    Commodities Could Explode 54% as Oil Surges 9.6% and Yields Break Out ~ Monday Market Moves

    📩 Website 📩 Free Newsletter 📈 Technical Analysis for Beginners  🌎 Travel Channel  🌎 Conference Nov 22-24 Discount Code ITW500  Recording Date 9-11-2026. The S&P 500 slipped 0.8%, but its developing bull flag keeps my bias pointed higher, while the VIX jumped 9.2%. The bigger macro signal is coming from bonds, with the U.S. 10-year yield closing near 4.97% and the 20-year reaching 5.39%. Meanwhile, the Bloomberg Commodity Index has broken out of a major cup-and-handle formation, producing potential measured targets from roughly 190 to 220, with the percentage-based projection implying a 54% move. Gold fell 1.5%, silver dropped 2.3%, and copper declined 2%, creating several critical technical levels to watch. I also dig into where the next opportunities and risks may be forming across commodity equities. WTI oil exploded 9.6% after reaching roughly $104, while Brent gained 8.6% after approaching $110, although I expect both to cool next week. Uranium remains especially interesting, with long-term contracts at $96.50 per pound while spot trades $6.50 cheaper, and URNM plunged 8.2%, potentially opening lower entry points. I'm also watching GDX, SILJ, COPX, XLE, FCG and PICK, which includes Rio Tinto, BHP, Freeport-McMoRan and Glencore. Across these markets, the 200-day moving average remains one of my key reference points for finding attractive risk-reward setups.   Key Insights in this episode ✅ Bloomberg Commodity Index breaks out with a potential 54% measured move toward roughly 220. ✅ U.S. 10-year yields reach 4.97%, threatening their highest level in roughly 19 years. ✅ WTI oil surges 9.6% to roughly $104 before Steve turns bearish for next week. ✅ Gold drops 1.5%, with a breakdown potentially exposing more than 10% downside. ✅ Uranium term contracts hit $96.50 per pound as URNM plunges 8.2%. ✅ Copper falls 2%, while COPX and PICK offer potential setups near their 200-day averages.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 0:00 S&P 500 Dollar Yields And Commodity Breakout 05:05 Gold PHYS And GDX Outlook 08:58 Silver PSLV And SILJ Setup 11:36 Copper And COPX Forecast 12:41 Uranium SRUUF And URNM Opportunities 16:32 Oil WTI Brent And XLE Outlook 18:27 Natural Gas And FCG Forecast 20:21 Coal Market Outlook 21:18 Platinum And Palladium Setup 22:29 Nickel Futures Breakdown 22:55 PICK Mining ETF Outlook 23:34 Closing Market Outlook   DISCLAIMER: Steve Barton and In It To Win It are not registered investment advisers or broker-dealers.

