Recording date: 16th February 2026Gold mining companies are generating unprecedented levels of free cash flow, with major producers like Agnico Eagle reporting more than $11 million per day in Q4 2024 at an average realized gold price near $4,200 per ounce. With gold prices running approximately $800 per ounce higher in the current quarter, that figure is tracking toward $15 million or more per day - a level that is fundamentally reshaping how companies think about capital allocation.Speaking on the Compass podcast, Samuel Pelaez and Derek Macpherson of Olive Resource Capital argued that this cash flow environment gives producers the rare ability to pursue multiple priorities simultaneously: debt reduction, dividend increases, share buybacks, and acquisitions. That flexibility, they noted, sets the current cycle apart from previous periods in the sector.The discussion comes as the mining industry enters its most active conference season of the year. An institutional-focused gathering in Miami is followed shortly by PDAC in Toronto - the world's largest mining conference - beginning around March 1st. Both events are expected to accelerate M&A discussions, as corporate development teams from major miners hold direct meetings with junior company management. Pelaez and Macpherson suggested that transaction announcements could coincide with or immediately follow PDAC.In the near term, Chinese New Year - which began February 17th - introduces a period of thin liquidity across commodity markets as Chinese exchanges close for the week. The hosts characterized any resulting price volatility as mechanical rather than fundamental, and suggested investors treat sell-offs in stocks they already favor as potential entry points.On the macro side, four factors continue to underpin the commodity bull market: expanding US manufacturing PMIs, resilient employment data, continued global liquidity growth, and a US fiscal deficit of approximately $800 billion - the third largest on record - reinforcing the case for hard assets even as the economy grows.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Recording date: 2nd February 2026Olive Resource Capital executives Derek Macpherson and Samuel Pelaez recorded their latest market commentary during a pivotal moment in late January 2026, as precious metals experienced both historic gains and a subsequent correction. Gold surpassed $5,100 while silver exceeded $120 before both metals pulled back, yet still positioned to deliver potentially the best monthly performance on record following 2025's exceptional year.The correction, while notable, was characterised by the executives as a healthy consolidation rather than a reversal of underlying trends. Pelaez emphasised that fundamental drivers supporting precious metals remained intact, including expanding global liquidity at all-time highs and persistent supply constraints. Technical indicators showed overbought conditions with relative strength indices in the 90s range, but the executives noted such conditions can persist for extended periods without signaling imminent reversals.Macpherson's attendance at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference revealed dramatic shifts in market participation. Conference attendance exceeded levels seen in the previous decade, with one small-cap exploration company reporting over 150 investor booth visits. This contrasted sharply with recent years when sparse attendance left companies pitching to neighbouring exhibitors rather than actual investors.Capital markets activity reflected this heightened interest, with private placements routinely exceeding $20-25 million. Institutional investors who participated in mid-2025 financings returned with substantially larger commitments in January 2026, reflecting strong portfolio performance and capital rotation into the mining sector.Despite the rally in metal prices, Pelaez argued that mining equities, particularly developers and explorers, have not yet reflected $5,000 gold in their valuations. Upcoming first-quarter earnings should demonstrate significant margin expansion, as producers benefit from $700 quarterly increases in realised gold prices flowing directly to bottom lines. The executives maintained that mining equities retain appreciation potential even if commodity prices stabilise at current levels, presenting ongoing opportunities for investors willing to navigate near-term volatility while maintaining conviction in the sector's long-term trajectory.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Send us a textEpisode 274 – Liz MacPherson, Deputy Privacy Commissioner, Office of the Privacy Commissioner, New ZealandIn Episode 274 of The Data Diva Talks Privacy Podcast, Debbie Reynolds, The Data Diva, talks with Liz MacPherson, Deputy Privacy Commissioner at the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of New Zealand, about how privacy functions as a critical guardrail for innovation rather than a barrier to progress. The discussion focuses on New Zealand's purpose and context-based privacy framework and why strong privacy foundations enable faster, safer, and more trustworthy data use across government and industry. The conversation explores a landmark case involving the use of facial recognition technology in supermarkets, where regulators, businesses, and independent evaluators worked together to test effectiveness, necessity, and proportionality before deployment. Debbie and Liz unpack why biometric data demands heightened scrutiny, how privacy impact assessments and real-world trials can reduce risk, and why facial recognition is not a plug-and-play technology. They also discuss the importance of human oversight, data quality, access controls, transparency to the public, and the risks of bias and misidentification when systems are poorly governed. Debbie and Liz also examine New Zealand's Biometric Processing Privacy Code and its role in setting clear thresholds for biometric use, including limits on categorization and inference. The episode highlights why data retention is one of the most overlooked sources of organizational risk, how unnecessary data creates downstream harm, and why treating personal information as a treasure rather than an asset to be exploited builds long-term trust. Liz emphasizes that organizations succeed when they place people at the center of data decisions and design privacy as part of the full information lifecycle.Support the showBecome an insider, join Data Diva Confidential for data strategy and data privacy insights delivered to your inbox.
