Fox Reporter Says the Trump White House Is Giving Wall Street Executives Inside Info on Tariff Negotiations
|
Fox Business senior correspondent Charles Gasparino reported on Thursday that President Donald Trump’s administration is privately discussing trade tariff deals with Wall Street executives, sharing insights on their current status, which is information not being made public otherwise.
Citing “senior Wall Street execs with ties to the White House,” Gasparino wrote on X that people within Trump’s administration have held private discussions with business leaders about an “agreement in principle with India.” He further reported that the deal could be used as a template for other trade deals the administration is working on with Japan and other countries. Markets have taken sharp hits amid uncertainty surrounding Trump’s tariffs and trade deals.

China tells US to ‘cancel all unilateral tariffs’ if it wants talks
|
On 24th April, 2025, China's Ministry of Commerce stated that the United States must cancel all unilateral tariffs if it wishes to resume trade negotiations. The announcement reflects a firm stance from Beijing amid elevated trade tensions.
Chinese officials have also denied that any current negotiations are taking place, despite recent comments from U.S. leadership suggesting progress. In addition to reiterating their demand for tariff removal, China has introduced new export restrictions and initiated cases at the World Trade Organization.
Tariffs between the two countries now reach as high as 145% on U.S. imports from China and 125% on Chinese imports from the U.S.

Now we know. It was Retail CEOS who got to Trump on Monday
|
As reported by Axios, Trump was shaken Monday after meeting with CEO’s of top retail companies like Target. They warned him that disrupted supply chains due to his China tariffs would mean empty shelves and soaring prices very soon. You can imagine how the optics of bare shelves all around the country would look.
Maybe they will get exemptions as Trump’s crony capitalism marches on but a huge number of small businesses won’t and will go under.
Somewhere Xi is smirking.

Waymo reports 250,000 paid robotaxi rides per week in U.S.
|
Alphabet reported Thursday that Waymo, its autonomous vehicle unit, is now delivering more than 250,000 paid robotaxi rides per week in the U.S.
CEO Sundar Pichai said Waymo has options in terms of “business models across geographies,” and the robotaxi company is building partnerships with ride-hailing app Uber, automakers and operations and maintenance businesses that tend to its vehicle fleets.
“We can’t possibly do it all ourselves,” said Pichai on a call with analysts for Alphabet’s first-quarter earnings.
Pichai noted that Waymo has not entirely defined its long-term business model, and there is “future optionality around personal ownership” of vehicles equipped with Waymo’s self-driving technology. The company is also exploring the ways it can scale up its operations, he said.
The 250,000 paid rides per week are up from 200,000 in February, before Waymo opened in Austin and expanded in the San Francisco Bay Area in March.
Waymo, which is part of Alphabet’s Other Bets segment, is already running its commercial, driverless ride-hailing services in the San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Austin regions.
Earlier this month, Waymo and its partner Uber, began allowing interested riders to sign up to try the robotaxi service in Atlanta when it opens this summer.
The early pioneer in self-driving technology, Waymo has managed to beat Elon Musk-led Tesla and a myriad of now-defunct autonomous vehicle startups to the U.S. market.
Tesla is promising that it will be able to turn its Model Y SUVs into robotaxis by the end of June for a driverless ride-hailing service it plans to launch in Austin.
After about a decade of promises and missed deadlines, Tesla still does not offer a vehicle that’s safe to use without a human at the wheel ready to steer or brake at all times.
Musk criticized Waymo’s approach to driverless tech on his company’s first-quarter earnings call on Tuesday. Musk said Waymo autonomous vehicles are “very expensive” and made in only “low volume.” Tesla’s partially automated driving systems rely mostly on cameras to navigate, while Waymo’s driverless systems rely on lidar technology, other sensors and cameras.
Would-be competitors to Waymo also include Amazon-owned Zoox, Mobileye, May Mobility and international autonomous vehicle companies such as WeRide and Baidu’s Apollo Go.

The real reason Trump was pushing so hard for interest rate cuts - The housing market is in trouble...
|
Just search for [housing market....](https://www.google.com/search?q=housing+market&oq=housing+ma&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqDggAEEUYJxg7GIAEGIoFMg4IABBFGCcYOxiABBiKBTIGCAEQRRhAMgYIAhBFGDkyDQgDEAAYkQIYgAQYigUyDQgEEAAYkQIYgAQYigUyBggFEEUYPDIGCAYQRRg8MgYIBxBFGDzSAQgxMTkxajBqMagCCLACAfEFho40eTWzz_M&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)
Tariffs can be turned on and off, a slowdown in the housing market can be long term destructive and takes years to correct (think 2009). Most all the larger homebuilding stocks are down. Higher interest rates will continue to put downward pressure on housing that is %16 of GDP.
Some regions will do fine. Most of the rest of the country with rising insurance rates, affordability, the slow elimination of the protections of FEMA will grind hard on the housing market and the many people who work in that industry.

Trump says China trade talks are underway, but Beijing denies any ongoing negotiations
|
U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday refuted China’s claims that there were no ongoing trade discussions between Beijing and Washington. “They had a meeting this morning ... It doesn’t matter who ‘they’ is. We may reveal it later, but they had meetings this morning, and we’ve been meeting with China,” Trump told reporters.
The statement followed China’s denial of any talks with the U.S. and calls for abolishing “unilateral” tariff measures for resolving trade issues. “At present there are absolutely no negotiations on the economy and trade between China and the U.S.,” Ministry of Commerce spokesperson He Yadong told reporters in Mandarin, translated by CNBC. He added that “all sayings” regarding progress on bilateral talks should be dismissed. “If the U.S. really wants to resolve the problem ... it should cancel all the unilateral measures on China,” He said.

China Bets Trump Will Back Down on Tariffs
|
BEIJING—President Trump’s apparent softening on tariffs against China in recent days has buoyed markets and raised hopes for a detente between the world’s two largest economies. For Chinese leaders, it only strengthens their resolve that Trump will eventually cave if they wait him out.
After weeks of spiraling hostilities, Trump now says he is willing to cut tariffs on Chinese goods. His administration is considering slashing levies in some cases by more than half in a bid to de-escalate tensions with Beijing, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

Is it going to go back to all time highs? While theres 0 deals announced, trades arent doing well, industries are struggling and Trump still hasnt contacted China? I just dont get it.

Intel CFO David Zinsner said President Donald Trump’s tariffs and retaliation from other countries has increased the likelihood of a recession.
>“The very fluid trade policies in the U.S. and beyond, as well as regulatory risks, have increased the chance of an economic slowdown, with the probability of a recession growing,” Zinsner said on the company’s quarterly earnings call on Thursday.
>Intel reported better-than-expected first-quarter results, partially because some customers stockpiled chips ahead of tariffs, the company said. However, guidance for revenue and profit was below expectations, pushing the chipmaker’s stock down more than 5% in extended trading.
>Intel’s forecast for the current quarter is $11.2 billion to $12.4 billion. Zinsner said the range is “wider than normal” due to uncertainty caused by tariffs.
Intel down -5% overnight. Looks like a gloomy outlook from the chip maker.

World’s largest sovereign wealth fund reports $40 billion loss in first quarter on tech downturn
|
Norges Bank Investment Management — the largest sovereign wealth fund in the world — on Thursday reported a first-quarter loss of 415 billion kroner ($40 billion), citing weakness in the tech sector.
“The quarter has been impacted by significant market fluctuations. Our equity investments had a negative return, largely driven by the tech sector,” CEO Nicolai Tangen said in a statement.
The fund’s value hit 18.53 trillion kroner at the end of March, with 70% of its investment placed in equities — an asset class for which it recorded a loss of 1.6%.
The fund’s market value decreased by 1.215 trillion kroner through the first quarter, largely due to adverse currency movements.
“The krone strengthened against several of the main currencies during the quarter. The currency movements contributed to a decrease in the fund’s value of -879 billion kroner,” the fund said in a statement.
The Danish currency rose by around 0.3% against the U.S. dollar in the three months ending March 31.

Meta is laying off employees in Reality Labs
|
Meta has laid off an unspecified number of employees in its Reality Labs division, a company spokesperson confirmed.
The cuts affected teams working in Oculus Studios, Meta’s in-house games division for Quest headsets, as well as some employees involved in the company’s hardware efforts, according to people familiar with the matter. Specific titles impacted by the layoffs include Supernatural, the VR fitness game that Meta acquired for over $400 million and successfully defended from a government antitrust lawsuit attempting to block the sale. A note on the official Supernatural Facebook group states that “these changes are meant to help us work more efficiently on what the future of fitness could be.”
“Some teams within Oculus Studios are undergoing shifts in structure and roles that have impacted team size,” Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton said in a statement. “These changes are meant to help Studios work more efficiently on future mixed reality experiences for our growing audience, while still delivering great content for people today. We remain committed to investing in mixed reality experiences, including fitness and games, and our drive to deliver the best experiences possible for the Quest and Supernatural communities remains unchanged.” He declined to comment on the cuts outside of Oculus Studios.
While sales of Meta’s smart glasses with Ray-Ban have grown faster than the company expected, Quest sales have continued to struggle. The latest Quest 3S, which Meta released last fall, is currently on sale for roughly 10 percent off in some configurations.

Well, that was a quick reprieve. Now Car tariffs against Canada "may go up" Dude seriously can't help himself

April 23 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump on Wednesday said a 25 percent tariff imposed on cars imported from Canada to the United States could go up.
"When I put tariffs on Canada - they're paying 25 percent - but that could go up, in terms of cars," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "All we're doing is we're saying, 'We don't want your cars, in all due respect. We want, really, to make our own cars."
Futures haven't even budged though.

