource sector as this bull market evolves over time.

I have a great crop of 9 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 1. My first article in this podcast is about a favourite stock for ethical and sustainable investors. It's titled Is Apple Stock a Green Investment? Net-Zero Goals and Sustainable Supply Chain. By Saptakee S. Seen on carboncredits.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) is a key player in the fight against climate change. The tech giant runs one of the largest carbon reduction programs worldwide. And over 320 suppliers have committed to using 100% clean energy by 2030. This makes Apple an appealing investment for those who care about the environment and want solid returns. Apple's strong finances enable meaningful change. The company achieved record revenue of $124.3 billion in early 2025, a 4% increase from the year before. In the next quarter, Apple earned $95.4 billion, with an 8% rise in earnings per share. Services revenue also hit $26.6 billion, a significant milestone. This success is crucial for investors focused on carbon reduction… The company has cut global greenhouse gas emissions by over 60% since 2015… MUST READ: Apple's Best Quarter Ever: Q1 FY 2025 Revenue Hits $124.3 Billion, Carbon Emissions Drop Manufacturing emissions account for about 55% of Apple's total carbon footprint. The company nearly halved product manufacturing emissions, dropping from 16.1 million tons in 2020 to 8.2 million tons in 2024. Apple's progress toward carbon neutrality: Goal Carbon Neutral by 2030 Apple produced the world's first carbon-neutral consumer electronics. The Apple Watch lineup and Mac mini achieved this through emissions reductions of over 75%. Remaining emissions were balanced by high-quality carbon credits from nature projects… These carbon-neutral products have key features: Over 30% recycled content by weight 100% recycled aluminum in cases Manufacturing with 100% renewable electricity Recycled Materials Drive Sustainability Apple has made progress in using recycled materials. In 2024, 24% of product materials came from recycled or renewable sources. The company now uses 99% recycled rare earth elements in magnets and 99% recycled cobalt in batteries… Apple's recycling innovations include the Daisy robot, which disassembles used devices to recover rare materials… Additionally, the company plans to use only recycled and renewable materials in its products by 2030… Carbon Market Investment Opportunities Apple invests in high-quality, nature-based carbon credits instead of cheap offsets. It spends up to $400 million through its Restore Fund programs, aiming for 1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide removal each year… Strategic Advantages Through Environmental Leadership Apple's environmental leadership provides many competitive advantages. Its detailed carbon accounting prepares it well for global carbon pricing. Early use of renewable energy and efficient manufacturing gives it cost benefits as energy prices change… Investment Considerations and Risks The company trades at a premium price with a P/E ratio of around 28, which may lead to volatility risks… The stock has seen volatility in 2025, declining about 19% year-to-date. This may present opportunities for long-term investors focused on Apple's sustainability leadership and financial strength… From the above analysis, we can see that Apple Stock is a solid choice for carbon-conscious investors… As global carbon markets expand and ESG investing increases, Apple shines in environmental leadership. Its solid financial resources and focus on transparency make it a top pick for portfolios aimed at climate solutions and sustainable tech.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 2. Unlike the first article featuring a company which is in nearly everyone's portfolio, this second article features a company that is perhaps new to many of you. It's titled Why Temenos Is the Gold Standard in Sustainable Banking Tech—and a Top ESG Investment. It's by Eli Grant and found on ainvest.com. Here are some quotes from the article. Temenos (TEMN.SW) Temenos' ESG credentials are unmatched in its sector. In 2022, it became one of only 13 companies globally to achieve an AAA rating from MSCI's ESG rating system, placing it in the top 8% of all firms assessed. By 2024, Sustainalytics named it a ‘Low Risk' company with an ESG Risk Rating of 11.9—ranking first in its industry and sub-industry, securing the top 2% globally. This stellar performance isn't just about accolades; it reflects tangible actions. The company's carbon emissions calculator, developed with Microsoft and launched at COP27, allows clients to measure their environmental impact from using Temenos Banking Cloud. This tool isn't just a marketing gimmick: banks using its cloud platform reduce their carbon footprints by up to 95% compared to on-premise systems. Such measurable outcomes are critical as regulators globally push for transparency and accountability. Cloud Innovation as a Climate Solution Temenos' cloud-based solutions—like its flagship Banking Cloud and AI-driven Leap platform—aren't just about efficiency. They're a direct response to the existential threat of climate change. By centralizing banking operations in the cloud, Temenos helps institutions slash energy consumption and emissions. For example, a 2024 study by GoCodeGreen validated that Temenos' code optimizations reduced software carbon impact by 32% compared to 2021 levels. This environmental edge is a competitive moat… Governance and Strategy: A Boardroom Priority Temenos' leadership has embedded ESG into its DNA. Its board oversees ESG initiatives directly, and the company has committed to science-based emissions targets aligned with the 1.5°C warming limit… The results speak for themselves: Temenos retains EcoVadis Platinum status (top 1% globally) and