The queen is the most powerful player on a chessboard – a queen can move anywhere - just like HR. Ewen shares why HR practitioners need to stop staying in their square and start thinking like a queen on a chessboard. He explores how meaningful change comes through sustained commitment to human-centred approaches and shares the example of The Havas Platform, demonstrating how HR can create impact both within organisations and society. Ewen champions transparency as foundational to trust and equity and discusses his approach to reward, including opportunities to personalise pay and benefits according to need. Framing reward as an opportunity to target support, he emphasises that social impact isn't only external and reminds us that employees may be experiencing the same issues that we see in society. Encouraging you to "be a queen", Ewen's wish is for everyone in HR to appreciate how powerful your position is, and use that power to drive positive change. How is AI really playing out?

Recording date: 28th December 2025Samuel Pelaez, President & CEO, and Derek Macpherson, Executive Chair, at Olive Resource Capital conducted a comprehensive year-end review of their investment decisions spanning July 2024 through September 2025, providing transparent insights into both successful calls and missed opportunities during a significant precious metals bull market.The portfolio's standout performer was Omai Gold Mines, delivering a 10x return from an initial $0.125 position established in July 2024. Pelaez emphasized that success stemmed not merely from stock selection but from conviction-based holding through the development phase. "We had conviction for it as well, right? We held," Macpherson explained, highlighting their philosophy of establishing positions in quality juniors before momentum develops rather than chasing running stocks.Mid-tier producers with embedded growth optionality proved highly profitable. K92 Mining, Aris Mining, and AngloGold Ashanti each delivered 220-260% returns, outperforming the GDX benchmark's 130% gain by a 2:1 ratio. These companies shared underappreciated expansion projects with capital already invested that markets had failed to recognize.Post-U.S. election investments capitalized on anticipated permitting improvements. Arizona Sonoran Copper appreciated from $1.29 to over $5.00, while AngloGold Ashanti surged from $21 to $91—a remarkable 300% return on a multi-billion dollar company.The managers candidly acknowledged execution shortfalls. They missed substantial returns on Fresnillo, which appreciated 500% after they correctly identified it as undervalued but failed to act. Position sizing emerged as a recurring issue, with inadequate allocations to highest-conviction names limiting overall portfolio impact.Olive's perpetual capital structure proved advantageous during April 2025's tariff-related volatility. Without redemption pressures, the managers deployed cash opportunistically during market dislocations, capturing the subsequent rally that traditional funds missed.Macpherson cautioned against overconfidence: "It's very easy when you get into a market like this to confuse a bull market for brains." Both managers emphasized systematic portfolio review as essential for understanding investment discipline, risk tolerance, and identifying areas for improvement in future market cycles.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Recording date: 17th December 2025Olive Resource Capital's leadership team has delivered a nuanced precious metals outlook for 2026 that challenges conventional wisdom whilst identifying specific opportunities backed by fundamental analysis. In this latest Compass podcast, President and CEO Sam Pelaez alongside Executive Chairman Derek Macpherson presented a framework emphasizing selectivity over broad-based precious metals enthusiasm.The firm's highest-conviction call centres on platinum, which Macpherson identified as his top commodity pick for 2026. The case rests on three pillars: persistent market deficits, tight physical supply, and anticipated policy shifts. "The market's in deficit. It's a small market and it's tight," Macpherson explained, before highlighting a critical catalyst: "I think we're going to see some of these EV mandates are going to get rolled off. More ICE engines by 2030 or 2035 are going to evaporate." This reassessment of aggressive electric vehicle timelines supports continued internal combustion engine production, sustaining autocatalyst demand for platinum and palladium. Olive maintains significant positioning in the PGM complex to capture this opportunity.The macroeconomic foundation underpinning precious metals remains robust despite consensus recession fears. Pelaez articulated the firm's contrarian economic view: "I think the global economy surprises to the upside. The general consensus is bearish. The GDP now for the Atlanta Fed is over 3%. The Treasury and the Fed are injecting liquidity right now. China is on an expansionary fiscal policy." Macpherson reinforced this perspective, noting unprecedented global deficit spending: "China's got a trillion dollars worth of stimulus, the US is spending money like it's going out of style. The Europeans all went into deficit