States can determine the method of how they draw districts but for many years Southern states were required to submit boundaries for review to ensure compliance with civil rights legislation such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965.The Republican Party currently holds a narrow majority in the U.S. House of Representatives with 219 members to 213 Democrats with three vacancies. One of those vacancies has been filled in a special election in Arizona won on September 23 by Democrat Adelita Grijalva but Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has so far refused to swear her in until he calls the full House of Representatives back into session.According to the Texas Tribune, redistricting in Texas is expected to create five additional safe seats for Republicans. The state's delegation of 38 Representatives consists of 25 Republicans, 12 Democrats, and one vacancy. Governor Greg Abbott signed the new Congressional map on August 29 with no need for voters to approve the measure.In response, California Governor Gavin Newsome, a Democrat, suggested legislation called the “Election Rigging Response Act” in direct response to the new maps in Texas, and a voter initiative to redraw maps in the nation's largest state mentions efforts underway by Republicans to redistrict in Florida, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, New Hampshire, Nebraska, and South Carolina. Proposition 50 is on the ballot on November 4.Last week, the Virginia Political Newsletter reported that Democrats who control a narrow majority in the General Assembly are seeking to follow California's lead. On Monday, the House of Delegates agreed to take up House Joint Resolution 6007 which would amend the Virginia Constitution to allow the General Assembly to make a one-time adjustment.The General Assembly is able to meet because a special session from 2024 was never technically adjourned. To allow consideration of the Constitutional amendment, the joint resolution that sets the rules for the special session had to be changed and agreed to by both the House of Delegates and the Virginia Senate.One adopted on February 22 of this year lists six items of acceptable business including memorials and resolutions commending people or businesses. A seventh was added to House Joint Resolution 6006 which was introduced by Delegate Charniele Herring (D-4) on October 24. This would allow a “joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of Virginia related to reapportionment or redistricting.”Both the House of Delegates and the Virginia Senate convened on Monday, October 27.As the debate in the House of Delegates began, Delegate Bobby Orrock (R-66) made a parliamentary inquiry.“My first inquiry would be given that special sessions have by their very nature only occurred for specific reasons. Ergo, we have resolutions controlling what can be considered during them. And subsequently, to my knowledge and experience here, they've never extended for more than a one year period.”Orrock said the 2024 Special Session was continued to allow progress toward adopting a budget that year. He said that had taken place and the stated reason for the special session was moot.The amendment itself was not made available until Tuesday afternoon. More on that later.Delegate Jay Leftwich (R-90) read from §30-13 of the Virginia Code which lays out what steps the Clerk of the House of Delegates has to take when publishing proposed amendments to the Constitution.“It goes on to say, Mr. Speaker, the Clerk of the House of Delegates shall have published all proposed amendments to the constitution for the distribution from his office and to the clerk of the circuit court of each county and the city two copies of the proposed amendments, one of which shall be posted at the front door of the courthouse and the other shall be made available for public inspection,” Leftwich said.Delegate Herring countered that that section of code predates the Virginia Constitution of 1971 which does not have those requirements. Leftwich continued to press on this note but Speaker of the House Don Scott ruled that his questions were not germane to the procedural issue.Delegate Lee Ware (R-72) said the move across the United States to redraw districts mid-Census to gain partisan advantage was a bad idea no matter what party was proposing it.“Just because a bad idea was proposed and even taken up by a few of our sister states such as North Carolina or California, is not a reason for Virginia to follow suit,” Ware said. “ For nearly two and a half centuries, the states have redistricted following the decennial census, responding to the population shifts both in our country and in the states.”A motion to amend HJ6006 passed 50 to 42.The House of Delegates currently only has 99 members due to the resignation of Todd Gilbert. Gilbert had been named as the U.S. Attorney for Western Virginia but lasted for less than a month. Former Albemarle Commonwealth's Attorney Robert Tracci was appointed to the position on an interim basis.Charlottesville Community Engagement is a reader-supported publication.

