Most of you know the tax benefits of real estate. But what about Oil & gas?In this week's episode, I sat down with Troy Eckard of ECKARD enterprises to explore how oil & gas fits into most portfolios.Troy W. Eckard has four decades of oil and gas expertise and Since 2019, his company Eckard enterprises has deployed $1 billion in capital across mineral rights, working interests, and the second-largest natural gas pipeline in the Gulf of Mexico. We cover:Tax benefits: How oil & gas can offset W-2 income (a rare advantage).Risk vs. reward: What you really need to know about cash flow and market cycles.Diversification: Why non-correlated assets are key to long-term stability.Healthy allocation: Where does energy investing fit in a balanced portfolio?Investor mindset: Why “don't let the tax tail wag the dog” is a rule to remember.If you've ever wondered whether energy investing belongs in your portfolio—or how to avoid common pitfalls—this episode is a must-listen.

Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Markets are heating up with massive headlines, and today's video covers the biggest movers you need to know about. From Tesla's billion-dollar insider buy to Opendoor's explosive short squeeze and Nvidia's multibillion-dollar AI contract, we're diving deep into what these moves mean and how they connect to the broader market. Along the way, we'll look at commodities, sector trends, and the trading plan for the day, so you know exactly where to focus.The excitement is everywhere right now. The Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq are all pushing higher, gold is exploding past levels most didn't think possible, silver is surging, and oil and natural gas are climbing too. Everywhere you look, assets are breaking out. But the big question is whether this rally is sustainable—or if it's just another setup for a reversal.Here's what you'll learn in this video:➡️ Tesla's $1B insider buy: Elon Musk just bought 2.5 million shares of Tesla, signaling massive confidence. We break down what this means for the stock's trend, order block resistance, and whether that $700 price target is realistic.➡️ Opendoor short squeeze: The stock has skyrocketed over 50% in days, but history suggests these parabolic moves rarely last. Learn the 50/80 rule, why meme-stock momentum is dangerous, and how to protect yourself from giving back gains.➡️ Nvidia's $6.3B AI contract: Nvidia just signed a huge deal with CoreWeave that could reshape demand for AI infrastructure. But order blocks and technical signals show caution may still be needed in the short term.➡️ Commodity surge: Gold, silver, oil, and natural gas are all climbing fast. We'll cover what's driving the breakout and how these moves tie back into inflation, rate cut expectations, and market psychology.➡️ Breadth warning signs: Even as the S&P hits new highs, market breadth is flashing red. Fewer stocks are participating in the rally, creating dangerous divergences that could signal a pullback.➡️ Sector rotation: The only bullish sector right now is utilities, a classic “safety trade.” Learn why that shift is a warning sign for risk assets.➡️ Today's trading plan: With OVTLYR's Nine showing mixed signals, the smart move may be to sit in cash and wait for better setups. Discipline and patience are the edge.The key takeaway is that even in a market full of excitement, discipline matters more than hype. Tesla may be breaking headlines, Opendoor may be trending on Reddit, and Nvidia may be winning billion-dollar contracts, but if breadth is weak and only defensive sectors are leading, risk is higher than it looks. That's where following structured rules and tools like OVTLYR can keep you ahead of the curve.If you want to trade smarter, not harder, this breakdown will help you cut through the noise and focus on the signals that actually matter.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

It was a packed Monday on the AgNet News Hour as hosts Nick Papagni, the Ag Meter, and Josh McGill delivered a show full of breaking updates for California agriculture. From shifting almond yields to critical relief for the dairy sector, farmers had plenty to tune in for. Almond Industry Update Nick sat down with Steve Malanka of West Valley Hauling for a ground-level perspective on this year's almond crop. Early in the season, projections of a massive three-billion-pound harvest had many in the industry worried about oversupply and falling prices. But Malanka's firsthand reports from the field paint a different picture. Yields are consistently off across the Central Valley, with haulers seeing reductions ranging anywhere from 10 to 22 percent compared to last year. Nonpareil yields are down significantly in many orchards, with some growers harvesting closer to 1,200 to 1,800 pounds per acre rather than the state's average of over 2,000. That decline is already strengthening prices, with growers seeing firmer markets and the possibility of hitting $3 per pound by spring. Malanka also broke down the quality challenges. This year, almond hulls absorbed much of the trees' energy, leaving smaller kernels and lower “turnouts.” While that's a concern for nut buyers, the dairy industry may benefit from the abundance of heavier hulls that are a valuable feed source. Major USDA Announcement for Dairy Producers The biggest news of the day came directly from USDA Deputy Secretary of Agriculture Stephen Vaden, who joined the show to announce an additional $1 billion in relief for livestock producers, including California's struggling dairy farmers. The funds, part of the Emergency Livestock Relief Program, are designed to offset increased feed costs caused by the flooding and wildfires of 2023 and 2024. This brings total ELRP funding to a record $2 billion. Importantly, Vaden emphasized that money will go directly to producers through their local FSA offices, with signups beginning September 15 and running through October 31. “This is going directly into the hands of California dairy producers,” Vaden said. “They need this money now, and we're making sure it gets to them quickly.” Why It Matters For California's farmers, the dual updates highlight both challenge and opportunity. Almond growers are watching yields decline but prices rebound, while dairymen finally see long-awaited federal support. As Nick and Josh noted, it's one of the most exciting Monday shows yet, with tangible news that could shape the season ahead for two of California's most important industries.