Should I just keep doing what I’m doing?
|
Long story short - every Friday, I get a deposit in my investing account, and I buy broad ETFs —- QQQ, VOO, VEA etc. Note - This is outside my 401k. 401 is automated so I keep things going there without a single thought.
Should I just keep doing the same? My investment window is literally 30+ years (I’m 25 and have been doing this for 5 years so things have honestly been pretty good).
I know the answer is “Time in the market is always better than timing” but with all the uncertainty, is it almost better to sit on cash (I figure that I continue depositing money into this account) and wait for a few weeks to see what happens? Or ultimately, is this stuff just going to be a little blip by the time I’m 50-60?
All the fundamentals which I’ve learned for 5 years tell me to just stay the course but I also figure, a little bit of critical thinking + strategy ALSO doesn’t hurt — Does this make sense?
thanks!!

High duties imposed by both sides need to come down mutually before talks can begin between the two economies.
“Neither side believes that these are sustainable levels,” he said. “This is the equivalent of an embargo and a break between the two countries in trade does not suit anyone's interests.”

P&G CEO: Consumers are doing less laundry amid tariff backdrop
|
P&G shares fell 2.4% in pre-market trading.
"1Q results are likely to be rough (and tariff issues came after). Subdued demand, retail de-stocking, and higher inflation expectations will lead to 1Q misses and guidance cuts. Tariffs are a new challenge for the year. The bar was low; we're going lower," warned Jefferies analyst Kaumil Gajrawala ahead of results from consumer packaged goods companies such as P&G.

Tariff's: When “America First” Means “Jobs Last”( as Stock Market is Down 19% )
|
So, President Trump’s tariff strategy is back in full swing, and the results are... well, let’s just say the job market is experiencing a plot twist: **Stock Market is** Down **19%** since February which leads t0 :
1. **Stellantis** – Temporarily laid off **900 workers**
2. **Volvo** – Cutting **800 U.S. jobs**
3. **Cleveland Cliffs (Steel Industry)** – **1,200 workers** got the boot because tariffs on steel imports made their business model *"*
According to Goldman Sachs, while tariffs might create around 100,000 manufacturing jobs, they could also lead to the loss of approximately 500,000 jobs in other sectors.
If your investments are in manufacturing, exports, or anything that involves the word "import," now might be a great time to explore yoga. Or joining mental health counsling.
So yes, markets *technically* still function but between layoffs, production freezes, and trade diplomacy via press conference, Wall Street is just hoping someone hits “stop” before we all end up wuth this stupidty

Retail buys the dip, and the top, again!
|
This Bloomberg article succinctly describes how the smart and big investors manipulate the market by selling their stock to the retail investors like you and me, in a bear market.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-23/retail-traders-see-epic-buying-opportunity-in-s-p-s-wild-swings
"It is indeed true that the major equity benchmarks in the US rise in the long term. However, it is also true that there are windows within that trajectory where holding stocks over periods even for several years would still not let an investor break even on the initial investment. A recent example was in the dotcom bubble, when someone who bought into the S&P 500 at the top in early 2000 did not see any return until mid-2007"
This initial volatility continues for a few months, when retail investors run out of steam. That's when the real 'bear market' starts.
Anyone who's bullish right now should really, really do some more research.

Trump says reciprocal tariffs could be re-imposed within 2-3 weeks
|
The comment was from yesterday.
Has the market missed this? While this rebound has been fantastic, I noticed this small bit of news hasn’t really been mentioned.
Originally the reciprocals tariff were meant to be on hold for 90 days. Now they could return within 2 -3 weeks if there’s no deal by then.
Direct quote: “I think what's going to happen is we're going to have great deals. And by the way, if we don't have a deal with a company or a country, we're going to set the tariff," Trump said. "That will happen I’d say over the next couple of weeks."

A Very Rapid' Drop In Domestic Demand Is Hitting Airlines
|
Complement to a former post.
Any jump in airlines stock price is just dancing around for now
The Travel crisis that is emerging will affect other industries that profit from tourism, like real estate and Banks
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/very-rapid-drop-domestic-demand-182820043.html

On the international front, for majors Airlines, Chinese and other Asian international tourists are crucial to their long-haul operations. Shanghai Pudong round trip to Dallas-Fort Worth is a common route that is seing drastic decrease for AAL.
A downturn in both leisure and business tourism leads to reduced hotel occupancy rates, lower room pricing, and decreased revenue, particularly in tourist-centric cities like Las Vegas, Orlando, and New York City.
Companies/stock potentially affected: Host Hotels & Resorts Inc., Park Hotels & Resorts Inc.
Tenet Healthcare (THC) – Dallas, TX maybe affcted too. They owns hospitals and medical centers, some of which attract foreign patients for medical tourism.
Carnival Corporation (CCL) – Miami, FL, world’s largest cruise line, heavily dependent on international tourists, including Chinese travelers.
Royal Caribbean Group (RCL) – Miami, FL, same as Carnival, with an even more aggressive focus on Asia-Pacific expansion, including China-based cruise itineraries.
Many Buffalo/NY small businesses rely on Canadian spending. If revenue drop, they cant pay rent, if they cant pay rent, landlords cant service mortage debt. More businesses will close like in covid or after covid.
Lennar Corporation (LEN) – Miami, FL, one of the largest homebuilders in the U.S has lot of Chinese buyers: Florida (and Texas) have been targets for foreign real estate investment, particularly by Chinese nationals seeking EB-5 visas or U.S. property. So real estate may be affected too, in this case, may be it will relieve pressure on prices, not sure. But for REITS (real estate investment trusts) that owns properties leased to Hotels and restaurants or Malls or international student housing that depends on international travellers or Transit/transcient business, trouble are ahead in all major US Cities.
Event Spaces & Convention Centers: A reduction in MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions) activities weakens demand for event spaces and the surrounding businesses that support them. ALL major hotels brand affected.
Diversified REITs: These entities, with portfolios spanning retail, hotel, and mixed-use developments in major gateway cities, face indirect impacts from the downturn in tourism and international student presence: Vornado Realty Trust (VNO), BXP, Inc. (BXP)
The third financed asset in size for all major banks after government bonds and other bank is real estate ( commercial and residential)
also, if all foreign countries keep rejecting boeing planes delivery like china, it is the whole aerospace sector that is going down with all of the small industries and SMEs that their business model feeds.
https://fortune.com/article/boeing-ceo-trump-china-tariff-trade-war-planes-economy/
Well no wonder T is saying now: we are discussing with China, but they said: heuuu, no we are not discussing yet. remove all tariffs first, holder of negotiation power is obvious. So until all of this is fixed and factoring at least few months of starring, the crash is coming.
And we have not even talked about the soccer world cup being potentially cancelled in a year by the US, by FiFa or by implicit boycott by countries outside of Usa because not safe and impact on existing contracts with airlines, hotels and hosting cities that have spent millions
I won’t hold a high position when shorting airlines, since they are highly volatile and already close to 52 weeks low. but I will average up a short position. Should back test Covid trading range volatility to see how low it can get

Watch for SPY to surge upwards of 560, maybe even 570 within the next week... A strong gap up will be the time to buy 450 puts at least a month out.
I could be wrong, but, I want legend status if I'm right.
Overlay charts for 12/1/2017 to 1/1/2019 against 5/1/24 to 6/1/25. Note similarities. Google "~~mango~~ \- market news - foreign trade news" - for late 2018, compare with whatever you heard, I don't know, even today. Raise brows.
Clues are everywhere that this shindig ain't even close to being over. The crescendo is yet to come. Once the REAL dump has passed, resume with calls and bleating "they always go up".
OR, start stocking up on Life Straws and MREs.
Search out and watch "Field of Tendies", the masterpiece that was born from this sub. I can't find it anymore, and I miss it. Tell me where it is. If you rickroll me, I will do absolutely nothing about it.

Is anyone else trying to time calls on SPY for when news breaks that US & China have reached a trade deal? I feel like a 2%+ jump is inevitable once the news breaks, I'm curious to how far away we are. Recent news from China's foreign minister suggest they are not close. In fact, China stated they were not talking at all.
If SPY trends down tomorrow, I may look to grab cheaper 8-11DTE calls in anticipation of a bounce.

