IODINE...The Master Detoxifier Of Heavy Metals & Halides. To Chelate Toxic Mercury, Lead, Fluoride & Bromide...Your Body Requires Iodine. To Make Your Body Inhospitable To Parasites Who Thrive On Heavy Metals...Your Body Requires Iodine. Every Cell Has An Iodine Requirement. There are approximately 2 billion people worldwide suffering from Iodine deficiency & many more suffering from subclinical deficiency. Each of our cells has an iodine receptor site & if there is no available iodine to uptake into the cell, heavy metals will displace & occupy that site. Heavy metals infiltrate where Iodine should be & harm thyroid function. Hypothyroid is caused by heavy metals poisoning because Iodine cannot uptake into the cells. Which is why Iodine supplementation & a healing protocol heals Hypothyroid permanently. Heavy metals infiltrate where iodine should reside & this allows parasites to take hold & harm the body. Parasites seek, use & are attracted to heavy metals. A body overrun by heavy metals is a perfect hospitable environment for parasitic infections. Approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide have a parasitic infection. The RDA dose of 150 mcg is only set to prevent a Thyroid Goiter, not the amount every cell needs for vibrant optimal health. Your thyroid gland alone needs about 6 mg of iodine per day for optimal function. Breast tissue needs an additional 5 mg/day & other body tissues such as your adrenal glands, thymus, ovaries, hypothalamus, prostate & pituitary gland need an another 2 mg/day. For optimal wellness, which is what you should always strive for, you need at least 10 mg of Iodine each day. 10 Life Transformative Benefits of Iodine: 1: Detox Mercury, Aluminum, Lead, Fluoride & Bromide 2: Shrinks Cysts, Fibroids & Tumors 3: Prevents Cancer & Parasitic Infections 4: Heals Candida & Fungal Infections 5: Relieves Menopause symptoms, hot flashes & acne 6: Breaks down scar tissue & adhesions 7: Lifts mood & brain fog 8: Relieves cold hands & feet 9: Stimulates hair growth on scalp, eyebrows & lashes 10: Heals immune system & reduces inflammation Our soil, water & food are mostly devoid of Iodine in this modern era. Even consuming large quantities of eggs, seafood & raw dairy may not be enough to reach optimal Iodine intake each day. An easy way to reach optimal intake involves just a few drops of Lugol's 2% Liquid Iodine. Each drop delivers 2.5 mg of bioavailable Iodine. 👇J.

🇯🇵 [Seoul Economic Daily] 260618 "Jin Even Shook Up Japan's Music Market" Why BTS Jin's Solo Power Is So Remarkable 👩‍🏫BTS Jin has been making a remarkable impact in the Japanese music market as a solo artist, continuing an unparalleled run of success since completing his military service. At Japan's biggest music awards ceremony, Music Awards Japan, the title track Don't Say You Love Me from his solo mini album won the Best of Listeners' Choice International Song award. The achievement is especially meaningful because the result was heavily influenced by fan voting. Users of Spotify, the world's largest music streaming platform, directly participated in the selection process. Upon its release, the song reached No. 1 on Spotify's Global Chart, becoming the first achievement of its kind by an Asian artist. Jin is also setting new longevity records for a K-pop solo artist on Japanese charts, demonstrating his immense popularity across the country. His success continued on the year-end charts as well. On Billboard Japan's year-end rankings, he was the only K-pop solo artist to appear near the top of the Hot 100 singles chart, while also securing a strong position on the Artist 100 chart. On the Oricon charts, he achieved a dominant No. 1 ranking among K-pop solo artists, further solidifying his top-tier status in Japan. Making a powerful return after military service, Jin continues to maintain his position at the highest level both as a solo artist and as a member of BTS. With every release, he continues to make history on global charts. Through his acceptance speech, he expressed heartfelt gratitude to fans around the world and shared his determination to showcase his own unique musical identity through future solo projects. Global fans are continuing to praise Jin as they look forward to the new messages and bold artistic journey he will bring to the worldwide music scene. #JIN #방탄소년단진 MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN公式 방탄소년단

On the floor of Rajya Sabha, MP Mr S. Niranjan Reddy highlighted the crisis faced by single-screen cinemas. I He called attention to the “unprecedented crisis” in the industry — a signal that the decline needs to be discussed at the national level 1990: ~25,000 single-screen theatres 2025: ~6,000 single-screen theatres Crisis in Telangana 450 single-screen theatres have shut down in Telangana alone. Key Reasons for the Shutdown 1. Extreme Drop in Footfalls Lower audience turnout has made operations financially unsustainable. 2. Rapid Multiplex Expansion Multiplexes offer premium experiences, pulling audiences away from traditional single screens. 3. Rising Ticket Rates Higher prices deter middle- and lower-income audiences—the core base of single-screen theatres. 4. High Production & Distribution Costs Increased cost of acquiring films makes it difficult for small theatres to remain profitable. 5. Pandemic-Driven Shift to OTT Post-COVID viewing habits have permanently changed, reducing theatre dependence. 6. 18% GST on Movie Tickets Higher tax burden affects both exhibitors and consumers. 7. Exorbitant Food & Beverage Pricing Overpriced F&B in cinema complexes discourages theatre visits, indirectly impacting single screens too. video credits IBC24 News IBC24 News