In today's episode, we're joined by Cobus Loots, CEO of Pan African Resources, a company that has grown into a multi-asset, mid-tier gold producer with a market cap of over two billion dollars. Under Cobus' leadership, Pan African has built a strong reputation for operational excellence, innovation in tailings retreatment, and a forward-looking approach to sustainability and energy security. We'll be exploring the company's journey from its roots to where it is today, its recent move to the Main Board, and its strategy for growth both in South Africa and abroad. We'll also discuss Pan African's financial performance, its view on the gold market, and how it envisions the future of mining in southern Africa. KEY TAKEAWAYS Pan African Resources has successfully grown into a multi-asset, mid-tier gold producer with a market cap exceeding $2 billion, primarily through strategic acquisitions and operational excellence. The company has differentiated itself by focusing on tailings retreatment, turning historic waste dumps into profitable operations. This approach not only generates low-cost gold but also addresses environmental liabilities. Pan African is committed to energy security and sustainability, having implemented large-scale solar projects that significantly reduce production costs and emissions. The goal is to source over 50% of energy requirements from renewables in the next few years. The company reported a record year with a 6% increase in gold production and significant earnings growth. It is now fully unhedged, allowing shareholders to benefit from the rising gold prices. BEST MOMENTS "We always say that you're actually turning liabilities into profits. Without the expertise, without the capital, these would only be liabilities." “We were the first South African miner to commission a large-scale solar plant at Evander. It makes financial sense and brings down our cost of production." "The opportunity came across our desk, and the geological merits certainly stacked up. We took almost a year to make an investment decision." "The world seems an uncertain place at this point, and the geopolitical situation is obviously driving gold price."

Picture this:  A young lawyer with $3,500 from a church committee and an audacious dream to fix what seemed unfixable—the fact that when development projects failed in low-income communities, they left “a hole in the ground for the next 30 years.”That lawyer was Elyse Cherry, and today she's the CEO of BlueHub Capital, having turned that modest start into a staggering $20 billion in community transformation across 42 states. But here's what makes her story remarkable: she's never forgotten that first lesson about standing “at the intersection of downtown and community.”You'll hear how BlueHub's game-changing SUN initiative has prevented nearly 1,250 foreclosures while injecting $67 million back into communities.It's Elyse Cherry on The Business of Giving.

The single-family housing asset class is the largest in the U.S, valued at $70 billion. In the past few years, however, this asset class has seen some of the same challenges of other commercial real estate classes, such as overleverage, increased interest rates and escalating expenses. As a result, attractive opportunities are starting to emerge that translate into solid investments that can generate a 7% yield. Noel Christopher, Managing Director of Strategy & Growth at Genstone Financial and Property Services, leads the strategic vision and execution for Genstone's national single-family rental property management business and associated services, including real estate brokerage, construction, insurance, lending, and title offerings. Noel also owns his own portfolio of 50 single family rentals.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, Jim Fortin shares one of the biggest missed opportunities of his life—how not acting on advice to buy Bitcoin at ten cents a coin cost him $1.2 billion. Through this story, Jim explores the deeper lessons behind missed chances, fear, and procrastination, showing how hesitation keeps us stuck while action opens the door to growth.  This conversation isn't about regret—it's about how fear, uncertainty, and waiting for the “perfect time” sabotage us more than bad decisions ever could. Jim explains why opportunities slip away, how to shift your perspective around risk, and why action—even imperfect action—is the only way forward. If you've ever looked back and thought, “I should have done that,” this episode will change how you see opportunities and give you the mindset shift you need to stop hesitating and start acting. What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Why Opportunities Slip Away (02:00) Jim explains how fear and uncertainty cause us to ignore the chances right in front of us.  The Bitcoin Story That Cost $1.2 Billion (08:00) The now-famous moment when Jim was told to buy Bitcoin at ten cents—and why he didn't.  Fear, Uncertainty, and Procrastination (15:00) Why waiting for the “right time” is the surest way to lose opportunity forever.  How the Past Sabotages the Present (22:00) Your fears and limitations come from the past—and they keep you from acting now.  The Only Time You Have Is Now (25:30) Why opportunities only exist in the present moment, never in the past or future.  Action as Salvation (36:00) Jim's biggest transformational takeaway: growth only happens when you take action, no matter the outcome.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Action is your salvation. Every moment presents an opportunity, but waiting, fearing, or second-guessing only guarantees loss. When you choose to act—even if the outcome is uncertain—you grow, evolve, and move forward. Don't wait for tomorrow; it never comes. The time to act is always now.    Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.
