    Nick Hodge – Market Reactions To War In The Middle East, Accumulating The Volatility in Gold, Uranium, and Critical Minerals Stocks

    [Recorded March 18th, 2026]  Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Underground Alpha, joins me for our monthly longer-format discussion on different macroeconomic factors and market reactions to the war in the Middle East, and how he continuing to accumulate select stocks into the volatility in gold, royalty, uranium, and critical minerals resource stocks.   We start off discussing the macro factors moving the markets, from slowing growth and lower GDP readings quarter over quarter, to rising inflation numbers, surging oil prices, and a higher US dollar in response to the geopolitical tensions.    Whereas oil has a near 90% correlation with the UD dollar, gold has been negatively correlated, dropping while the greenback has moved higher.   Shifting over to the corrective moves in gold, silver, and the precious metals stocks, Nick points out that investors must know what they own, understand the thesis on why they own it, and have confidence in the coming catalysts and teams ability to execute. If investors have this understanding and conviction in their stock selections, then they’ll be able to hold through any corrective moves, like what we’ve been seeing across the board in March. He points out that we are still in a structural bull market in the precious metals due to a number of macroeconomic factors, and believes buying into extreme weakness will be rewarded in the future.   We then pivoted over to the advantages of the royalty stock business model, and he highlighted the value proposition that he sees in Royal Gold (NASDAQ: RGLD) and how he utilized the strategy of setting targeted limit orders to take advantage of market volatility and acquire a larger position recently.   Shifting over to the junior mining stocks, Nick highlighted the corrective moves and lack of buying volume in some of names he’s been acquiring like North Shore Uranium Ltd. (TSX-V:NSU) and Daura Gold Corp. (TSXV: DGC) (OTC Pink: DGCOF).    This transitioned the conversation over into some of the macro drivers of nuclear power and the need for new uranium discoveries.   Wrapping up we briefly covered the renewed investor interest and participation in critical minerals companies focused on rare earths, antimony, tungsten, tantalum, niobium, scandium, and germanium. With regards to rare earths, he mentioned Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), due to their ability to mine mineral sands projects globally, to then separate, and process rare earths domestically. Nick also flagged PMET Resources Inc. (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF) as a company that not only has a world-class lithium project, but also compelling caesium and tantalum resources.     Click here to follow Nick’s analysis and publications over at Digest Publishing     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

    GoldQuest Mining - Ongoing Drilling Will Feed Into Resource Update and BFS On Romero Gold-Copper-Silver-Zinc Project

    Luis Santana, CEO and Director of GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF), joins me for a comprehensive introduction to this Canadian exploration and development company, with strong participation from Dominican investors, focused on advancing its gold, copper, silver, and zinc assets in the Dominican Republic. The Company has a Board of Directors and management team with prior experience developing and operating a mine in the country, and they are drilling to move towards an updated Resource Estimate and Bankable Feasibility Study later in 2026.    We start off reviewing the history of the company where the initial resource and project economics were outlined on the Romero and Romero South deposits back in 2016, bringing in Agnico Eagle as a key stakeholder.  Then in 2017 a new discovery was made at the Cachimbo area, but there were organized community protests and the company went dormant for a few years, with out the surrounding community buy-in.  Then in 2022 Luis was chosen as CEO to work on the social license and advancing the Romero Project once again.  After a few years of community outreach, engagement, and education, there is finally a majority support for advancing the project.   The Company today has 57 employees and ~150 contractors working on the ground, and the exploration team is finishing up a 5,000 meter drill program at Cachimbo.   There is additional exploration going on around Romero and Romero south that will factor into the updated Resource Estimate and BFS later this year.   These are polymetallic VMS deposits that contain gold, copper, silver, and zinc mineralization, giving them an internally hedged advantage, and the ability to highlight the critical minerals for permitting and strategic importance of the Project.   If you have questions for Luis regarding the Romero Project or GoldQuest Mining, then please email those into me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from GoldQuest Mining   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

    In this episode of The KE Report, host Shad Marquitz sits down with Joel Elconin, co-host of the Pre-Market Prep Show and founder of the Stock Trader Network, to dissect a market that appears to have rolled over into a corrective period. With oil prices surging, a disruptive geopolitical backdrop, the major averages testing near-term support, and the Quadruple Witching Expiration tomorrow, Joel provides a candid, sobering assessment of the macroeconomic and geopolitical forces currently rattling investors.   Key Discussion Points:   Geopolitical Catalysts and Inflation: The direct link between global conflict, surging oil prices, an increase inflation, and lower expectations for near-term rate cuts from the Fed. High Oil Price Contagion Effect: Everything from airline prices to shipping containers is seeing rising prices, and with higher prices at the gas pump, and businesses passing along higher freight and input costs, this could slow down the economy. The “R” Word:   Is a Recession looming in the future if economic growth contracts, and when paired with higher inflation, loss of jobs, and rising energy costs, are we actually drifting towards Stagflation? Loss of Market Momentum: Why the choppy technical action in the S&P 500 and Dow suggests a waning appetite for risk among investors in early 2026. Picks and Shovels:  Joel is favoring hardware over software, in a market that is selling off AI stocks, in favor of hardware companies like Micron, Scandisk, Modine Manufacturing, and MasTec The Nvidia is still the biggest hardware stock in the market: Joel dives into the forward guidance and analyst expectations for NVDA and what that means for the weighted indexes. Agriculture Hardware:   As farmers scramble to lock down fertilizer supplies for planting season, Joel remains more animated by farming equipment manufacturers like John Deer and Caterpillar.

    West Red Lake Gold Mines – Comprehensive Visual Exploration Update Of Multiple Drill Targets At Both Madsen And Rowan

    Will Robinson, VP of Exploration at West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSX.V:WRLG) (OTCQB:WRLGF), joins me for an expanded visual presentation on a number of underground and surface exploration targets of focus at and near the Madsen Mine and Rowan Deposit, in the Red Lake district of Ontario, Canada.   We start off with the big picture lay of the land across the Madsen Mine area, and then vector in on the new high-grade gold results from the 4447 Zone and 904 Complex areas at South Austin.   Will also highlights the speed at which their team can turn a geologic thesis, into drill results, and then get that data into the mine plan, with their improving understanding of the geological model and underground infrastructure advantages.   We also review the planned work to develop the 13-level exploration drift to get over into parts of Austin, East Drive, and Derlak areas that haven’t had good underground access for drilling.  The ultra high-grade 8-Zone is reviewed again, with Will pointing out that the narrow zone of mineralization is open in both directions and more exploration along trend is required.   Moving up closer to surface, we spend some time outlining how their exploration and engineering teams completed a re-evaluation of the Fork deposit pointing to its shallow, high-grade, low-plunging zone of gold mineralization that is located approximately 250 meters southwest from existing underground development at Madsen.  The exploration team did another 3,000 meters of definition drilling from surface last year, which demonstrated in the value in eventually tunneling over from McVeigh into some of the high-grade areas of mineralization while also looking for mineralized extensions.  Then even further over from Fork is the historic producing Starratt-Olsen mine, which has shown promising high-grade gold mineralization at depth and will be getting some exploration focus in the year to come.   Rounding it out at surface, Will flagged a number of other priority greenfields exploration targets like North Shore, Upper 8, Faulkenham, and Killoran.  These areas have returned compelling mapping, soil sampling, and limited drilling in the past, and warrant more follow up in the exploration seasons to come.   If you have any follow up questions for Will or the team over at West Red Lake Gold please email them into me at  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is shareholder of West Red Lake Gold Mines at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news at West Red Lake Gold   Click here to view the VIDEO version of this podcast on YouTube   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.