Iran just struck a tanker in Hormuz days after signing a peace deal. Energy expert Anas Alhajji explains why that may not break it His most important point reframed the whole fight: Trump keeps insisting there will be "no tolls," but Iran was never asking for tolls. They want a service charge, legally a completely different thing. An app you must install, a guide drone, a registration. And the real issue isn't the money anyway. Charge a single cent and you've still established one thing: ships pass by Iran's permission. That word, CONTROL, is what everyone is fighting over On today's tanker strike, Anas leans toward a fringe IRGC element acting alone rather than coordinated policy, which he says is scarier than open war. In a war you know both sides' capabilities. With rogue factions, you learn everything only after the fact. And his read on why oil never hit the feared heights cuts against the crowd. There was no lingering shortage. When prices spiked past $170, China simply stopped buying, slashing imports by 6 million barrels a day. No secret stash, just demand destruction. His warning: emotions are still raw, and one crazy act by any faction could flip the table. Anas Alhajji

Zelensky is too stupid to capitulate while he can no longer defend his assets! There are no more air defense systems in Ukraine. Not a single Russian ballistic missile has been intercepted – Ukrainian media. During the night, at least 24 Iskander missiles and 4 Zircon missiles were launched, and all of them hit their target in Kiev. What was struck in Ukraine? Ukraine's war transport infrastructure was targeted in Kyiv and the surrounding area. "MLP-Chayka" – this facility stored and distributed components for long-range drones. The "Nova Poshta" innovation terminal – the largest automated sorting center, through which goods of dual purpose passed: for UAVs, for robotic complexes, and for electronic warfare systems. "Trans-Logistics" – this facility not only stored, but also assembled drones of various modifications. "Epicenter" warehouse: receiving orders, sorting, and delivering the same components. In Brovary, the "Brovary Terminal" contained imported components for long-range aircraft, "Raben Ukraine," and another sorting center belonging to "Nova Poshta." Complete aircraft drones were stored there. And three dry cargo ships south of Odessa, directly in the passage. Now, why this is not "an attack on packages," as the Ukrainian TV marathon is already claiming. This is a systematic operation targeting various nodes of the Ukrainian defense industry. First, they targeted the "brains." On July 2, "Radioniks" was hit: control systems for "Flamingo," FP-7, FP-9, and "Neptune-MD." On the 14th, "Radioizmeritel" was hit, an electronic base for the same products and for "Grom-2." On August 1, they hit it again, adding "Burevestnik" and the "Fire Point" facility. Then, they targeted the "limbs." On the 11th, "Aerodron" was hit, a facility for heavy drones. On the 16th, "Rapid" and warehouse "Kiev-1" were hit, containing "Lyutye" and "Leleki" drones. On the 26th, "Smart Intelligent Systems" was hit, along with a facility in southwestern Kiev where, together with American specialists, they assembled up to a thousand units per month. And on the 14th, "Ukrarmo Tech" was destroyed – one of the main production facilities in Ukraine for combat components for drones and missiles. On the 30th, they went beyond the capital: Kalush, "SKB OVT," and "Nefemash." The western border, where rocket assembly was hidden like a safe. It didn't help.

THIS WEEK MIGHT BE THE TOP FOR BITCOIN. And the history backs this. Since inception, $BTC has always repeated one thing. A dump, 749 days after having. In 2014, this led to a 65% crash. In 2018, this led to a 64% crash. In 2022, this led to a 52% crash. And there are reasons to believe it could happen again. 1) Open Interest spike Recently, Bitcoin recorded the largest monthly OI spike of 2026. This is the same with alts, as people are now trying to chase the pump. Usually, when OI goes up this fast, a liquidation cascade often follows. 2) New Fed Chair A new Fed chair will most likely be confirmed this week. Every time a new Fed Chair has been confirmed, BTC has dropped. Given that Kevin Warsh can't do easing soon due to rising inflation, markets could start pricing in the hawkish Fed. 3) Stock euphoria The stock market has been going absolutely parabolic right now. It's almost a certainty that they'll cool off soon. When stocks hit a new ATH, BTC and alts remained way below their highs. What'll happen when stocks go through a correction? IMO, the timing of BTC's peak could be off by a week or two, but the likelihood of a local top is going up with each passing day now.

