(BTBT), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

The European Union (EU) is preparing to enforce strict new rules targeting money laundering, with major implications for cryptocurrencies. Starting in 2027, privacy-focused digital currencies and anonymous crypto accounts will no longer be allowed under the bloc’s updated anti-money laundering regulations.

This is the latest step in the EU’s ongoing effort to bring the crypto sector in line with traditional financial regulations and eliminate loopholes that could be exploited for illegal activity.

The upcoming Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR) will apply to banks, financial institutions, and crypto service providers. These entities will be required to stop offering anonymous accounts or supporting privacy-enhancing tokens like Monero. According to AMLR’s Article 79, these types of accounts and coins are no longer permissible.

The AMLR is just one part of a larger framework that also covers other financial services and instruments. It targets anonymous financial products across the board, from bank accounts and payment services to passbooks, safety deposit boxes, and crypto wallets that hide user identities. The EU is aiming to close any loopholes that may allow illicit financial activity to continue undetected.

Vyara Savova, a senior policy expert at the European Crypto Initiative (EUCI), noted that while the main regulations are finalized, the specific implementation details are still being worked out. These will come through what are known as delegated and implementing acts, which are handled by the EU Banking Authority. “The EUCI continues to play a role in shaping these final elements by contributing to public consultations,” she added.

While some of the practical aspects are still in development, Savova emphasized that the general direction is already set. Crypto businesses that fall under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) should begin adjusting their internal systems and compliance protocols to align with the upcoming changes.

One of the key enforcement tools under the framework is the direct supervision of certain crypto service providers, especially those active in at least six EU countries. AMLA, the new authority in charge of enforcing these rules, plans to begin with a selection of 40 companies, ensuring representation from every member state. This selection process will kick off on July 1, 2027.

To qualify for direct oversight, a company must meet specific size requirements. These include having at least 20,000 clients in a member state or handling over €50 million ($56 million) in transactions. Additionally, any crypto transaction above €1,000 ($1,136) will trigger mandatory checks to verify customer identity.

Crypto industry players like Bit Digital Inc. (NASDAQ: BTBT) will be tracking the regulatory changes in major crypto markets like the EU and the U.S. to see how they reshape the trajectory of the industry.

Bit Digital Inc. (BTBT), closed Thursday's trading session at $2.08, up 3.4826%, on 13,579,595 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 322,930 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $1.69/$5.74.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are crucial for cutting pollution and fighting climate change. But as more drivers switch to EVs, a new challenge arises: What happens if everyone charges their cars at the same time? A recent study suggests a simple solution; small financial rewards could prevent power grid overloads and keep energy flowing smoothly.

When EV owners plug in during peak hours (like evenings when people cook, watch TV, or use lights), it strains power grids. If millions of EVs charge simultaneously, utilities might struggle to meet demand, risking blackouts or costly grid upgrades. The key is shifting charging to off-peak times, such as late nights when electricity use drops.

To find solutions, researchers in Calgary ran a trial with EV owners. They split participants into three groups:

  1. One group received 3.5 cents per kilowatt-hour (about $10/month) to charge between 10 pm and 6 am.
  2. Another group got educational messages about how off-peak charging helps reduce grid stress and pollution.
  3. A control group had no incentives or information.

After a year, the findings were clear:

  • Money motivated change: The cash-reward group cut peak-hour charging by 50%, shifting mostly to late nights.
  • Information alone failed: The education group showed no real change.
  • Habits returned: When rewards stopped, people reverted to old charging patterns.

Kenneth Gillingham, an economist at Yale, explained that even tiny incentives “can nudge people toward better behaviors.” Meanwhile, Andrea La Nauze, an energy expert from Deakin University, noted that rewards could also help during sunny days when solar power floods the grid. Encouraging midday charging (when solar energy is plentiful) could further balance demand.

Humans respond to immediate benefits. Saving $10 monthly might seem minor, but it creates a sense of reward for doing something positive. Education, while well-meaning, often isn’t enough to override convenience. As one Calgary participant said, “If I’m getting a discount, I’ll wait. Otherwise, why bother?”