Democrats have a 21 to 19 majority and were unable that day to suspend the rules to immediately consider an amendment to HJ6006. They had a second reading on Tuesday.The initial discussion of the Constitutional amendment took place during a portion of the meeting where Senators got to speak on matters of personal privilege. As with the House of Delegates, many inquiries from Republican legislators happened because the document itself was not yet available for review.Senator Bill Stanley (R–20) rose to remind his colleagues that the General Assembly passed a bipartisan Constitutional amendment to require that redistricting be conducted by a nonpartisan committee.“We listened to Virginians who were tired of the gerrymandering,” Stanley said. “In 2019, polls showed 70 percent of Virginians supported redistricting reform. Not 51 percent, not 55 percent, [but] 70 percent. The Mason Dixon poll showed 72% support. And crucially, over 60 percent of Republicans and Democrats alike supported this amendment. Equally when it came to a vote in the Commonwealth. This was not partisan.”Senator Mamie Locke (D-2) served on the bipartisan redistricting committee and reminded her colleagues that the process broke down in October 2021, as I reported at the time. The Virginia Supreme Court ended up appointing two special masters to draw the current boundaries.“There was constant gridlock and partisan roadblocks,” Locke said. “[Those] Were the reasons why the Supreme Court ended up drawing the lines because the commission ended up discussing things as tedious as which university could be trusted to provide unbiased data.”Locke said the proposal in Virginia would still have a bipartisan commission draw new maps after the 2030 Census and that voters in Virginia would still have to approve the amendment.Senator Scott Surovell (D-34) said the amendment is intended to step in when other branches of government are not exercising their Constitutional authority to provide checks and balances. He echoed Locke's comment that the redistricting commission would continue to exist.“There's no maps that have been drawn,” Surovell said. “There's no repeal of the constitutional amendment. The only thing that's on the table or will be on the table later this week is giving the General assembly the option to take further action in January to then give Virginia voters the option of protecting our country.”Senator Richard Stuart (R-25) said he thinks President Trump is doing a job of bringing manufacturing back to the country and dismissed Surovell's notion that democracy is at threat.“I'm not seeing any threat to democracy,” Stuart said. “I heard the word king, and I would remind the Senator that if he was a king, he would be beheaded for what he just said. But in this country, we enjoy free speech. We get to say what we want to say, and that is a valued right and privilege.”Senator Barbara Favola (D-40) said many of her constituents are concerned about cuts to federal programs due to the recent passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill including threats to Medicaid. She explained why she supports her Democratic colleagues in Congress in the current state of things.“We are in a shutdown situation because the Democrats are standing up and saying we must extend the tax credits that are available on the health marketplace so individuals can afford their insurance,” Favola said. “Health insurance. This is not going unnoticed by the Virginians we represent.”Senator Mark Peake (R-22) said Republicans were entitled to govern how they want because they are in control of the federal government.“The current president won an overwhelming majority in the Electoral College and he won the popular vote by over 4 million or 5 million votes,” Peake said. “That is called democracy. That is what we have. And the Republicans won the Senate and they won the House of Congress. We will have another election next year and it will be time for the citizens to vote. But we are going under a democracy right now, and that's where we stand.”The points of personal privilege continued. Senator Schuyler VanValkenburg (D-72) said elections are a chance for citizens to weigh in on a presidency that started the process of mid-Census redistricting.“The key point is this,” VanValkenburg said. “The president's ideas are unpopular. He knows it. He's going to his ideological friends, he's asking them to carve up maps, and now the other side is upset because they're going to get called on it in elections.”The Senate adjourned soon afterward and will take up a third reading of HJ6006 today.Democrats file Constitutional Amendment for first referenceEarly discussions about a potential constitutional amendment in the House of Delegates and the Virginia Senate this week did not include a lot of details about how a mid-Census Congressional redistricting would take place.House Joint Resolution 6007 was filed with the Virginia Legislative Information System on Tuesday, October 28. As of this publication it is in the House Privileges and Elections Committee because the Senate has not yet given itself permission to take up the matter.The amendment would amend Article II, Section 6, of the Virginia Constitution to insert language into the second paragraph.Here is the full text, with italicized words indicating new language.The Commonwealth shall be reapportioned into electoral districts in accordance with this section and Section 6-A in the year 2021 and every ten years thereafter, except that the General Assembly shall be authorized to modify one or more congressional districts at any point following the adoption of a decennial reapportionment law, but prior to the next decennial census, in the event that any State of the United States of America conducts a redistricting of such state's congressional districts at any point following that state's adoption of a decennial reapportionment law for any purpose other than (i) the completion of the state's decennial redistricting in response to a federal census and reapportionment mandated by the Constitution of the United States and established in federal law or (ii) as ordered by any state or federal court to remedy an unlawful or unconstitutional district map.Take a look at the whole text here.

