M&A special situations: Crescent, SM, Devon

This Weekend’s Show explores a stark contrast in the resource sector: a "volatility blowout" in precious metals driven by shifting Fed expectations and Western speculation, set against a backdrop of tightening global energy supplies. Guests Brien Lundin and Dan Steffens dive into why current price drops in gold and silver may be a classic "snapback" opportunity, while the oil market faces a legitimate physical deficit that the forward curve has yet to fully price in.

• Segment 1 & 2 - Kicking off the show Brien Lundin, editor of the Gold Newsletter and host of the New Orleans Investment Conference, shares his insights on the current state of the precious metals market, explaining that recent volatility and sell-offs are largely driven by shifting expectations of Federal Reserve policy in response to an oil price spike and persistent inflation. Brien remains fundamentally bullish, viewing the downturn as a prime buying opportunity for high-quality major and junior mining stocks, particularly as the sector remains well-capitalized for extensive exploration programs in 2026.
