Send us a textGUEST: Mike Gendron, founder and director, Proclaiming the GospelPresident Trump is on historic multi-nation visit to the Middle East, where he is attempting to broker financial investments in U.S. companies and generally lower the hostile temperature of Arab nations toward one another and Israel. Geopolitical analyst Soeren Kern will join us next week to interpret all that took place and what it means for the U.S. and Israel.This week, Mike Gendron, founder and director of Proclaiming the Gospel, a ministry devoted to helping Roman Catholics understand and believe the biblical gospel, joins us to discuss the selection of a new pope, Leo XIV. Mike, a Roman Catholic for the first 35 years of his life, will tell us about the new pope, the first American-born leader of the Catholic Church, and explain core Catholic doctrines—like Peter being the first pope—and how these contrast with God's Word.But before we get to the new pope and the Roman Catholic Church, Mike and I will discuss the disheartening news this week that Josh Buice, founder and president of G3 Ministries, a ministry focused on building the church up in sound doctrine, has resigned due to the uncovering of anonymous social media accounts that he was using to slander other Christians and ministries and then lying about it.Paul told Timothy to “Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these things, for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you” (1 Timothy 4:16). This is a sobering reminder that we must not only examine our teaching but our hearts.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Francesco Sassi for a wide-ranging discussion on global energy and geopolitics. Francesco is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Oslo and previously served as a Research Fellow in energy geopolitics and markets at Ricerche Industriali ed Energetiche (RIE). Francesco holds a Ph.D. in Political Science – Geopolitics from the University of Pisa, where he focused his research on the Sino-Russian gas interdependence. We were drawn to his straightforward analysis, insightful commentary, and use of maps to bring complex dynamics to life. We were thrilled to visit with Francesco and learn from his perspective. In our conversation, we explore the rise of political risk in energy markets and the growing global interdependence of the energy system, driven by factors such as China's increasing influence in shaping energy geopolitics, new interdependencies created by energy technology, trade and manufacturing, as well as disruptions like COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war. We examine Russian gas volumes to Europe, Spain's leadership in clean energy and the implications of its recent blackout, and the dual forces shaping Europe: rising cross-border interconnectivity projects alongside increasing energy nationalism. We touch on President Trump's recent visit to the Middle East, which is part of broader interest in energy and AI investment in the region, OPEC+ strategy, market share pressures, and the impact of low oil prices on Russia. Francesco shares his perspective on the potential for a Putin-Zelensky meeting, tensions between India and Pakistan, and how energy policy is becoming increasingly central to electoral platforms in Europe. We turn to Argentina's recent progress under President Milei, Israeli investment in lithium extraction technology in Argentina's lithium triangle, and how energy and mineral resources are increasingly being used as tools of foreign policy and geopolitical leverage. We close with Francisco's thoughts on the growing power of energy as a force shaping international relations and global industrial strategy. It was a dynamic and insightful conversation. Mike Bradley kicked off the discussion by noting that broader markets rallied substantially on Monday following news that China and the U.S. have agreed to a “tentative” tariff deal. Broader equity markets (S&P 500) have completely retraced their losses since Trump's April 2nd Day of Liberation and are now up slightly (+4%). Meanwhile, the S&P Volatility Index has plunged from its April 8th tariff volatility highs and is now trading near YTD lows, something to be monitored closely as any surprise event could send broader markets lower. On the bond market front, the 10yr bond yield is trading sideways even though April CPI came in lower than expected. PPI will be released on Wednesday and if it too prints lower than expected, it could provide room for the Fed to begin cutting rates at their June 18th FOMC meeting. On the crude oil front, WTI price has rebounded nicely over the past week and now trades at ~$63/bbl. Oil traders remain focused on future OPEC+ production increases and increasingly on whether U.S. E&Ps will begin altering their 2025 capex plans at these lower prices levels. He wrapped up with a look at key events this week, notably NRG Energy's acquisition of LS Power's portfolio of natural gas generation assets (~13gw for ~$12 billion). The move follows Constellation Energy's mid-January deal to acquire Calpine Corp. and demonstrates that both companies are positioning themselves for an acceleration in electricity growth this decade. Many thanks to Francesco for sharing his time and insights with us today. We hope you enjoy the discussion as much as we did! Our best to you all.

A new outbreak of Foot and Mouth Disease discovered in Germany earlier this year has reshaped trade flows of European pork and led to significant pricing volatility in the region. Varying government responses to the disease have raised questions about how the European market will fare going forward and whether other global exporters will be able to fill the void left by the reduced EU hog supply. Geopolitical uncertainty has further complicated the situation, with US tariffs coming into force and the ongoing antidumping investigation on EU pork by the Chinese government. Heather Pantling leads an indepth discussion with market experts Sarah Reid, Desiré Sigaudo, and Samyak Pandey as they explore the impacts of Foot and Mouth Disease not only on the economy but also on global trading patterns.