was the sole software company to rank in the top 1% of S&P's 2024 Sustainability Yearbook. The Investment Case: Why Temenos Belongs in Every ESG Portfolio For investors, Temenos offers a rare combination of growth and values. Its cloud revenue grew 22% in 2023, and with over 700 clients migrated to its platform, demand is accelerating. Meanwhile, regulatory tailwinds—like the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and global carbon pricing mechanisms—are creating urgency for banks to modernize their tech stacks. Critically, Temenos' ESG leadership attracts capital from ESG-focused funds. Companies with top quartile ESG ratings historically outperform peers during market downturns, a trend that could amplify as climate risks materialize. Temenos isn't just a tech vendor—it's a sustainability pioneer. Its unrivaled ESG ratings, climate-conscious products, and strategic foresight position it to capitalize on two megatrends: the digitization of finance and the global push for net-zero. For investors, this is a stock that checks all boxes: ethical alignment, growth potential, and resilience in a volatile world… For ESG-focused investors, this is a must-hold.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 3. This next article is the first of 2 articles on dividend stocks that might interest ethical and sustainable investors. Its title is VZ Named A Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by BNK Invest and found on nasdaq.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “Verizon Communications Inc. (Symbol: VZ) has been named a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by Dividend Channel, signifying a stock with above-average 'DividendRank' statistics including a strong 6.4% yield, as well as being recognized by prominent asset managers as being a socially responsible investment, through analysis of social and environmental criteria… According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, Verizon Communications Inc. is a member of both the iShares MSCI USA ESG Select ETF (SUSA), making up 0.43% of the underlying holdings of the fund, as well as the iShares MSCI KLD 400 Social Index Fund ETF (DSI), where Verizon Communications Inc. makes up 0.63% of the underlying holdings of the fund. The annualized dividend paid by Verizon Communications Inc. is $2.71/share, currently paid in quarterly installments.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 4. The second dividend-paying stock article is titled AvalonBay Communities a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock With 3.4% Yield (AVB). It's by BNK Invest and is seen on nasdaq.com. Here's some of what BNK Invest says about this stock. “AvalonBay Communities, Inc .(Symbol: AVB) has been named a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by Dividend Channel, signifying a stock with above average ‘DividendRank' statistics including a strong 3.4% yield, as well as being recognized by prominent asset managers as being a socially responsible investment, through analysis of social and environmental criteria… According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, AvalonBay Communities, Inc. is a member of the iShares USA ESG Select ETF (SUSA), making up 0.10% of the underlying holdings of the fund. The annualized dividend paid by AvalonBay Communities, Inc. is $7/share, currently paid in quarterly installments.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest from around the world for ethical and sustainable investors 1.

Proper winemaking takes humility. It takes a story. It takes risk. And I guess risk is relative. when you come from nothing or next to nothing and you plot a path and execute a path, that comes from and takes humility. Mike Grgich landed in Saint Helena with $32 dollars sewed in his shoe and landed in front of a faceless hotel. He wasn't sure at the point what to do next and certainly wasn't aware of what was to become of him. Sitting with Violet Grgich is in itself sitting with humility. Such a desirable trait in a human being. She immediately draws you in to her outlook on life; perhaps a piece of her fathers outlook. The Grgich name might conjure visions of Napa Valley legend, but Violet Grgich proves she's every bit as fascinating as the myth she continues. In this unforgettable conversation, you'll traverse the triumphant, tumultuous journey of her father, Mike Grgich—the man behind the “Judgment of Paris”—from a small, impoverished Croatian village to the heart of California winemaking, with $32 literally sewn into his shoe and ambition sewn into his soul. Violet unspools the invisible threads connecting generations: the hard-won wisdom passed from father to daughter, the unwavering commitment to tradition and authenticity, and the belief that the story in every bottle is as important as the wine itself. Along the way, you'll uncover why organic, regenerative farming isn't just a marketing phrase at Grgich Hills, but a living, breathing value system; how a winemaker's hands-off approach reveals complexity in the glass; and why, despite decades of technological advances, the heart of great wine remains thrillingly elemental. Violet's reflections on the emotional power of wine—its capacity to conjure memories, ignite conversation, and bind friends—will linger with you long after, as will her thoughts on the shifting tides of generations, changing tastes, and why she's certain that, in the end, every age group rediscovers honest wine. You'll step behind the cellar door to meet the people, the terroir, and even the family spirit that defines Grgich Hills—learning not only the story of a vineyard, but how wine, at its best, transforms a simple moment into something infinite. By the end, you'll know not just how Grgich wines are made, but why they matter, and why the real taste of wine is the taste of a hard-won, beautifully lived life.

