Mining legend and CEO of McEwen Mining, Rob McEwen talks about the recent surge in gold stocks and why we are still in the early innings of a long-term bull market.   McEwen then talks about his early years in the mining industry.  This includes death threats, class action lawsuits, and a four year strike which led to the creation of Goldcorp - one of the biggest gold producers in the world.   McEwen is pioneer in the mining industry.  And McEwen Mining is one of the few shareholder-friendly companies in the industry that does not use leverage, pays a solid dividend and has huge insider ownership.  That's why he's made his early investors a fortune in the mining industry over the past 40 years.

Cactus Schroeder, founder of Chisholm Exploration and oil veteran who has been drilling wells in Texas for more than 40-years, shares his thoughts about the current state of the oil market and where he believes prices are headed over the next few years. He also gives us an insider perspective on how much drilling is actually taking place in the Eagle Ford and Permian Basin right now...  The new technologies companies are using to lower their cost of production... And which large-cap companies are aggressively acquiring shale assets in Texas. Cactus then talks about the "real" breakeven price for shale producers - since it's a lot higher than the $50 a barrel breakeven price that is often talked about in the media.  He sees more pain specifically for oil services companies.  But also believes we could see plenty of more bankruptcies if oil prices remain below $55 a barrel.

Jeff Macke, former hedge fund manager and market expert, does not hold back in this special 25-minute interview.  He talks about how malls will never be extinct, why brick and mortar's have a big advantage over Amazon, and why retailers should stop wasting money repurchasing their shares.     Jeff also breaks down the Federal Reserve and how this institution has zero transparency.  This makes it incredibly difficult to trade stocks since the opinions coming from the 17 board members are almost always inconsistent.    Finally, Jeff talks about his future plans after being host of Yahoo! Finance.  This includes reinventing the hedge fund industry.  Jeff says he may look to open up his own fund with a much better fee structure and much better returns.  But he's not promising anything-(although it does sound like Jeff is planning to open up a new fund in the near-term).  Jeff is one of the few analysts in the media who speaks his mind.  He doesn't care who he offends and always has conviction in every stock or sector he recommends.    So whether you agree with Jeff or not... you will know exactly where he stands on many issues after listening to this special interview.
