Interview with Michael Gentile, Strategic investorPrevious interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/mining-alpha-with-michael-gentile-junior-miners-repriced-as-ma-sets-new-gold-benchmarks-10184Recording date: 16th July 2026Strategic investor Michael Gentile argues that gold's flat price since October 2025 masks a powerful divergence between market sentiment and underlying fundamentals. While gold still trades near $4,000 per ounce - the same level that previously triggered euphoria - investor mood has shifted to extreme pessimism. Gentile views this disconnect as an opportunity rather than a warning sign.His thesis centers on the growing strain of US government debt. With interest rates rising, servicing roughly $40 trillion in debt at around 5% could push annual interest costs toward $2 trillion, compounding an already large fiscal deficit. Gentile questions whether such high rates are sustainable, suggesting that policymakers may ultimately be forced toward monetary easing or yield curve control—both historically supportive of gold prices.At the same time, central banks continue to accumulate gold aggressively, driving much of its long-term rally. However, financial investors remain largely absent, with gold representing only a small fraction of global portfolios and sentiment indicators near record lows. Gentile believes even a modest shift in institutional allocation could significantly accelerate demand.In equities, he focuses on junior mining companies with large resources and existing infrastructure, which reduce development costs and increase takeover appeal. He highlights companies like McFarlane Lake, Radisson Mining, and Big Ridge Gold as examples where market valuations remain far below the prices typically paid in acquisitions. This gap, he argues, creates substantial upside as consolidation continues.Gentile has also made a rare move into royalties through Silver Crown, a company targeting overlooked silver by-products from other mining operations. This niche strategy avoids direct competition with major royalty firms and could offer scalable growth.Overall, Gentile maintains that gold's long-term outlook remains intact, driven by structural debt pressures, steady central bank demand, and the potential return of financial investors.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Underground Alpha, joins us for our monthly longer-format discussion on assortment of messy macroeconomic factors, how he is navigating the bearish metals price trends, and portfolio management strategies in select gold, copper, lithium, rare earths, and uranium stocks.   We start off reviewing the mix of messy macroeconomic movers like: Market effects from the rising US Dollar – over 100 and climbing Rising short-term interest rates at the short-end of the yield curve due to Fed policy and Warsh's meeting and press conference last week; contrasted against flattening rates at the long-end of the curve Rising inflation readings, but wild fluctuations between monthly and quarterly trends Knock-on effects from geopolitics and continued uncertainty around the US/Iran MOU and supposed reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Fluid situation causing increased volatility and impulsive reactions in both directions Sovereign debt loads and how rising rates will pressure global governments Capex investments in AI data-center build-outs are ongoing.      The majority of the macro news has been a headwind to the commodities sector, but it is a messy situation because there are positive tailwinds present at the same time.  We discussed the pullback in oil prices, in precious metals prices, and copper prices and how Nick is navigating these markets. After touching the hot stove in a few instances, (after taking a nibble at the GDXJ only to see it fall a bit further), he is not interested in trying to pick a bottom or “catch the falling knife” in most commodities. Nick would prefer to see a sustainable real low put in for each respective commodity, like the PMs or Oil or Copper, and for a new uptrend to assert itself before deploying any more new capital. He is more than happy to have a certain portfolio weighting to cash to wait out any more near-term market corrections, and is willing to deploy more cash once the turn higher is more clear.   With regards to portfolio management, Nick is concentrating his portfolio into less positions and fortifying his highest conviction investment stories with compelling catalysts.  He is more likely to trim or sell positions that were picked up based on bullish metals price direction, or as a result of spinouts, or where he is not as confident on the assets or management teams.  He recommends investors take inventory of what they own, and the investment case for why they own it and only be in the higher conviction stories.   Nick highlighted Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSXV: GLAD) (OTCQB: GDTRF) for copper, and Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG) (OTCQX: RVLGF) for gold as 2 positions he has held for some time in his portfolio that he is happy to hold through any more volatility and even add to in their weighting.  He points out that both companies have solid management teams and projects, and both still have a lot of drilling on tap for this season as a catalyst. There are also gold stocks on his watchlist that are becoming more attractive during this ongoing sector correction, like Mayfair Gold Corp. (TSXV: MFG) (NYSE American: MINE), Tiernan Gold Corp. (TSXV : TNGD), or copper stocks like Amerigo Resources Ltd. (TSX: ARG) (OTCQX: ARREF) or Ero Copper Corp. (TSX: ERO, NYSE: ERO) that he is keeping a close eye on for a potential future position.   When reviewing where he is seeing the most strength in the commodities sector, Nick highlights the Critical Minerals as having been the most resilient. He points out that the Global X Lithium and Battery ETF (NYSE: LIT) and lithium developers like Q2 Metals Corp. (TSX.V: QTWO) (OTCQB: QUEXF) and PMET Resources Inc. (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF) have held up better than most other metals or resource stocks. Nick highlights the ongoing direct investment and policy initiatives into the rare earths processors, separators, recyclers, noting prior investments into USA Rare Earth, Inc. (Nasdaq: USAR), MP Materials (NYSE: MP), or the news this week where Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) was approved for a $725 million financing commitment from the Department of War, U.S. Office of Strategic Capital, to support infrastructure and capacity to process rare earth elements and other critical materials. Uranium and nuclear stocks have also been soft ever since the big move up in January, but Nick outlined the continued support from many sovereign nations to invest in both their nuclear infrastructure as well as uranium miners with projects of significance. Cameco Corporation (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) announced yesterday a conditional commitment for a loan package of up to US$17.5 billion by the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Dominance Financing (EDF) to reenergize the large-scale nuclear reactor supply chain, drive down costs, and accelerate the deployment of AP1000 reactors in the US and globally.   Click here to follow Nick's analysis and publications over at Digest Publishing     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Favorable weather for US grains keeps pressure on prices, but drought and record temperatures in Europe could threaten corn and wheat crops. Soybeans held small gains today with help from the product markets. Cattle futures were lower, the morning choice boxed beef spiked over $400. Don Roose with US Commodities recaps today's trade.