I've been digging into startup ideas that are obvious in hindsight but somehow still unbuilt And I've got a cash-flowing startup idea for you today... 84% of solo female travelers report feeling unsafe, yet every major travel platform still prioritizes thread counts and breakfast reviews over the basic question: "Can I walk back to my hotel at night?" Women are planning trips by scrolling Reddit threads from 2019, cross-referencing TikToks, and getting safety advice from male backpackers who've never experienced the same risks. It's insane that this is still the state of travel tech in 2025 and going into 2026. Solo female travel is exploding with 71% of solo travelers are now women, searches are up 131% YoY yet they're using tools built for a different era and different concerns. The solution: a map-based safety layer where verified female travelers rate neighborhoods on metrics that actually matter. Green zones for "walked alone at midnight, felt fine." Red zones for "multiple harassment reports." Real data on lighting, staff responsiveness, actual safety. Kinda like what Pieter Levels built with Hoodmaps but in a new category. Distribution is 400K+ member travel Facebook groups, and paying micro travel influencers to create content about it. Monetization is $30/month memberships + $500/month hotel safety certifications. The demand is screaming at you from every travel forum. Why I like the idea: - makes the world a better place - possible to vibe code - proven biz model - creators in the space open to sponsorship at reasonable prices - prob not a venture backable product but still opportunity for someone who is interested in cash flow - Probably gets acquired by Expedia or something down the road if you nail PMF. In today's episode of The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP) 🧃 (are you following?) this startup idea broken down with... 1 trend im paying attention to 1 news item im paying attention 1 startup framework I love 1 AI product I'm interested in using hope it gets the creative juices flowing and is 100% free all i ask is you don't just bookmark this tweet, but you go out and build i want to see you win. this is the greatest time in history to be building. happy building.

🇨🇦 Pierre Poilievre is SPOT ON: Canada should have DIRT CHEAP everything because we have the MOST DIRT! 💪 That viral clip wasn't meant to solve grocery inflation in 20 seconds—it was a sharp jab at the deeper policy failures Canada refuses to face. We're one of the most land-rich, resource-rich, food-producing nations on Earth. Vast farmland, energy abundance, yet Canadians are hit with some of the highest grocery price spikes in the G7. In 2025 alone, food prices are up ~4-5%, with families facing hundreds more at the checkout—beef up 17%, coffee surging, and overall groceries rising faster than in most advanced economies. This isn't because farmers forgot how to farm. It's policy failure: Carbon taxes layering costs on fuel, fertilizer, transport, refrigeration. Regulatory burdens slowing production. Governments treating food production like a problem, not a strength. Poilievre's point? Our natural abundance should insulate us from shocks—make us a buffer, not vulnerable. When a country that exports food and energy pays more than importers, something upstream is deliberately broken. That's why "Axe the Tax" hits home—it removes artificial costs hitting food at the farm gate AND your cart. Prices won't drop overnight, but they'll stop being inflated by design. While Mark Carney talks endless net zero and global agendas (even as the world moves on—major banks like JP Morgan, Citi, Goldman Sachs, Barclays, HSBC ditched the UN's Net-Zero Banking Alliance in 2025 amid backlash), Pierre focuses on GROWTH: Unleashing resources, building homes, cutting red tape for affordable life. The climate push is fading too—US probes into IRA green funds froze billions over fraud concerns, highlighting the grift. Who has YOUR best interests? Pierre Poilievre—common sense for lower prices, bigger paycheques, real Canadian prosperity!  #Poilievre #AxeTheTax #CanadaFirst