Some power companies see the value. Con Edison in New York offers discounts for off-peak EV charging, and similar programs exist in California and Texas. These efforts not only prevent grid strain but could also lower costs for all customers by reducing the need for expensive infrastructure upgrades.

As EV sales grow, smart incentives will become essential. Rewards don’t need to be large, just enough to make a difference. Combined with grid improvements and renewable energy, small perks could ensure our transition to electric cars remains sustainable.

In the end, protecting the grid from EV surges isn’t about asking people to sacrifice. It’s about giving them a little reason to help, and that might be all it takes. Industry actors like Lucid Motors (NASDAQ: LCID) and other manufacturers may have to complement the efforts of policymakers in finding ways to increase EV uptake without putting grids under excessive strain.

Lucid Motors (LCID), closed Thursday's trading session at $2.31, up 2.6667%, on 77,248,509 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 1,179,957 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $1.93/$4.43.

A recent Canadian study focused on marijuana use among young adults offers insights into which behaviors and personal characteristics are linked to higher risks of marijuana-related problems.

While not all marijuana use results in negative outcomes, around 5% of young users in Canada may experience addiction or other harmful effects. What separates those who face issues from those who do not often comes down to how and why marijuana is used.

The study found that certain habits were linked to a higher risk of problems. These included using marijuana when alone, using it frequently throughout the week, consuming large amounts at once, or turning to it as a way to escape from stress or negative emotions. People who used marijuana to make everyday activities more enjoyable or to explore new experiences also tended to report more issues.

These findings line up with other research, especially the idea that frequent use and using alone are warning signs.

The study also found that not all groups of young adults face the same level of risk. Young people who identify as queer, lesbian, bisexual, gay, or otherwise sexually diverse reported more frequent and riskier patterns of marijuana use than their heterosexual peers. They were about three times more likely to fall into these higher-risk categories.

This increased risk was not attributed to sexual identity itself but to the elevated stress levels reported by these groups. Although higher rates of depression and anxiety were also noted among sexually diverse youth, general stress, particularly feelings of being overwhelmed or out of control, was the strongest predictor of problematic marijuana use. These stressors go beyond those caused by discrimination and point to broader life challenges that disproportionately affect marginalized groups.

This connects to a larger concept known as “minority stress”— the added stress that comes from being marginalized. Discrimination, exclusion, and internalized negativity can take a toll, and marijuana can become a way to cope.

With rising hostility toward LGBTQ+ communities in both the U.S. and Canada, the stress-related gaps in marijuana use may grow wider, according to the researchers.

Access to mental health care remains another barrier. Many sexually diverse youths face obstacles when trying to find safe, inclusive, and effective support services. As a result, marijuana may become a primary coping tool in the absence of better alternatives.

The study emphasizes the importance of making low-risk marijuana use strategies accessible, such as limiting frequency, avoiding solitary use, reducing quantities, and developing healthier coping mechanisms. However, these strategies are only effective if young people, especially those from marginalized backgrounds, have real access to supportive resources.

As the cannabis industry continues to grow and create numerous opportunities for other companies like Innovative Industrial Properties Inc. (NYSE: IIPR) exploiting opportunities within the marijuana ecosystem, more studies will be required to understand the drivers behind the use of this substance and how those who develop unhealthy usage habits can be helped.

AI is already transforming how we work, and many jobs will eventually be automated. But instead of resisting change or clinging to old methods, it's time to shift focus. Competing with machines on speed or data processing is a losing battle. The real advantage lies in being more human, not more robotic. If you're launching a business today, your edge won't come from technical knowledge alone. It'll come from the qualities AI can't replicate—your emotional intelligence, communication skills, and ability to lead and connect with others. These human traits matter now more than ever.

Brera Holdings PLC (NASDAQ: BREA) is an Ireland-based, international holding company focused on expanding its global portfolio of men’s and women’s sports clubs through a multi-club ownership approach. The company capitalizes on opportunities to earn tournament prizes, secure sponsorships, collect transfer fees, provide professional sports consulting services, and enhance the valuation of its clubs.