The Ag-Net News Hour Hosts, Lorrie Boyer and Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,” discuss various agricultural and economic updates. Nick and Lorrie highlighted the Federal Reserve's decision to leave interest rates unchanged, with Chairman Powell monitoring unemployment and inflation. They noted ongoing trade negotiations with the UK, Canada, Mexico, Japan, and South Korea, and potential US-China trade deals. Geopolitical conflicts in India, Pakistan, Ukraine, Russia, and Israel were mentioned. Disaster aid enrollment is underway, with livestock producers signing up by the end of the month and crop producers by July. Secretary Brooke Rollins is working on a plan to support small, family-owned farms.   The second segment, Nick and Lorrie talk about the environmental groups' petition to the Trump administration to enforce regulations on Colorado River water use, potentially reducing agricultural water allocation. The debate highlights the tension between environmental conservation and agricultural needs, with one speaker emphasizing the importance of farming for global food supply. The conversation also touches on the issue of international entities, particularly China, buying U.S. farmland, raising concerns about national security and private property rights. Suggestions for water conservation included forest management, cleaning Delta pumps, and expanding reservoirs. The hosts agreed on the complexity of the issue and the need for balanced solutions.   Finally, in the third part of the show, Nick and Lorrie talk about the Trump administration's potential involvement in managing the Colorado River, with environmentalists citing wasteful water use in agriculture. Speaker 2 dismissed climate change as weather, and supported the administration's stance. The segment also covers the impact of 145% tariffs on Chinese imports, with cargo traffic at the Port of Los Angeles down 35% and Seattle up 20%. The conversation brought out the financial benefits of tariffs, noting the U.S. makes nearly a billion dollars daily. Additionally, the discussion touched on the state of Central Valley crops and the challenges of urban development encroaching on agricultural land.

Interview with Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals and Michael Konnert, President & CEO of Vizsla Silver Corp.Recording date: 7th May 2025The silver market is experiencing its fifth consecutive year of structural deficit, creating a compelling investment case as demand continues to outpace supply. This imbalance stems from the challenges inherent in developing new silver mines—including permitting hurdles, financing difficulties, and extended development timelines—while production costs rise at roughly 8% annually.Unlike many commodities, silver benefits from dual demand drivers. Industrial usage, particularly in solar energy applications, continues to grow alongside global decarbonization efforts. Simultaneously, investment demand is rising, with the World Silver Survey projecting a 7% increase this year as investors seek alternatives amid economic uncertainty and following gold's upward trajectory.Primary silver producers like Silvercorp Metals and developers such as Vizsla Silver are capitalizing on these favorable conditions. Vizsla's Copala Panuco project in Mexico demonstrates exceptional economics with a projected payback period under six months at current prices, while Silvercorp is leveraging its cash flow from Chinese operations to construct a second project in Ecuador, slated for commissioning in late 2026.Both companies emphasize disciplined capital allocation and operational excellence. Despite having robust growth pipelines, they maintain conservative balance sheets while pursuing strategic expansions. This approach has enabled them to secure financing on favorable terms as investor sentiment shifts positively toward the sector.Geopolitical trends are increasingly favorable to mining in key jurisdictions like Mexico, Ecuador, and Canada, where governments recognize the economic benefits of resource development. Vizsla notes that its operations could eventually support up to 1,000 direct and indirect jobs, highlighting mining's contribution to local economies.While ESG considerations are less headline-grabbing than in recent years, they have become standard practice for well-managed companies. Both Silvercorp and Vizsla integrate sustainable operations and community engagement as core business functions, improving their appeal to institutional investors.Despite the favorable macro environment, silver equities have not yet fully priced in the underlying commodity dynamics, suggesting potential upside for investors. As broader capital markets reengage with the commodity sector, silver equities—offering both industrial utility and monetary potential—represent an underappreciated opportunity for investors seeking fundamentally supported long-term growth.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/categories/commodities/silverhttps://cruxinvestor.com/companies/vizsla-silver-corphttps://cruxinvestor.com/companies/silvercorp-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, we chat with Krishan Gopaul, Senior Research Analyst at the World Gold Council, who are the authority on Gold. They explore the unique gold market and industry research, producing analysis, commentary, and insights on the precious metal to improve the understanding, access, and trust in the yellow metal. Krishan has been with the World Council for over 14 years and is here today to give us an update on their latest Gold Demands Trend report for the first quarter of this year, some of the main drivers of gold at the moment, investor demand, and the activities of the central banks, and more. KEY TAKEAWAYS In the first quarter of 2025, total gold demand increased by 1% to 1,206 tonnes, marking the highest first quarter of gold demand since 2016. Investment demand, particularly from gold ETFs, was a significant driver of this increase. The main drivers for gold demand included macroeconomic factors such as inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainties. Central banks continued to be a major source of demand, with ongoing purchases contributing to the overall support for gold prices. Retail investment in gold, particularly in bars and coins, saw a 3% year-on-year increase in the first quarter. This growth was driven by heightened uncertainty in the market, prompting both institutional and retail investors to seek gold as a safe haven asset. Central banks have been net buyers of gold since 2010, with significant purchases continuing into 2025. Emerging market central banks, such as those in Poland and China, were noted as key purchasers, maintaining a robust demand for gold. Jewellery demand faced pressure due to rising gold prices, with a 21% year-on-year decline in consumption. However, the value of gold jewellery sales increased by 40% year-on-year, indicating that consumers were spending more despite purchasing less volume, reflecting a shift towards viewing jewellery as an investment. BEST MOMENTS "We saw total gold demand in the first quarter up 1% to 1,206 tonnes, the highest first quarter of gold demand that we have seen since 2016." "In times of heightened uncertainty, gold tends to perform well; people see it as a safe haven asset." "Central banks have been net buyers of gold since 2010, and this trend is likely to persist." "Jewellery consumption was down 21% year on year, unsurprisingly given the rapid increase in price that we've seen."