    Michael Oliver Says Gold Could Explode to $9,000 as Bonds Break

    Michael Oliver, founder of Momentum Structural Analysis and veteran market technician, joins me to break down what he sees as a major shift away from paper assets and toward commodities and monetary metals.  👉 Michael Oliver's Website: https://www.olivermsa.com Recording Date 9-10-2026. In this episode, Michael explains why weakening Treasury bonds, rising yields, a vulnerable U.S. dollar, and continued monetary expansion could become the forces driving the next major market rotation. We examine his bearish dollar thesis, the yen's potential turn, and a money supply that has increased nearly 50% since COVID. Michael argues that stocks have absorbed enormous liquidity since the post-2008 QE era, but with equities now looking like a bubble by his metrics and government bonds losing their traditional safe-haven appeal, capital may increasingly seek alternatives. I also dig into Michael's bullish commodity, gold, and silver outlook. He highlights the Bloomberg Commodity Index near 146 versus its 2008 peak around 235 and identifies a breakout from a roughly 16-year declining channel. Michael believes commodity-related stocks, agriculture, oil, base-metal miners, and ETFs such as MOO could benefit. Gold's previous major bull markets delivered roughly eightfold advances, while the current move from about $1,050 has only quadrupled, supporting his argument for potentially $8,000–$9,000 gold. Silver is even more explosive in his framework, with Michael discussing a theoretical $500 long-term target while emphasizing that silver and precious-metals miners could ultimately outperform gold.   Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Michael expects rising yields, weaker bonds, and a falling dollar to drive the next major monetary-metals move. ✅ Money supply has increased nearly 50% since COVID, reinforcing his long-term inflation and hard-asset thesis. ✅ The Bloomberg Commodity Index has broken a roughly 16-year declining channel and could enter a major second upwave. ✅ Gold could reach $8,000–$9,000 if this bull market merely matches the eightfold magnitude of its prior major advances. ✅ Silver's historical range produces a theoretical $500 target, while its long-term momentum structure remains bullish. ✅ Michael expects silver and precious-metals miners to outperform gold as capital rotates away from stocks and government bonds.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 00:00 Macro Outlook and Treasury Bond Warning 03:08 Yen Turn and Dollar Weakness 05:56 The Dollar Could Become an Event 07:27 Money Supply and Real Inflation 09:02 Nearly 50% Money Supply Expansion 14:56 Historic Commodity Rotation 17:42 Oil Joins the Commodity Breakout 19:41 Gold Bull Market Outlook 23:01 Silver's Massive Upside Potential 24:38 Gold at $4,500 and Silver Breakout 26:08 Silver Gold and Miners Turn Higher 27:43 Premium Commodity Outlook   DISCLAIMER: Steve Barton and In It To Win It are not registered investment advisers or broker-dealers.

    Chris Vermeulen Reveals Why He's Betting on Stocks Over Gold Right Now

    Chris Vermeulen, Founder and CEO of The Technical Traders, technical analyst, equities trader, investment strategist, educator, and creator of Asset Revesting, joins me to break down where the strongest market opportunities are developing.  👉 Technical Traders: https://thetechnicaltraders.com/?am_id=steve5172  Recording Date 9-7-2026. In this episode, Chris explains why uncertainty around Treasury yields, the bond market, the dollar, war, energy prices, crypto, and precious metals has investors searching for direction. We dig into gold's conflicting signals, with its short-term trend moving higher while his longer-term technical framework remains bearish. Chris identifies gold support around $4,000 and $3,600, with deeper downside potentially near $3,100, while Fibonacci projections point toward roughly $6,400 and ultimately $7,900 to $8,000 if a confirmed bullish trend develops. I also ask Chris about silver, platinum, palladium, copper, the Nasdaq, and S&P 500. Silver remains a laggard, while platinum and palladium have yet to confirm a broad precious-metals bull move. Copper looks considerably stronger, with higher highs and higher lows supporting a potential 10% advance toward approximately $7.40. Chris walks me through his Fibonacci methodology, including the 61.8% and 100% measured-move levels, bull flags, and the risks of triangle breakouts near the apex. Most importantly, Chris reveals where he is positioned now: long equities through highly liquid ETFs, with strong Nasdaq and S&P 500 setups and potential for another roughly 20% Nasdaq advance if an AI-driven euphoric phase develops.   Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Gold Could Target $8,000 after confirmation, while $3,600 remains a major downside support zone. ✅ Copper Has Roughly 10% Upside toward $7.40 as its higher-high and higher-low structure remains bullish. ✅ Nasdaq Could Rally Another 20% if equities enter another AI-driven euphoric phase. ✅ Silver Is Still Underperforming Gold but could eventually become a late-cycle catch-up trade. ✅ Platinum and Palladium Are Not Confirming a broad precious-metals bull market yet. ✅ Chris Is Long Equities and Out of Metals using Asset Revesting to rotate toward assets already rising in value.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 00:00 Macro Market Outlook 01:34 Gold Technical Analysis 05:12 Gold Downside and Upside Targets 09:02 What Turns Chris Bullish on Gold 11:08 Silver Outlook and Underperformance 13:27 Platinum and Palladium Signals 15:26 Precious Metals Investment Opportunities 16:35 Copper Targets $7.40 18:05 Best Fibonacci Extension Levels 19:39 How to Draw Fibonacci Extensions 23:16 Copper Triangle Breakout Risk 25:22 Chris Vermeulen's Favorite Market Bet 26:54 Why Chris Trades Indices and ETFs 27:36 How to Follow Chris Vermeulen 28:12 Premium Uranium Oil and Energy Preview   DISCLAIMER: Steve Barton and In It To Win It are not registered investment advisers or broker-dealers.