Brera Holdings builds on the legacy of Brera FC, an international football club (referred to as soccer in the U.S.), that it acquired in July 2022. Established in 2000 and based in Milan, Italy, Brera FC has distinguished itself by cultivating an alternative football legacy. In October 2024, the Internet Marketing Association awarded Brera FC with the Social Impact Through Soccer accolade at its IMPACT 5050 Conference, recognizing the club’s global perspective and positive contributions to society.

The company’s growth strategy focuses on unlocking value from undervalued sports clubs and talent, driving innovation, and generating socially impactful outcomes. Brera Holdings is actively expanding its Global Sports Group, acquiring professional football and other sports clubs in emerging markets such as Africa, Asia, and Europe.

By targeting top-division teams in less mainstream markets, Brera Holdings aims to strengthen its competitive position in regional tournaments, including those organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). These acquisitions are expected to enhance sponsorship revenues and create new growth opportunities.

Leveraging its expertise in capital raising and revenue generation, Brera Holdings also anticipates growing demand for its consulting services, providing advisory support to sports clubs, associations, investors, and others. Brera Holdings is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with additional offices in Milan, Italy.

Sporting Assets

Brera Holdings continues to grow its global sports portfolio with a series of strategic acquisitions and innovations, including the FENIX Trophy Tournament, a pan-European, non-professional football competition. Launched in September 2021 and organized by Brera FC, the tournament has been recognized by UEFA and described by BBC Sport as “the Champions League for amateurs.” In 2023, Brera FC hosted the tournament’s finals at Milan’s iconic San Siro Stadium.

In March 2023, Brera Holdings expanded into Africa by establishing Brera Tchumene FC in Mozambique. Starting in the country’s Second Division League, the team quickly earned promotion to Moçambola, Mozambique’s First Division League, by November 2023.

In April 2023, Brera Holdings further strengthened its European presence by acquiring a 90% stake in Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev, a first-division football team in North Macedonia. This acquisition provides access to two major UEFA competitions, solidifying the company’s position in European football.

Brera Holdings’ reach extends beyond football. In July 2023, it acquired majority ownership of UYBA Volley, an Italian Serie A1 women’s professional volleyball team, demonstrating its commitment to diversifying within top-tier sports.

In September 2023, Brera Holdings entered the Mongolian football market by acquiring Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a Mongolian National Premier League team. For the 2024 season, the club was rebranded as Brera Ilch FC, further expanding Brera’s global footprint.

In January 2024, Brera Holdings initiated a proactive search for an Italian Serie B football club, aligning with its goal of bringing multi-club ownership opportunities to mass investors through its Nasdaq-listed shares.

In February 2024, the Brera Holdings Advisory Board was established with MLS founder and World Cup director Alan Rothenberg, luxury lifestyle executive Massimo Ferragamo, sports business leaders Paul Tosetti and Marshall Geller, and Italian football icon Giuseppe Rossi.

In June 2024, the North Macedonian women’s football club Tiverija Strumica officially became part of the Brera family with the establishment of a joint-stock company controlled by Brera Holdings called Women’s Football Club Tiverija Brera AD Strumica (“Brera Tiverija”). Brera Tiverija is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brera Strumica FC.

In September 2024 Brera announced that it signed an exclusive letter of intent to acquire an Italian Serie B club (the “LOI” and the “Club”). According to a CFA report published in June 2024, this expected strategic transaction, for an estimated purchase price of $21.6 million, would add first-year annual revenue of $10.8 million to Brera, and that revenue would likely increase by 25% each year for the next three years. The company’s capital valuation, projected the report, would also experience significant appreciation during this period.

In October 2024, Brera was recognized with the 2024 Social Impact Through Soccer Award at IMPACT 5050, an annual event honoring leaders and innovators who significantly impact their industries and communities. This is the second time Brera has won the award.