Commercial Fluoride Is A Thief...The Industrial Waste That Could Be Stealing Your Thyroid Health. Dr Ben Bikman, PhD The Thyroid Is Completely Dependent On Iodine & Fluoride Will Compete With Iodine & Block Its Absorption. Iodine Is The Backbone Of T3 & T4 Hormone Production. Fluoride is the problem... Fluoride is a neurotoxin & should have never been added to anything humans use or consume....not toothpaste, not mouthwash & definitely not drinking water. It is a chemical byproduct of aluminum, steel, cement, phosphate & nuclear weapons manufacturing. Before the public was convinced that adding fluoride to their water was for their own good, the metal & chemical industries had the problem of disposing of their highly toxic fluoride waste. Now, thanks to corporate lobbyists & the big lie sold to the public about supposed health benefits, the fluoride waste is dumped into our municipal water supplies & into our personal care products. Not only did this solve their toxic waste disposal problem but allowed them to sell it for a profit at a markup of 20,000 times. Iodine is the solution... Iodine is the body's master internal detoxifier of heavy metals, fluoride, chlorine, bromine & the radiation residue that builds up in tissues. Fluoride infiltrates where Iodine should be & harms thyroid function. Hypothyroid is caused by heavy metals poisoning because Iodine cannot uptake into the cells. Which is why Iodine supplementation & a healing protocol heals Hypothyroid permanently. 10 Life Transformative Benefits of Iodine... 1: Detox Mercury, Aluminum, Lead, Fluoride & Bromide 2: Shrinks Cysts, Fibroids & Tumors 3: Prevents Cancer & Parasitic Infections 4: Heals Candida & Fungal Infections 5: Relieves Menopause symptoms, hot flashes & acne 6: Breaks down scar tissue & adhesions 7: Lifts mood & brain fog 8: Heals Hypothyroidism 9: Stimulates hair growth & relieves cold intolerance 10: Heals immune system & reduces inflammation Our soil, water & food are mostly devoid of Iodine in this modern era. Even consuming large quantities of eggs, seafood & raw dairy may not be enough to reach optimal Iodine intake each day. Each of our cells has an iodine receptor site & if there is no available iodine to uptake into the cell, heavy metals will displace & occupy that site. The RDA dose of 150 mcg is only set to prevent a Thyroid Goiter, not the amount every cell needs for vibrant optimal health. Your thyroid gland alone needs about 6 mg of iodine per day for optimal function. The rest of the body uses an additional 4 mg each day. For optimal wellness, which is what we always strive for, you need approximately 10 mg of Iodine each day. Iodine also has required cofactors which are easy to acquire the trace amounts needed thru diet. Iodine needs selenium, zinc, copper, iron & methylated B. An easy way to reach optimal intake involves just a few drops of Lugol's 2% Liquid Iodine. Each drop delivers 2.5 mg of bioavailable Iodine. I have taken J. Crow brand for years, after using a natural protocol 8 yrs ago to heal Hypothyroid. 👇Fluoride Is A Neurotoxin👇 👇200+ Studies On Fluoride Harm & Toxicity👇 👇Fluoride Exposure Affects Thyroid👇 Speaker: Dr Benjamin Bikman, PhD

Silver trades in ONLY 2 markets: 1) Physical market 2) Paper market Let me explain what each is (and why you need to be aware of them): 1) Physical market: Actual bars and coins. You buy it, you own it, you store it. This moves based on real supply and demand. 2) Paper market: Futures contracts traded on the CME. You're not buying silver—you're buying a contract that says you have the right to silver in the future. This uses 10:1 leverage, meaning you only put up 10% of the actual value. Here's why you need to understand the difference: The exchange can change margin requirements anytime they want. They raised it from 10% to 20%, 30%, even 40% during the crash. When this happens, leveraged traders face two choices: add more money or sell. For last Friday: At $120, most traders were fully leveraged. When margins spiked, they couldn't add more cash—they were forced to liquidate. This created a cascade: 1) Forced selling pushed prices down 2) Trieggered more margin calls 3) Forced more selling The key difference between these markets: They can manipulate paper prices by adjusting margin requirements, but they can't create physical silver out of thin air. While paper crashed 35%, the physical premium in Shanghai hit all-time highs—people were paying $40+ above the paper price for actual metal. That's the game.

Discipline is overpriced. Incentives are underpriced. New Year's resolutions have a reported ∼91% failure rate. People who announce they're going to run a marathon for charity have an incredible success rate. Why does this gap exist? Incentives > Discipline. The person announcing publicly they're going to run a marathon for charity puts the Tyler Durden gun behind their head. The following forces act like a gun for the marathon runner: • Desire to be consistent • Sunk cost fallacy • Social shame • Being seen as a good person • A cause bigger than themself Discipline will almost always lose to incentives for good behaviour, and negative consequences for bad behaviour. Thought experiment: If the reward for completing new years resolutions was a billion dollars, and the consequence for failing was the death penalty -- what % completion would New Years resolutions have? If you make the reward and consequences big enough -- 100x will power is born. There's few people in history more resourceful than a crack cocaine addict sourcing their next hit. Here's some iconic Tyler Durden gun incentive schemes: 1. The Ticking Clock Elon Musk proposed to George Hotz the following to build vision system for Tesla auto pilot: $12 million payment if it was delivered the next day. For every month that passes where it's not delivered, the payment would be reduced by $1 million. If you had an incentive scheme where dollars disappear like a ticking clock each minute, would you need discipline? Procrastination would not be possible. 2. The Tattoo Mr. Beast and his friend was regularly skipping workouts so they created a bet: If one of them skipped a workout -- they had to get a tattoo of the other person. Guess how many workouts they skipped that year? Zero. ----- Things that usually outperform discipline: • Accountability • Publicly announced deadlines (YC demo day is a great example of this) • Bet money with friends on the activity • Raise money for charity • Coach to report into Discipline is a candle flame. Incentives and consequences are a nuclear reactor. Why rely solely on something that has an alleged 91% failure rate? You wouldn't do this for surgeons, condoms or airplanes. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again -- whilst expecting different results. Raymond K Hessel doesn't need discipline.