    Oil Surges 9.3% as a Major Commodity Breakout Finally Begins ~ Monday Market Moves

    📩 Website 📩 Free Newsletter 📈 Technical Analysis for Beginners  🌎 Travel Channel  🌎 Conference Nov 22-24 Discount Code ITW500  Recording Date 9-6-2026. The S&P 500 finished up just 0.1%, while the dollar fell 0.5% after nearly reaching 100 on the DXY. Treasury yields remain a major macro signal, with the 10-year yield up 1.1% for the week and the 30-year yield reaching its highest level since 2007. Gold dropped 1.2%, and I'm watching $4,265 as an important potential entry level. Silver declined 1.5% after rejection near $72, with $61.50 to $62.50 looking more attractive to me. I also cover GDX, PSLV and SILJ, including the technical levels where I would consider adding exposure. Energy is where the action really picked up. WTI surged 9.3% after breaking out of an inverse head and shoulders pattern, while Brent gained 8.6%. Natural gas rose 2.6%, and Pacific and Atlantic thermal coal are challenging major resistance levels. Met coal delivered an impressive 16% weekly move and closed around $275 per ton. I also examine copper and COPX, uranium through SRUUF and URNM, plus XLE, FCG, platinum, palladium, nickel and PICK. Across these markets, I'm looking for disciplined entries rather than chasing strength, using moving averages, Fibonacci retracements, support zones and limit orders to identify where the next higher-probability opportunities may emerge.   Key Insights in this episode ✅ WTI surged 9.3% after breaking its inverse head and shoulders pattern, though a short-term retest could follow. ✅ Met coal jumped 16% to roughly $275 per ton, strengthening the bullish setup across coal markets. ✅ Gold fell 1.2%, with $4,265 standing out as a key support and potential accumulation level. ✅ Silver dropped 1.5%, with stronger entry territory identified around $61.50 to $62.50. ✅ Uranium remains constructive longer term, with URNM near $53 and its 50-day moving average an important support area. ✅ Treasury yields continue climbing, with the 30-year yield reaching its highest level since 2007.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 0:00 S&P 500 Dollar VIX And Treasury Yields 02:03 Gold Pullback And $4,265 Target 04:44 Silver Downside And Key Entry Levels 09:29 Copper Resistance And COPX Setup 11:05 Uranium SRUUF And URNM Opportunities 13:23 WTI Oil Breakout And Brent Rally 15:08 Natural Gas Outlook And FCG 17:01 Thermal Coal And Met Coal Breakout 20:39 Platinum And Palladium Entries 22:03 Nickel Breakout Setup 22:37 PICK ETF Limit Order Setup 23:19 Final Market Outlook   DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor.

