David Bastian: GEN Restaurant Group (GENK), Coal, and Retailers Mar 29, 2024

Show notes

David Bastian of Kingdom Capital is BACK for another podcast. This time we're diving deep into GEN Restaurant Group (GENK).

DISCLOSURE: I/WE AND DAVID OWN SHARES AS OF THIS PODCAST.

We are free to change our minds and trade in/out of this position after the podcast is released.

I'll say it again, none of this is investment advice. Do your own work. Don't trust two randoms with a microphone.

I think it's a unique situation that reminds me of Kura Sushi (KRUS), which went from $14 to $120 in a few years.

I hope you enjoy the podcast.

Finally, a big thanks to the following sponsors for making the podcast a reality.

Mitimco

This episode is brought to you by MIT Investment Management Company, also known as MITIMCo, the investment office of MIT. Each year, MITIMCo invests in a handful of new emerging managers who it believes can earn exceptional long-term returns in support of MIT's mission. To help the emerging manager community more broadly, they created ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠emergingmanagers.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a website for emerging manager stockpickers.

For those looking to start a stock-picking fund or just looking to learn about how others have done it, I highly recommend the site. You'll find essays and interviews by successful emerging managers, service providers used by MIT's own managers, essays MITIMCo has written for emerging managers and more!

Instead of weeks and months, you can learn a new industry or company in hours, and all from those that know it best.

I spend nearly all my time reading Tegus calls on existing holdings and new ideas. And I know you will too. So if you’re interested, head on over to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tegus.co/valuehive⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for a free trial to see for yourself.

Alberto Alvarez: Uranium, Ero Copper, and PGMs Mar 22, 2024

Show notes

Alberto is one of the most underfollowed accounts on Twitter/X. He provides tremendous value for generalist investors willing to hunt in commodity markets.

This week, Alberto dove deep into uranium assets, Ero Copper, and the bull case for Platinum Group Metals (PGMs).

I'm a huge fan of Alberto's Substack, which you can read here: https://albertoag.substack.com/

Auke Hoekstra: The Bull Case For Renewables Mar 08, 2024

Show notes

I loved this conversation for a few reasons. One, Auke is an incredibly smart person. You'll pick that up quickly. Two, I don't agree with everything Auke believes, which makes for a fascinating conversation.

Auke is a staunch renewable energy advocate. I'm on the fence. I think we can live somewhere in between where fossil fuels play their role, and if it is economical and just as good, renewables should be there too.

We spend almost 90 minutes discussing:

The bull case for renewable energy
Mythbusting popular renewable bear cases
Copper versus Aluminum
Fixing The Electricity Grid

And more. If you're interested in energy, renewables, or electrification metals, you will love this episode.

Left Field Investing: Acne, Fungus, and Prison Stocks Mar 01, 2024

Show notes

I'm excited to share my conversation with Left Field Investing. Left Field is quickly becoming one of my favorite Substack research accounts.

He has a knack for finding off-the-beaten-path small-to-micro cap ideas that nobody else is writing about.

Another reason I love this guy is he has a unique, non-investment background. In other words, he cut his teeth the old school way, teaching himself the game without a silver spoon.

John Swallow: Building A Different Mining Company (Idaho Strategic) Feb 23, 2024

Show notes

I'm very excited to share my conversation with John Swallow, CEO of Idaho Strategic Resources (IDR).

IDR is a small cap gold producer that does things differently. They generate cash flow. Then use that cash flow to explore their massive land package for gold and rare earth elements (REEs).

John is a true owner operator. Not only is he the CEO, he owns a lot of the company's stock, barely makes more than the average mining geologist on his team, and has a long-term ownership mindset.

Most junior mining companies are promotional gimmicks with a balance sheet and a story. IDR is different. They generate real cash flows and fund their business not on promises, but on results.

DISCLOSURE: I AM A SHAREHOLDER IN IDR AS OF THIS RECORDING. NONE OF THIS IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. DO YOUR OWN WORK. MAYBE YOU COME TO THE SAME CONCLUSIONS AS I DID. MAYBE NOT. WHO CARES.

Regardless of what you think of mining stocks, you will appreciate John's honest approach to his life's calling.

I hope you enjoy.

Ernest Scheyder: The War Below (Lithium, Copper, and Critical Minerals) Feb 16, 2024

Show notes

I'm excited to share my conversation with Ernset Scheyder. Ernest is a writer for Reuters and recently authored the book "The War Below: Lithium, Copper, And The Global Battle To Power Our Lives."

I just got my copy in the mail and can't wait to read it.

During the podcast, I spend an hour dissecting Ernest's writing habits/strategies, early background as a journalist, and what led him to writing this book.

From there, we explore the world of critical minerals from a human perspective and get insights that didn't make it into the book, but were just as interesting.

If you enjoyed this podcast then you should buy the book (link here). I don't get paid for it. I just think Ernest is doing great work that should be appreciated and the topic is very important to me.

Aaron Edelheit: Dumpster Diving in Cannabis Feb 09, 2024

Show notes

I hope you guys enjoy my podcast with Aaron Edelheit on the Cannabis industry.

I had Aaron on the podcast two years ago to dive deep into the cannabis space. Since then, the industry has done nothing but incinerate investor capital.

And that's precisely why I wanted to interview Aaron. I love his transparency, humility, and ability to objectively assess where/what he got wrong, and how he plans on fixing his cannabis investing process in 2024.

Thanks again to Aaron for coming back on the show. I had a blast!

Rebecca Hunter: Life As A Uranium Explorer Feb 02, 2024

Show notes

Please enjoy my conversation with Rebecca Hunter, VP of Exploration at Forum Energy Metals $FMC.V.

Rebecca has spent her life exploring the world for commodities, specifically uranium.

This week, we get a boots-on-the-ground view of what it's like to explore for uranium. We discuss everything that goes into it, including geophysics, drilling, capital allocation, where to drill, and what red flags Rebecca sees in other junior explorer companies.

Finally, we end the conversation discussing the uranium market, it's supply/demand imbalance, and what higher prices mean for the future of yellow cake.

If you enjoyed this episode, please follow Rebecca on Twitter @UraniumHuntress.

Also, please note that I do not own shares in $FMC.V. This podcast is for entertainment/educational purposes only. Please do you own work before investing in any security.

Peter Pham: Inversion Investing Jan 26, 2024

Show notes

I hope you enjoy this podcast with Peter Pham of Inversion Investor. Peter is one of the most unique investors I've come across.

The way he thinks about the world, markets, trades, and wisdom is unlike anything I've seen before in finance.

This is definitely a different type of conversation. We cover a ton of ground, spanning myriad topics and thousands of years of history.

I hope you enjoy it.