[Seoul Economic Daily] 260119 “Unmatched Fan Power” BTS JIN Proves His “World-Class” Presence 👩‍💼Numbers sometimes speak. Sometimes they reflect popularity, point to direction, and prove the flow of the times. But when those numbers are created by fans’ choices, their meaning becomes much deeper. The news we shared today clearly shows just how far those choices can reach. 🏆👩‍💼BTS JIN once again proved his global popularity by taking first place in the 2025 Heart Choice Awards in the Solo Artist Choice category. This award ceremony is the 2025 Heart Choice Awards, co-hosted by the pop fandom app Choeaedol and the global beauty brand Cell Fusion C. Under the concept “This year’s choice completed by hearts,” the most-loved artist of the year was selected through 100 percent fan voting. Voting took place from December 23, 2025, to January 4, 2026. When the results were revealed, fans’ attention immediately turned to JIN. In the final tally, JIN earned a total of 1,295 points, rising to first place in the Solo Artist category amid fierce competition. 👩‍💼This achievement carries more than the meaning of a simple ranking. At a time when both group and individual activities are receiving attention, it clearly shows that JIN continues to maintain top-tier influence as a solo artist as well. In particular, this win is even more meaningful because it was achieved solely through fans’ choices, not digital chart performance or broadcast exposure. 🏢👩‍💼Fans participated directly and created the result with their own hands. Within it are trust, affection, and the time spent waiting, all directed toward JIN. A reward advertisement for the first-place win will be revealed soon. On January 26, a congratulatory advertisement celebrating JIN’s first place will be displayed on the large digital screen at the COEX Superior Tower in Seoul. This advertisement is not just a promotional piece. It becomes a symbolic scene where global fans’ choices are realized as large-scale media in the heart of the city. It is the moment when fans’ hearts, which began online, expand into offline space. This achievement draws even more attention because another record overlapped around the same time. 🏆👩‍💼JIN also won the Male Popularity Award at the 40th Golden Disc Awards through fan voting. That vote ran from December 22, 2025, to January 5, 2026. Achieving meaningful results in two large-scale fan votes held almost simultaneously shows how organized and focused JIN’s fandom is. 👩‍💼This goes beyond simply having many fans. It is strong proof of a fandom that participates consistently and sees things through to the end. Through his solo activities, JIN has shown an expanded musical spectrum along with a more personal narrative. In the process, he has firmly established his own place not just as a member of a group, but as the artist JIN. This result confirms that his journey is being clearly delivered to fans as well. 👩‍💼Meanwhile, BTS, the group JIN belongs to, is preparing for a full comeback on March 20. As the members, each having added their own color and depth through solo activities, come together again as a team, attention is focused on what kind of new synergy they will show. In particular, anticipation is growing over how JIN’s expanded presence as a solo artist and the solid support of his fandom will blend into group activities. Something created by fans’ choices, and the fact that those choices continue. JIN’s latest win is not just a single trophy, but a reflection of the hearts of fans around the world who are still waiting for him and cheering him on. #JIN #방탄소년단진 방탄소년단 BIGHIT MUSIC BTS_official 서울경제신문 최애돌 Golden Disc #HeartChoiceAwards #Goldendiscawards