2008 Part 2, Electric Boogaloo
|
Abstract: By analyizing economic data it is clear that we are in the early stages of another financial crisis similar in scope to 2008's. The data surrounding debt and consumer savings all point to the same eventuality, that even without tariffs the economy has been held up by a string since before covid.
Introduction: While tariffs are at the forefront of everyone's conversations surrounding a possible recession, something much darker has been brewing in the background. Debt. In 2008 banks failed primarily due to Mortgage Backed Securities and Collateralized Debt Obligations failing as a result of defaults on mortgages rising. None of the people responsible ever faced any true consequences and many are still part of the financial system to this day (Scott Besset). I've been doing my own personal due diligence on the state of the economy and have come to the conclusion that no one learned their lesson. As a result, they're making the same mistakes all over again.
What banks are doing: CDO's and MBS's are extremely profitable for banks and investment firms to hold. Theyre basically large tranches of debt stacked together and sold off as a bond. After they failed in 2008 you would think that the banks would stop investing heavily into these instruments since they collapsed the world economy 17 years ago. They haven't. Speaking to a head portfolio manager at BNY I learned they're still heavily invested in these and have added in more consumer debt, credit card debt, and business loan debt called Collateralized Loan Obligations. While the manager seemed optimistic about the investments something he said stuck out to me when I asked about the rising rates of defaults.
"The Bank will be ok"
The BANK will be ok. He danced around it but admitted they were concerned over the rising rates, but the emphasis on the bank being ok made me realize, "what about everyone else?". The banks know that they will be bailed out if something happens, they were bailed out in 2008, and during covid JPOW turned the money printer on to keep things moving. They're banking on the idea that even though the bonds are known to be dangerous, the government will step in if things go south.
This is the "Too big to fail" mindset.
Debt Defaults: Everythings expensive. We went through 2 years of high inflation. While companies burned through the money they got during the covid years they are now laying off workers en masse, especially in the tech sector. This combines into people putting more and more on their credit cards due to inflation making things more expensive, then not being able to pay off those purchases since they were laid off.
This is the data from FRED
https://preview.redd.it/6516pl79nwwe1.png?width=1320&format=png&auto=webp&s=658d8292a78f506723ce5c0b8d3395ac3b227e97
While in the years following 2008 credit card defaults/deliquencies fell (sharply after covid due to stimulus and not going out and buying things), they've recently begun to rise, coinciding with inflation rising. This directly affects the CDO's and CLO's that banks are so in love with.
Consumer Savings: People aren't saving as much as they were pre pandemic, the personal savings was around 6% pre-covid, now its bouncing around 3%.
https://preview.redd.it/dxypa2ecnwwe1.png?width=1320&format=png&auto=webp&s=a602208dcd85fe32536bb6fbfb18957b42cb86cf
This leads me to believe that people have less and less money in savings, causing them to put more on credit cards.
Tangent, klarna terrifies me, putting a burrito on afterpay is dystopic.
Consumer Debt levels: Consumer debt is hitting all time highs, its not going to slow down anytime soon, there's too much money in it for banks to NOT lend to people.
https://preview.redd.it/hnsvw0bdnwwe1.png?width=1320&format=png&auto=webp&s=63f8fc29b8d04c94ae114cb0df38c7e82f588342
GDPnow Report: I know the markets are disconnected from logic at this point, but the AtlantaFed's GDPnow has been predicting negative growth since Feburary, the most recent estimate is -2.5% down from a 3.5% growth in January. I think -2.5% is a little low, but even if its off by a full 1% its still negative growth for the quarter. Proof that the economy is stagnating.
https://preview.redd.it/ultemjwenwwe1.png?width=650&format=png&auto=webp&s=858aa22df07f1078d3b602670eb746f7ab282d84
Conclusion, Im just an Econ major. My professors all share the same view, that we are in the early days of a recession. All this evidence isn't even accounting for the volatility of the current climate surrounding tariffs. I lost my job due to DOGE along with 200,000 other federal employees. Theyre paying us out until September to try and keep government spending up in hopes that it wont fuck with the GDP too much.
TLDR: Puts will print In the coming months
Heres my positions: don't make fun of them, I'm a college student, I keep all my money in Pokémon cards.

Everything about Google's earnings tonight
|
Alphabet reports first-quarter earnings after today's closing bell. They're the second earnings report among the Magnificent Seven stocks which I'll be posting about on each of their earning days. Alphabet is following Tesla, which, despite disappointing results, gained after news of Elon Musk's increased involvement in the company's operations.
So for GOOG, are we going in on calls or puts? I figured we'd at least need to be informed with what's in the know before deciding. In light of the widespread weakness among leading Big Tech companies (all of these companies have experienced higher declines than the broader US market since the beginning of the year), today's Alphabet earnings will be a significant test of how the company operates in a new environment dominated by uncertainty. I'm not only going to be interested in the financial data but I wanna see the message from the management indicating to investors whether Alphabet is navigating safely through our currently uncertain market.
**The Chart**
From a [TA perspective](https://i.imgur.com/uE3nJVz.png) a double bottom pattern may be forming on Alphabet's chart. If today's earnings results turn out to be a positive surprise and the stock price climbs above the $160.77 level, it could signal a reversal of the downward trend that has been affecting the tech giant's shares since the beginning of 2025.
**Earnings**
For Q1, it looks like the market is expecting Alphabet to report revenue of $89.1 billion (+11% y/y). From what I've read, operating income is expected to reach $28.58 billion (+12% y/y). This stronger profit growth implies a slight margin improvement to above 32.08% (+0.45 pp). Tbh, it looks like effective cost management will be one of the biggest challenges for Alphabet in this environment. While sustaining strong revenue growth seems less at risk, managing expenses (especially given capital-intensive AI development plans) will be challenging.
**Cloud Services**
For those who are aware, Google Cloud is a thing and is driving massive growth for the company. With rivals signaling a slowdown in data center expansion amid rising uncertainty, Alphabet may either follow a cautious strategy (likely dampening growth) or seize the opportunity to gain market share by acting aggressively.
The second approach would be riskier and more costly, potentially causing erosion in the segment’s operating margin. It would, however, be an investment in the better future market position.
I'm going to be watching not just the quarterly results but also the forward outlook and management’s tone regarding the Cloud business. It looks like the Forecasted Cloud segment has a revenue of $12.32 billion for Q1 2025. This would be the h[ighest quarterly result in Alphabet's history](https://i.imgur.com/9uWUntD.png). However, operating income is expected to slightly decline versus the prior quarter, but at $1.94 billion it would still be over twice the result from Q1 2024.
**Tariffs**
One of the key topics that I'll especially be closely watching tonight is the impact of tariffs and macroeconomic uncertainty on the company’s operations. Among the major Big Tech companies, Alphabet has shown the greatest resilience to potential geopolitical turmoil and has often demonstrated the fastest recovery following periods of uncertainty.
At this point, they do not appear to be in significantly better shape than its peers, with its stock down approximately 17% year-to-date, placing it squarely in the middle of the Magnificent Seven stocks.
I think the first step toward rebuilding investor confidence will be outlining the scope and impact of tariffs and overall geopolitical uncertainty on the company’s operations. As such, the types of questions I expect during today’s conference about how strongly tariffs will affect Alphabet’s business. It is worth noting that this isn’t necessarily about the direct impact (which is likely to be limited) but rather the indirect effect of uncertainty on the willingness of Alphabet’s clients to spend on advertising, which constitutes a significant portion of the company’s revenue.
**Price Targets**
Amid these earnings expectations, analysts have been revising Alphabet's price targets downward. Over the past few weeks, [several top analysts have revised their 12-month price targets for Alphabet](https://www.tipranks.com/stocks/goog/forecast?utm_source=theglobeandmail.com&utm_medium=referral). TD Cowen lowered its target from $210 to $195. UBS cut its target from $209 to $173. Even Scotiabank lowered its target from $232 to $200. Despite that, they all still rate GOOG stock as a Buy, showing they believe in its long-term value.
Guggenheim lowered its target from $215 to $190, while Jefferies adjusted its target from $235 to $200, both maintaining a Buy rating. Piper Sandler and Citi followed suit, reducing their targets to $185 and $195 respectively, citing uncertainties in the advertising landscape and macroeconomic pressures.
I mean. With all things considered, the stock is down 19% in 2025 so far. Combine that with rising legal risks (mentioned later here) and an uncertain economy, and you have a good reason to reframe expectations. Analysts aren’t necessarily predicting more downside; they’re just being more realistic about the upside, especially in the near term.
If we’re to simplify the analysts’ overall message, it’s that Alphabet’s fundamentals are strong, but the road ahead could be bumpy.
**In the news**
A federal court recently ruled that Google violated antitrust laws by monopolizing specific digital advertising markets. The court plans to determine suitable remedies soon. Some analysts believe the ruling could eventually lead to the divestiture of certain Google ad segments, though the financial impact on Alphabet is expected to be modest.
There’s also the bigger picture. Between global tariffs, economic uncertainty, and shifts in labor and costs across the tech industry, Alphabet has a lot on its plate. Investors will want to hear how the company manages expenses, hiring, and regional exposure.
**Mergers and Acquisitions**
Alphabet announced a $32 billion all-cash deal to acquire cloud security platform Wiz. This acquisition aims to enhance Google Cloud’s security capabilities and multi-cloud operations. Analysts are projecting long-term benefits from this acquisition, despite potential short-term market pressures on other cloud service providers.
Separately, Google has decided to maintain its current approach to offering third-party cookie choices in its Chrome browser, emphasizing the importance of online privacy and user control. This decision is part of Google's ongoing Privacy Sandbox initiative, which aims to strengthen online privacy while supporting a sustainable ad-driven internet environment.
**What now?**
Alphabet’s stock may be down, but most analysts still believe it’s a long-term winner. That’s why Buy ratings remain steady, even if price targets are down. Q1 earnings could be the reset moment Alphabet needs to win back momentum. I'm thinking short term puts for earnings but holding long term shares. Could even sell covered calls for earnings for some extra income, if you already have the shares. Avg price target is $204.

Andurand hedge fund is down -52% YTD. ONE OF US! Are they hiring?
|
“While it isn’t clear what led to the losses, Andurand has endured a torrid period this year with the hedge fund bleeding money every month.
Andurand trades oil, copper and other commodities, which have been whipsawed in April as Trump’s global tariff agenda threatened to wreck economic growth. Copper suffered a weekslong selloff before recouping some of the declines.
Oil prices crashed to a four-year low below $60 a barrel in London on April 9, days after Trump unveiled his tariffs and OPEC+ announced a larger-than-expected supply increase. Futures have subsequently rebounded amid signs that physical crude markets are still tight, trading near $67 a barrel on Thursday. But they still remain about 10% lower from the end of last month.
With no set risk limits, it isn’t uncommon for Andurand’s Discretionary Enhanced fund to see such swings in its returns. Over the last three years, the strategy has been through double-digit gains and losses.”

