In the first segment of this week's long-form episode, we welcome in Eric Basmajian of EPB Research. Eric is a student of the business cycle so it was fitting to speak with him the day the market took peak notice into ADP Payrolls numbers. After crushing expectations, the bond market and the stock market sold off. I talk with Eric about the bond market clearly being ill-supportive of the current valuations of the stock market in the US and what it all means to our current business cycle.
We then turn to McEwen Mining with Executive Chairman Rob McEwen and VP of McEwen Copper Michael Meding. Much of the conversation is focused on the Los Azules copper project in San Juan Province of Argentina. The company recently published a PEA for the project which highlights a very large project, both in scale and economics. In fact, it might be the biggest project Rob McEwen has ever taken on. I talk with both individuals about the company's gold projects setting with Los Azules also on the books, their two important shareholders in McEwen Copper, and how the business landscape in the copper space is much different now than the gold space may have ever been.
