Ep. 533: Jonathan Awde: Gold at an Inflection Point

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged!   This week, Jonathan Awde joins me on the show. Jonathan, CEO and President of Gold Standard Ventures (NYSE:GSV), gives us an inside look at what’s exactly taking place in today’s dispirited gold sector.   Whether its inflation, geopolitical risks, or weakness in the dollar... As of recent, investors are having a difficult time finding gold’s next growth catalyst…   Jonathan, nonetheless, sheds lights on a much clearer picture.   In part to recently released economic data, he explains why the sector may finally be reaching the tipping point we’ve all been patiently waiting for.   Jonathan then talks about Gold Standard Ventures.   Despite flatlining prices, the company is in the midst of its “largest drilling project” to date.   Tune in as Jonathan catches listeners up to speed… breaking down the company’s recent acquisitions, drilling results, and how the company is quietly positioning itself for gold’s inevitable bounce-back.   Good Investing,   Frank Curzio   PS - Don’t leave when Jonathan signs-off. On this week’s Educational Segment, I talk about a strategy I use to get my biggest, yet safest returns… a methodology, no matter how many times I mention it, no one ever uses.   Here we go again…

Ep. 531: John Petrides: The Next Retail Takeover

Welcome to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. He's back… Managing Director at Point View Wealth Management and Wall Street Unplugged all-time favorite, John Petrides, joins the show once again. And apart from our quarterly routine, jumping from one sector to another, today we're turning all of our focus on one. Just last week, a surprisingly big acquisition took place in the retail sector; Private equity firm Sycamore bought out Staples for $10.25 per share… in a deal valued close to $7 billion. Shares of Staples, which have been on a steady decline for the past decade, finally found some life - after shares surged more than 8% in late session trading. All of which, has got John thinking... Helped along by today’s low interest rate environment, on top of a severely depressed, cheap, and hated retail sector… John’s prediction is that we’re still in the early innings of these takeover deals. On today’s show, we each give away our best guesses at which retailer is next. Including one big-box that just might be Jeff Bezos’s next lunch. You heard it here first. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

Ep. 529: Michael Alkin: The Art of Short Selling

  Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. It may look like you can't miss by going short now… Most stocks are at all-time highs… we’re seeing new records almost every week... and at this point, even perma-bulls are stuttering. The inevitable is just around the corner, right? For the past eight months short-sellers have had it increasingly rough. Just take a look at the charts. It’s obvious. Minor market pullbacks have been met with even bigger buying opportunities. And earnings along with valuations today continue to surge. Expectations… well, they’re still bullish. Simply put, if you want to short in today’s game, investors have to be more methodical than ever before. Which leads me to today’s guest - short-selling expert, Michael Alkin. Michael is a former hedge fund analyst, portfolio manager and is currently the Editor & Founder of The Stock Catalyst Report. As Michael points out, even in today’s market, some expectations are far from reality. With all the day-to-day noise we hear surrounding Wall Street, Michael breaks down some alarming, yet subtle changes particular companies are making that are going completely unnoticed… Leaving short-sellers, for those that are still alive, with a surprisingly exciting opportunity. The only hard part is -- where do you look? Tune in as Michael unveils his favorite short-selling methodology… showing listeners exactly where to find these opportunities and the all the risks that come with it. On the flip side, Michael brings up a sector he’s going “all-in” on. Frequent Wall Street Unplugged listeners have heard the same thesis over and over again from some of the smartest people in the industry. However, to end the episode, Michael brings up two catalysts listeners have yet to hear. “In my 20-plus years of my career, this is the best risk/reward ratio on the long-side I’ve ever seen.” Good Investing, Frank Curzio

Ep. 527: Frank Holmes: The "Moneyball" Gold Approach

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. This week I bring back CEO and Chief Investment Officer of U.S. Global Investors - Frank Holmes. On the show, Frank introduces listeners to yet another ETF he plans on launching at the end of this month. The timing couldn't of been better... Especially when you consider, as we'll talk about, the recent rebalancing of the GDXJ - a very popular junior mining Exchange Traded Fund that has recently caused a seismic shock through out the mining sector. Just like Frank's first ETF (NYSE: JETS), which was introduced two years ago and covers the airliner industry, this fund is being launched in the middle of an out-of-favor down cycle... Leaving the public a chance to invest in a basket of stocks with very limited down-side risk. Tune in as Frank breaks down US Global's latest venture... and how his smart data, "moneyball" approach can be an industry game-changer. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

Ep. 525: Edward Karr: What’s really moving Bitcoin?

Everyone’s talking about Bitcoin. For good reason too… If you’d bought $1,000 of Bitcoin just 7 years ago, you’d be worth $35 million right now.   I’ve received hundreds of emails on the topic. “How high can it go?… Is this gold’s replacement?… Should I buy Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency?” Bitcoin has been around less than a decade – leaving your average investor, gold-bugs, and even government regulators with the same question… “What’s really moving Bitcoin?” So on today’s show, we’re taking a look under the hood of this intriguing, yet highly speculative digital currency… I introduce Wall Street Unplugged listeners to CNBC contributor and Bitcoin expert, Edward Karr. From the basics of Bitcoin to its complexities, like the blockchain, mathematical law, and the biggest risk for investors going forward – Ed covers everything you need to know. More specifically, he explains why demand is now stronger than ever… and why recent volumes are proving to be a massive hedge against potential macroeconomic events. If you’re interested in this megatrend, don’t miss Ed’s unbiased and informative take.