Under the concept “This year’s choice completed by hearts,” the most-loved artist of the year was selected through 100 percent fan voting. Voting took place from December 23, 2025, to January 4, 2026. When the results were revealed, fans’ attention immediately turned to JIN. In the final tally, JIN earned a total of 1,295 points, rising to first place in the Solo Artist category amid fierce competition. 👩‍💼This achievement carries more than the meaning of a simple ranking. At a time when both group and individual activities are receiving attention, it clearly shows that JIN continues to maintain top-tier influence as a solo artist as well. In particular, this win is even more meaningful because it was achieved solely through fans’ choices, not digital chart performance or broadcast exposure. 🏢👩‍💼Fans participated directly and created the result with their own hands. Within it are trust, affection, and the time spent waiting, all directed toward JIN. A reward advertisement for the first-place win will be revealed soon. On January 26, a congratulatory advertisement celebrating JIN’s first place will be displayed on the large digital screen at the COEX Superior Tower in Seoul. This advertisement is not just a promotional piece. It becomes a symbolic scene where global fans’ choices are realized as large-scale media in the heart of the city. It is the moment when fans’ hearts, which began online, expand into offline space. This achievement draws even more attention because another record overlapped around the same time. 🏆👩‍💼JIN also won the Male Popularity Award at the 40th Golden Disc Awards through fan voting. That vote ran from December 22, 2025, to January 5, 2026. Achieving meaningful results in two large-scale fan votes held almost simultaneously shows how organized and focused JIN’s fandom is. 👩‍💼This goes beyond simply having many fans. It is strong proof of a fandom that participates consistently and sees things through to the end. Through his solo activities, JIN has shown an expanded musical spectrum along with a more personal narrative. In the process, he has firmly established his own place not just as a member of a group, but as the artist JIN. This result confirms that his journey is being clearly delivered to fans as well. 👩‍💼Meanwhile, BTS, the group JIN belongs to, is preparing for a full comeback on March 20. As the members, each having added their own color and depth through solo activities, come together again as a team, attention is focused on what kind of new synergy they will show. In particular, anticipation is growing over how JIN’s expanded presence as a solo artist and the solid support of his fandom will blend into group activities. Something created by fans’ choices, and the fact that those choices continue. JIN’s latest win is not just a single trophy, but a reflection of the hearts of fans around the world who are still waiting for him and cheering him on. #JIN #방탄소년단진 방탄소년단 BIGHIT MUSIC BTS_official 서울경제신문 최애돌 Golden Disc #HeartChoiceAwards #Goldendiscawards

$TUD.v - Maybe the cheapest tier-1 project on the market. Summary of the TUDOR GOLD Interview • Project focus: Treaty Creek project in BC’s Golden Triangle (CANADA), a large gold-copper exploration and development asset. One of the top 10 biggest #GOLD discoveries worldwide the last 30 years. 2024 MRE: Indicated gold: 21.66 million ounces Inferred gold: 4.88 million ounces (AuEq ounces: 27.87 Moz Indicated + 6.03 Moz Inferred) • Production ambition: Targeting a potential future production profile of ~250,000 to 300,000 oz gold per year from a large-scale underground operation, subject to economics and permitting • Resource update plans: Updated Mineral Resource Estimate planned for January 2026, with a focus on defining higher-grade zones better suited for underground mining, targeting 5M+ oz at 2+ g/t • PEA timeline: Preliminary Economic Assessment expected in Q3 2026, outlining economics, costs, and a ~10,000 tpd underground mine concept • Underground access strategy: Permitting an underground decline to allow year-round drilling, materially lower drilling costs vs surface drilling, and improve drill density and data quality • Exploration upside: Ongoing exploration beyond Goldstorm, including targets along the Sulphurets Thrust Fault, with potential for an additional 5 to 10M oz #GOLD 😳 • Capital position: Approximately $26M raised to fund the resource update, PEA work, permitting, and continued exploration throughout 2026! • Peer comparison: Management highlights favorable grade continuity and geological style compared to some nearby Golden Triangle deposits, while noting more drilling is needed to fully confirm continuity • Infrastructure advantage: Existing road and power access in the Golden Triangle seen as a meaningful positive for future development economics ————————————— 2026 may be the re-rate year with all these triggers 😍 Damn I need to add more shares even though the stock has been lagging 2025, I believe the re-rate is imminent and I love the story. They have drilled a lot of new high grade zones since the last MRE and are continuing to do so, they are even focusing on the high grade zones to add meaningful ounces and grades, all to increase the value of the company in rapid speed. This new CEO / Team is the best thing that could have happen to Tudor. Joe Ovsenek is the CEO for both Tudor and P2 Gold right now. This team means business, ( $PGLD.v ran 10x 2025..) Joe was the CEO of Pretium Resources and led Newmonts Brucejack mine from a development-stage project into a producing mine. Brucejack is also in the Golden Triangle;) Key achievements: • Took Brucejack through feasibility, permitting, financing, and construction • Brought the mine into commercial production in 2017 • Helped build Brucejack into one of Canada’s highest-grade underground gold mines After that, Brucejack was later acquired along with Pretium (Newcrest in 2022, then Newmont after buying Newcrest). Note: Brucejack is currently ranked among the top 5 largest #gold mines in Canada, a monster mine with ~8 g/t Au average grade for the mined ore. This is a team that creates value and moves forward. I am expecting a perfect storm year with rising #Gold, value creating newsflow and re-rate priceaction. Bonus: #Tudor holds significant #silver and #copper in addition to its gold resource. Historically treated as by-product credits, at today’s silver and copper prices (especially silver) those contained metals now represent substantial additional in-ground metal value that enhances the overall project economics Indicated: 128.7 Moz silver, 2.87 Blb copper Inferred: 29.0 Moz silver, 0.503 Blb copper Total: 157.7 Moz silver, 3.37 Blb copper Final comments: Tudors mcap right now is a joke. The stock have performed poorly and was a huge disappointment 2025, I can’t see that happen 2026 with current leadership, triggers ahead, further rising metal prices and as they ramp up marketing along the way