Gold continues to outperform pretty much every asset class, rallying over $100 to surpass $3,400/oz, after a recent quick correction and major Asian markets being closed. Dave Erfle, founder of the Junior Miner Junky, joins us for a wide-ranging conversation on gold's latest surge and what it means for investors in both major producers and junior explorers.   Key Themes Covered: Asia driving demand: We break down the resurgence of Chinese and Indian buying, record Shanghai Gold Exchange volumes, and what this eastward shift in pricing power signals for the global gold market. Geopolitical catalysts: Ongoing tensions across multiple regions, from the Middle East to Asia, are creating the kind of safe haven bid gold thrives on. On top of that, faith in US government bonds and fiat currencies erodes. Gold vs US assets: With US equities underperforming and bonds falling out of favor, gold, and notably gold stocks, are becoming the new capital safe haven. The juniors are catching fire: Dave highlights a rotation underway as investors start locking in gains from major miners and redeploying into undervalued developers and PEA-stage companies, many with projects far more valuable at current spot prices than their market caps reflect.   We also explore the role of interest rates, the Fed's fading influence, institutional inflows into gold ETFs, and the growing disconnect between gold and the broader stock market.   Click here to visit the Junior Miner Junky website to learn more about Dave's investment letter.

In a packed Saturday night edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Chris Paul dive into a whirlwind of topics connecting culture, geopolitics, and narrative warfare. They start light with the NFL draft drama surrounding Shedeur Sanders, exposing how Trump's casual posts seemingly shattered a media-manufactured story in real time. Then they pivot into Trump's meeting with Zelensky at the Pope's funeral, dissecting its optics, body language, and what Trump's subtle rebuke of Putin really signals in the broader geopolitical chess match. From there, Jon and Chris explore NATO's desperate attempts to stay relevant in Ukraine, the accelerating collapse of the Crossfire Hurricane coverup, and how Israel's AI warfare tech reveals just how advanced military technology has become. They also cover nuclear energy diplomacy with Armenia and Iran, the Abraham Accords expansion, and how sovereignty battles are being framed through economic and military alliances. Wrapping up, they discuss the FBI arresting corrupt judges, Katie Hobbs' ties to human smuggling scandals, the Defense Policy Board purge, and how Trump's new executive orders targeting ActBlue and foreign interference connect back to EO 13848. It is a sprawling, energetic episode packed with insight, theory, humor, and serious truth bombs.

He discusses India's geographic advantages, economic growth, and ambition to become a major manufacturing hub despite internal challenges like bureaucracy and inadequate education systems. The conversation touches on India's desire to maintain positive relations with both Western and Eastern blocs, while avoiding entanglement in great power rivalries. They also address Western perceptions of India, growing xenophobia, and the implications of AI and technological arms races, concluding that the U.S. remains the dominant superpower but faces critical decisions in a rapidly changing global order.