On October 28, 1929, a day known as Black Monday, the New York Stock Exchange suffered its greatest one-day loss in history.

This was the start of an extended bear market that saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average drop 89% in just under three years and ushered in the period we know as the Great Depression.

Chris is the rare threepeat CEO. He has taken three outperforming companies public on the New York Stock Exchange, two of which he personally conceived and co-founded. By the time he stepped down from the third of these companies in 2021, he and his team had built the company's market value to just north of $10 billion and counted as their largest shareholder Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. And when he stepped away, he didn't step back. He leaned in, writing the first book on how companies create wealth called “The Value Equation: A Business Guide to Wealth Creation for Entrepreneurs, Leaders and Investors.” Most multimillionaires achieve their wealth through the ownership of equity in one or more businesses and Chris wanted to show how this happens and lay out the characteristics of the best businesses. And now, Chris is embarking on a video series to further spread the word. His first two videos dropped on his YouTube Channel in October and you can expect two a month over the next year. For sure, if you aspire to be a multimillionaire, you need to understand some business basics because that's the best worn path to being in this club. And Chris' aim is to make this club less exclusive.Learn more: http://www.christopherhvolk.com/Influential Entrepreneurs with Mike Saundershttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/influential-entrepreneurs-with-mike-saunders/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-christopher-volk-author-of-the-value-equation

E se potessi investire direttamente nelle tue previsioni? Non su un'azione che potrebbe salire se un evento accade, ma sull'evento stesso: dall'esito di un'elezione all'approvazione di una legge, fino al vincitore del prossimo Super Bowl. Questo mondo esiste, si chiama Prediction Markets (mercati predittivi) ed è una delle frontiere più esplosive e affascinanti della finanza moderna. Un settore nuovo, in piena espansione e ricco di opportunità per chi sa come muoversi. In questa puntata di "Investire Semplicemente", facciamo un viaggio completo per capire questa nuova asset class: Cosa sono i mercati predittivi e perché il loro meccanismo, basato sulla "saggezza della folla", è spesso più accurato dei sondaggi tradizionali. La storia: dalle aule universitarie dell'Iowa Electronic Markets fino alla rivoluzione della blockchain che li ha resi globali. I due giganti a confronto: un'analisi approfondita di Polymarket (il pioniere decentralizzato su blockchain) e Kalshi (la prima piattaforma pienamente regolamentata negli USA). Opportunità e rischi: come capitalizzare le proprie conoscenze di nicchia, fare hedging su rischi reali e quali sono le insidie da non sottovalutare, dalla liquidità alla regolamentazione. Scopri perché persino la New York Stock Exchange sta investendo miliardi in questo settore e come i mercati predittivi potrebbero diventare uno degli strumenti più potenti nell'arsenale di un investitore nei prossimi dieci anni.

In This Episode In this episode of Systems Simplified, Adi Klevit speaks with Peter Goldstein about how entrepreneurs can build investor-ready companies by shifting their mindset and establishing strong systems early on. Peter shares his journey from launching a specialty food distribution company in New York in his twenties to achieving his first strategic exit at age 30. This early success shaped his perspective on scaling, exiting, and eventually working in capital markets with companies around the world A central theme is the exit mindset, the practice of running a business as if it is preparing for a future sale, merger, or IPO. Peter explains how this mindset affects financial reporting, legal frameworks, and operational structures. He uses the analogy of keeping your house in excellent condition not only when you are ready to sell but while you live in it, ensuring both enjoyment and readiness for future opportunities Peter also clarifies that companies do not need to be unicorns to go public. Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange offer tiers suited for smaller, emerging companies. He outlines both the opportunities and the challenges of going public, including governance, compliance, and managing investor expectations. Investors value governance, cash flow, and scalability more than hype, and these elements determine whether a business is truly investor-ready Finally, Peter emphasizes that systems and processes create confidence. When clear, repeatable systems are in place, teams, stakeholders, and investors trust the company's ability to grow and perform consistently.