    Doomberg Predicts Venezuela's Return Toward 4 Million Barrels a Day

    Doomberg, the pseudonymous voice of the independent Doomberg publication and newsletter focused on energy, finance, and geopolitics, represents a team of entrepreneurs with deep professional experience in heavy industry, private equity, and the hard sciences.  👉 Doomberg Newsletter Recording Date 9-1-2026. In this episode, Doomberg joins me to break down what the oil market is really telling investors amid turmoil in the Middle East, diesel concerns, and shifting global energy flows. We start with crack spreads and why the difference between crude oil costs and the value of refined products is essential to understanding refinery profitability. Doomberg explains why oil futures can provide a higher-quality market signal than equities, why delivery and contract expiration enforce discipline in crude markets, and why the failure of oil to reach the predicted $150 to $200 range during the Iran conflict forced him to reassess his own expectations. We then turn to Venezuela, where Doomberg says production has recovered to roughly 1.1 million barrels per day and argues the country could eventually move back toward the roughly 4 million barrels per day it once produced. I ask him about the potential role of Chevron, Exxon and other supermajors, the advantages of blending Venezuelan heavy crude with lighter Permian hydrocarbons, and his expectation that substantial outside capital could accelerate the country's energy revival. We also examine Greenland, Saudi Aramco, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, diesel exports, and oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz. Doomberg's key message is that investors should pay attention to the price signals coming directly from sophisticated oil markets rather than assume geopolitical headlines dictate prices. With Brent trading in the $80s during the discussion, he argues enough oil is reaching the global market to prevent a sustained shortage and says $200 oil remains unlikely unless an extreme event, such as the destruction of major Saudi oil and gas infrastructure, dramatically changes the supply picture.   Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Crack spreads reveal refinery economics and whether the bottleneck is crude supply or refining capacity. ✅ Doomberg argues oil futures provide unusually valuable signals because contracts face delivery and expiration. ✅ $200 oil is unlikely in Doomberg's view without catastrophic disruption to Saudi oil and gas infrastructure. ✅ Venezuela once produced roughly 4 million barrels per day and was already back near 1.1 million by July. ✅ Doomberg expects major outside capital and eventually companies such as Chevron to pursue Venezuela's revival. ✅ America's SPR matters less domestically because the U.S. has become an energy superpower and net exporter.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 00:00 Welcome Back Doomberg 00:19 Diesel And Crack Spreads 04:09 Why Oil Futures Matter 09:26 How Refiners Make Money 13:20 Why One Person Cannot Control Oil 14:48 Greenland Oil And Geopolitics 16:57 Venezuela's 4 Million Barrel Opportunity 21:35 The Venezuela Investment Structure 24:31 Strategic Petroleum Reserve And Hormuz 27:41 What Oil Futures Are Signaling 28:38 Premium Canada Tariffs And Energy   DISCLAIMER: Steve Barton and In It to Win It are not registered investment advisers or broker-dealers.

    Gold Drops 3.2% As Steve Barton Warns The Selloff Isn't Over ~ Monday Market Moves

    📩 Website 📩 Free Newsletter 📈 Technical Analysis for Beginners  🌎 Travel Channel  🌎 Conference Nov 22-24 Discount Code ITW500  Recording Date 8-30-2026. The S&P 500 gained 0.5%, and I'm giving it a modest 55% probability of moving higher, while the DXY jumped 0.9% and broke several important moving averages. Precious metals were much weaker. Gold dropped 3.2% after being rejected around $4,755, and I think the correction has further to run, with support around $4,450, $4,400 and $4,265. Silver fell 2.5% after reaching $72.05, while GDX dropped 3.1% and PSLV lost 4.4%. I also explain how I use staged 15%, 35% and 50% allocations, Fibonacci retracements, and historical support and resistance to build positions as prices become cheaper. In commodities, I'm watching some very different opportunities develop. Copper gained 1.1%, and I think it could challenge a new all-time high, although the COPX copper miners ETF looks vulnerable to a pullback. Uranium barely moved at 0.1%, but URNM fell 2.6%, creating what I see as a potentially attractive accumulation opportunity around $56, with deeper levels near $50 and $47.50. WTI dropped 3.7%, while Brent fell 5.7%, yet I remain constructive on oil beyond the near-term weakness. Natural gas gained 4.1%, palladium surged 5.8%, and I remain optimistic on platinum despite its 2.2% weekly decline. Nickel, meanwhile, fell 1.6%, and after reassessing its chart in real time, I'm leaning bearish for next week.   Key Insights in this episode ✅ Gold fell 3.2%, with Steve expecting further downside toward key Fibonacci support levels. ✅ Silver dropped 2.5% after reaching $72.05, shifting next week's bias slightly bearish. ✅ Copper gained 1.1%, with a possible new all-time high developing despite COPX weakness. ✅ URNM fell 2.6%, creating potential uranium accumulation levels around $56, $50 and $47.50. ✅ Natural gas climbed 4.1%, while leveraged BOIL remains a short-term trading vehicle due to decay. ✅ Palladium surged 5.8% as platinum and palladium show increasingly bullish technical setups.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 0:00 S&P 500 And Dollar Market Outlook 01:59 Gold Drops 3.2% And Tests Major Support 07:25 Silver Falls 2.5% After Hitting $72 10:24 Copper Breakout And COPX Reversal Risk 12:19 Uranium Stocks And URNM Buying Levels 15:20 WTI Oil Bear Flag And Energy Outlook 17:34 Natural Gas Rally And BOIL Strategy 20:10 Platinum And Palladium Bullish Setups 22:43 Nickel False Breakout And Downside Risk 23:46 Final Market Thoughts   DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor.