spending to fund their defense efforts."This liquidity-driven environment creates favourable conditions for hard assets, though Olive's leadership expects commodity market leadership to potentially rotate from precious towards industrial metals. Gold maintains its portfolio role despite moderated return expectations following 2025's exceptional 60% advance, with Pelaez noting that reduced speculation in precious metals need not preclude continued gold strength supported by central bank buying and monetary accommodation.Perhaps most controversially, both executives expect silver to disappoint investors in 2026 despite positive fundamentals. Pelaez explained: "Every person on the planet seems to be uber-ultra-mega bullish silver. I'm not saying I think silver is going to go down necessarily, but it's going to be the most disappointing because the expectations for it are so high." Technical analysis suggests silver "has already corrected up to the average" based on 25 years of volume-weighted data against gold, with "the biggest move in silver" having "already occurred literally over the past eight weeks."Macpherson acknowledged tactical opportunities, expecting a "blowoff top in silver at a higher price than where we are right now," but anticipates year-end underperformance following silver's characteristic pattern of spiking then rolling off. Olive maintains silver exposure to capture near-term momentum whilst preparing to reduce positions.The firm's strategy emphasises diversified mining equities as preferred investment vehicles, highlighting Ivanhoe Mines with its PGM production "coming online at a perfect time when the market is moving higher." This approach provides leveraged precious metals exposure whilst managing single-commodity risk through companies with multiple revenue streams and operational catalysts.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Recording date: 23rd December 2025Olive Resource Capital executives are positioning against consensus views heading into 2026, predicting commodity strength driven by unprecedented fiscal stimulus rather than the widely anticipated recession that has dominated economic forecasts for three consecutive years.Sam Pelaez, President, CEO, and CIO, identified oil as his top commodity performer despite—or rather because of—overwhelming bearish sentiment. With Atlanta Fed GDP tracking above 3%, Federal Reserve liquidity injection, and Chinese expansionary fiscal policy, Pelaez argues the global economy will surprise to the upside. He characterised oil as "the most hated commodity" trading in oversold conditions, positioning it for recovery as excessive negative positioning unwinds against improving fundamental backdrop.Executive Chairman Derek Macpherson selected platinum as his best performer, citing structural market deficits and anticipated regulatory shifts. The critical catalyst involves potential rollback of electric vehicle mandates eliminating internal combustion engines by 2030-2035. Such policy reversals would extend ICE production timelines, directly supporting platinum demand through catalytic converter applications in a tight, supply-constrained market.In their most controversial prediction, both executives identified silver as likely to disappoint relative to extremely bullish expectations. Pelaez noted that 25-year volume-weighted data suggests silver has already corrected to average levels, with the biggest move occurring over the past eight weeks. He anticipates commodity leadership rotating from precious metals to industrial commodities as economic growth accelerates, reducing speculative interest in silver despite positive underlying fundamentals.The executives' no-recession call underpins their constructive commodity stance. Macpherson emphasized unprecedented government deficit spending globally—China's trillion-dollar stimulus, aggressive US spending, European defense funding—combined with Federal Reserve rate cuts creates liquidity-driven conditions favouring commodity performance. He stated this liquidity flow makes recession unlikely despite three years of predictions, instead creating stagflation environment supporting material demand.Specific equity opportunities include Ivanhoe Mines as top portfolio performer, offering exposure to one of the world's five largest copper mines with smelter entering commercial production this quarter, plus PGM phase one commissioning and premier zinc deposit. Pelaez highlighted severe scarcity of investable copper opportunities enhancing Ivanhoe's positioning.Merger and acquisition targets identified include Arizona Sonora in copper, where Rio and Hudbay involvement creates competitive tension and neighbour Ivanhoe Electric requires the asset for project viability. In gold, Aurion Resources adjacent to Rupert Resources in Finland faces increasing opportunity cost of inaction after 24 months without transaction. CANEX Metals pursuing hostile merger with Gold Basin neighbour represents classic merger arbitrage opportunity with potential dollar valuation from current 15-16 cent levels.Contrarian dark horse positions suggested in deeply depressed nickel and lithium markets, where extreme bearish sentiment and technical oversold conditions may create rebound opportunities despite uncertain fundamental timing.Geopolitical wild card involves potential Ukraine peace resolution, which executives believe would trigger reconstruction-driven commodity demand surge rather than market weakness from returning Russian supply. They note Russian oil already trades globally at discounts, suggesting peace could actually tighten markets as Russia reprices exports.The Olive Capital framework prioritises positioning against sentiment extremes—buying oversold energy whilst tempering precious metals expectations—rather than confident directional forecasts, explicitly acknowledging uncertainty whilst providing actionable investment thesis for navigating 2026 commodity markets.