Southwest to cut flights this year, pulls guidance, citing 'macroeconomic uncertainty'. Airlines is a fixed cost industry
|
like jetblue, southwest usually relies on its canadian customer base for some destinations; not that it is very important, but small variations can make big differences. Macroeconomic uncertainties means, We don’t really know sh…t about where we are going. Well, thank you pilot! Full effect of tariffs and bullying will kick in Q3 earnings release
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/23/southwest-airlines-luv-earnings-q1-2025.html
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/very-rapid-drop-domestic-demand-182820043.html
https://sherwood.news/business/us-airlines-in-a-recession-southwest-ceo/
Airlines and Hospitality are high fixed cost Industries( the one you still incur with or without revenue); unless you are operating on a very limited service business model, Low contribution margin and high fixed cost are bad for even small variations in load factor and occupancy rates. Break even point is around 60 to 65 percent annualized load factor or occupancy rates for low cost, higher for middle to upper scale. Airlines flagship survive only because of national pride and government involvement . Also, These industries are good proxies to assess if we are in recession, the depth and if we are recovering. By all adjacent metrics ( skilled/quality mix, the one that pay high price, i.e business customers and meeting incentive conference exhibitions) and leisure customer ( low paying) we are already in recession. It will fully show in other hospitality companies, airlines and other industries in Q2 earnings. You may want to check the latest Management discussion and analysis of these companies ( and possible that they stay silent or conservative to avoid stock beating) we are going for a bumpy ride, tariffs or not tariffs unless the US customer can survive with The USA in isolation. Inflation up because of tariffs and unemployment up soon; where is monetary policy going? Stock market, for all stocks may be except nvidia, not enough sustainable catalyst to go in the middle of the 52 weeks range, overall more downside than upside. Stock are going up? sure, option cleaning, just dancing .Update after q2 and q3 earnings release..for full impact.
Overall, from the Top, a very very bigly bad chess, where the second piece moved was the king, and the king hasn’t stopped moving since in all direction, and the dragon is secretly smiling
for the redditor challenging the statement that airlines operate in mainly fixed cost industry ( you still have to pay aircraft lease, airport fees, routine maintenance and maintenance capex, air route rights, craft parking and tarmac fees, some salaries lines will stay fixed), do your due diligence, this link is for you https://www.spsairbuz.com/story/?id=964

A 'Very Rapid' Drop In Domestic Demand Is Hitting Airlines

Southwest, American and Alaska were the latest airlines to express caution about the rest of the year amid flagging demand for domestic flights.
Southwest Airlines (LUV) CEO Bob Jordan said Thursday the drop-off in business detected in February was one the most pronounced he has seen. “That is a very rapid fall-off," he said on CNBC. "It’s probably the most that I have seen absent COVID."
The carrier believes economic unease, rather than Southwest's plans to charge baggage fees or assign customers seats, has weighed on sales, Jordan said.
“A lot of that is, I think, the consumer reaction to the tariffs," he said on CNBC: "Some of that could be front-running the tariffs in terms of spending money in other locations. So it could snap back.”

China denies that any trade talks took place, contradicting the White House's statement last week that new deals are being negotiated and going well. China says all tariffs must be removed before starting talks.
|
Many people predicted this, but seems like the conversation with Chinese "officials" reported by the White House last week is being denied by Beijing. Maybe they did they did take place and this is China trying to appear to be a tough negotiator. Maybe they didn't take place and the US was just called on their bluff. Who knows.
What's interesting here is, if China makes this trade war a zero sum game - remove all tariffs, or no negotiations. What does the US respond with? If they agree, it will mean markets respond well to new talks but future negotiations maybe suffer since the US seems to be bending. If the US says no deal, then it looks like China is ready to walk away too, and markets suffer? Am I thinking about this the right way, what are your thoughts on trying to predict the outcomes and game theory of the trade war here?

Edit: This was what the US admin told reports in the Oval Office last week
"President Donald Trump said he was reluctant to continue ratcheting up tariffs on China because it could stall trade between the two countries, and **insisted Beijing had repeatedly reached out in a bid to broker a deal**. Trump, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Thursday, said officials he believed represented the Chinese leader Xi Jinping had sought to start talks."

Stock futures slip after China says trade talks haven’t even started.
|
Stock futures slipped Thursday after China said that it had no ongoing trade talks with the U.S., dashing investors’ hopes of an ease in tensions between the two nations.
“At present there are absolutely no negotiations on the economy and trade between China and the U.S.,” said Ministry of Commerce Spokesperson He Yadong.

Discussion: Trump seems to be softening up on the tariff nonsense. Will he stick with this more intelligible(relatively speaking) stance on tariffs?
|
We know it was a ruse just so he can have his buddies buy at the bottom, but have his boys had their fill? Will he continue with this softer stance on tariffs to continue the trend upwards?
In the interview today he stated that he blames Biden, and not any other country for the deals that were made. Sounds like he's reversing his stance and putting his tail between his legs and saying things that are at least not as aggressive to other nations.
The market seems to be continuing its green streak in hopes of Trump maintaining this relatively softer, more sensible stance, whether or not any discussion has actually taken place.

Will index funds truly increase forever?
|
I know everyone says to invest and buy in index funds like VTI and VOO, but will they truly go up forever? Currently VTI is around 269 a share, should we expect it to be around 2000 in like 40 years. I’m currently 24, just started investing. Have like a 90-10 VTI-VXUS allocation currently, with 25,800 invested in. I’m just skeptical as per how they can truly keep increasing forever. Would love to hear yall intake on this. What can we expect the price to be in around 40 years?

Investor CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT
|
CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT
(Brought symbolically on behalf of all global investors harmed by the 2025 tariff shock triggered under false national security claims)
---
Plaintiff:
An Anonymous Retail Investor, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated
v.
Defendants:
Donald J. Trump, President of the United States (2025)
The United States of America
Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR)
United States Department of Commerce
And all responsible officials and agencies behind the 2025 Global Tariff Measures
---
NATURE OF THE CASE
This symbolic class action is submitted on behalf of global investors — retail traders, retirees, institutional funds, and economic participants — who experienced devastating financial harm following the 2025 global tariff escalation ordered by President Donald J. Trump.
These tariffs were imposed with little notice, no international coordination, and justified through a clearly disingenuous invocation of "national security." There was no war. No embargo. No emergent threat. Only an executive maneuver designed to manipulate global supply chains, appease protectionist lobbies, and stir political sentiment.
Markets responded immediately — and violently. Global indices tumbled, sentiment collapsed, and unprotected portfolios were liquidated in hours. Retail investors bore the brunt.
This is not a lawsuit. This is a symbolic declaration of harm — a warning about the consequences of authoritarian trade policy dressed up as patriotism, and the absence of protection for ordinary global investors in the face of weaponized economic policy.
---
THE CLASS
All individuals and legal entities who:
Held investment positions in global markets at the time of the 2025 tariff announcements
Incurred direct financial losses from the market fallout resulting from said announcements
Were not in positions of political or insider advantage
Had no legal pathway to challenge or hedge against sudden, sweeping, politically motivated economic policy changes
Include global participants in equities, ETFs, options, derivatives, and funded trading accounts
---
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
1. In April 2025, President Donald J. Trump announced a sweeping new package of global tariffs targeting key sectors including electronics, foodstuffs, industrial machinery, autos, and consumer goods.
2. The justification offered was “national economic security,” echoing Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act — yet no credible threat analysis was presented, nor was any legitimate emergency declared.
3. These measures were aimed more at energizing a political base than defending any actual national interest.
4. Markets reacted instantly. Global indices dropped. Sector-based ETFs collapsed. Margin calls and liquidations rippled across platforms.
5. Millions of retail investors — with no institutional defense — were wiped out in hours, victims of volatility they neither caused nor consented to.
6. The “national security” claim was a false pretext — an abuse of executive economic powers for political spectacle, not sovereign necessity.
---
CAUSES FOR CONCERN (Symbolic Legal Theories)
Executive Overreach with Global Consequences
Negligent Disregard for Investor Impact
False Invocation of Emergency Powers
Market Disruption through Political Ego
Systemic Disempowerment of Retail and Non-U.S. Investors
---
PRAYER FOR RELIEF (Symbolic)
The symbolic class respectfully demands:
A public reckoning over the abuse of emergency trade mechanisms
Global scrutiny over how economic power is wielded by leaders with political motives
Acknowledgment of investor harm and systemic exposure
Development of international protocols to mitigate retaliatory market chaos
A serious conversation about the unchecked economic authority of a single office to upend global wealth with a press release
---
CONCLUSION & CALL TO ACTION
This is not a lawsuit — it is a symbolic charge sheet for an act of economic vandalism disguised as governance.
Let the record show:
This harm was not accidental. It was not unpredictable. It was foreseeable, avoidable, and carried out in plain view under a false banner of security.
If you were affected — or believe in the principle that financial systems should not be tools of political theater — then join this signal. Share it. Echo it. Add your voice.
Let this symbolic complaint become a marker of resistance — and a caution for what comes next.
End of Symbolic Complaint
First Published: April 23, 2025

