SNDL Inc. (SNDL)

CannabisNewsWire, StockEarnings, QualityStocks, Schaeffer's, InvestorPlace, StocksEarning, MarketBeat, Trades Of The Day, BUYINS.NET, Daily Trade Alert, The Street, Kiplinger Today, StreetInsider, The Online Investor, FreeRealTime, MarketClub Analysis, TheoTrade, Early Bird, CNBC Breaking News, Investopedia, Prism MarketView, StockMarketWatch and MarketClub reported earlier on SNDL Inc. (SNDL), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

A recent study from Israel suggests that marijuana use may influence how partners feel about their relationships, with women and men reporting sharply different experiences. The research, published in the Drug and Alcohol Dependence Journal, examined how varying levels of cannabis consumption relate to satisfaction in long-term partnerships. 

The study involved 110 couples who answered detailed surveys about how often they used cannabis, how they viewed the strength of their relationship, how they felt about their sex lives, and how responsive they believed their partners were. 

Women who consumed cannabis frequently tended to rate their relationships more positively, describing both themselves and their partners as more fulfilled than women who used it rarely or never. Men, however, told a different story. The study notes that those who used marijuana at similar high levels tended to report lower satisfaction. They also viewed their partners as less responsive, although the latter finding did not meet the threshold for statistical significance. 

The study is one of the few to look at possible dose-related effects rather than simply whether a person uses cannabis or abstains. The authors say this approach offers a more nuanced look at how consumption patterns shape couples’ experiences. 

The study notes that couples who differed significantly in how much they used the drug were more likely to describe weaker bonds and less satisfying sex lives. The researchers link this trend to a long-standing theory that shared activities strengthen romantic bonds. When one partner regularly uses marijuana and the other does not, or when their consumption levels differ widely, the couple may have fewer mutual experiences built around that activity, which can limit closeness. 

As for the gender divide, the researchers offered several ideas. Men generally consume cannabis more often than women, which has been associated in previous studies with a greater chance of negative physical or psychological effects. Those drawbacks might spill into relationships and influence both partners’ sense of connection. 

Women, on the other hand, typically use cannabis at lower levels. Light use has been associated with fewer adverse consequences and a better reported quality of life compared with heavy use. The researchers suggest that these differences may help explain why frequent use appears to affect women more positively in the context of romantic satisfaction. 

The team also raised the possibility that social expectations play a part. Women who use cannabis heavily may be stepping outside traditional gender roles, which could create a sense of autonomy and authenticity. That feeling of independence may contribute to a stronger perception of relationship quality. 

The authors caution that their sample size was modest and that more research is needed to understand why these gender patterns emerge. 

Rigorous data of this nature could be useful to the cannabis industry, including firms like SNDL Inc. (NASDAQ: SNDL), as it could inform how they refine their products targeting different sections of the population. 

SNDL Inc. (SNDL), closed Thursday's trading session at $1.59, off by 1.8519%, on 1,590,664 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 212,143,639 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $1.15/$2.89.

AI Maverick Intel Inc. (AIMV)

TechMediaWire and AINewsWire reported earlier on AI Maverick Intel Inc. (AIMV), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

Anthropic’s CEO is urging the industry to be open about the risks linked to advanced AI systems. Dario Amodei warned that a lack of candor could leave the tech sector repeating the history of opioid and tobacco firms that concealed risks for years. 

In an interview with CBS News, Amodei stated that AI is moving toward capabilities that could surpass human intelligence in most areas. He urged industry leaders to be open about what their technologies can do and the potential problems they could create. 

Amodei has repeatedly raised alarms about the economic disruption that rapid AI progress could bring. Earlier this year, he predicted that half of today’s entry-level office roles, including some tasks in finance, law, and accounting, may disappear within the next five years. The speed of modern AI, he said, increases the likelihood of widespread employment changes unless action is taken to manage the transition. 

He described the speed of current AI progress as a kind of compressed century, suggesting that breakthroughs once expected to take decades might occur in only a few years. 

Anthropic has positioned itself as a company focused on safety research. Even so, its own models have exhibited behavior that has raised internal questions. The company has reported instances in which AI systems appeared aware of being tested or attempted to engage in coercive actions such as blackmail. 

Last week, the company disclosed that a China-backed group used Claude Code, a tool designed for software development, to target dozens of organizations worldwide in September. The group succeeded in a small number of intrusions. 