Market Opportunity

A report from IMARC Group, a global management consulting firm, reveals that the international football market generated approximately $3.3 billion in revenue in 2023, with projections to grow to $4.6 billion by 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%. Key drivers behind this growth include advancements in digitization, increasing sponsorship and partnership deals between brands and clubs, the rising interest in women’s professional soccer leagues, and the expansion of the e-sports and gaming sector.

In particular, Serie B Italian football clubs seem to present exceptionally attractive investment opportunities. As of September 2024, more than half of these clubs had appreciated between 80-100% in total market value, post-purchase.

As the world’s most-watched and most-played sport, soccer drives significant demand for football-related products and services, contributing to market growth. Broadcasting rights, sponsorships, and endorsement deals are also major revenue sources for clubs and organizations, with an expanding global fanbase generating new opportunities for financial growth, according to the report.

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF).

ESGold has identified a large-scale geophysical anomaly in the southwest zone of its Montauban Project in Quebec, showing strong conductivity and magnetic signals typical of VMS (volcanogenic massive sulfide) systems.

A new 3D geological model is being developed, integrating historical and modern geophysical data, and an expanded Ambient Noise Tomography ("ANT") survey will help define the anomaly's structure and depth.

The company continues to advance toward near-term production while evaluating district-scale exploration potential and offers a relatively affordable way for investors to gain gold exposure compared to purchasing bullion at high prices.

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) , a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production, has reported the identification of a significant geophysical anomaly in the southwest portion of its Montauban Project in Quebec. According to a company press release, internal analysis of historical VTEM ( Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic ) survey data and drill records has highlighted this area as a high-priority exploration target ( https://ibn.fm/1esM9 ).

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) , a pre-production gold and silver company advancing its fully permitted Montauban Project in Quebec, will present at the Metals Investor Forum in Vancouver on May 9, 2025. The company was invited by Silver Stock Investor author Peter Krauth, who recognized ESGold as a high-potential junior nearing production.

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production. With established infrastructure in place and a significant gold-silver resource, the company is uniquely positioned to generate near-term cash flow while unlocking the full potential of its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec—one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world.

ESGold is building a foundation for long-term growth through a dual-track strategy: cash-flow generation from tailings reprocessing to fund district-scale exploration.

The Montauban site, which operated as a mine for over 80 years, is now undergoing its first-ever systematic exploration program to determine just how large the remaining deposit may be. Near-term cash flow from tailings reprocessing will be used to fund exploration, with the goal of increasing the resource base and uncovering new discoveries across the expansive land package.

ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that turns legacy mine sites into revenue generating assets while setting a new industry benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The recent completion of a C$3.4M financing has enabled ESGold to initiate the final construction phase of its mill circuit—moving the company decisively toward production of gold and silver in Q3 2025.

Montauban Gold-Silver Project: Production Imminent

Located approximately 80 kilometers west of Quebec City, the Montauban Project is a past-producing gold-silver mine with surface and underground mineralization and over 900,000 tonnes of historical tailings. ESGold has invested over C$15 million to date, building out roads, power access, and a 16,000 sq. ft. processing facility. The company recently completed a C$3.4M financing to begin final construction of the mill circuit.

The company is fully permitted to enter into production that is expected to commence in Q3 2025 with a capacity of 500 tonnes per day, scaling to 1,000 tpd. An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is currently underway to reflect all-time high gold prices and the anticipated upside from the near-surface resource.

Parallels Between Broken Hill & Montauban

Broken Hill, discovered in 1883 in Australia, became the world’s largest source of silver, lead, and zinc—producing over $100 billion worth of metals. What made it unique was that the richest mineral zones were hidden deep underground in a twisted, boomerang-like shape, and it took decades to fully understand just how large the deposit really was.

Geologists now believe ESGold’s Montauban Project in Quebec may share similar traits. Like Broken Hill, it contains high-grade silver, lead, and zinc, along with gold—and sits within the same type of geological system known to host large, high-value mineral deposits. The rock formations, mineral assemblages, and structural complexity all suggest that Montauban could be hiding much more than what’s been historically uncovered. Academic studies now support this possible geological parallel, pointing to further evidence suggesting Montauban was formed under similar conditions as Broken Hill.