Gold stocks hitting $3,300/oz
|
Back in early January, I saw a note saying gold might finally have its moment in 2025. At the time, gold was around $2,600 an ounce, and most people were still focused on tech and AI stocks. Honestly, I didn’t think much of it.
Now it’s April, and gold just crossed $3,330. That’s a 27% jump in four months. And suddenly, fund managers are calling gold the most crowded trade on Wall Street beating out tech for the first time in two years.
A lot happened, Inflation hasn’t cooled down as much as people hoped. There’s still a ton of uncertainty around interest rates. And global tensions whether it’s Ukraine, the Middle East, or China have pushed a lot of people toward what they see as “safer” investments.
Instead of buying physical gold or a gold ETF, I started looking into gold mining companies. The basic idea is this: when gold prices go up, mining profits usually go up even faster. That’s because their costs stay fairly flat while the value of what they’re digging up increases. So you get more upside though more risk too.
According to my research there are three types of gold stocks I’ve been looking at:
1. Major producers — big mining companies with steady operations.
2. Junior miners — smaller companies that might hit it big with a new discovery, but come with more risk.
3. Streaming companies — these guys don’t mine gold themselves. They give money to miners upfront and get a portion of the gold in return. Less risk, but less reward too.
Here's what I've been tracking:
Wheaton Precious Metals (WPM)
This one is a streaming company, so it doesn’t operate mines—it collects a share of gold from others. It’s a lower-risk model and still benefits from rising gold prices. Production is up, and they’re projecting long-term growth. The stock’s up over 50%.
Agnico Eagle (AEM)
Solid company with operations in Canada, Australia, and a few other places. They’ve been steadily growing reserves and investing in new exploration projects. Up nearly 90% this year.
Kinross Gold (KGC)
It’s up over 120% so far this year. They’ve been selling off riskier assets and doubling down on stable regions like the U.S., Canada, and Brazil. They’re also using AI and automation to cut costs. It’s starting to pay off.
Gold stocks have clearly run up. Valuations on some names especially the streaming companies are looking expensive. But at the same time, demand is still strong, and a lot of people see gold as a safe bet if things get worse economically or politically.
Would it be safer to just buy a gold ETF instead? Something like GLD or IAU?

Opinion.... sell my rental and just invest in the market for the next 20 years
|
I own a rental in ontario that I owe $400,000 on at %4.2. After everything it cash flows approx $300 a month.. problem is I took out a $120,000 mortgage against my primary residence 6 years ago to fund the down-payment on the rental as well as some upgrades at time of purchase. This costs me $750 in mortgage payments per month. I also wnd up paying approx 3,000 per year in income taxes because of the rental. Does it make sense to just sell and invest the approx $8400 ((750-300) x 12 + 3000) per year in the market for the next 20 or just ride out and take the loss knowing that I'm building equity in the rental?
Thanks for reading

What would you invest $1000 into

Hi, I'm 27 and a bit late to the game. I don’t have any investments yet, but I do make enough to invest $1,000 a month consistently. What’s the best way to invest it so I can retire faster? My first step would be to max out my Roth IRA, and I believe I can link it to an ETF. I'd really appreciate any investing advice you might have.

What’s your strategy on selling stocks?
|
Hi guys, I was wondering when you decide when to sell a stock in your portfolio
I’m asking because there are times where my stocks are in the green and I’m not sure whether to sell or keep holding. Obviously I like to take profits but sometimes I fear I’ll miss out on bigger returns.
So do guys you sell when you need the cash? Or when you’ve held the stock for over a year? Or you guys just hold until you realize the stock is not going anywhere?

Where to park $25K in current market wackiness?

Trying to keep it within 1 week or maybe 1 month liquidity for availability as a rainy day fund. Willing to expose 1/2 to volatility but the other half should be safe.
Ideally a single set-it-and-forget-it HYSA, but I'm a mere peasant and not aware of an institution that offers accounts with decent ratesfor that much. Maybe 5 x 5K HYSAs @ 4.5% each?

Where / how should should I move around my savings to keep my timeline in check.
|
Brief breakdown of my salary/expenses/age:
Age: 26
Salary: 100k net pre bonus circa 120-130k net post (anticipated growth in the future)
Savings: 230k
Monthly expenses: rent 500$ (I live at home still, VHCOL country rent would be circa 3.5k should I move out same price if not more expensive than mortgage)
Gym: 125$ phone: 185$ parking spot: 125$ Apple TV/Music: $20 Bar/Food/All other: 1.5k-2k
Typically save circa: 5.5-6k a month
My timeline for purchasing a condo/home would be in the next four years, so I’m unsure what I should do in regards of savings. In theory yes I should park it in a HYSA and begin investing but I also do not want to lose my banking relationship / perks which requires I maintain 200k+ in the account. That being said I do already have the down payment for a home and in the next four years will likely save an additional 350k should no unexpected expenses arise, assuming I move out for a year or two factoring in salary increases let’s just assume this would be 250k-300k.
I’m in a cross roads of if I should a) dump 100k into VOO, rebuild my savings back to a down payment level. Once achieved then invest 60% every month, 20% into savings and 20% into expenses.
Hopefully enough context, and look forward to your thoughts and opinions.

BRKB vs. VTI. BRKB & chill?
|
Im looking into parking a chunk of change into both of these and I looked up 5 year returns and BRKB blows VTI out. 185% vs. 90%. BRKB also seems more recession proof than VTI or VOO.
What am I missing here? Why don’t more people say BRKB and chill?
Is there something inherently more risky about BRKB? Their holdings seem very safe to me but I’m not an advanced investor. Would you feel comfortable putting the majority of your portfolio in it?

Mr Market Where are you? on FLGT?
|
I don’t usually post investment ideas publicly, but as someone who thinks statistically (maybe obsessively so), I’ve been wrestling with an interesting case: Fulgent Genetics (FLGT).
It’s trading under $20, despite holding around $25 per share in cash (what? I can’t get over this, plus really high revenue per share plus upside from development pipeline in both dna diagnostics testing and in early phase pharmaceuticals). From my analysis, at a minimum, I keep coming back to $32 per share as fair value right now for revenue not counting upside potential, up to $42 per share based on their latest financial postings.
I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit analyzing this stock. It’s kind of embarrassing, actually—like, even if I’m binge-watching Netflix, part of my brain is still secretly running valuation scenarios 😂
Seriously, though, I’ve thought extensively about this, especially through a Kurzweilian lens on how AI-driven technology will likely reshape biotech (I’m thinking that starts with testing, where pattern detection is critical, and AI is good at).
I genuinely think it’s very grossly undervalued and that time will tell. Markets are supposed to make sense and this doesn’t make sense! “Mr. Market where are you?”, even though I could certainly be wrong, I have a lot of theories as to why this is undervalued that I don’t wanna mention because I don’t want to bias anyone. I’d love to hear other perspectives on why the market might be overlooking this, if anyone wouldn’t mind giving it a go.
(Full disclosure: I’ve been buying shares periodically over the past year, so take my enthusiasm with a grain of salt)

As the title says, our monthly expenses are around4500-$5000 with mortgage and HOA is $1800/month. We owe $263k with 2.75% and have 25 years remaining to pay off. That’s the only debt we have. Our net income is $6400 without our investment income which is $1200 from our treasury. I didn’t touch our investment income and kept reinvesting. If we pay extra $600 a month, we can pay off our mortgage in 10 years earlier . Should we pay extra $600 or invest and saved that $600. We have $350k in treasury and $165k in 401k. We also have $700k equity in our home and owned 3 cars outright 2024 Tesla Y and 2016 Infiniti qx60 plus 2013 Camry.

Will DRIP from my Roth IRA trigger a wash sale?
|
I'm having a bit of trouble fully understanding wash sale rules as it relates to tax loss harvesting, especially the 30 days back part.
On March 28, my Roth IRA got dividends from SCHD and purchased shares using the dividend payment.
In my taxable, I have DRIP turned off for SCHD and the last shares I bought were from December 2024. If I choose to sell my taxable shares of SCHD to tax loss harvest, will I trigger a wash sale since my Roth IRA had purchased shares via DRIP since it bought shares (03/28) 30 days before my intended sell date in my taxable (4/24). I don't intend to buy any more shares of SCHD except what comes as DRIP in my Roth IRA which shouldn't be til end of Q2.
The examples I found on Google don't match my situation and the more I read, the more confused I get. Thank you in advance!

Tesla reports 20% Q1 drop in auto revenue
|
Brutal numbers from Tesla after the bell.
As we all know, their stock performance is often decoupled from results. Little movement in futures so far, but curious how it’ll move tomorrow.
Total revenue slid 9% from $21.3 billion a year earlier. Automotive revenue dropped 20% to $14 billion from $17.4 billion in the same period last year.
Tesla said one reason for the decline was the need to update lines at its four vehicle factories to start making a refreshed version of its popular Model Y SUV. The company also pointed to lower average selling prices and sales incentives as a drag on revenue and profit.
Net income plummeted 71% to $409 million, or 12 cents a share, from $1.39 billion or 41 cents a year ago.
…
The company refrained from promising growth this year and said it will “revisit our 2025 guidance in our Q2 update.”
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/22/tesla-tsla-earnings-report-q1-2025.html
ETA: it’s now up a staggering 3% after delivering that terrible news - they must be into the vaporware portion of the call.