According to Anthropic, the troubling element was not only the attack itself but also how independently the model carried out much of the operation. The company estimated that roughly 90% of the activity took place without any human direction. 

Amodei said the autonomy that makes the systems useful can also create uncertainty. More independence can boost productivity, he said, yet it also raises questions about whether the tools will follow the goals set by their operators. 

Logan Graham, who leads Anthropic’s stress testing team, told CBS that the same abilities that help scientists pursue new treatments could, in the wrong hands, support the creation of biological threats. Graham said companies want AI tools that help build their businesses, not systems that act unpredictably. 

His team continues to run experiments to identify weak points in advanced models and understand how much control users can reasonably expect to maintain. 

For companies like AI Maverick Intel Inc. (OTC: AIMV) that leverage AI to deliver business solutions, a tight handle on risk management is a must since any breach could have devastating consequences for the enterprises that they serve. 

AI Maverick Intel Inc. (AIMV), closed Thursday's trading session at $0.027, even for the day, on 40,000 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 10,491,448 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $0.012/$0.448.

EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (EVGIF)

QualityStocks, SmallCapRelations, MissionIR, InvestorBrandNetwork, SeriousTraders, Stocks to Buy Now, Green Energy Stocks, StocksToBuyNow, Tip.us, ESGWireNews, SmallCapSociety, NetworkNewsWire and Tiny Gems reported earlier on EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (EVGIF), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

Although wind and solar electricity generation has become more affordable than coal or natural gas across most markets, regulatory and financial obstacles prevent faster transition. Renewables supplied over 90% of generating capacity additions worldwide during 2024, but challenges such as permitting delays and limited access to capital access have resulted in slow adoption, especially in rapidly industrializing nations where energy demand grows fastest.

Mature renewable technologies have made using clean energy to generate utility scale cheaper than using natural gas and coal, providing sustained economic advantages over fossil alternatives which require continuous fuel purchases.

In 2024, renewable energy installations prevented $467 billion in fuel purchases globally. Renewables reached 46% of worldwide installed capacity by year’s end following the addition of 585 gigawatts of new renewable capacity. This is approximately three times Texas’s entire generating infrastructure added in just a single year.

Public health concerns reinforce the economic arguments for accelerating the global transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Pollution emissions from coal, oil, and gas combustion cause roughly 5 million annual deaths globally from respiratory and cardiovascular impacts. Home natural gas appliances release benzene during operation, creating carcinogen exposure in some residences that can match levels seen in secondhand tobacco smoke environments. Research also associates gas cooking appliances with 12.7% of childhood asthma diagnoses in the United States.

Furthermore, fossil fuel combustion generates atmospheric greenhouse gases that trap heat, elevating temperatures and intensifying health challenges including heat stress, respiratory conditions, and disease transmission patterns. Despite the key role fossil fuels like coal, natural gas, and oil have played in industrialization, they have a detrimental effect on both public health and the ecosystems we rely on.

But regulatory barriers still persist across developed nations even though the need to transition to renewables is immediate. Energy projects in the United States average 4.5 years due to slow permitting processes, while transmission infrastructure approvals frequently extend beyond a decade. Solar developments dominate planned capacity additions but encounter these protracted timelines, and bipartisan 2024 federal legislation designed to streamline permitting procedures has stalled in Congress.

Developing economies face substantially steeper challenges beyond the typically slow regulatory procedures seen in the U.S. According to International Energy Agency projections, emerging markets will generate 85% of global electricity demand growth through 2027 yet renewable construction in the global south still lags behind fossil fuel adoption. This is largely due to limited capital financing for green energy projects. Renewable projects often require significant capital during their initial construction phases, but operational savings gradually accumulate over decades as fuel requirements disappear.

Financial institutions often impose higher interest rates for renewable projects in developing nations due to higher lender risk, and weaker government backing mechanisms. To ensure equitable access to capital for renewable energy development in developing nations, governments and development institutions can stabilize energy policies, deploy public funds to cover risk portions, or provide lender insurance that substantially lowers borrowing costs.

Transition technologies like those commercialized by companies like EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (TSX.V: EVGN) (OTCQX: EVGIF) can help in curtailing emissions as measures are instituted to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy in different markets.

EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (EVGIF), closed Thursday's trading session at $0.3948, even for the day. The average volume for the last 3 months is 175,562 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $0.2741/$1.25.