    Rick Rule Warns Commodity Investors to Prepare for a Choppy 2026

    Rick Rule, legendary natural-resource investor, commodities expert, and longtime mining-sector financier, joins me to break down the opportunities and risks developing across the commodity markets.  👉 Battle Bank: https://battlebank.com/high-yield-cash-account/?refid=10040 👉 Rule Classroom (Free) https://ruleclassroom.com/share/-ztDnefsS5h6MTkD?utm_source=manual 👉 Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months) https://ruleclassroom.com/share/--qqlFVftepbST8a?utm_source=manual Recording Date 8-24-2026. In this episode, Rick explains why gold could face near-term softness if long-term U.S. interest rates remain elevated, but argues that further government intervention to suppress yields could ultimately strengthen the bullish case for gold. We discuss silver's role as the more speculative precious metal, including why Rick believes gold normally leads precious-metals bull markets before generalist capital rotates into silver. On copper, Rick highlights strong prices but warns that the world's top 10 copper companies may require more than $250 billion in constant 2025 dollars simply to maintain existing production. I also get Rick's outlook on uranium, where spot is around $89 and longer-term contracting is occurring at a premium as utilities focus increasingly on supply and energy security. We discuss Japan's 43-plant nuclear fleet, with roughly 18 or 19 reactors restarted and potentially around 20 more awaiting restart, along with China's nuclear expansion. Rick explains why oil could soften after an armistice yet face a structural shortage around 2029–2030 because of chronic underinvestment. We examine Exxon, Chevron, U.S. LNG, platinum, palladium and nickel before turning to Banyan, Prospector Metals and Gladiator Metals. Rick closes by warning that markets could become choppier while high-quality resource companies remain attractively valued and an emerging M&A cycle could reward patient investors.   Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Gold could weaken short term before a stronger long-term move. ✅ Silver could outperform once investors rotate from gold. ✅ Copper producers face over $250 billion in sustaining costs. ✅ Uranium benefits from tightening supply and nuclear expansion. ✅ Oil faces a potential structural shortage by 2029–2030. ✅ Resource stocks could benefit from a growing M&A cycle.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank Rule Classroom (Free) Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months) TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 00:00 Welcome Back Rick Rule 00:48 How Banks Profit From Your Cash 02:09 Gold Outlook and U.S. Interest Rates 05:38 Treasury Intervention and U.S. Debt 06:37 Silver and the Precious Metals Cycle 07:46 Gold Versus Silver Allocation 08:35 Copper Near All Time Highs 10:21 Uranium Supply and Contract Prices 12:12 China Nuclear Growth and Japan Restarts 13:14 Oil and the Strait of Hormuz 15:44 Exxon Chevron and Energy Equities 17:22 Platinum and Palladium Outlook 20:00 Nickel and Indonesian Supply 21:38 How to Evaluate Mining Projects 26:02 Banyan Gold and the Upcoming PEA 27:47 Rick Rule's Market Warning 29:31 Premium Portfolio Breakdown   DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor.