In his book about the history of LGBTQ venture capital, Jackson Block keeps a card from Gunderson Dettmer that reads: “Nothing good comes out of just staying in your comfort zone. Be uncomfortable and create.” That philosophy has helped guide the co-founder and CEO of LGBT + VC as he bridges finance and social impact. With host Natalie Pierce, Jackson shares how he created the first nonprofit dedicated to advancing LGBTQ+ representation in venture capital. From launching at Netflix to partnering with the New York Stock Exchange in under three years, Jackson discusses his mission to empower 10,000 LGBTQ+ and ally investors by 2030. He explores creative capital's role in reshaping venture investing, from art tech to Broadway tech, demonstrating how purpose and profit work in tandem to build inclusive innovation ecosystems. Episode HighlightsWhile teaching venture capital at City College of New York, Jackson discovered that curricula across 20 universities referenced mostly male venture capitalists and excluded the 300 women-led VC firms documented by industry journals, inspiring him to write his book exploring the history of LGBTQ+ venture capital.Jackson partnered with Acrylic Robotics, founded by an LGBTQ+ entrepreneur, to commission custom art pieces using robots that replicate artists' painting strokes at scale, demonstrating how technology can enable artists to focus on creativity while expanding their reach and financial rewards.Jackson describes what he calls “creative capital” – encompassing user design, media, entertainment, and gaming – as sectors where LGBTQ+ communities find strong representation, noting that approximately 75% of LGBTQ+ people identify as gamers who often seek safer virtual worlds and forms of escapism.Jackson emphasizes that entrepreneurship requires stepping outside comfort zones, explaining that demographics drive destiny in venture capital and that intersecting creative fields with traditional finance brings fresh perspectives.

Prediction markets zijn in korte tijd uitgegroeid tot een opvallend fenomeen binnen de cryptowereld. Platforms als Polymarket laten gebruikers inzetten op de uitkomst van gebeurtenissen: van verkiezingen tot sportwedstrijden en zelfs Nobelprijzen. Wie gelijk krijgt, wint geld van andere deelnemers. Het is geen gok tegen het huis, maar tegen de menigte zelf. En juist dat maakt deze markten interessant, want ze brengen de theorie van de ‘wisdom of the crowds’ in de praktijk. Hoe beter de informatiepositie van alle deelnemers samen, hoe scherper de voorspelling. In deze aflevering vertelt Bram van Roelen, head of product bij investeerder Maven11, over het fenomeen van voorspellingsmarkten en de snellegroei van cryptoplatform Polymarket. Want als een markt iets met 75 procent kans inschat, wat betekent dat dan precies? En hoe betrouwbaar is die collectieve wijsheid eigenlijk? Volgens sommige analisten zijn prediction markets beter in staat verkiezingen of economische gebeurtenissen te voorspellen dan traditionele peilingen, juist omdat deelnemers financieel belang hebben bij een juiste inschatting – ze hebben zogenoemde skin in the game. Toch zijn prediction markets niet nieuw. De Amerikaanse overheid experimenteerde er ooit mee, maar cryptotechnologie heeft de deur opengezet voor een nieuwe generatie. Dankzij de blockchain zijn deze markten grotendeels transparant en kunnen ze functioneren zonder centrale autoriteit. Polymarket is daarbij de bekendste speler, met concurrenten als Manifold en Kalshi. Niet alles is echter even decentraal. Het geld staat in een wallet, maar de afwikkeling van weddenschappen – het settlen – blijft een discussiepunt. Dat gebeurt via protocollen als UMA, maar de vraag wie uiteindelijk bepaalt wat er “waar” is, blijft spannend. De groei van Polymarket gaat ondertussen razendsnel. Het bedrijf haalde onlangs twee miljard dollar op bij investeerders, onder wie de eigenaar van de New York Stock Exchange. De waardering kwam daarmee uit op acht miljard. Er gaan geruchten over een airdrop voor gebruikers, wat de populariteit verder aanwakkert. Tegelijkertijd roept de snelle groei vragen op over regelgeving: mag dit soort handel eigenlijk wel in Nederland of België? En hoe voorkom je dat mensen verslaafd raken aan het ‘gokken op nieuws’? Tot slot bespreekt de tafel hoe prediction markets zich verder kunnen ontwikkelen. Van kleine markten voor politiek en sport naar bredere toepassingen in beleid, onderzoek of risicomanagement. En hoe verhoudt zich dat tot risico’s als insider trading of zelfs manipulatie van gebeurtenissen? Co-host is Bert Slagter, analist bij kennisplatform Bitcoin Alpha.