BitFuFu Inc. (FUFU)

CryptoCurrencyWire, QualityStocks, MarketBeat, TradersPro, Premium Stock Alerts and 360 Wall Street reported earlier on BitFuFu Inc. (FUFU), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

Bitcoin slid to $93,000 over the weekend, pushing market sentiment down to levels not seen since the 2022 downturn. The widely watched Crypto Fear and Greed Index fell to 10, a level that signals extreme fear and matches conditions from July of that year.

The sharp drop coincided with a wave of liquidations worth more than $617 million as hopes for near-term interest rate cuts faded. The move also followed a rough Friday session on Wall Street, in which major indexes fell more than 1.6%.

Roughly $242 million in Bitcoin positions were wiped out, while Ether accounted for $169 million. The largest single liquidation, nearly $31 million, came from a leveraged Bitcoin trade on Hyperliquid.

Shifting expectations around the U.S. monetary policy added to the pressure. Market odds for a Federal Reserve rate cut in December fell to 40% after sitting above 60% a week earlier. That adjustment pushed investors toward safer holdings and away from risk markets such as crypto.

Analysis from CryptoQuant suggested that the latest slide came mostly from short-term traders’ capitulation. Their short-term holder spending ratio stayed under 1 on multiple occasions, a signal that many were selling at a loss.

On-chain metrics also showed that coins moved within the last three months made up most of the activity during the sell-off. Long-term holders have increased sales since early autumn, although the pace still resembles typical profit taking rather than the heavy distribution that often appears at cycle peaks.

Despite the slide, BTC’s Realized Cap continued to climb, which indicates new buyers entering the market. The inflows, however, were not strong enough to offset heavy selling from older short-term holders and steady distribution from long-term holders. BTC remained about 9% above the average on-chain cost basis for spot ETF investors, which sat at $86,680.

CryptoQuant noted that the strongest downward pressure came from leveraged short-term traders who were forced to unwind during periods of stress. Even so, analysts said the current structure still looks like a correction within a broader bull phase rather than a transition into a full market top.

U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs reported $1.11 billion in outflows between November 10 and 14, marking a third straight week of withdrawals. BlackRock’s fund saw the largest decline at $532 million, while Grayscale’s Mini Trust shed close to $290 million. Bitcoin spot ETFs currently hold $125.34 billion in assets, equal to 6.7% of BTC’s total market value.

Across the broader market, total crypto market value dropped to $3.31 trillion, down nearly 1%, trimming $1.1 trillion over the past six weeks.

The extreme fear reading echoed sentiment from July 2022, when BTC hovered between $19,000 and $20,000 following the Terra collapse. The difference this time is that fear is appearing at almost five times the price. Historically, that kind of divergence can occur near longer-term bottoms, although past examples also show that recovery does not always begin immediately.

Established companies like BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ: FUFU) usually include the likelihood of such downswings in their plans, so they are unlikely to suffer any significant adverse effects during this particular downturn in the market.

BitFuFu Inc. (FUFU), closed Thursday's trading session at $2.63, off by 8.9965%, on 252,423 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 322,930 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $2.62/$6.05.

Riot Blockchain Inc. (RIOT)

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

Arthur Hayes, co-founder and former CEO of BitMEX, has offered his perspective on why Bitcoin has recently experienced a significant decline. According to Hayes, the 25% drop in Bitcoin’s price since early October is not caused by changing political messages or global events but by a contraction in U.S. dollar liquidity.

In simple terms, there is less cash flowing through the financial system, which affects how investors buy and sell assets like Bitcoin. Hayes describes Bitcoin as a “free-market weathervane of global fiat liquidity,” meaning its price often reflects expectations about future money supply.

Hayes uses an interesting analogy to explain market behavior. He compares the unpredictability of early-season winter storms in Hokkaido, Japan, to the way traders interpret economic signals. Just like skiers make decisions with incomplete information, investors must often act on limited or uncertain data. This, Hayes argues, helps explain why Bitcoin can experience sharp swings even when there is no major political change.

Earlier in the year, following the U.S. “Liberation Day” market events on April 2, Hayes predicted that Bitcoin would rally strongly. He believed that fiscal stimulus and supportive government policies would drive prices higher. Initially, his prediction seemed accurate. Bitcoin rose about 21%, and investor interest in altcoins like Ether increased. However, the rally stalled, and the cryptocurrency started to fall, eventually losing roughly a quarter of its value.