On today's podcast: 1) President Donald Trump sowed chaos in metals markets by indicating the US would implement a higher-than-expected 50% tariff on copper imports, spurring a record spike in New York futures and a drop in the global benchmark. 2) Greg Abbott says authorities believe at least 161 people may still be unaccounted for in Kerr County, which was hit by devastating floods over the Fourth of July weekend. 3) Apple Inc. Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams is retiring as the company’s longtime No. 2, marking a major changing of the guard at an already tumultuous time for the iPhone maker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode, we talk to award-winning investigative journalist Patrick McGee, who for years led the Financial Times’ reporting on the meteoric rise of Apple Inc to become the world’s most valuable company after being on the brink of bankruptcy in 1996. As the iPod, iPhone and iPad revolutionised the way we live, Apple injected eye-watering amounts into China – more than $US50 billion a year by 2015 – training millions of engineers and assembly-line workers and endowing them with the skills to help propel China into the advanced manufacturing powerhouse it is today. While Apple cracked the code of making billions of dollars without actually owning the factories that produced its products, it became beholden to the Chinese once Xi Jinping came to power. With Xi weaponising the technology – and its supply chains – against the West, China now has, in McGee’s words, Apple “by the balls”. Hosting this conversation is Good Weekend acting editor Greg Callaghan.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On today's podcast: 1) Tensions flared in Los Angeles on the third day of anti-deportation protests, as demonstrators clashed with law enforcement while President Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom exchanged blame over the unrest and responsibility for restoring order. 2) The US and China are set to resume trade negotiations in London on Monday in a bid to further defuse tensions over rare-earth minerals and advanced technology following a phone call between leaders Donald Trump and Xi Jinping last week. 3) Apple Inc. shares have been heavily tethered to US trade policies this year, but its annual developer’s conference could refocus Wall Street’s attention on a potentially bigger problem: its struggles with artificial intelligence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Grumpy Old Geeks, we're serving up a buffet of dystopia with a side of snark. First, Kuwait has finally realized crypto bros are an energy drain, not a feature. Celsius Network's founder gets 12 years for running a “safe investment” Ponzi scheme. And in Lopez v. Apple, we find yet another reason to question Cupertino's moral compass.Then it's time for a trip through the tech trash fire. DoorDash gobbles up Deliveroo, proving there's no such thing as too many overpriced salads. Google wants your kids to befriend Gemini—because what could go wrong giving tweens supervised AI access? Tesla's “Robotaxi” trademark gets the boot for being as generic as Elon's pickup lines. Meanwhile, Grok strips in public, deepfake porn sites get the axe, and dating app “Raw” rawdogs user data like it's the early 2000s internet. We also hit peak Black Mirror with brain-typed tweets, AI-resurrected relatives, and crypto kidnappers playing real-life GTA.On Media Candy, the streaming overlords dump trailers like Halloween candy. Squid Game is back to traumatize you, Star Trek: Lower Decks keeps boldly going where no animated series should, and The Old Guard 2 teases a Theron-vs-Thurman sword fight. Plus, Apple's UX team found the “enhance” button, Netflix wants to be helpful (lol), and Google dreams of becoming a Hollywood darling. Over in Apps & Doodads, Apple wants to stagger iPhone drops, Disney sells you a $3,000 droid with zero sass, and Smart Flowerpots are now a thing because apparently, you can't be trusted to water your plant.And finally, it's time for The Dark Side with Dave, where Bittner brings us malware, click tracks, fake vocals, and the shocking truth about KISS's lipsync disaster in Antwerp. We also dip into ILM's jaw-dropping legacy, Star Wars' shady back alleys, and a new Disneyland in Abu Dhabi, because nothing says “happiest place on Earth” like 120°F desert heat.