Send us a textWelcome to Safe Dividend Investing's Podcast 244- (11 October 2025) While preparing for a trip to Bermuda, Ian Duncan MacDonald noticed that three Bermuda registered companies would be appearing in his new investment book. The book analyzes and scores 200 strong, high dividend stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange. That three companies from such a small island would be appearing in the book intrigued Ian so he immediately analyzed and scored them.The three companies were (1) DHT Holdings Inc (stock symbol DHT) (2) Flex LNG Ltd (stock symbol FLNG) (3) SFL Corporation Limited (stock symbol SFL).Ian writes his books for those who do not invest in individual stocks for fear that they will lose their life savings. His books show investors an easy, safe way to select financially strong, safe companies who pay high dividends . Ian knows after successfully investing this way for twenty years that a portfolio of strong dividend stocks provides not only a reliable, growing source of income but over time they will greatly increase the value of a portfolio.Unlike mutual funds - where investors have no control over their investment and only a vague idea as to what stocks are in the fund - a self-directed investor can fully understand and appreciate the value of the portfolio they create.In this podcast (with a written transcript attached) you can get a taste for the factual information that Ian measures and provides to readers building strong, generous portfolios. Which of one of the three Bermuda stocks in this podcast do you think would be a good choice for your portfolio?You may also find Ian's observations on the unique attractiveness of Bermuda as a destination.

Stocks under pressure as the government shutdown begins: Carl Quintanilla, Sara Eisen, and David Faber broke down the latest headlines - and what they mean for stocks, markets, and your wallet with Trivariate's Adam Parker before later getting Apollo Chief Economist Torsten Slok's take on all the action.

In 2008, Beth Gaspich stood on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, ringing the bell as RiskMetrics went public. What made the moment extraordinary was its timing—amid one of the most volatile markets in decades. The IPO decision, she tells us, came “down to the wire.” After months of preparing the S-1, long roadshows, and weekend work with auditors, leadership had to choose: delay indefinitely or seize a fleeting opening. They chose action, and the listing became a defining milestone in her career.That experience shaped her conviction that preparation and clear communication are indispensable when markets are uncertain. It also foreshadowed the way she would later lead NICE through its own transformation. When she became CFO in 2016, NICE was largely an on-premise software company with roughly $1 billion in revenue. Today, she tells us, the firm is approaching $3 billion, with $2.2 billion in cloud revenue. “We don't put boxes around people,” she notes, describing a culture where finance leaders are expected to help drive strategy, not just report results.Her approach to AI investment echoes that belief. She explains that NICE's AI and self-service ARR reached $238 million, growing 42% year-over-year. Rather than measure ROI only through headcount reduction, she emphasizes redeploying people to more strategic work. Internally, AI “champions” in each function track outcomes with KPIs. From ringing the NYSE bell to scaling a global AI platform, Gaspich's journey illustrates how finance leaders can balance precision with boldness when transformation is on the line.
A raid by Homeland Security at a Dallas adult entertainment club last week ended with the arrests of 41 people during a human trafficking and unlawful employment investigation. ICE officers, federal agents and local Dallas officers, descended on Chicas Bonitas Cabaret in the 11000 block of Harry Hines Boulevard Friday night, the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Office. In other news, a second detainee shot in an attack on a Dallas immigration field office last week has died. 31-year old Miguel Ángel García Medina died early Tuesday morning after he was removed from life support; the Texas Stock Exchange announced on Tuesday it had won regulatory approval, achieving a major and long-awaited milestone in its quest to operate as a national exchange alongside the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq; and the Dallas Wings fired head coach Chris Koclanes after just one season. The Wings finished 10–34 and last in the league. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

My guest this week is Kevin Akeroyd, a veteran tech CEO with a career spanning Fortune 500 giants, private equity powerhouses, and venture-backed disruptors. He's currently leading Sovos, a PE-backed tax and compliance AI SaaS platform. Before that, Kevin was CEO of Magna Global, the world's largest contingent workforce technology provider. And prior to that, he took Cision public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2017 as its CEO.