Exploration Upside

With production on the horizon, ESGold is advancing a major exploration campaign. Montauban has never undergone systematic modern exploration.

The company is currently completing a large-scale Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey—a powerful 3D imaging technology that will define the size, shape, and continuity of the mineralized system. ANT is already showing strong results, with imaging going beyond the original 400m depth target and now expected to exceed 800m. This cutting-edge technology has the potential to reveal the full extent of the anomaly for the first time in Montauban’s 110-year history.

Scalable, Replicable, Clean Mining

Montauban is also part of a broader vision. Across Canada and globally, there are hundreds of orphaned or legacy mine sites that remain unrehabilitated despite containing valuable residual metals in tailings. Quebec alone is home to more than 259 of these sites, highlighting the scale of the opportunity. ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that transforms legacy sites into productive assets while setting a new benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The company has also performed testing that utilizes Dundee Sustainable Technologies’ CLEVR Process™, a proprietary non-cyanide extraction method that achieved 90.9% gold recovery in lab testing. This clean processing approach remains a valuable and scalable asset supporting ESGold’s near-term production and exploration growth strategy.

As a complement to its core mining operations, ESGold is developing clean technology solutions through a joint venture with DMCMS Inc. This initiative includes a polymer division that manufactures environmentally friendly products such as road stabilizers, dust suppressants, and other industrial blends—expanding the company’s sustainable commercial footprint.

Market Opportunity

ESGold is operating in a unique and specialized segment of the mining industry—reprocessing and revitalizing legacy mine sites. The Montauban Project offers both near-term cash flow and long-term growth potential by converting tailings into revenue while systematically exploring for additional high-value mineral endowments. The company’s established infrastructure, full permitting, and reclamation approvals reduce development risk and enhance execution timelines.

The broader green mining market is projected to reach $15.92 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research. This growth is being driven by increased demand for responsible extraction methods, ESG-aligned practices, and critical mineral security. With construction underway at its fully permitted Montauban site—and exploration advancing along a Broken Hill-type geological model—ESGold is well positioned to emerge as Canada’s next premier gold and silver producer.

Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlightFathom Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET) .

The start of this week saw prices for gold futures increase as safe haven demand by investors, particularly from China, grows. The price of silver also increased, with a weaker dollar index favoring the precious metals markets. May silver prices rose to $32.37 while June gold prices hit $3324.60. An analyst from Saxo Bank argues that gold's strong retail demand from consumers in China is keeping the precious metal afloat, despite Western speculators' increased selling. This, the analyst notes, suggests that concern among Chinese citizens about the health of the country's economy seems to be increasing. U.S. economic data, including the employment trends index, the ISM report on business services, and U.S. services PMI, is also due for release in a couple of days. Last month's jobs report showed stronger than expected job growth, with nonfarm payrolls increasing to 177,000. The rate of unemployment remains at 4.2%, which indicates that the labor market remains stable. On the other hand, the participation rate in the labor force rose to 62.6%. Meanwhile, prices for Nymex crude oil futures are lower, trading at roughly $57.75 per barrel. Reports show that OPEC has agreed to increase joint production of crude oil come next month. The upward trajectory manifesting in the market for gold gives companies like Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET) an enhanced opportunity to bolster shareholder value over the coming years.

Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET) operates as a mineral exploration company focusing on the identification, acquisition, and advancement of mineral properties. With full 100% ownership of over 1,000 square kilometers of gold and copper projects strategically positioned in premier low-cost mining jurisdictions, Torr is poised for substantial returns across various promising regions.

Situated within British Columbia’s prime copper-producing belt, the 140-square-kilometer Kolos Copper-Gold Project exhibits Nicola Belt geology similar to notable porphyry mines, including Copper Mountain and Highland Valley, respectively situated 106 kilometers to the south and 30 kilometers to the northwest.

With field operations based in the nearby city of Merritt and year-round access provided via Highway 5, the Kolos Project showcases substantial discovery upside potential with five defined large-scale copper-gold-molybdenum anomalies untested by drilling.