Sovereign treasuries... BWX, BNDX, IGOV
|
This is a popular question now -- how to hedge against the possible devaluation of the dollar compared to other currencies.
Rather than literally buy (say) Swiss Francs or a Swiss Franc ETF, buying the foreign equivalent of treasuries may make sense -- as a way to get interest.
The ones I've found out about so far are:
BWX - not hedged
BNDX - Vanguard, hedged
**IGOV**: NASDAQ
I welcome opinions about them and alternatives. I am a little surprised there is a Swiss Franc EFT, but so far I have not found a country-specific foreign treasuries (the treasuries of just one country).

$4.5K Gold? Commodity Experts Weigh In—NexGold Positioned for Breakout [INTERVIEW SUMMARY]
|
$4.5K Gold? Commodity Experts Weigh In—NexGold Positioned for Breakout \[INTERVIEW SUMMARY\]
The gold market is heating up—with analysts forecasting gold to reach $4,500–$5,000. As macro volatility deepens and silver prepares to catch up, attention is turning to near-term producers with strong fundamentals. In a recent conversation on the Feneck Commodities Report, John Feneck and Don Durrett spoke with NexGold Mining CEO Kevin Bullock to discuss the company’s potential as a high-leverage, low-risk gold investment.
📍 Key Takeaways on NexGold Mining (TSXV: NEXG | OTCQX: NXGCF):
🟡 Two Advanced-Stage Canadian Gold Projects
\* Goliath Gold Complex (Ontario) and Goldboro (Nova Scotia) each have:
\* Environmental permits in place
\* Feasibility studies in progress (Goliath: mid-2025; Goldboro: late 2025)
\* Combined 6.5M oz in resources and 1.3M oz in reserves
\* NPVs over C$1B each at current spot gold prices
🟡 Construction-Ready by 2026
\* Final investment decisions targeted by end of 2025
\* Construction to follow in sequence—100,000 oz/year at each project
\* Development strategy allows ramp-up to 250,000–300,000 oz/year within five years
🟡 Financial Strength & Insider Alignment
\* Fully funded to construction decision
\* Over 50% insider/institutional ownership (Frank Giustra, Sprott, Extract Capital)
\* Management invested $1.2M in the latest financing round
🟡 Strategic Value in an Elite Jurisdiction
\* Located in Canada with strong First Nations partnerships
\* Permitting and governmental support accelerating under pro-mining policies
\* Low all-in sustaining costs (AISC), targeting \~US$1,100/oz
🟡 Compelling Valuation
\* Current market cap: \~C$120M
\* Forecast free cash flow: C$30–40M/year at US$2,600 gold
\* Potential 10–20x return at higher gold prices ($3,500–$4,500)
\* Compared favorably to peers like Skeena and West Red Lake Gold
🟡 CEO Perspective – Kevin Bullock:
“At a C$200M market cap and a C$500M NPV from one asset alone, we’re one of the few juniors with two fully permitted, construction-ready assets in a G7 country. With strategic backers, a top-tier team, and two billion-dollar projects, NexGold is a rare opportunity.”
Investor Note: NexGold is participating in upcoming U.S. mining investment conferences (including Feneck’s boutique investor events), as momentum builds around the gold sector’s next big wave.

Earlier in the month they partnered with HPE Private Cloud which is co-developed by NVIDIA
The Stock has received multiple $6+ price targets from wall street analysts.
They won a $66M lawsuit award from Cisco and this will hit their balance sheet any time now which is yet another catalyst. (info is on their latest 10-k filing)
The company has a great balance sheet and their net loss for Q4 was due to around $6M in Acquisition costs/fees and They did sell off their un profitable legacy assets and completed the newtwek acquisition.
The company has 38.7 months of cash left based on quarterly cash burn of -$0.75M and estimated current cash of $9.7M. Zero long term debt with $16m in assets compared to only $4m in liabilities.
The CEO stated they are actively seeking mergers / acquisitions.
Vanguard owns around 3% of the company which is pretty big and the company has zero dilution filings. The total outstanding share count has went down since 2021.
The chart looks great and bottomed out. I think it is definitely worth looking into. Expecting news soon too. On the last earnings call the CEO sounded very optimistic about the new sector they are targeting.
New contracts should be coming soon because they partnered with $NEWT ($250M company) this month which has 100K+ businesses as customers and will be referring them to $IPM. $NEWT is their biggest customer as well and the same company they bought the NTS business from. I will be swinging this for a while and think it will explode when we get news which will be any day now.

Why I think LXRX will be bought out
|
I have been going back and forth on this for weeks now, but recently came across an addition to the 10K that was made effective on March 4th, 2025. That has pushed me from uncertain, to fairly convinced (at least enough to share this) that LXRX is in negotiations for a buyout.
This is a list of things that have been pointing to an M&A in my view, with the recent discovery included and linked at the bottom:
* New CEO in July, 2024
* ‘Strategic repositioning’ in August 2024, with a roughly 50% reduction in headcount following the failed marketing launch of their lead drug, Inpefa
* Licensing of Inpefa to Ex US, Ex EU markets only
* COO stepped down and nobody new has been appointed
* New CFO in January who has processed M&As before
* Apparent disinterest in their lead asset, Inpefa, while news articles have been cheering its potential
* Management severance plan: A fairly generous golden parachute, was adopted and put into effect on the 4th of March, 2025.
* Deal for Exclusive licensing rights with NVO for their least developed drug, which is M&A neutral in my opinion, however they used the $45 million upfront to immediately pay down debt- Cleaning up their balance sheet
There are other things, like lack of insider open market buys and sells, m&a rumours, otm options contracts, recent fda appeals, and the like that could add extra support to the case, but these aren't as definitive in my opinion as the ones listed above.
Run it through your favorite AI and see what it see what it says about these breadcrumbs
**Disclosure. I am long stock and options on the ticker**
Link to golden parachute in 10K: Crtl+f and search “march 4”

Don't Sleep on Damon (DMN)
|
This two-wheel electric vehicle company could make for a quick return. Currently, the stock price sits at $0.0035 (as I type this), but they have $100 million in pre-orders for their two motorcycle models, which include safety and accessibility tech you'd find in newer four-wheel vehicles. They're also big on data intelligence, and are open to working with other companies to share info, such as supporting ICE (internal combustion engine) companies to transition. They presented at the Planet MicroCap Showcase just yesterday, which is available online: [https://event.summitcast.com/view/YNz6mnmEsXyrdRxb78w2nX/9WosXgUD44wqvJunNd982Y](https://event.summitcast.com/view/YNz6mnmEsXyrdRxb78w2nX/9WosXgUD44wqvJunNd982Y) (Or just Google it if you don't trust links.) Among other things, they state the global market for electric bikes is forecasted to reach $40 billion by 2030. While the US may have an administration trying to move in the opposite direction of electrification, the world thinks otherwise!

Warrants—USARW, CRMLW
|
I am a newbie to investing and trading, and I’m very interested in materials mining companies, specifically rare earths. Today I was noticing USAR and CRML have warrant stocks (USARW and CRMLW, respectively).
If I want to buy USARW through my brokerage account, how do I figure out the conversion ratio to common stock? And how would I go about converting it in the future if the common stock goes up?

BURU: The Tiny Laser Company With a Massive Pivot Toward Defense – Potential 10x Play?
|
Been watching Nuburu (BURU) quietly make some strategic moves—here’s what’s up:
• Pivoting hard into defense + AI-integrated robotics
• Targeting $50M+ in revenue in 2025 from new Defense & Security Hub
• Zero long-term debt now and resolving liabilities with a strategic partner
• Just formed a key AI partnership with COEPTIS NexGenAI
Current market cap is ~$8M and stock is chilling near all-time lows (~$0.15).
They were trading at $15.60 just last year.
Yes, it’s a risk. But with the defense angle + AI tie-in, this could get hot fast.
Anyone else watching BURU?