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Dr. Michael MacPherson's diverse background in college athletics, education, coaching, and surgical consulting has given him a unique perspective on human performance, rehabilitation, and recovery. His work spans from training high-level athletes to helping individuals regain function after surgery—all with a focus on optimizing results through innovative methods like Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training. Dr. MacPherson has worked with individuals across the lifespan, from children as young as three to adults in their nineties.His passion for health and performance began as a collegiate football player at Michigan Technological University. After his playing career ended, he transitioned into strength and conditioning, coaching at both Michigan Tech and the University of Toledo. He then spent a decade teaching and coaching at the high school level, where he built a speed and strength program that expanded to serve athletes from elementary school through high school. He also began virtual training, programming, and consulting, working with teams and athletes.After 10 years in the weight room, Dr. MacPherson shifted his focus to sports medicine, working as a surgical consultant in the operating room. Observing procedures like ACL reconstructions, meniscus repairs, rotator cuff repairs, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) corrections, and lateral ankle reconstructions firsthand, he became increasingly focused on rehabilitation strategies tailored to each surgery and patient.It was in the operating room that he discovered Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training and its ability to enhance recovery, build strength, and accelerate rehabilitation with minimal mechanical stress. Once he understood the benefits of BFR, there was no turning back. He has since dedicated himself to educating thousands of athletic trainers, physical therapists, and strength coaches on the science and application of BFR. Recognizing that education is a major barrier preventing many from utilizing this powerful tool, he has immersed himself in research and outreach to bridge the gap between science and practice.For more on Michael, be sure to check out clinicalbfr.com and @clinicalbfr and @dr_macpherson on Instagram! *SEASON 6 of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast is brought to you by Isophit.

Gravity - The Digital Agency Power Up : Weekly shows for digital marketing agency owners.
If you're building a personal or leadership brand - whether you're an entrepreneur, a consultant, or an exec thinking about your next move - LinkedIn and how you present yourself matters.In this episode I speak with Laurie Macpherson about making your personal brand employer-friendly, standing for something specific, and using simple, repeatable actions to be seen by the right people. These are practical signals that directly affect whether you get hired, promoted, or invited to collaborate.Three key areas we covered :✳️ Leadership brand vs. business brand - Why employees need their own “home base” online (LinkedIn) and how frequency of exposure builds reputation inside and outside organisations.✳️ Profile signals that attract employers - The headline, the About section, examples of impact, and the need to fill gaps so recruiters and hiring managers can quickly understand your fit.✳️ The BOLD method + practical career moves - Build, Own, Land, Distinguish - a simple way to plan next steps, own your achievements, tailor applications, and increase your visible credibility.Three actionable takeaways (do these this week)✨ Optimise one profile signal now - Update your LinkedIn headline to answer: Who do you help? What do you do for them? Add a one-line “how” so people instantly know your fit. (Small change, big signal.)✨ Turn achievements into proof - Pick one recent project and write 2–3 bullet points that show the outcome (numbers or concrete change). Use those bullets in your About, CV, and one LinkedIn post.✨ Make targeted outreach part of your routine - Pick three people who could help (former manager, peer, or small-business contact). Send a short message offering value (comment on their work, share a useful link) and ask one simple question. Repeat weekly.https://www.lauriemacpherson.com/----Get your copy of my Personal Brand Business Blueprint It's the FREE roadmap to starting, scaling or just fixing your expert business.www.amplifyme.agency/roadmap----Subscribe to my Youtube!!