The U.S. has long balanced military strength with soft power in the Middle East through agencies like USAID. With the Trump administration reversing these policies, is this a necessary realignment—or a costly retreat? Those against these changes argue this will boost rivals like Iran and China and harm America's image. Those hailing them argue it's a necessary correction, favoring clear, transactional geopolitical goals over costly diplomacy.

Israel is a nation often in the news but seldom for its potential as an investment.​Israel is a tiny country but a powerhouse for investing opportunities, particularly in the tech sector. Brian Mumbert joins us today to examine Israel in a different light.Brian Mumbert is Vice President and Regional Sales Executive at Timothy Plan, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Is It Safe to Invest in Israel?Despite frequent headlines about conflict in the Middle East, Israel stands out as a remarkably resilient nation with an entrepreneurial spirit.Israelis have a low view of debt culturally. In fact, at one point, the government even sent out piggy banks to every citizen to encourage savings and wise stewardship. That mindset—combined with a tech-forward economy—creates strong fundamentals that appeal to values-based investors.Understandably, some investors may wonder about the safety of investing in a country with frequent regional conflict. Israel is regulated just like the U.S. They have their own stock exchange—the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange—and the top 125 companies are listed on the Tel Aviv 125 index.Even during times of war, Israel's economy continues to operate. Brian compared it to the U.S. during World War II: while volatility occurred, the Dow still gained over 50% from 1939 to 1945.A Developed Economy with Room to GrowIsrael graduated from the emerging markets category to a developed economy in 2009. While this was a major step forward, it ironically resulted in less attention from global investors, since many international funds tend to favor larger developed economies like Japan or those in Europe.Still, the fundamentals are strong. Israel's unemployment and inflation rates remain low, and the U.S. continues to be a committed ally.Israel has earned the nickname “Startup Nation” for good reason. Its high-tech sector employs 12% of the workforce and generates 20% of the country's GDP.Many Israeli companies don't become household names because giants like Apple, Google, and Amazon acquire them. Notable examples include:Mobileye—A leader in automotive safety tech.Waze—The crowd-sourced navigation app developed to navigate Jerusalem's winding roads.Cherry Tomatoes—Yes, even innovations in agriculture like drip irrigation and cherry tomatoes can be traced back to Israeli ingenuity.The government's support of tech innovation has made Israel the third-largest tech hub globally by capital raised—just behind Silicon Valley and New York.While tech leads the way, Israel's financial sector is also strong due to the cultural avoidance of debt. This contrasts sharply with many Western nations. Innovations in agriculture (like drip irrigation) and strong export activity also contribute to Israel's economic resilience.Over 50% of Israel's exports are tech-related; major U.S. companies like Apple have invested heavily in Israeli startups, demonstrating the global demand for their innovations.Israel's global relationships are improving, with normalization efforts such as the Abraham Accords expanding diplomatic and trade ties across the Middle East.Venture capital is thriving, too. Israel boasts over 270 active VC funds, and from 2014 to 2018, investment in Israeli startups grew by 140%—more than double the rate in the U.S. during the same period.The Timothy Plan's Israel Common Values FundTimothy Plan offers the Israel Common Values Mutual Fund for those interested in investing in Israel in a biblically responsible way. This fund stands out in several ways:Actively managed—Fund managers respond in real time to geopolitical developments.Focused exposure—At least 80% of companies in the portfolio are domiciled in Israel.Faith-based screening—Just like all Timothy Plan funds, this one avoids investments in companies involved in abortion, pornography, and other areas contrary to Christian values.The fund performed very well last year as the Israeli Stock Exchange closed the year up over 20%, with most of that growth coming in the second half.If you're interested in learning more about investing in Israel and doing so in a way that aligns with your faith, visit TimothyPlan.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I just sold my home with $200,000 in profit. Where's the best place to put this money to earn more interest while keeping it ready for my next home purchase in 6-9 months?As a veteran with limited funds, can I set up a Christian investment account to tithe $100 monthly and distribute it to ministry programs after my death?I'm considering buying a rental property for passive income, but I would like to know if it is wiser to meet with a financial advisor and invest in the stock market instead. I'm single, planning for the future, and want to avoid the time-consuming aspects of managing a rental property.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineTimothy Plan | Israel Common Values Mutual FundBankrate.comWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Heather Hurlburt is a former chief of staff in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative during the Biden Administration and now a fellow at Chatham House. She is also someone I've routinely turned to over the years for insights into broader geopolitical trends. In our conversation today, we dig into the real geopolitical fallout from Donald Trump's escalating trade war — and how the global balance of power is already shifting in ways that most people aren't paying attention to. She explains why the trade war is about much more than tariffs, who the real winners and losers are likely to be, and what ripple effects we're already seeing across Asia, Europe, Africa and beyond.