Outside the boardroom, he's a father of five and a sports, music, wine, and travel enthusiast. Kevin also studied at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the University of Washington. Before I bring him on, I'll add that he's also a dear friend, a mentor, a fellow sports nut, and someone I had the pleasure of working with—and for—at Oracle.
“The valuation of the Nasdaq Composite… as a factor of GDP is at the highest ever. The highest valuation of stocks in history,” warns Bert Dohmen, founder of Dohmen Capital Research and publisher of the Wellington Letter. In this interview, he calls it “the most risky time in the markets and geopolitics,” pointing to unprecedented speculation fueled by Fed-driven liquidity. Dohmen cautions against complacency: “Speculation is insane as we have seldom seen it. Margin debt on the New York Stock Exchange is now over $1 trillion… imagine when the margin calls go out and Wall Street starts foreclosing houses.” Drawing from his decades of experience, Dohmen highlights his theory of credit and liquidity: “All you have to know to see if the market is going to go up or down—you look at the trend of liquidity and credit. When they're contracting, the stock market will go down.

Blockchain: Powering the New Digital Trust Dr. Merav Ozair emphasizes that blockchain's impact goes far beyond cryptocurrency. “AI fakes. Blockchain authenticates.” She explains that as AI-generated content and digital interactions grow, we face a crisis of trust. Blockchain's immutable records and decentralized verification can bring authenticity to everything from online identities to supply chain data, ensuring we know what's real in a digital-first world. 2. Diversification and Smart Crypto Investing Sir John Hargrave demystifies crypto investing with simple, practical steps: “Start with a small amount of Bitcoin, maybe a little Ethereum. No more than 10% of your portfolio.” He explains that diversification helps reduce risk while offering exposure to the potential upside of digital assets. His upcoming book, The Intelligent Crypto Investor, provides a clear roadmap for building long-term wealth without gambling on hype or speculation. 3. Democratizing Financial Opportunity Chris Kline highlights how cryptocurrency is opening doors for everyday investors: “Bitcoin and cryptocurrency is the democratization of money—it is the people's currency.” Through platforms like BitcoinIRA, investors can now hold digital assets in secure, regulated retirement accounts, breaking down barriers that once limited access to alternative investments and giving individuals more control over their financial future. 4. Remaining Vigilant in a Rapidly Centralizing Landscape Nick Spanos, a pioneer from the early days of crypto, warns against forgetting its roots: “If these sleaze bags get a hold of it and turn it into what they can manipulate, it's the wrong move for humanity.” He shares how Bitcoin's original ethos was built on decentralization and freedom from centralized control—and why staying vigilant is essential as institutions and governments increasingly enter the space.

Interview with Tim Clark, CEO, Fury Gold MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/fury-gold-mines-tsxfury-multi-asset-canadian-high-grade-gold-explorer-with-strong-financials-5957Recording date: 11th September 2025Fury Gold Mines has emerged as a compelling investment opportunity in the junior gold mining sector, presenting multiple pathways to value creation through its high-grade Eau Claire resource in Quebec and diversified portfolio approach. The company's recently released preliminary economic assessment demonstrates robust standalone economics with a $554 million net present value and 41% internal rate of return, based on conservative $2,400 gold pricing.What sets Fury apart from typical junior miners is its strategic toll milling optionality, which could dramatically enhance returns while reducing capital requirements. Located 50-60 kilometers from an underutilized processing facility, the company has modeled scenarios showing potential IRR increases to 84% under full toll milling arrangements. This flexibility addresses one of the primary challenges facing junior developers: substantial upfront capital expenditure.The company's financial strength provides significant competitive advantages through its $65 million equity position in Dolly Varden Silver Corporation and New York Stock Exchange listing, which grants access to US retail investors comprising two-thirds of the shareholder base. CEO Tim Clark emphasizes this positioning enables selective capital raising while maintaining disciplined dilution management of just 3-4% annually.Beyond the flagship Eau Claire project approaching 2 million ounces, Fury maintains additional growth catalysts including a partnership with Agnico Eagle on Committee Bay properties in Nunavut and recently acquired Quebec assets. The company also holds the only full feasibility study on an unbuilt rare earth project, adding further monetization potential.Despite recent 30% share price appreciation following the PEA release, Clark believes Fury remains significantly undervalued at $25 per ounce compared to peer averages of $50 per ounce. With sustained gold price strength driving renewed investor interest in quality junior miners, Fury appears positioned to capture disproportionate value as market recognition increases and development activities advance across its diversified portfolio.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/fury-gold-minesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
