Robert Sinn, (aka Goldfinger on CEO.ca and CeoTechnican on X) and publisher of Goldfinger Capital on YouTube and Substack, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the sentiment shift and technical outlook on gold, silver, copper, the tax loss selling seasonal trade from now into Q1,  valuations in different stages of companies, and a number of value propositions in related resource stocks.   We start off unpacking the shift in sentiment since the October highs in the precious metals, while noting that the current prices continue to stay well above $4,000 gold and $50 silver is creating some interesting trades over the medium-term.  We discuss how money has rotated down the risk curve from the producers and quality developers into the optionality plays, advanced explorers, and discovery-stage exploration companies, but many are now well off their recent highs.  This brings up the topic of what kind of tax loss selling season we are going to see this year in precious metals stocks, where seniors are well in the green and yet there are some junior explorers that may be in the red from where people bought them.   Next we dive into the copper market, the dichotomy between copper producers and copper juniors, and review potential opportunities in the explorers and developers.  We review that US states like Idaho, Nevada, and Arizona or Canadian provinces like British Columbia or the Yukon still remain go-to jurisdictions for copper companies. Robert highlights Hercules Metals Corp. (TSXV: BIG) (OTCQB: BADEF) as a case study for a copper explorer that has made a meaningful discovery, and yet it is a tax loss selling candidate that he believes has a compelling value proposition at current prices.   Wrapping up we briefly touch upon US administration tailwinds and supply/demand imbalances that make critical minerals another area of opportunity.  Robert mentions that Fireweed Metals (TSXV: FWZ) (OTCQX: FWEDF) and Talon Metals (TSX: TLO) (OTC: TLOFF) have compelling projects that may receive some more government funds or less restrictive permitting hurtles to aid in their expedited development.   Follow Robert's analysis on Substack   https://ceo.ca/@goldfinger   Click here to follow Robert on X/Twitter   https://www.youtube.com/@GoldfingerCapital/videos   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

"Your value proposition is the reason people choose you." What happens when Michael Dargie hands over the mic to branding legend JP Lacroix? In this takeover episode, they unpack the lessons behind BrandJitsu and why truth and clarity are the foundation of every brand story. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In this special takeover episode, Michael Dargie flips the script and lets branding veteran Jean Pierre Lacroix take the host's chair. The focus is Michael's book BrandJitsu, which JP describes as one of the most insightful books on positioning he's read in his 40+ years of brand transformation work . JP probes the origins of the book—how it accidentally shifted from a West Coast adventure narrative into a hands-on branding guide—and why Michael felt compelled to put decades of client work into a framework anyone could use. At the heart of the conversation is the metaphor of jiu jitsu: fast, effective techniques to defend against brand confusion, grounded in truth and clarity . The two explore the fundamentals of the BrandJitsu model: defining purpose and values, clarifying value propositions, and using archetypes to shape brand personality. Michael explains why brands need to know who they are, what they do, who they serve, and why anyone should care. They discuss the importance of storytelling—how even one short line, like Nike's "There is no finish line," can hold more power than a thousand ad campaigns . Along the way, Michael shares stories from client work, including how a funeral home found its voice in a campaign called Life by Mary, shifting focus from grief to celebration. He also explains the "brand playbook" process he uses with companies: two intensive weeks of truth-finding, alignment, and clarity that result in a living guide to identity and positioning . The episode underscores why branding isn't about logos or taglines, but about aligning internal purpose with external storytelling. For entrepreneurs, executives, and creative rebels alike, BrandJitsu offers a way to cut through the noise and build something meaningful. Quoteable Quotes "Truth and clarity—that's all the bottom stuff is." — Michael Dargie "Your brand is the Yoda, not the Luke Skywalker." — Michael Dargie "It's not as complicated as you think. Branding is simple—it's just a bunch of little pieces." — Michael Dargie "Your value proposition is the reason people choose you." — Michael Dargie Episode Highlights RebelRebel Takeover | JP Lacroix interviews Michael about BrandJitsu.