* NEW FROM THE CHIRLA FILES * CHIRLA, the taxpayer-funded nonprofit that has been fomenting opposition to immigration enforcement in Los Angeles, owns a film production company that has produced a full-length feature. CHIRLA’s “beleaguered” Executive Director, Angelica Salas, is credited as the Executive Producer of the movie. Seems strange for a nonprofit, right? Pouring over its publicly available financial records, there appear to be a number of irregularities—though I do not have the expertise to form a definitive opinion about whether there was actual malfeasance. Here are the details. As background to CHIRLA’s film-making enterprise: In 2018, the organization produced a 20-minute short called “America, I Too,” which was shown at some film festivals. According to its website, this was “the second film in the series following the first short, ‘Know Your Rights’ created in 2007.” The video by that name that I found online is ten minutes long and has poor production values. CHIRLA incorporated its film company, called CHIRLA Liberty Film, LLC, in January 2019. It is entirely owned by the nonprofit, and its finances are consolidated in CHIRLA’s financial audits. The audit for the year ending June 30, 2019, lists film production costs in the amount of $242,413 and $28,764 from 2018, noting that they relate to the “various costs associated with the production of a film.” The audit, however, does not mention the existence of the film company. Strangely, CHIRLA’s Form 990 (the tax form filed by nonprofits with the IRS) for 2019 also does not reference either the company or the costs of film production. Every year beginning in 2019, CHIRLA’s audits state: “Upon completion of the film, the Organization will review its total revenue estimates from the film, which may result in a change in the rate of amortization and/or a write-down of the film production costs to fair value.” But confusingly, there are never any revenue estimates provided in any audit. The cost of the film production is simply listed as an asset each year. CHIRLA’s 2020 audit is the first to acknowledge the existence of the film company: “CHIRLA has teamed up with CHIRLA Liberty Films LLC to bring to life a dramatized film series about undocumented immigrants called Know Your Rights.” It’s a strange statement, given that the “Know Your Rights” video was produced in 2007. The 2020 audit lists $124,483 as an additional investment in the production of the unnamed film, and the Form 990 for that year lists a cumulative investment in film production of $366,896. Its financials for 2021 are essentially consistent, showing an additional $419,052 spent on the film, totaling $785,948. CHIRLA’s 2022 audit adds $151,658 in production costs, and the 2023 audit adds another $109,437, for a grand total of $1,047,043. Both audits state that the film still had not been completed as of June 30 of their respective years. But contradictorily, CHIRLA’s feature-length film—titled “America’s Family”—is listed on IMDb with a release date in 2022, and there are websites advertising showings in Los Angeles and Boston in June 2022—prior to June 30. Though CHIRLA’s Form 990s for 2020 and 2021 list a dollar value under “Investment in Liberty Film,” the Form 990s for 2022 and 2023 include no record of the investment in film production or acknowledgment of the wholly owned film company. After the initial showing of “America’s Family” in June 2022, the film had a number of additional showings in late 2023. In late 2024, CHIRLA presented the film for free or low cost at several local community centers in Mexico. It is now available for streaming on Amazon Prime. I know little about the film industry, but my suspicion is that the company may have spent more on these screenings than it earned in revenue. This brings me back to the auditor’s recurring statement: “Upon completion of the film, the Organization will review its total revenue estimates from the film, which may result in a change in the rate of amortization and/or a write-down of the film production costs to fair value.” Again, the audit does not include revenue estimates, so it is difficult to guess what this refers to. The $1 million spent on film production was considered an asset on financials. On what planet would this film break even? And what is the movie like? Judging from the trailer, it’s clichéd propaganda. It presents an idyllic life of a Spanish-speaking “American” family, suddenly torn apart by brutal ICE agents. You can judge its artistic merit for yourself. More important will be the judgment about the legality of CHIRLA’s financial filings.

