Rebuilding America’s Iron Supply Starts Now 🇺🇸 The global shift toward domestic supply chains is accelerating—and iron is at the center of it. North American Iron is advancing a project designed to reduce U.S. reliance on imported pig iron by reclaiming Minnesota’s historic iron ore reserves. Why it matters: • U.S. demand: ~13M tons of pig iron • Imports: ~4–5M tons annually • Domestic solution: 2M tons/year targeted production This isn’t just about strategic resources — it’s about national security, industrial capacity, and supply chain independence. With permitting underway (target: 2026) and production aimed for 2029, North American Iron is positioning itself to become the first U.S.-based merchant pig iron producer. A legacy resource. A modern critical need. A supply gap ready to be filled. Watch the full feature:

Monopoly Defence Company In India There’s an Indian company quietly sitting inside some of the world’s most advanced machines from space rockets to fighter jets. It supplies aerospace-grade titanium and superalloys to global giants like Blue Origin, Honeywell, Dassault, BAE Systems, and even ISRO. What makes this even more interesting? Very few companies globally can manufacture and certify these mission-critical materials. With a fully integrated titanium ecosystem and a massive capacity expansion coming up, this company is positioning itself right at the center of a global supply chain shift. While the world looks for alternatives to disrupted supply sources, India might already have its answer. This is the kind of hidden opportunity most investors miss early. Credit : ValueEducator

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. is "playing strip poker" with an empty hand. Ex-CIA Larry Johnson warns that critical munitions, including Patriot and Tomahawk missiles, are rapidly depleting, with production failing to meet the burn rate of modern warfare. Compounding the crisis, the U.S. defense supply chain relies heavily on China for rare earth minerals used in guidance systems. China is now taking advantage of the situation by withholding these essential materials.

Canada may be entering a new resource supercycle. The global push toward electrification is creating massive demand for the materials and energy sources Canada already possesses. Lithium. Copper. Graphite. Cobalt. LNG. Nuclear. Canada has them all. As countries race to secure critical minerals and energy supply, Canada is increasingly positioned as a key supplier to the global economy. But it’s bigger than mining alone. The opportunity spans: - Critical mineral development & processing - LNG and domestic energy production - Renewable energy infrastructure - Nuclear & grid expansion - Large-scale industrial investment The shift toward electrification isn’t slowing down. And according to Lance Mortlock, EY Canada Managing Partner, Industrials & Energy, Canada could be moving into a “build economy” — one designed to attract long-term capital and industrial growth.

Is There a 70-Year Plan Behind the Global Crisis? There are warnings of a global famine. Not someday. But something being set in motion right now. Key trade routes are under pressure. The Strait of Hormuz — one of the most critical pathways for global energy and supply. If that gets disrupted… it doesn’t just affect oil. It affects food. Supply chains. Entire nations. And when systems like this start breaking down… the consequences move fast. So the real question is: Is this a crisis… or something being engineered? Alex Newman

Elliott wrapped up with what he considers one of the most overlooked economic stories right now: the silver market. With rising demand from industries like AI, electric vehicles, and defense, silver is becoming harder to source—and even harder to mine. Most of the current supply doesn’t come from dedicated silver mines, but as a byproduct of copper, which declines when the broader economy slows. “There’s no reason why silver shouldn’t be $55 to $75 an ounce,” he said. “The demand is increasing so rapidly that you can’t keep up with it.” For those paying attention, Elliott sees a rare window—the ultimate investment opportunity, backed by real-world demand and a tightening global supply.

Kristi L. Noem is joining NovaRed Mining - as a strategic adviser, and OMG, this is a major headline for the critical-minerals space. Her resume is stacked: farmer, rancher, business owner, South Dakota state lawmaker, U.S. Congresswoman, 33rd Governor of South Dakota, 8th U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, and now U.S. Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. That means decades of experience across agriculture, energy, infrastructure, economic development, public policy, emergency management, transportation security, and national security. Why is this powerful for NRED? Because NovaRed is focused on copper-gold exploration in British Columbia, and copper is becoming a strategic material for the U.S., Canada, and allied nations. Copper powers electric grids, AI data centers, defense systems, transportation, advanced manufacturing, and the infrastructure behind modern economies. In a world where secure supply chains matter more than ever, NovaRed’s copper story connects directly to national security, energy security, and North American resource independence. NovaRed Mining: exploration, AI-enhanced technology, copper, and critical-minerals security. Not investment advice. Personal advisory capacity only. No government endorsement.