Recorded Monday October 27th:  Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us for a nuanced discussion on how company valuations can shift more due to investor sentiment than on actual fundamentals and newsflow during precious metals pullbacks. These are opportunities for resource investors to exploit these market disconnects.    We start off looking at how companies releasing positive news are still being sold off indiscriminately, due to the overall shift in sector sentiment, as we've seen the gold and silver prices continue retreating from their highs of 2 weeks ago.   We start off noting the deeper pullbacks are occurring in the stock that conversely went up the most on the recent runs to new highs.   It makes sense to see the pullbacks in the  PM producers due to their tighter correlation with PM prices.  Erik points out that metals prices are much less relevant to junior exploration companies or even early-stage developers still many years away from metals prices affecting future production.   This type of environment where banked success is selling down in tandem with companies that may not even have any defined gold or silver ounces in the ground has Erik animated by the 2nd wave of the Lassonde Curve, where developers go on a run as the market rerates their projects and leverage to higher metals prices down the road.   Erik highlights how he disregards fluctuations in valuations based on sentiment, focusing on longer-term value investing principles and companies that have catalysts on the horizon. He outlines the strategy for making peer comparisons on valuation changes, that may differ on fundamental news drivers, even though there are comparative percentage drops in share price or market caps; making one group of companies more attractive. We also discuss how Erik is fully deployed, so he uses a “value shuffling” approach to high-grading his portfolio with the companies that have the most upside potential based on fundamental catalysts.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Nick presents founders and business owners with a powerful diagnostic tool—the Business Model Diagnosis—to address stalled growth, which is often mistakenly attributed to poor marketing or sales. He breaks down the five core components of any successful business model—Customer Segments, Value Proposition, Revenue Model, Delivery Mechanism, and Operational Excellence—and presents 15 key questions designed to evaluate and optimise the entire business engine KEY TAKEAWAYS Stalled growth is often a symptom of a broken business model (the core engine of the business) and not just a marketing or sales problem, requiring a shift in perspective to look at the business from a higher, 30,000-foot perspective. The business model is comprised of five core, interrelated components: Customer Segments, Value Proposition, Revenue Model, Delivery Mechanism, and Operational Excellence. A powerful strategy is to trim product lines and audiences and "cut to your most profitable customer" to reduce complexity and focus resources on what is driving the most valuable growth. Founders can unlock rapid growth by re-engineering the revenue model, which includes adding recurring revenue, introducing tiered pricing, or offering performance-based upsells to increase order value and customer lifetime value. BEST MOMENTS "If growth is stalled, it's probably not your sales team, it's probably not your marketing funnel either. The truth, most of the time from my experience, is your business model. So let's fix that today." "You don't need perfect scores, but if you've got weak points across, as I said, two to three of these areas, that's likely the root cause of your growth issues for now." "When your business model is right, everything else gets easier. When it's wrong, nothing works. So you've got to fix the business model first."

Larry says that FM professionals must move beyond surface-level discussions and align with the broader strategic goals of the organization, focused on having a horizontal impact, not a vertical one, to better align with cross-functional needs. Traditional financial metrics are necessary but insufficient, so facility managers need to measure the success of their efforts in terms of impactful outcomes and employee experience. Mike and Larry agree that professionals must continuously upskill and expand their networks to stay relevant, so they recommend IFMA connections and offer the practical advice and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to review why the value proposition in the exploration alpha plays are based around news catalysts and milestones, more so that higher metals prices.  For this very reason, he's less interested in the sector sentiment turns we've seen in the valuations of producers and advanced developers in the higher underlying metals price environment, and more animated by the fundamental prospectivity of the explorers that haven't moved up as much yet, but have the biggest potential for gains if they deliver on their thesis and make a discovery and define a significant future economic deposit.   Erik discusses some of the nuances around valuing the potential upside in gold and copper exploration companies, that have compelling drill targets, large strategic shareholders that have already vetting the projects and management teams, are in the right jurisdictions, and that have the potential for rapid upside moves if they make compelling discoveries while expanding resources.     >> The companies we discussed in the interview are:   Red Canyon Resources Ltd.

There's something happening in the financial coaching world that's got a lot of us feeling uneasy. Maybe you've heard the whispers, or maybe you've been losing sleep over it yourself. AI is coming for our jobs, they say. Clients can just ask ChatGPT for financial advice now. Why would they need us?I've been watching this conversation unfold in coaching groups and on Reddit, and I've got to tell you—the fear is real, but it's also missing the point entirely. Because here's what I've learned from working with coaches who are already experimenting with AI, and from my own experience using these tools: the question isn't whether AI will replace us. It's how we're going to use it to become even better at what we already do.Think about the last time a client came to you. Did they need someone to crunch numbers? Or did they need someone who could see the hesitation in their voice when they talked about starting that business? Someone who noticed their body language shift when debt came up? Someone who understood that their financial decisions weren't really about money at all, but about the stories they've been telling themselves for years?That's the thing about transformation. It's messy in a way that AI simply can't navigate. And transformation is what we're really in the business of, isn't it?I've had clients try AI tools for financial guidance, only to come back because they missed something they couldn't quite name. They missed the relationship. They missed being truly seen and understood. And they missed having someone who cared about their success in a way that went beyond just giving them the right answer.And while AI can't replace what we do, it can absolutely make us better at doing it. I've been experimenting with ways to use AI as my behind-the-scenes assistant, handling some administrative stuff that drains my energy so I can focus on the human work that only I can do. And the results have been pretty remarkable.This week, I'm sharing more about this timely topic and why AI isn't going to replace you. Instead, I want you to understand exactly what makes you irreplaceable so you can use technology to lean into those strengths even more.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupKey Takeaways:AI can analyze numbers, but it can't feel the pit in your stomach from buyer's remorse or recognize the fear behind someone's excitement about starting a business. THIS is what makes you irreplaceable.Use AI to handle the mechanical tasks so you can spend more time on the meaningful work that transforms lives.What is rare becomes priceless. As technology advances, human connection becomes increasingly valuable, not less.Your clients need more than information. They need someone who notices their body language when discussing money topics and hears the hesitation in their voice.Pick one repetitive task that doesn't require your unique expertise and experiment with AI handling it this week.Be upfront with clients about how you use AI in your business. This builds trust and shows them where technology ends and your human expertise begins.Double down on your humanity. The coaches thriving with AI aren't replacing their human touch. Rather, they're using technology to create more space for deeper, more personal client interactions.

In this episode, Tyler talks about the disconnect between what builders show in an estimate and what clients truly need to understand. He dives deep into why leading with transparency, breaking down the budget, and walking clients through each line item creates trust, protects your margins, and actually helps win more jobs. By shifting from defending your price to explaining your value, you transform how clients perceive your worth—and how your business operates.