The Smart Money is Already here, Forge Resources Corporation (CSE: $FRG)
|
ATTENTION degens and miners! If you’re hunting for a junior mining stock that’s got it all, killer leadership, strategic backers, world class properties, and infrastructure ready to roll, then Forge Resources Corp. (CSE: $FRG) is your play.
I bought in around 68 cents, and I’m riding this one hard. This one is HUGE. Let me spell out why it’s a no brainer for anyone looking to crush it in the junior mining game.
**Leadership? Legends.**
Forge’s leadership isn’t just experienced, they’re fully strapped in with us. CEO PJ Murphy, with over 25 years of management experience, holds 4.5 million shares. Add in Lorne Warner, a geology vet with 30+ years in mining, and Cole McClay, who’s got a decade of senior management under his belt. These guys aren’t just collecting paychecks, they’ve got millions of shares on the line, and you don’t just buy 7 figures worth of shares if you’re not damn sure your project’s got legs. When management has this much skin in the game, you know they’re in it for the win.
**Shareholder Structure with some Serious Backing**
Then you’ve got this fella named Ralf Holdger Schmidtke, funny name. He holds a fat stack of 9.6 million shares, reloading every week like its muscle memory. Track this guys buying, he doesn't fuck around. Another insider like Tyrone McClay with 1.6 million shares, Forge has the backing to push forward. This isn’t really just a mom and pop operation, it’s got serious players behind it.
**Quick Lingo for the New Guys**
Not fluent in mining yet? No problem. Here’s some terms you should know
* **Porphyry Deposit**: Big ass low grade mineral deposits typically stacked with copper, gold, and molybdenum.
* **Copper-Gold-Molybdenum**: AKA the golden trio. The primary metals found in porphyry deposits, which are copper, gold, and molybdenum.
* **Unglaciated**: Fancy word for “not wiped out by glaciers” aka, the rocks are untouched and ripe for exploration.
* **Coking vs. Thermal Coal**: Thermal = energy grid. Coking = steel mills. Both = cash flow.
**The Properties**
Forge’s got two standout assets:
1. **Alotta Project (Yukon, Canada)**
* **Location**: Right in the thick of it, 40 km southeast of the Casino deposit, one of the largest undeveloped gold monsters on the planet.
* **Exploration Potential**: The latest drilling hit additional porphyry mineralization at the Payoff and Severance zones, showing solid copper, gold, and moly grades. Forge just expanded its land package around the Alotta porphyry by 55%. That’s confidence.
* **Recent Developments**: In 2024, Forge knocked out a 1,815 meter drill program and confirmed a legit porphyry system. Now they’re gearing up for a 4,000 meter campaign in 2025, 12 deep holes, all stepping out from targets they already nailed. Given where this is located? Yeah… I’m betting those results are going to be astronomical.
* **Strategic Position**: Situated in a proven mining belt with roads and power coming down the pipeline. It’s right next to the Casino property, which means lower future costs and a whole lot of upside.
1. **La Estrella Coal Project (Colombia)**: Permitted and ready, the kind of project that can fund the bigger plays while keeping the lights on.
* **Location**: La Estrella is a fully permitted coking and thermal coal project located in Santander, Colombia. Forge holds a 60% interest in Aion Mining Corp., which is developing this project.
* **Project Status**: Eight known coal seams, underground works already underway, and the project is fully permitted. In mining, that’s basically everything you want to hear.
* **Recent Developments**: Underground work is in motion. Bulk sample program of 20,000 tonnes locked and loaded. Revenue’s not some distant maybe, it’s on deck. They’ve also brought in a new mine manager and a senior mining engineer, both veterans in the coal game. Forge is building a squad that knows how to extract value without wasting time.
**Why I’m All In**
Let it be known, junior mining is a high stakes poker table. But Forge? I think they’re sitting on the other side with a God damn royal flush in their hand.
* **Leadership**: A team with decades of experience and millions of shares on the line. They aren’t fucking around, they believe in their company, not their stock.
* **Shareholders**: Big players stacking their positions week after week. Tens of thousands of shares.
* **Projects**: One’s a porphyry jackpot in Yukon, the other’s a near term cash printing machine in Colombia.
* **Infrastructure**: The Colombian project is ready to roll, everything’s permitted, and development is happening now. Yukon? Strategic as fuck, bordering one of the biggest gold deposits in the world, and plans are in place for roads and connections
With gold at $3,400/oz and copper holding strong, the macro tailwinds are ridiculous. Forge is sitting in the sweet spot, high upside on the exploration side and near term revenue potential to bankroll the bigger moves.
Legally I should probably say this is a “high risk, high reward” play. But if I’m being honest? I’ve seen way worse setups with half the firepower. This one feels low risk with monster potential, but hey, that’s just me and my 68 cent entry talking.
**Final Thoughts**
If you’re looking for a junior miner with all the ingredients lined up, I think this is it. The leadership’s dialed in. The shareholders are stacked. The projects are real, and the infrastructure isn’t a pipe dream, it’s literally in motion.
The banks love this one too, lots of strong bids from institutions. As of posting today, April 24th, 2025, BMO Nesbitt placed a 1,000,000 share bid. Huge.
I’m in, because I see where this is going. Doesn’t mean you should ape in blind (though, I admit perhaps occasionally I do exactly that), do your research, set your stop losses, and don’t gamble more than you can stomach losing. But if you’ve got the stones to play the high upside game?
Forge **might** just be your ticket to the big leagues.

The Psychology of Penny Stock Trading
|
Whattup degens! I've made a post on [penny stock basics](https://www.reddit.com/r/pennystocks/comments/1jgq25r/penny_stocks_for_dummies/), so I think it would be good to talk about some psychological warfare next. If you’re diving into penny stocks, you better get your head straight because trading is as much about your brain as it is about the charts. Let’s talk about the psychology of penny stock trading, how to keep your emotions in check and avoid the dumb mistakes that wipe out portfolios.
**Emotional Landmines**
First off, let’s talk about the big emotional biases that can screw you over:
* **Loss Aversion**: You hate losing more than you love winning. So, you might hold onto a losing penny stock, hoping it’ll bounce back, instead of cutting your losses. That’s a quick way to turn a small loss into a big one. Take your profits when the market gods let you, if they don't, cut your loss.
* **Overconfidence**: You think you’re the next Warren Buffett after a couple of lucky trades. I don't care if you're Warren Buffet or Jimmy Buffet, nobody knows if the stock's gonna go up, down, sideways, or in fuckin circles. But overconfidence can make you ignore risks and overtrade, chasing every hot tip without doing your homework.
* **Self Control Issues**: Penny stocks can be addictive. The thrill of a quick win can make you trade too much, racking up fees and chasing pumps that inevitably dump.
* **FOMO**: You see a stock up 300% and your ape brain screams “Get in!” That’s how you end up holding the bag while the insiders sip margaritas and espresso martinis on your dime.
**How to Keep Your Cool**
So, how do you not let your emotions run wild? First off, probably see a shrink, second off, do these;
* **Set Realistic Goals**: Don’t expect to turn $1,000 into $10,000 overnight. Penny stocks are risky, and most don’t pan out. Could they hit a 10x? Absolutely, but don't expect that EVER, set achievable targets and stick to them.
* **Have a Trading Plan**: Write down your strategy, including when to buy, sell, and cut losses. Stick to it like it’s your Bible. Emotions love to mess with unplanned trades.
* **Learn from Your Mistakes**: After every trade, review what went right and wrong. Did you let fear keep you out of a good trade? Did greed make you hold too long? Learn and move on, wax on wax off.
**Common Mistakes to Avoid**
Here are some classic blunders that can kill your account:
* **Chasing Losses**: You lost on a trade, so you double down to “get even.” Bad idea. Cut your losses and live to trade another day. Trying to outsmart the market without a plan is like playing chess against Magnus Carlsen. While blindfolded. With a checkers board.
* **Ignoring Stop Losses**: You set a stop loss but ignore it when the stock dips. We've all done it, but don’t be that guy. Stops are there for a reason... to protect your capital.
* **Overtrading**: Trading too much is like playing roulette. Each trade has costs, and the more you trade, the more you’re gambling. Quality over quantity.
**The Market Psychology Cycle**
Markets move in cycles, and so do your emotions. Think of a woman's time of month. However dissimilarly, man can understand stock cycles! This can help you stay sane:
* **Optimism**: Everything’s great, stocks are rising, you’re a genius.
* **Anxiety**: Things start to wobble, but you think it’s just a dip.
* **Denial**: The market’s tanking, but you’re sure it’ll come back.
* **Capitulation**: You finally sell, probably at the bottom.
* **Despair**: You’re out, and the market starts recovering without you.
Recognizing where you are in this cycle can help you make better decisions instead of reacting emotionally. Those who indulge themselves in junior mining (why?), its a similar idea to the Lassonde Curve.
Penny stock trading is a mental game as much as it is a financial one. Keep your emotions in check, stick to your plan, and learn from your mistakes. Don’t let fear, greed, or overconfidence dictate your trades. Stay disciplined, and you might just get a 10-bagger bite on your line.
Remember though, even the best traders lose sometimes. It’s how you handle those losses that sets you apart. So, keep your head screwed on right, and happy trading!

Katapult Holdings: FAQ for Getting Payment on the $2.5M Investor Settlement
|
Hey guys, I posted about this settlement recently, but since they’re still accepting late claims, I decided to share it again with a little FAQ.
If you don’t remember, in 2020, after merging with FinServ, Katapult was accused of hiding declining sales. Despite the claims of growth opportunities, a month after the merger, they reported an $8.1 million net loss. Following this, $KPLT fell 56%, and Katapult faced a lawsuit from investors.
The good news is that $KPLT settled $2.5M with investors, and they’re accepting late claims.
So here is a little FAQ for this settlement:
Q. Who can claim this settlement?
A. Anyone who purchased or otherwise acquired $KPLT from June 15, 2021, to August 09, 2021.
Q. Do I need to sell/lose my shares to get this settlement?
A. No, if you have purchased $KPLT during the class period, you are eligible to participate.
Q. How much money do I get per share?
A. The final payout amount depends on your specific trades and the number of investors participating in the settlement.
If 100% of investors file their claims - the average payout will be $0.09 per share. Although typically only 25% of investors file claims, in this case, the average recovery will be $0.36 per share.
Q. How long does the payout process take?
A. It typically takes 8 to 12 months after the claim deadline for payouts to be processed, depending on the court and settlement administration.
You can check if you are eligible and file a claim here: [https://11th.com/cases/katapult-investor-suit](https://11th.com/cases/katapult-investor-suit)