One of the main reasons for the price decline, Hayes explains, is related to ETF trading and the activity of large investment companies known as Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs). Many hedge funds were engaging in a strategy called a basis trade, where they bought spot Bitcoin ETFs while shorting Bitcoin futures. These trades temporarily boosted ETF inflows but did not represent long-term buying.

When the spreads narrowed, hedge funds reduced their positions, causing outflows from ETFs. DATs also slowed down their purchases as premiums on their shares fell below net asset value. Together, these factors exposed the underlying liquidity challenges in the market.

Looking ahead, Hayes believes that the trajectory of Bitcoin and other markets will depend on whether the U.S. government injects new liquidity. Political pressure, particularly before the 2026 midterm elections, may push policymakers to release more stimulus despite their public focus on controlling inflation. While short-term price drops are likely, Hayes remains optimistic about the long-term outlook. He expects that continued money creation will eventually support Bitcoin and other digital assets.

All in all, the recent Bitcoin slump is largely a result of liquidity challenges rather than political events. Temporary inflows from ETFs and institutional investors may have masked the problem, but the market ultimately adjusted to reflect the shortage of cash. For investors, understanding these liquidity dynamics is key to making sense of Bitcoin’s recent volatility.

For companies like Riot Blockchain Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) that have been around for a long time, such market reversals aren’t new and the firms are likely to ride this one out without being scathed.

Riot Blockchain Inc. (RIOT), closed Thursday's trading session at $12.78, off by 4.2697%, on 21,872,452 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 1,179,957 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $6.19/$23.935.

Forward Industries (FWDI)

We reported earlier on Forward Industries (FWDI), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

  • The Forward Industries (FWDI) Board recently authorized a share repurchase program to allow the company to repurchase up to $1 billion worth of common company stock.
  • The company has also filed a Resale Prospectus Supplement, which allows certain named shareholders to resell common stock from time to time.
  • According to the Chairman of the Board, Kyle Samani, these moves reflect the company’s commitment to building long-term shareholder value and believes in the potential of Solana technology for capital market applications.

Forward Industries (NASDAQ: FWDI), a company building and managing a large-scale Solana (SOL) treasury, recently authorized a new share repurchase program and filed a Resale Prospectus Supplement (https://ibn.fm/h8hV2) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The share repurchase program permits the company to buy back up to $1 billion of common stock. These repurchases may be made periodically through block trades, open-market purchases, or via transactions that are negotiated privately. Also, all repurchases will comply with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

FWDI will determine the amount, method, and timing of repurchases based on share price, market conditions, legal requirements, and other considerations. This authorization is set to expire on Sept. 30, 2027. The Resale Prospectus Supplement registers certain shares of FWDI’s common stock which were issued in the company’s recent private placement. The filing allows the named stockholders to resell common stock as described in the filing.

Speaking about these moves, Chairman of the Board, Kyle Samani, said “Today’s announcement reflects our confidence in both Forward Industries’ differentiated strategy and the underlying strength of Solana’s ecosystem,” adding “While the resale registration is a normal post-PIPE process, launching a buyback program alongside it sends a clear message — we are committed to building long-term shareholder value and believe in the potential of Solana technology for capital market applications. The authorization gives us flexibility to return capital to shareholders when we believe our stock trades below intrinsic value, all while continuing to execute our Solana treasury and operational initiatives.”

Electric vehicle sales across Latin America are surging as Chinese automakers flood markets with affordable models and outcompete EV pioneer Tesla. Peru saw sales jump 44 percent year-over-year through September, reaching over 7,200 units; Chile hit 10.6 percent market share in September and Uruguay reached 28 percent in the third quarter. Brazil saw 9.4 percent penetration in August. Chinese brands have now captured nearly 30 percent of Chile's passenger car sales and 22 percent in Uruguay. Tesla lacks an official presence in South America despite expressing early interest in expanding into the region. Partnering with local importers and offering affordable models tailored to regional preferences has allowed them to capture market share in a market that Tesla has failed to penetrate. BYD leads electric sales in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Uruguay, ranking as third-biggest seller across all vehicle types in Uruguay, trailing only Chevrolet and Hyundai.

MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX) (OTC: MAXXF) is a Canadian mineral exploration company pioneering the development of natural hydrogen as a potential new primary energy source. As a first mover in this emerging sector, the company has assembled North America’s largest permitted land package targeting naturally occurring, emissions-free hydrogen accumulations in the earth’s subsurface.