Nová značka áut Omoda čelí reputačnému peklu pre virálne poľské video. Neverte však všetkému, čo vidíte na internete. My sme jej SUV jazdili týždeň, sumarizujeme pozitívne aj negatívne poznatky z testu. Asi ste aj vy videli video s poľským novinárom, ktorý na čínskom SUV odtrhol volant aj so stĺpikom riadenia. „Ja som mal toto auto celý týždeň, prešiel som ním tisíc kilometrov a viem posúdiť, že táto internetová senzácia je buď zinscenovaný podvod, alebo urputná snaha uškodiť značke Omoda,“ hovorí v podcaste Erik Stríž z portálu Autobazar.EU.V tejto epizóde sa venujeme nielen osobnej skúsenosti s čínskym SUV Omoda 5, ako aj prekvapujúco zaujímavej konferencii Toyoty a BECEPu o zdanlivo nudnej téme - používaní bezpečnostných pásov. Napokon nás odborníci ohromili tým, čo ukázali a povedali. V podcaste budete vidieť a počuť aj známeho lietajúceho doktora Michala Pečíka a zástupcu organizácie BECEP Romana Töröka.Skúsenosti s Omoda 5Značka Omoda je u nás horúcou novinkou, vstúpila na slovenský trh spoločne s ďalšou čínskou značkou áut Jaecoo. Obe patria pod automobilku Chery. O dovoz a servis oboch sa stará dobre etablovaný importér a zaujímavosťou je, že nejde len o elektromobily, ale aj konvenčné benzínové automobily s moderným hybridným pohonom.Testovaný model 5 je stredne veľké SUV, veľkosťou zodpovedá Škode Karoq, Hyundaiu Kona či Citroënu C3 Aircross. Vzhľadom sa nápadne podobá na Nissan Qashqai, ale nemôžeme hovoriť o kopírovaní. Omoda je svojská, poukazujú na to najmä detaily. Naviac, Qashqai je dlhší o 5 centimetrov a rázvor má dlhší o 4 centimetre.Priestrannosť interiéru je však porovnateľná aj s Hyundai Tucson či Kia Sportage. Naše subjektívne dojmy z interiéru boli naozaj pozitívne. Nepostrehli sme vŕzganie, nepresnosti v dielenskom vypracovaní, ani sme nemali dojem, že by bol volant labilný. Samozrejme, nevieme, ako budú povrchové materiály vyzerať o niekoľko rokov. Keď budú Omody dostupné ako jazdenky so 100-tisíc km, pozrieme sa znova.Omoda sa prezentuje ako technologicky vyspelá značka a treba povedať, že na nás aj tak pôsobila najmä vďaka dobre spravenému infotainmentu a bezpečnostným funkciám. Infotainment pripomína systémy v Tesle, Xpengu či v nových Volkswagenoch. Občas sme registrovali menšie spomalenia systému a také udržiavanie v strede jazdného pruhu nebolo úplne spoľahlivé, ale celkový dojem je prevažne pozitívny. Oceňujeme slovenskú lokalizáciu a najmä stabilné bezdrôtové Android Auto. S ním majú teraz automobilky z nejakého dôvodu problémy.Toto je nie elektrické SUV. Omodu 5 poháňa benzínový 1.6 T-GDI, čo je štvorvalcový benzínový motor so solídnym výkonom 108 kW (147 koní). Má krútiaci moment až 275 Nm, automatická prevodovka má 7 stupňov a dve spojky. Vskutku dobrý základ pre dynamickú jazdu.Po týždni však musíme uznať, že nás tento motor mierne sklamal pre svoju veľmi priemernú pružnosť. Na diaľnici nám neraz pripravil nemilé prekvapenie, keď reagoval s oneskorenami a príliš rozvážne. Práca automatickej prevodovky bola chvíľami tiež príliš citeľná, tendencia podtáčať motor je tu zrejme kvôli spĺňaniu nárokov emisnej normy EURO 6e.Lenže pri mestských rýchlostiach sme vedeli oceniť kultivovaný chod, pokojný jazdný prejav a dosť dobrú schopnosť tlmičov filtrovať nerovnosti. Omoda 5 má vzadu vpredu nápravu typu MacPherson, čo je štandard, no vzadu viacprvkovú nápravu multi-link. To už štandard nie je, mnohé európske kompaktné SUV majú vzadu len tuhé nápravy, teda závislé zavesenie kolies. Azda aj to prospieva stabilite vozidla v meste aj pri ofenzívnom jazdnom štýle, no nevyhýba sa nakláňaniu karosérie. A vyslovene nás Omoda 5 vytrápila v miernom teréne, kde sa karoséria vyslovene zmietala. Skrátka, toto auto je určené na spevnenú vozovku, čo najkvalitnejšiu.Omoda 5 ICE na Slovensku ponúka...