Higher equities and lower energies led the drag on grain trade to start the week. Domestic weather looks mostly favorable, though trade is keeping an eye on areas with potentially too much moisture. Cattle trade continues to show optimism after a friendly to neutral Cattle on Feed report. Sam Hudson with Cornbelt Marketing recaps today's trade.

Gold and silver prices pulled back sharply last week as hawkish Federal Reserve messaging weighed on investor sentiment, but many long-term bullion advocates see the decline as an opportunity rather than a warning sign. Behind the short-term volatility, central banks continue accumulating gold at a historic pace while concerns over rising government debt and currency debasement remain unresolved. In this week's market update, we examine why precious metals investors are staying bullish despite weakening prices, what major central banks are signaling about the future of global reserves, and why silver's supply-demand fundamentals continue to attract attention. We also break down the growing role of China's yuan in global trade and the implications for gold's long-term outlook. Listen for a deeper dive into the forces shaping precious metals markets and what they could mean for investors in the years ahead. Learn more...

The conversation pivots to exciting news from Ledn: support for tokenized Tether Gold (XAUT) alongside expanded stablecoins like USDT and USDC for seamless borrowing, repaying, and trading against Bitcoin. Discover why gold's lower volatility complements Bitcoin as a tried-and-true hard asset, offering potentially better loan terms, and how focusing on real value over hype products leads to smarter portfolio decisions in volatile markets.

In this episode, Farm4Profit sits down with Tommy Grisafi, founder of Ag Bull Trading and Ag Bull Media, a veteran commodity trader with more than three decades of experience navigating agricultural markets. Tommy shares the story of how a high school field trip to the Chicago Board of Trade sparked a lifelong passion for commodity trading and eventually led him to become a member of both the Chicago Board of Trade and CME. The conversation explores the realities of grain marketing and why it often proves more difficult than growing the crop itself. Tommy dives into the emotions that drive decision-making—greed, hope, ego, and fear—and explains how these factors can quietly cost farmers more than any market downturn. Topics include: Tommy's journey from the CBOT trading floor to Ag Bull Trading How commodity markets have evolved over the past 30 years Whether today's flood of information helps or hurts decision-making How producers can identify trustworthy market advisors Why risk management matters more than ever The traits shared by successful grain marketers Common habits that hold producers back Why profitable opportunities are often missed Market outlooks for corn, soybeans, wheat, fertilizer, fuel, and interest rates What younger farmers should focus on as they build their operations The importance of discipline and consistency in marketing plans Tommy also shares stories from some of the most volatile periods in agricultural markets and discusses the lessons he's learned from both winning and losing trades. Whether you're marketing old crop grain, planning for next year, or simply trying to make better decisions in an uncertain environment, this episode offers valuable insights from someone who has spent a lifetime studying market behavior.