Torr Metals’ primary focus lies in unlocking the potential for major new discoveries at the Kolos Copper-Gold Project, with recent surface geochemical results marking a significant milestone positioning the company as a new key player in the region.

Filion Gold Project

The 261-square-kilometer Filion Project is situated within a largely unexplored greenstone belt where gold was initially discovered in the 1930s. With a comparable geological setting to regional orogenic gold deposits and multiple newly identified and undrilled gold trends in surficial geochemistry, the Filion Project holds significant district-scale exploration promise.

The Filion Project benefits from unparalleled infrastructure access, with direct drive-on access from the Trans-Canada Highway, as well as a regional railway and power grid four kilometers to the south. Additionally, the nearby town of Kapuskasing, with a population of 8,300, provides essential support services.

This strategic positioning ensures the Filion Project’s viability for cost-effective, year-round operations in an area poised for untapped discovery potential.

Latham Copper-Gold Project

Situated in British Columbia’s renowned Golden Triangle, the Latham Project spans a vast 689-square-kilometer district, offering immense potential for multiple major discoveries. Accessible year-round via Highway 37, just 20 kilometers south of the town of Dease Lake, the site is strategically located amidst established mining infrastructure, including the active Red Chris mine to the southeast and upcoming major porphyry projects at Schaft Creek and Galore Creek along-trend to the southwest.

Highlighted by the Gnat Pass copper-gold porphyry deposit dating back to the 1960s, the Latham Project presents a compelling opportunity for significant expansion and potential discovery. A non-compliant indicated resource at the Gnat Pass deposit includes 33 million tonnes at 0.39% copper, open beyond 200 meters vertical depth, alongside six drill-ready kilometer-scale copper-gold exploration targets.

Moreover, the Latham Project’s appeal corresponds to the region being an attractive destination for major asset acquisitions and takeovers. Recent transactions within a 40-kilometer radius include Newmont’s 2021 acquisition of the Saddle North copper-gold porphyry deposit for $311 million and Newcrest’s investment in the Red Chris copper-gold porphyry deposit in 2019 for $804 million, underscoring industry acknowledgment of the region’s potential.

Market Opportunity

The World Gold Council, the industry association for the world’s gold producers, estimated in 2023 that the physical financial gold market, which is made up of bars, coins, gold ETFs and central bank reserves, is worth nearly $5 trillion.

The council reports that gold mine production adds approximately 3,500 tons of the precious metal to the world’s supply annually, equivalent to about 2% growth. This historical scarcity and relatively slow production of new supply, as compared to other commodities, is a primary reason gold has retained its value for millennia, according to the council.

Likewise, a report from Acumen Research and Consulting, a global provider of market intelligence and consulting services, valued the global copper market at $304.1 billion in 2022 and forecast that it will reach a market size of $496.8 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period.

The report identifies a growing demand for copper in the electronics industry, as well as an expanding copper supply due to increasing production from existing mines and the rising number of mine development projects in developing nations, as driving factors in the rising value of the copper market.

The platform’s versatility supports a range of payloads—from nucleic acids to proteins and radionuclides—positioning it as a backbone for future oncology innovations.

Market Opportunity

Metastatic cancer remains one of the most critical and underserved areas in global oncology. Approximately 90% of the 10 million cancer-related deaths worldwide each year are attributed to metastasis, rather than primary tumors. This reality underscores the urgent demand for therapies capable of preventing or reversing metastatic progression.

According to a report by Market Research Future, the global metastatic cancer treatment market is projected to grow from $96.52 billion in 2025 to $199.51 billion by 2034, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4% over the forecast period.

Despite major advances in immunotherapy and targeted small molecules, an estimated 80% of cancer-driving genetic targets remain out of reach for these modalities. RNA-based therapeutics offer a powerful solution—but only if their delivery can be precisely controlled. TransCode’s proprietary TTX platform directly addresses this challenge, potentially unlocking a vast new class of drugs and establishing the company as a differentiated player in a rapidly growing oncology market.