Recording date: 14th October 2025Derek Macpherson, Executive Chairman of Olive Resource Capital, and CEO Sam Pelaez presented their outlook on the evolving commodity markets during their October 14, 2025 Compass podcast. Their analysis highlights a transition from precious metals dominance toward broader industrial commodity opportunities driven by monetary policy and structural supply constraints.Gold continues trading at $4,100 with silver exceeding $50 per ounce despite recent Middle East peace developments. Pelaez emphasized that global liquidity has reached all-time highs, surpassing pandemic levels, and maintains the highest correlation with gold performance. This monetary backdrop combines with central banks actively reducing US dollar exposure, creating sustained precious metals support independent of geopolitical developments.The hosts identified emerging opportunities in industrial metals based on cyclical patterns. US manufacturing contracted for 33 of the last 36 months, creating conditions similar to previous troughs. Federal Reserve rate cuts combined with Chinese monetary easing now target manufacturing activity directly. Pelaez questioned whether markets are entering "the early innings of an industrial recovery for the metals."Copper emerged as particularly attractive given supply constraints at four of the world's top ten assets including Cobre Panama, Kamoa-Kakula, Grasberg, and QB2. Macpherson noted these production challenges create tight supply conditions that would respond dramatically to manufacturing demand recovery.Government intervention in critical minerals represents another strategic focus. The US Department of Defense committed $1 billion to stockpiling programs, creating price floors that protect domestic producers from Chinese market manipulation. Pelaez highlighted CoTec's exclusive US licensing for magnet recycling technology as exemplifying opportunities in processing rather than traditional mining, avoiding extraction complexities while benefiting from government support.The firm views the current environment as following historical bull market progression from gold through silver and platinum group metals toward base and industrial commodities. Macpherson advised following government capital flows given their superior balance sheets and extended investment horizons. Olive Resource Capital continues positioning for subsequent market phases while maintaining focus on alpha generation in less liquid segments where fundamental analysis drives outperformance.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/categories/commodities/goldhttps://cruxinvestor.com/categories/commodities/silverhttps://cruxinvestor.com/categories/commodities/copper

Recording date: 2nd October 2025Welcome back to Compass, Olive Resource Capital's weekly markets and portfolio insights show, hosted by Derek MacPherson (Executive Chairman) and Sam Pelaez (President, CEO & CIO). Each week, we cut through the noise in mining and metals, highlighting the most important macro developments and drilling down into the companies shaping our portfolio.In this episode, we unpack a week of pivotal news for both major gold producers and junior explorers. At the very top of the market, Newmont and Barrick—two of the world's largest gold companies—announced leadership changes on the same day. Newmont's move was a planned succession from COO to CEO, signaling stability and continuity as the company enters a new phase of growth. Barrick, however, surprised the market with an interim appointment following the sudden departure of Mark Bristow. This contrast highlights the broader cycle shift from defensive, balance-sheet-focused leadership to growth-oriented CEOs ready to capitalise on a bull gold market.The coincidence of both announcements has reignited speculation about deeper industrial alignment. With Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo already jointly operated, strategic synergies are clear. A combined or further integrated entity could also benefit from passive investment flows, with Newmont's S&P 500 inclusion forcing index-tracking funds to increase their exposure. While no deal has been announced, the industrial and financial rationale for closer alignment between Newmont and Barrick is stronger than ever.Beyond the majors, the week delivered extraordinary news from Olive's portfolio companies. Sterling Metals announced a discovery hole at its Soo Copper project in Ontario - 262 metres at 1% copper