Craig Cobb says the market continues to look overwhelmingly bearish, and from his perspective, the recent price action has only reinforced that view. While many investors disappear when prices fall, Craig says these are the periods that get him most excited because they create opportunities for long-term accumulation. Having remained largely in cash throughout the downturn, he is now watching closely for signs that Bitcoin could offer a more attractive reentry point.The key level Craig continues to focus on is the $74,000 area. This zone previously acted as major resistance before becoming support following President Trump's election victory rally. Last week, Bitcoin broke below that level and has since struggled to reclaim it. On both the daily and weekly charts, Craig sees a clear pattern of lower highs and lower lows, with the two-week timeframe also showing what he considers a textbook downtrend. To him, the trend remains firmly bearish until proven otherwise.Craig is also paying close attention to the monthly chart. May closed as a bearish month after Bitcoin failed to hold above $80,000, and he believes a break below the May low near $72,460 could open the door for significantly more downside. While he is not predicting that Bitcoin will revisit previous cycle lows, he does believe momentum could accelerate if key support levels fail. Rather than rushing back into the market, he remains comfortable holding cash and waiting for better opportunities.Ethereum continues to be one of Craig's biggest concerns. He notes that Ethereum showed weakness long before Bitcoin rolled over and has now fallen below the psychologically important $2,000 level. Because Ethereum often serves as a barometer for the broader altcoin market, its continued weakness suggests that altcoins may struggle to gain meaningful traction. Projects like Cardano, Solana, XRP, Dogecoin, and Bitcoin Cash all continue to show bearish structures, with Bitcoin Cash suffering some of the most severe losses in recent weeks.One notable exception is Hyperliquid. Craig highlighted Hyperliquid as one of the strongest performers in the entire crypto market, pointing to its revenue generation model and token buyback mechanism as key drivers behind its continued strength. While most of the market remains under pressure, Hyperliquid has continued making new highs and attracting significant capital.Looking at broader market indicators, Craig notes that Bitcoin dominance has fallen sharply, but not because altcoins are thriving. Instead, Bitcoin itself has weakened relative to the broader market. Total crypto market capitalization continues to look fragile, and Craig believes many altcoin holders have simply reached a point of exhaustion, holding positions despite large losses rather than actively selling.For now, Craig's outlook remains straightforward. The trends across nearly every major timeframe continue pointing lower. He is watching closely to see whether Bitcoin breaks the May monthly low, which could trigger another significant leg down. Until the charts show otherwise, he believes patience remains the best strategy.For deeper market analysis and Craig's weekly outlook, visit The Grow Me Co.For Craig's trend scanner and trading tools, check out Market Intern.

We discuss narrow market breadth, concentration risk inside major indexes, memory chip pricing, Korea's growing importance in the global semiconductor supply chain, and whether investor optimism is outrunning economic reality.

Technicals are turning bearish in the semiconductor names, says Nate Peterson with Charles Schwab. He has his eyes on Marvell's (MRVL) earnings after the close, which he sees as a potential bellwether for the sector's direction. Nate also shares worries of a "sell the news" situation once the U.S. and Iran reach a peace agreement. On the macro front, Mike Townsend breaks down the state of the midterm elections and explains why the GOP agenda can "turn sideways." ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

The price of oil is skyrocketing— and the ripple effects are spreading fast. Today, Nicole sits down with Lauren Simmons, former trader on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, to break down exactly what's driving market volatility right now and what you should actually be doing with your money. Lauren and Nicole get into why the Petrodollar system is cracking, whether the U.S. dollar is still a safe haven (Lauren's honest answer might surprise you), and where big institutional investors are quietly moving their money. Lauren also opens up about her own portfolio — why she put 10% into gold and silver, why she's steering clear of Bitcoin, and her take on the AI bubble question. This episode was taped on 3.26.26.

