"This week's winners and losers in my investment portfolio This week in my investment portfolio we saw some interesting twists and turns. Antero Resources boasted its best performance in years with a spectacular 15.40% rise. In contrast the cryptocurrency Avalanche experienced a significant downturn dropping by 12.74%. It was quite fascinating to observe the divergent paths of crypto-related investments. While cryptocurrencies struggled Coinbase managed to buck the trend with an 11.99% increase. Gold prices may have dipped but Newmont's robust quarterly figures painted a different picture with"

"This is the time to invest in natural gas As a shareholder of Antero Resources (NYSE: $AR) a natural gas and NGL (natural gas liquids) producer I see tremendous potential. Operational Efficiency and Capital Efficiency: Antero Resources has consistently improved its drilling and completion efficiencies significantly reducing cycle times per pad.

"Gold Is a Price Story. Silver Is an Availability Story. For months Ive been focusing almost exclusively on the silver swap not the gold swap. The reason is simple: you can always buy gold while for silver there are growing doubts about whether physical metal can always be sourced. After yesterdays post someone asked why I never apply the same framework to gold. So lets do exactly that. The same calculation can indeed be made for gold. There is also a 1-year gold swap. In the chart both gold and silver swaps are shown adjusted for interest rates. The white line represents gold the blue line"

"$FRO is up more than 7% today. And honestly it still feels disappointing. YTD the stock is up a bit over 10%. Now think about what has actually changed since year-end. The U.S. has massively stepped up pressure on Venezuela including the forced removal of Maduro. This matters because roughly a quarter of the global tanker fleet is now part of the shadow fleet sailing without insurance and without transponders. In practice only three countries really depend on this system: Venezuela Iran and Russia. Venezuela will almost certainly drop out. Iran could be next as U.S. rhetoric is clearly"

"Saab is taking off. And if the F-35 has a hidden kill switch this is only the beginning. This weekend I watched three episodes of Argos a Dutch investigative journalism program. They investigated whether the F-35 contains some form of hidden kill switch. The Dutch state secretary literally called it bullshit. But the former head of French military intelligence says he believes this is real. My take is simpler: you dont need a physical button. The source code is secret and such a kill switch could easily be embedded in software. Three fascinating episodes. If you speak Dutch: highly"

"This has absolutely nothing to do with price manipulation. If youre a cowboy borrowing $95 for every $5 of your own capital to speculate in the silver market prices shoot up and your equity explodes. With every price increase you borrow even more to max out leverage. When volatility rises CME raises margin requirements because risk has gone up. If youre then forced to sell because you literally have no room left thats not manipulation. Thats simply too many people treating the silver market like a casino. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018978351440961902"

It represents physical silver you can buy but because its fully backed by real metal Sprott cant expand it quickly so it sometimes trades at a premium and sometimes at a discount. Being able to buy physical silver through Sprott at a 2.7% discount is bizarre. Even more bizarre is that last week the discount briefly moved above 10%. That has only happened during the darkest day of the COVID crash. And in 2011/2012 during the previous silver bull market Sprott traded at a hefty premium"

"#UBER is getting aggressive with buybacks as shown in the Q4 results. Rightfully so. The stock has never been this cheap. Trailing free cash flow yield: 6.4% Not based on forecasts. Based on the last four quarters. Free cash flow will grow double digits in the coming years. 🚀 $UBER's free cash flow is skyrocketing and its free cash flow yield is a straight line from the bottom left to the top right. It's fascinating how this market splits stocks into two extremes: some are priced so high that I doubt they'll generate any returns over the next https://t.co/OtEEnllqum 🚀 $UBER's free cash flow"

"In my view there are two kinds of silver in COMEX vaults. First silver that belongs to someone who already has a specific destination for it for example an ETF or a client at a large bank using COMEX as a storage location. I dont care about that data at all. The only thing that interests me is the silver backing the futures market because thats what reflects real supply and demand.

"Well see in the coming days whether the amount of silver backing futures contracts starts to increase. I dont expect it but well see. I know that when silver moves from eligible to registered it doesnt physically move an inch. But if the metal is tied up in an ETF or held for a large bank client it wont be made available to back futures. In a few hours well know whether the number of ounces tied to a silver contract has increased or decreased. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021605068256993300 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021605068256993300"
