Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. As always, thanks for all of the great questions! Today's podcast is a special one... In it, I lift the curtains on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! On today’s interview I bring back the most connected expert in the mining industry – founder of Katusa Research, Marin Katusa. Before Marin joins us, however, the episode begins with this week’s Educational Segment. The recent AT&T-Time Warner deal has the potential to bring the biggest trends in the world under one umbrella. Forget what the all the analysts are saying… as I explain why I’ll soon be adding more stock to my current position. Then, stay tuned as I’m joined by resource legend, Marin Katusa. As he puts it, the gold “trend is our friend.” After years of setbacks, Marin talks about how major gold producers are finally in position for growth. Switching gears, Marin then dives into the future of alternative energy. He explains how the sector has changed significantly… and what these new technologies mean for investors going forward. To end the interview, Marin and I discuss the evolution of personal finance. Investors don’t need typical br

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Our guest this week is the single best gold-stock analyst I know, John Doody. He is the editor for the now-famous Gold Stock Analyst Newsletter. To start off the interview, John and I talk about gold's biggest misconception. The truth is, we do NOT know what the price of gold will be going forward. However, after recent pullbacks, John reassures investors by giving us the big picture. He explains how one "inevitable" key factor will ultimately drive the price of gold... and that nothing else we hear matters. John's "old-school" mentality is one of a kind. He is a fundamentalist. He tells listeners how to protect their savings, and as you will hear, its not only about gold. Later in the episode, John breaks down his secrets to finding the world's most undervalued mining stocks. His analysis includes the biggest names in the industry, junior miners, and the "least risky" business models to invest in. I don't say this often, but I believe we're on the bri

Welcome back to Wall Street Unplugged! This week's episode is a special one. A lot of ground is covered as I have, not one... but two separate interviews. I am first joined by CEO Greg Smith. Listen in as Greg introduces his company, JDL Gold Corp., and explains how they have the recipe to become next "superstar" in the mining industry. After just their first week of trading, Greg talks about the company's future plans and projects going forward. This is not your typical mining company... and apart from the insiders, not many people have heard of it. However, JDL Gold might have the greatest shareholder base I have ever seen in the industry. Just wait until you hear this list... Our second guest is current managing director & portfolio manager at Point View Wealth Management, John Petrides [40:45]. As we enter earnings season, John and I talk about recent stock evaluations. At one point, John compares today's market to 2008! After six straight quarters of negative earnings growth, John shares his thoughts

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Our guest is founder and chairman of Casey Research, Doug Casey. On this episode, Doug starts off by explaining why he believes an "inevitable" economic meltdown is around the corner. As Doug puts it, economic bubbles are forming in every financial market around us... except one. Lets face it, speculative investing is not for everyone. In the interview, however, Doug tells listeners how to follow his footsteps. Doug is the most successful speculative investor I know, so when he talks I listen. Tune in as Doug gives his bold forward looking predictions. You might not agree with everything… but like any risky investment, these are ideas that can give you extraordinary returns. Also, Doug gives us a sneak-peek of his new book Speculator. The story shares everything Doug has ever learned in the mining industry. This is a “must read” for every resource stock investor. Don’t miss out on this week’s Educational Segment [52:56]. After a slight fallout in the g

Welcome back! On this episode of Wall Street Unplugged, I’m joined by one of the most brilliant minds in the royalty industry, Nolan Watson. Nolan is the former CFO of Silver Wheaton and current CEO & President of Sandstorm Gold (SAND). Nolan starts off the interview by explaining how he works in one of the most unique, low-risk business models out there. He shows us why one of the worst periods in the resource sector, 2012-2015, has turned into a ‘game-changer’ for his company. You see, Sandstorm Gold is not a miner. It is a highly profitable royalty and streaming company. Companies like his know how to take advantage of the market in ANY condition, regardless of the price of gold. Listen in as Nolan explains how the company has added over 100 streams and royalties just over the past 24 months! He then reveals Sandstorm’s strong position looking forward… an outlook investors don’t want to miss. PS – Stay tuned for this week’s Educational Segment [42:39] as I talk about one of the most popular companies i

My favorite retail expert and founder of The Talented Blonde, Kristin Bentz, joins us for this week's special episode. On today's interview, Kristin gives listeners an interesting refresher on the retail markets. The 30-year retail veteran gives her "ahead of trend" analysis on what to expect as the holiday season is approaching. She explains why investors should take action now as companies are currently positioning themselves for their most important quarter. Kristin then talks about the shift of competition in the retail markets. These days, consumer spending and shopping trends are always changing. Kristin shares her thoughts on what sectors in the industry are "too little, too late" compared to those that are moving in the right direction. On today's Educational Segment I'll be breaking down last week's Delivering Alpha Conference. This is where the greatest asset-managers in the world get together to share their ideas and forecasts. Not only did I get front-row seats, I was the only newsletter writer in

Our guest this week is founder and chairman of Brazil Resources, Amir Adnani. As we enter the early stages of a likely precious-metal bull market, few are more prepared than Amir. His company, Brazil Resources, has grown over 400% just this past year. On today's episode, Amir gives us some reassuring factors for this upcoming quarter and explains why investors have yet to miss the boat. Amir shares with us how Brazil Resources has something that 99% of other developmental-gold companies don't have. He then breaks down Brazil Resources recent 'under-the-radar' acquisition which expects to bring a massive 40% asset-base increase. After this, you'll see why Brazil Resources is in a very unique place. We then touch up on two of the most important factors a successful junior mining company can have. In addition, Amir breaks down a possible added benefit for shareholders covering a "hidden" sector at its 10-year-low. Amir then ends the episode telling us his goals for Brazil Resources and how their disciplined, com

Today I have another special interview with longtime friend, Marin Katusa, founder of Katusa Research. Marin starts off this episode by giving us his outlook concerning the gold and silver markets. Marin shares his thoughts on how to navigate through this tough sector, giving us details on what to look for while these stocks are still in their early stages. Marin then gives us his insight on where gold prices are going to be in the next three to five years based on just two fundamental aspects. He then talks about "smart money" and his experience with warrants and why every accredited investor should be aware of these opportunities. Finally, Marin shares some interesting ideas on what to look forward to in other commodity sectors aside from gold and silver. These are sectors that not everyone will agree with, but potentially have tremendous upside in the near future. Don’t miss out on this week’s exclusive educational segment covering the popular short sale of First Majestic Silver (AG). By the end of this se

Steve Koomar, former derivative trader at Goldman Sachs and editor of the Vigilante Investor newsletter, explains why the fears of a U.S. economic collapse are completely overblown. He believes the U.S. economy is "exceptional" and will always be the premier destination for capital due to its "unparallel geographic advantages."   Steve then talks about his favorite sectors to invest in right now. They include depressed areas like natural gas, agriculture, and ethanol. He says the fundamentals in these sectors are turning positive and stocks are still dirt cheap.   Finally, Steve shares his top stock picks within these sectors. He believes each name has incredible upside over the next 12 to 18 months.

My guest this week is longtime friend, Marc Lichtenfeld, Chief Income Strategist at the Oxford Club. Marc joins me in a talk about perpetual dividend raisers and the absolute fortune investors can make by compounding dividends over long periods. He also shares one of his secrets to buying some of the best high-yielding companies at dirt cheap prices. Marc then breaks down the biotech sector, an industry he's covered for years.

Also, he shares with us his favorite small-cap biotech name to buy right now.