Micron is going to $4,000 and here is why (Save this). For 25 years, DRAM prices did one thing, they went down. Memory makers overbuilt, supply overwhelmed demand, buyers had all the negotiating leverage and that commodity trap crushed memory stocks every single cycle. What you are watching right now is a complete structural break from that 25 year trend. DRAM contract prices are up 700% year over year and the reason is AI and it is not going away. HBM3 was 12 layers, HBM4 in production and shipping now to Nvidia's latest GPUs is 16 layers. Each generation consumes significantly more wafer to produce than the last, meaning supply structurally tightens as the technology advances. Memory was 8% of hyperscaler capex in 2023 but is 35% in 2026 and is projected to hit 48% in 2027. Nearly half of everything Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Meta spend on infrastructure will go to memory by next year. Going from the GB300 to the Vera Rubin 200 generation, GPU cost went up 57% while memory cost went up 435%. There are three companies on earth that can make DRAM at scale, Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron. Both Samsung and SK Hynix are converting capacity to HBM which means conventional DRAM supply tightens further for everything else, and Micron captures pricing on both sides. Micron guided to $33.5 billion for Q3 and they reported $41.46 billion, a $7.96 billion beat, the largest earnings beat in the company's history. Gross margins came in at 85% above the 81% they guided. For Q4, they are now guiding to $50 billion in revenue with ~86% gross margins and $31 EPS. At $112 EPS in FY2027, the pre-earnings consensus and a 35x multiple, that is a $3,920 stock but with Q4 guiding to $31 EPS alone in a single quarter, FY2027 estimates will be revised meaningfully higher. Deutsche Bank says the supply-demand gap worsens through all of 2027 and into 2028. The market still thinks this is a cyclical bounce but this is far from it. This is the first chapters of a multi year repricing of the most critical component in the AI economy and Micron is at the center of it. Follow me Melvin for more AI, semis, and the next big market themes.

Never forget the Day Brazil’s National Team Defeated Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal 6-2 Brazil’s 6-2 victory over Portugal in 2008 remains one of those unforgettable performances that has earned a lasting place in football history. In a friendly match surrounded by high expectations, Brazil dominated from beginning to end, delivering a masterclass of intensity, creativity, and clinical finishing. It was far more than a routine exhibition match—it was a powerful reminder that even during a period of transition, Brazil could still produce football of the highest level. Facing them was a Portugal side led by Cristiano Ronaldo, who was already establishing himself as one of the world’s elite players. However, even Ronaldo’s talent and explosiveness could not prevent Brazil from overwhelming the Portuguese defense. Brazil expertly exploited open spaces, combining quick passing with fluid attacking movements that repeatedly dismantled their opponents. The match also highlighted two national teams at different stages of development. Brazil, long associated with attacking flair and technical brilliance, showed that its footballing identity remained firmly intact. Portugal, despite boasting a gifted generation of players, was still searching for the consistency required to challenge the sport’s traditional powerhouses. To this day, the game is remembered as a perfect showcase of Brazilian jogo bonito at its finest. Everything clicked, the goals flowed naturally, and fans witnessed a true football spectacle. More than the final score itself, the match left a lasting impression of Brazil’s authority on the pitch, reinforcing why they have always been regarded as one of the greatest forces in world football.

Hailey Bieber sold Rhode to e.l.f. for $1 billion in three years. Charlotte Tilbury took 7 years to clear $1 billion. Byredo took 16. The Rhode deal closed August 5, 2025. Rhode shipped 10 products at the time of sale. The 8-K disclosure was unusually granular for beauty M&A. $212 million in net sales for the 12 months ending March 31, 2025. Cost of goods around 19% of revenue. Zero physical retail. Direct-to-consumer only. That COGS line is the part Wall Street kept rereading. Estée Lauder runs closer to 30%. Charlotte Tilbury's pre-acquisition EBITDA margin sat at 3.8%. Rhode was printing margin because the SKU count was small enough to manufacture at scale on each item. The marketing line is where the real story sits. Tribe Dynamics tracked Rhode at $248 million in Earned Media Value in 2024 alone. Ranked #1 in skincare globally. 367% year-over-year EMV growth. Rhode ran a quarter-billion-dollar marketing campaign and paid for none of it. Reported marketing efficiency at the time of the deal was around 9x. Every dollar in brought back nine. Beauty incumbents run that ratio in the 3-4x range. The product strategy was the discipline most celebrity brands miss. Rhode launched June 2022 with three SKUs: peptide lip treatment, peptide glazing fluid, barrier restore cream. $20 to $40 pricing. Roughly one new product per quarter. The full catalog still fit on a single page at acquisition. KKW Beauty carried about 50 SKUs at peak. Kylie Cosmetics ran past 100. Both had 10x the operational complexity and a fraction of the multiple. The $35 phone case with a slot for the peptide lip treatment was the giveaway. Wearable advertising. A daily product reminder visible to every person Hailey's customer met that day. e.l.f. paid $800M at close plus a $200M earnout tied to growth e.l.f. now controls. Sephora distribution rolled out fall 2025. International through e.l.f.'s existing channels. TIME just named Rhode one of the 100 most influential companies of 2026. The 8-K already named it $21 million in net sales per SKU. Hailey was the only marketing department Rhode ever needed. e.l.f. paid $1 billion for the headcount.