Chamath's best trade idea for 2026 is not a stock. It is copper. "We are still completely underestimating how short we are in terms of the global demand and supply dynamics of a handful of critical elements that we need. The asset that is set up to go absolutely parabolic is copper. The reason is that it is, at least as it stands today, the most useful, cheap, and amenable conductive material that we have That material manifests in everything from our data centers, to chips, to our weapon systems. It is just everywhere, everywhere, everywhere"

🚨🇨🇳 PENTAGON IN PANIC: CHINA TESTS SHAPE-SHIFTING HYPERSONIC RAMJET ENGINE China has pulled off a major hypersonic breakthrough by ground-testing a variable-geometry Ramjet that reshapes its own internal airflow channel in flight — much like a throat tightening and relaxing — and runs continuously from Mach 1.8 all the way to Mach 6 without leaking superheated gases or needing a heavy rocket booster to get started. 🔸 Chinese engineers solved the decades-old problem of creating reliable airtight seals for moving parts inside variable-geometry Ramjets, a challenge that caused severe gas leaks at extreme heat and speed and led most countries to abandon the design entirely. 🔸 The engine’s combustion chamber throat adjusted itself in just one-third of a second while inhaling gases at 1,650 degrees Celsius, delivering stable performance across a wide speed range that previously required separate boosters and added cost and complexity. 🔸 The graphite seal used in the Chinese breakthrough is the same one the US defense industry desperately needs. The US defense industry, now faces vulnerabilities in its graphite supply chains – material critical for missile nose tips, rocket nozzles, stealth coatings, and nuclear reactor components. 🔸 China produces nearly 80 percent of the world’s graphite, including the high-purity grades needed for aerospace, and restricted exports of the material to the United States starting in late 2024. 🔸 Washington has invoked the Defense Production Act to fund domestic and allied graphite mining while Europe pushes similar efforts under its Critical Raw Materials Act, yet building new supply chains from scratch is expected to take a decade or more. Do you think U.S. engines can catch up with Chinese technology?

"Meat prices are arguably the biggest challenge for shoppers—and they’ve been for a while. But the real surprise isn’t beef, it’s chicken. Prices are up 9.2% year-over-year, when historically increases rarely exceed 2–3%. What’s even more striking is that Canada is now importing millions of kilos of chicken from the U.S. Despite supply management, domestic production isn’t keeping pace with rising demand."

While the world is watching the Strait of Hormuz, the real power game is shifting to the Malacca Strait. The U.S. is strengthening defense ties with Indonesia at a chokepoint through which nearly 80% of China’s oil and trade passes. This is a calculated move to gain strategic control over one of the most critical global trade routes. Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore are central to this corridor. While China has expanded its influence through investments and trade, the U.S. is countering it through defense partnerships and maritime presence. At the same time, tensions around the Strait of Hormuz have exposed how vulnerable global supply chains are. China has already warned against any disruption to its vessels, showing how critical these routes are for its economy. This is a larger U.S.–China power play where control over key chokepoints like Malacca can shape the future of global geopolitics.

Today, I held a Staff meeting, focusing primarily on energy security and the protection of our energy system. The Russians have not changed their objective of destroying Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, relentlessly attacking and adjusting their strikes to our defense capabilities, making it more difficult to repel them. Today’s reports covered defense systems, the protection of energy facilities, and the recovery efforts after attacks. We also discussed air defense capabilities and the need for interceptor missiles. New tasks have been assigned to our diplomats and the Ministry of Defense for working with partners. The supply of air defense systems for Ukraine is critical and must not stop. It is essential to constantly seek ways worldwide to strengthen our defense, increase domestic production of necessary equipment, localize manufacturing, and secure licensing agreements with partners. This is crucial work, with much of Ukraine’s future depending on it.