Leadership Team

Tom Fitzgerald, Interim CEO and Chief Financial Officer, brings over two decades of strategic and operational experience in life sciences. Before joining TransCode, he served as CFO at Velico Medical and had senior leadership roles at several early- and mid-stage medical technology companies. Fitzgerald’s background spans financial management, business operations, and strategic planning, making him well-suited to guide TransCode through its clinical development and capital formation activities.

Dr. Zdravka Medarova, Co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer, is the scientific innovator behind TransCode’s platform technology. A former faculty member at Harvard Medical School and senior researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. Medarova has authored over 90 peer-reviewed publications and holds more than 20 patents in molecular imaging, oncology, and RNA therapeutics. Her expertise in cancer biology and targeted delivery forms the scientific backbone of the company’s therapeutic approach.

Mullen Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Mullen Automotive Inc. (MULN).

A recent report from Bloomberg has made a strong case for allowing Chinese vehicles into the American market. China has made significant strides in the auto sector over the past couple of decades, growing from a country that was almost fully reliant on imported vehicles to one that now dominates the globe in vehicle sales. The U.S., on the other hand, has seen its auto sector decline for quite some time as American carmakers moved most of their manufacturing to China, where labor costs were significantly lower. Although the U.S. is still home to many of the world's most dominant and established vehicle manufacturers, China is rapidly catching up and has the potential to surpass America's auto industry. Conversely, EV sales in Germany fell by 35% from 2022 to 2024, as Berlin and other EU nations maintain tariffs of up to 45% on Chinese electric vehicles. Allowing Chinese cars into the U.S. could spark innovation and competitiveness among local manufacturers like Ford and General Motors, McKerracher said, pushing them to invest more time, effort, and resources into accelerating their EV offerings. As American buyers have a bigger pool of options to select from, startups like Mullen Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN) will have no choice but to prove that their offerings can stand up to the competition in terms of price and quality.

Mullen Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN) is a Southern California-based automotive company that owns and partners with several synergistic businesses working toward the unified goal of creating clean and scalable energy solutions. Mullen has evolved over the past decade in sync with consumers and technology trends. Today, the company is working diligently to provide exciting EV options built entirely in the United States and made to fit perfectly into the American consumer’s life. Mullen strives to make EVs more accessible than ever by building an end-to-end ecosystem that takes care of all aspects of EV ownership.

Commencement of Trading on Nasdaq

On November 5, 2021, Mullen announced its commencement of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

“Today is a monumental day for Mullen Automotive. I am especially proud of our team, investors and all who have believed in Mullen and taken us to this point as a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Capital Market,” David Michery, CEO and Chairman of Mullen Automotive, stated in the news release. “Trading on Nasdaq now opens us up to new investors, both institutional and retail shareholders, and broadens our awareness and company profile, while increasing awareness of Mullen and our technology platform and opening new opportunities in EV and beyond. The road ahead has never been brighter for Mullen, and I am proud to lead us into the future.”

The milestone came in the wake of the company’s stock-for-stock merger with Net Element Inc.

The Mullen FIVE

The Mullen FIVE EV Crossover, debuting at the Los Angeles International Auto Show (LAIAS) on November 17, 2021, embodies Mullen’s Southern California roots with an inspired design focused on two complementary Golden State themes – California landscape and California urban.

The FIVE is built on an EV Crossover skateboard platform that offers multiple powertrain configurations and trim levels in a svelte design that is Strikingly Different™ and exciting to experience in person.

Prior to the start of LAIAS, the Mullen FIVE was selected as a finalist by the LA Auto Show for Top EV SUV in the ZEVA “People’s Choice” Awards.

LAIAS provides Mullen an opportunity to display multiple variants of the FIVE model while also showcasing its powertrain, battery and charging technology. The company intends to bring the FIVE to market in 2024, and reservations are currently open here.

Mullen’s development portfolio also includes EV Fleet Vans, which it intends to bring to market in Q2 2022, and the pure electric, high performance Mullen DragonFLY.

Expansion of Manufacturing Capacity

On November 2, 2021, Mullen announced plans to expand its facility in Robinsonville, Mississippi.