equivalent—re-rating the stock by more than 200% in a single day. Years of geological groundwork positioned the company for this success, underscoring the importance of disciplined preparation.Prospector Metals delivered another standout intercept: 44 metres at 13 g/t gold with 1.8% copper at its Mike Lake project. Shares surged nearly 280% and have held those gains. As part of the Discovery Group, Prospector demonstrated how systematic geological work and strong stewardship can unlock transformative discoveries.By contrast, Midnight Sun Mining illustrates the risk of overextended valuations. The company reported nearly 40 metres at .5% copper from its Dumbwa target in Zambia, yet shares fell around 20% as the market had already priced in perfection. The case highlights why entry point and expectations matter as much as geological success.The financing environment also shows renewed strength, with over C$100 million raised across juniors in the past week. With seasonal drill programs now underway, investors should expect a steady cadence of results through year-end. Majors may also lean further into M&A, project acceleration, and capital returns as gold prices remain near record highs.

AI isn't a magic fix—it's a magnifier. In this episode of Built On Purpose, Max Hansen sits down with Jeff MacPherson to explore why AI often exposes broken systems instead of solving them, and how leaders can prepare their companies to scale the right way. Jeff shares lessons from losing his first startup in a Facebook lawsuit, building three tech companies from scratch, and helping CEOs map customer journeys, rebuild processes, and train AI on their unique strengths instead of generic tools. If you're wondering how to bring AI into your business without creating chaos, this conversation is your roadmap.

Join us for an in-depth discussion with guest speakers Dr. Andrea Cercek and Dr. Nancy You, where we provide a comprehensive look at the growing challenge of EOCRC. Hosts: - Dr. Janet Alvarez - General Surgery Resident at New York Medical College/Metropolitan Hospital Center - Dr. Wini Zambare – General Surgery Resident at Weill Cornell Medical Center/New York Presbyterian - Dr. Phil Bauer, Graduating Colorectal Surgical Oncology Fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Dr. J. Joshua Smith MD, PhD, Chair, Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center - Dr. Andrea Cercek - Gastrointestinal Medical Oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Dr. Y. Nancy You, MD MHSc - Professor, Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center Learning objectives: - Describe trends in incidence of colorectal cancer, with emphasis on the rise of EOCRC. - Identify age groups and demographics most affected by EOCRC. - Summarize USPSTF recommendations for colorectal cancer screening. - Distinguish between screening methods (e.g., colonoscopy, FIT-DNA) and their sensitivity. - Understand treatment approaches for colon and rectal cancer (CRC) - Understand the role of mismatch repair (MMR) status in guiding treatment. - Outline the importance of genetic counseling and testing in young patients. - Discuss racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in CRC incidence and outcomes. - Describe the impact of cancer treatment on fertility and sexual health. - Review fertility preservation options. - Identify the value of integrated care teams for young CRC patients.

Elle Macpherson is a supermodel, actress, and entrepreneur. Nicknamed "The Body" at the height of her modeling career, Macpherson appeared to have it all - but looking back, she says she didn't appreciate herself in her twenties and thirties, struggling with addiction and eventually entering rehab for alcoholism. Macpherson's sobriety renewed her commitment to health, and in 2014 she launched her wellness brand, WelleCo. Just three years later, after being diagnosed with breast cancer, she underwent two lumpectomies and chose a holistic approach over conventional treatment. Macpherson sat down with Hoda to talk about her career, her wellness journey and why she feels more alive than ever.