$NB - NioCorp: Unlocking U.S. Critical Minerals - 20x Potential 🚀
|
NioCorp Developments ($NB) controls the **only permitted niobium-scandium-titanium deposit in the United States**. The 2022 feasibility study pegs the Elk Creek project at an **after-tax NPV of US $2.35 billion** versus a sub-US $120 million market cap today - a >20× valuation gap. Financing due-diligence is underway (EXIM Bank review of up to US $800 million) and fresh drilling is upgrading reserves. If capital comes through, NB flips from optionality play to the first U.S. producer of these critical minerals.
# 1. Near-term catalysts
|Date / Stage|Why it matters|
|:-|:-|
|**Apr ’25** – 9-hole infill drilling|Converts Indicated ➜ Measured, derisking before lenders sign.|
|**Apr 29 ’25** – Company webcast|Management to outline financing timeline.|
|**EXIM Bank TRC-2 review (ongoing)**|Up to **US $800 M** low-rate debt could cover \~70 % of CAPEX.|
|**US $20.8 M equity raise (Apr ’25)**|Funds drilling + FS update without toxic converts.|
# 2. Macro tail-winds
* **Supply squeeze:** 95 % of world niobium comes from one Brazilian complex. Washington wants redundancy.
* **Demand ramp:** Niobium demand CAGR \~10 % (2024-29) on HSLA steel, EV battery anodes, superconductors.
* **Policy muscle:** IRA, CHIPS and DoD Title III offer tax credits, loan guarantees and priority offtakes for U.S. critical-mineral projects.
* **China export controls:** Fresh REE / scandium restrictions amplify U.S. urgency for domestic supply.
# 3. Valuation math (back-of-napkin)
* After-tax NPV (US $2.35 B) / 41 M shares -> **≈ US $57 per share** vs. \~US $2.6 today.
* Haircut NPV by 60 % for financing & execution risk: fair value still >US $23 -> **\~9× upside**.
# 4. Risks to watch
1. **Financing risk** \- Elk Creek only happens if debt + offtake packages close.
2. **Dilution** \- More equity likely before final investment decision.
3. **Commodity prices** \- Niobium & scandium trade thinly; price swings can hammer cash flow.
4. **Execution** \- Underground mine + hydromet plant are complex; delays kill IRR.
# Bottom line
If you bet that Washington will bankroll a domestic critical-minerals supply chain - and you can stomach mining-sector volatility - $NB offers asymmetric upside: tiny market cap, world-class orebody, a clear (if fragile) path to funding. **I’m loading while the market prices Elk Creek like it’ll never be built.**

Supernova Metals (SUPR): From Lithium Explorer to Offshore Oil Contender?
|
Supernova Metals (CSE: SUPR | OTC: SUPRF) is a Canadian-based exploration company evolving beyond its roots in lithium and silver. Now, it’s making headlines for its venture into Namibia’s Orange Basin—one of the hottest emerging oil frontiers globally. With significant discoveries nearby by Shell and TotalEnergies, Supernova’s latest moves are putting it back on speculators’ radars.
**Recent Developments**
**Stake in Namibia’s Orange Basin**
Supernova has secured an **8.75% indirect working interest** in Block 2712A, a massive 5,484 km² offshore license in Namibia’s Orange Basin. This region is no stranger to attention—recent discoveries by Shell (Graff, La Rona) and TotalEnergies (Venus) have transformed it into a focal point for oil majors. Any success here could represent a transformational moment for SUPR.
**Leadership Boost**
In April 2025, the company announced the appointment of **Stuart Munro** as VP of Exploration. Munro is known for his role in the Graff discovery and brings over 50 years of global exploration experience to the table. His presence adds major credibility to the team and signals that Supernova is taking its oil exploration ambitions seriously.
**Stock Snapshot**
As of April 21, 2025:
* **CSE (SUPR)**: CAD 0.49
* **OTC (SUPRF)**: USD 0.04
* **Market Cap**: \~CAD 15.7 million
Volume is still relatively light, but with oil speculation heating up in Namibia, SUPR could attract more attention fast if drilling news or JV announcements drop.
**The Bull Case**
* Exposure to **world-class offshore oil assets** in Namibia.
* Recently enhanced **leadership with proven track record**.
* Very low current valuation relative to project size and nearby success.
* Operates in a **jurisdiction gaining major international attention**.
**The Bear Case**
* Still a **pre-drill play**, which means high risk.
* **No revenue**, exploration phase only.
* Potential future dilution if capital is needed for operations.
**Final Thoughts**
For risk-tolerant investors looking for an early-stage energy play with asymmetric upside, Supernova Metals could be worth keeping an eye on. With a stake in Namibia’s oil-rich Orange Basin and credible leadership onboard, this microcap stock might have the right ingredients to punch above its weight—if all goes well.

[$FDXTF](https://x.com/search?q=%24FDXTF&src=cashtag_click) FendX Enters into an Exclusive Supply Agreement and Signs Exclusive IP License Agreement with Scott Smith and US BioSolutions
[https://newsfilecorp.com/release/249597](https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/249597)
# April 24, 2025 8:00 AM EDT | Source: [FendX Technologies Inc.](https://www.newsfilecorp.com/company/9526/FendX-Technologies-Inc.)
* **Signing the Supply Agreement enables FendX to create a differentiated finished line of sponge products for sale and distribution in consumer, retail and other commercial cleaning markets worldwide.**
* **Eco-friendly sponge will offer a sustainable alternative to traditional sponges by being washable, reuseable and biodegradable, resistant to bacterial growth and free of toxic plasticizers.**
* **North American household cleaner sponge market, alone, valued at US$1.96 billion in 2024 and projected to attain US$2.92 billion by 2033****^(1)**
Oakville, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 24, 2025) - FendX Technologies Inc. **(CSE: FNDX) (OTCQB: FDXTF) (FSE: E8D)** (the "**Company**" or "**FendX**"), a nanotechnology company developing surface protection products, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an exclusive supply agreement (the "**Supply Agreement**") dated April 23, 2025 with US BioSolutions LLC ("**US BioSolutions**"), to supply FendX with bulk rolls of Open-Cell foam using US BioSolutions' proprietary manufacturing trade-secrets and know-how licensed from Smith. FendX plans to use this foam as a platform to manufacture eco-friendly sponge products for sale and distribution in consumer, retail and other commercial cleaning markets worldwide. FendX has also signed an exclusive license agreement for certain intellectual property ("**IP**") and a trademark (the "**IP Agreement**") dated April 23, 2025 with US BioSolutions and Smith. The licensed IP owned by Smith and licensed to FendX includes three pending patents related to the use of the sponge in cleaning surfaces and for use of the sponge as a future wound care drug delivery device. The licensed trademark, BioFoam®, owned by US BioSolutions and licensed to FendX is intended for use as the tradename for FendX's future eco-friendly sponge product line.
Under the Supply Agreement, US BioSolutions will manufacture bulk rolls of Open-Cell foam which FendX will further process into various sponge formats for sale and distribution for cleaning applications in consumer, retail and other commercial markets worldwide. FendX expects its eco-friendly sponge product line to be a novel alternative to traditional sponge products, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional sponges by being washable, reuseable and biodegradable, resistant to bacterial growth and is free of toxic plasticizers (i.e., phthalates).
The licensed pending patents include a US patent application entitled "OPEN-CELL FOAM BASED PATHOGEN REMEDIATION and US and European national patent applications entitled "OPEN-CELL FOAM BASED WOUND TREATMENT". These patents provide FendX with exclusive rights for certain pathogen remediation and the opportunity to develop the eco-friendly sponge as a wound care drug delivery device, respectively, enhancing the Company's product and IP portfolio. The licensed US tradename BioFoam® will be used by FendX as the brand name of their future eco-friendly sponge product line, leveraging this unique name in FendX's marketing and distribution efforts.
Scott Smith is the CEO and founder of US BioSolutions and is the innovator behind the IP and manufacturing trade secrets. Scott brings a wealth of experience in contamination testing and remediation, having worked on over 75 different oil and chemical disasters. He is passionate about supporting communities affected by contamination events. As an inventor named on 25 patents for testing and remediation of water, surfaces, and air contaminated with dangerous pathogens, Smith's expertise will be invaluable in advancing FendX's mission to combat the spread of harmful pathogens. In December 2024, FendX signed an advisory agreement with Smith to assist FendX in its mission to combat the spread of pathogens, which comes at a critical time as the world faces increasing challenges with antibiotic resistant infections and other emerging pathogens.
Dr. Carolyn Myers, CEO and a director of FendX states, "Signing these two agreements enables us to expand our surface cleaning pipeline and IP portfolio while collaborating with Scott Smith. We are focused on our mission to provide solutions to keep surfaces clean as we seek innovative products and technologies that complement our novel nano-tech product pipeline." Dr. Myers continues, "The eco-friendly sponge has unique properties that we believe will play an important role in the various markets we plan to target, and together with the North American household sponge market currently valued at US$1.96 billion^(1), we believe offers a potentially significant opportunity for FendX."
Scott Smith, CEO of US BioSolutions LLC, stated, "We are pleased to execute the agreements with FendX to provide them with three patent filings related to disinfection and wound care, the trademark BioFoam® and signing of a supply agreement for the sponge incorporating our manufacturing trade secrets and licensed pending patents." Scott Smith continues, "I am very excited to collaborate with FendX on advancing products using our Open-Cell foam which is made from a medical grade elastomer that contains no dangerous plasticizers like almost all other Open-Cell foam and is already FDA approved in another medical application. I look forward to working with Dr. Myers and her team to bring safer and effective cleaning products to the market."
As consideration for the license of the IP under the IP Agreement, the Company will issue Smith total consideration of 1,000,000 common shares (each, a "**Share**") in the capital of FendX at a deemed price of $0.10 per Share, and which Shares are to be issued within seven (7) days of the signing of the agreements, and in accordance with Canadian Securities Exchange ("**CSE**") policies. All Shares to be issued will be subject to applicable Canadian and United States statutory hold periods. Under the terms of the Supply Agreement, FendX shall pay for each purchase order at a price per square foot for a period of twelve (12) months at a predetermined price. The parties have agreed to negotiate in good faith a lower price per square foot with a corresponding annual volume minimum, and from time to time, the parties will meet to review the annual price per square foot and corresponding volume minimum.