    Gold Jumps 5.5% as GDX Explodes 14.3% and the Breakout Accelerates ~ Monday Market Moves

    📩 Free Newsletter: https://stevebarton.substack.com/ 📈 Technical Analysis for Beginners: https://stevebarton.gumroad.com/l/TechnicalAnalysisforBeginners 🌎 Travel Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@inittowinittravel/featured Recording Date 8-21-2026. The S&P 500 had slipped 1.4%, the dollar had fallen 0.8%, and the US 10-year yield had risen 0.9%, but the real story was happening in commodities. Gold exploded 5.5% and pushed through its 200-day moving average, with my next major resistance zone sitting around $4,775 to $4,800. GDX was even stronger, surging 14.3%, while PHYS gained 5.3%. I'm bullish on the direction, but gold's daily RSI near 74 tells me this is not where I want to chase. Silver gained 6.8%, PSLV climbed 8.4%, and SIL jumped 11.2%. With mining ETFs potentially delivering 50% plus moves from recent entry areas, I think taking 10% to 15% off near major targets can be prudent. I also see improving setups across copper, uranium and energy. COPX gained 10.4% after breaking its triangle, while uranium rose 2.2% to roughly $89.40 per pound and longer term contracts were around $95.50. SRUUF held about 81.7 million pounds off the market and remained near a 10% discount, while URNM climbed 6.7%. WTI oil bounced 5.2%, Brent gained 5.4%, and XLE rose 2.3%. Natural gas improved 1.8%, with roughly $2.90 becoming an important breakout level. I'm also watching platinum after its 7.9% rally, palladium after a 1.9% gain, nickel up 1.5%, and PICK for exposure to companies including Rio Tinto, Freeport and Glencore. My broader thesis remains that AI data centers and global electrification could add substantial demand for uranium, copper, oil, natural gas and coal.   Key Insights in this episode ✅ Gold surged 5.5% and could test the major $4,775 to $4,800 resistance zone. ✅ GDX jumped 14.3% while SIL gained 11.2%, creating potential trim opportunities after major miner rallies. ✅ Silver gained 6.8% but faces significant resistance around the $71 to $72 area. ✅ Uranium reached about $89.40 with Steve expecting improving seasonality and stronger upside potential. ✅ COPX rallied 10.4% as copper miners broke out, while copper itself needs to clear the $6.87 high. ✅ Energy demand from AI and electrification strengthens the long-term case for uranium, copper, oil, gas and coal.   Affiliates /Tools for Success that I Love and find Helpful: Technical Analysis Series  Battle Bank  Rule Symposium 2026 Rule Classroom (Free)  Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months)  TradingView (Free) Lobo's Weekly Recap (Free) Uranium Insider Newsletter   Chapters 0:00 Market Outlook S&P 500 Dollar and Rates 3:38 Gold Breakout and Gold Miners 9:53 Silver PSLV and Silver Miners 13:16 Copper and Copper Miners 15:33 Uranium SRUUF and URNM 19:29 Oil Brent XLE and Energy Demand 23:21 Natural Gas Breakout Setup 25:56 Coal Markets and Coal ETF 27:18 Platinum and Palladium Setups 29:34 Nickel Breakout Watch 29:59 PICK Metals and Miners ETF 30:43 Closing Market Thoughts   DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor.

It's not all on one thing. For every bet that I make, I devote one hour of study per month to that investment. I keep the number of bets to what I can feasibly study. AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE: Some of the links on this channel are affiliate links, meaning, at NO additional cost to you, the show may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase and/or subscribe. However, this does not impact my opinion. I recommend them because they are helpful and useful, not because I am looking for the small commission.