“We don't want to be headline driven, we want to be process-driven,” emphasizes Jay Mehta, and this is particularly important during times of high volatility. He looks to risk-off sectors like energy and aerospace for opportunities, but is concerned about fertilizer which comes through the Strait of Hormuz. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Ian Lyngen and Ben Jeffery bring you their thoughts on the U.S. Rates market for the upcoming week of March 30th, 2026, and respond to questions submitted by listeners and clients.

WAR… and no market crash… Are we in a bear market or a bull market? Rapidly shifting narratives, once centered on a soft landing, rate cuts, and strong consumers, have been disrupted by war, oil volatility, and weakening economic data, creating widespread uncertainty and "busted brackets" for investors. Markets are behaving irrationally, often reacting more to expectations and propaganda than clear fundamentals, making prediction unreliable and reinforcing the importance of scenario-based thinking rather than conviction. There will either be a quick end to the conflict that could drive lower oil, falling rates, and a rebound in bonds and staples, or a prolonged war leading to higher inflation, economic strain, and limited upside across most assets. With elevated correlations, fragile financial systems, and a stalled market that has gone largely sideways, traditional diversification may not provide protection. The key takeaway is caution and avoiding emotional decisions! As always, adaptability and risk management matter more than trying to predict outcomes in a highly unstable environment. We discuss... Markets are behaving like March Madness, with unpredictability, momentum shifts, and broken narratives replacing earlier optimism around a soft landing. Geopolitical conflict and unclear information flows are driving volatility, making it difficult to distinguish truth from market-moving narratives. The market appears to be pricing in a short-lived conflict, despite ongoing uncertainty and mixed signals. Traditional diversification is less reliable as correlations between stocks and bonds have increased in recent years. Energy has emerged as the primary outperformer, while most other sectors struggle amid rising costs and uncertainty. Financial system risks are building, particularly in private credit and banking exposure, signaling potential stress beneath the surface. Consumer strength is weakening as higher costs and debt begin to pressure spending behavior. Housing remains a major concern, with rising supply and weak demand due to elevated mortgage rates. Market movements often contradict headlines, reinforcing the need to observe price action rather than rely on media narratives. "Buy the dip" strategies are risky in uncertain or potentially bearish environments. Sitting in cash or staying defensive can be a strategic choice when market direction is unclear. Predictions from Wall Street are often overly optimistic and fail to account for downside risks. Volatility and confusion in markets are often the result of mispriced uncertainty rather than clear economic deterioration. Successful investing in this environment requires adaptability, patience, and disciplined risk management rather than bold predictions.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the full show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/war-and-no-market-crash-801

The NAHB housing market index suggests a still bearish outlook for the industry, says Kevin Green. Crude oil prices continue to slide lower as well even though strikes in the Iranian region continue. KG makes sense of the price action by weighing bullish optimism against bearish marks investors are missing. He later turns to the grains market by analyzing price action in soybean futures. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.WallStreetBets is going wild again… so Joe and I decided to sit down and ask a simple question:Would we actually buy any of these stocks right now?We start with the market first, because that's the backbone of everything. About 40 percent of any stock's move is tied to the market, 30 percent to the sector, and only 30 percent to the stock itself. And right now? The market trend is down. Bearish. Choppy. Frustrating.Joe and I walk through it step by step inside OVTLYR. We look at breadth. We look at fear and greed. We look at trend, signals, overhead order blocks, and whether buyers are actually in control or just hoping.Then we pull up names like Nvidia, Micron, silver, and other WallStreetBets favorites and ask the real question… is this a Lambo, or is this a food stamp?Here's what we dig into:✅ Why buying the dip in a bearish market can wreck your account✅ How breadth quietly tells you when trades get easier or harder✅ Why overhead resistance traps buyers over and over✅ How volatility should control your position size✅ What the “slingshot” setup inside OVTLYR really meansWe also break down the actual trading plan being used in the U.S. Investing Championship, including how it was backtested across 7,000 trades with a statistical edge. No fake guru energy. No hindsight predictions. Just math, discipline, and risk control.At one point things even go completely off the rails with a parody “buy the dip” character, because let's be honest… that mindset is everywhere on YouTube right now.If you're tired of guessing, chasing red candles, or feeling stuck in a sideways market, this conversation is going to feel real. It's about stacking probabilities, protecting capital, and knowing when to sit in cash.Watch it through. Then decide how you want to trade.Subscribe to OVTLYR for disciplined trading strategies that actually make sense.