MAX Power plans to commence Canada’s first dedicated deep drilling program for natural hydrogen in November 2025, starting on the 200-km-long Genesis Trend in southern Saskatchewan, with the goal of converting a discovery into the world’s first commercial natural hydrogen venture in 2026.

Backed by institutional partnerships and a highly experienced technical team, MAX Power continues to build a globally recognized brand in the natural hydrogen sector. Its massive land package in Saskatchewan currently comprises 1.3 million permitted acres with another 5.7 million acres under application.

Saskatchewan, a jurisdiction recognized for its supportive regulatory environment and clean energy innovation, features North America’s most advanced policy framework for the exploration and development of natural hydrogen. The province is also known for its spectacular resource endowment as the world’s leading potash provider, the top high-grade uranium producer in the world, and Canada’s second-largest oil producer. Saskatchewan is also Canada’s leader in helium production, geothermal energy and carbon capture.

The company’s head offices are in Saskatchewan’s two largest cities, Saskatoon and Regina.

Projects

Natural Hydrogen (Saskatchewan)

MAX Power holds multiple large land packages across Saskatchewan prospective for deposits of natural hydrogen, highlighted by the 200-km-long Genesis Trend and the 75-km-wide Grasslands Project.

Genesis features easy road, rail and power access and a proposed hydrogen hub on its eastern side where there is an abundance of potential end-users for natural hydrogen. Drilling is set to begin in early November 2025 at the Lawson target situated in the heart of Genesis. Canada’s first deep well for natural hydrogen is specifically designed to test a complete five-element hydrogen system interpreted to exist at Lawson: source rocks, migration pathways, reservoirs, seals, and traps. Data from vintage and proprietary 2D seismic, gravity and magnetic surveys, and subsurface mapping, among other geological and geophysical information, support the prospectivity of Lawson which lies adjacent to an extensive regional “Salt Barrier” offering excellent seal and trap conditions.

The Genesis Trend’s scalability is further demonstrated by the recent identification of the Lucky Lake target, approximately 50 km northwest of Lawson and one of at least 20 Lawson “look-a-likes” that is being investigated along the trend. Early interpretation suggests serpentinized rocks and structural features favorable for hydrogen generation exist at Lucky Lake.

At Grasslands, geologists are excited about a broad area in the vicinity of a well (“Climax”) near the U.S. border that was drilled a few years ago and inadvertently resulted in Canada’s first known deep subsurface occurrence of natural hydrogen, associated with a rare rock assemblage geologists refer to as “exotic terrane”. Permits covering an area stretching 75 km east-west and up to 10 km north-south were acquired by MAX Power next to this discovery, amplifying the company’s first-mover advantage. Adjacent to three sides of Grasslands are producing helium wells owned by privately-held North American Helium, demonstrating that this under-explored area of the province is highly prospective for clean gas. Drilling of a target at Grasslands is expected during Q1 2026.

Other MAX Power land packages are Rider 1, 2 and 3 in the southeast part of the province, and Choiceland in the north-central part of the province.

To enhance scientific rigor and accelerate development, MAX Power has established a multi-year strategic collaboration with the Petroleum Technology Research Centre (PTRC), a globally recognized leader in subsurface energy research based in Regina, Saskatchewan. This partnership complements the company’s relocation to Innovation Saskatchewan’s R+T Parks in Saskatoon and Regina, placing its technical and executive teams at the heart of the province’s academic, regulatory, and infrastructure ecosystem.

Critical Minerals

MAX Power’s other key asset is its Wilcox Lithium Project in mining-friendly Cochise County in southeast Arizona where first-ever diamond drilling in late 2023/early 2024 confirmed the discovery of near-surface lithium-rich clays over a broad area of the Willcox Playa. MAX Power’s property occurs within a nearly 4,000-acre corridor adjacent to U.S. Department of Defense land, and benefits from direct access through roads, rail and power infrastructure. The discovery was made just as lithium entered its final price downturn and is now being intensely revisited by the company in light of the turnaround in lithium and an emphasis on critical mineral resource development in the United States under the Trump administration.

Market Opportunity

According to company materials, the global hydrogen market is valued at approximately $250 billion and is expected to surpass $400 billion by 2030. Supporting this outlook, a study published in Science Advances (Dec. 2024) estimates that in-place natural hydrogen resources could meet global net-zero carbon goals for roughly 200 years. Closer to home, a feasibility study by the Transition Accelerator (April 2024) projects that the Regina-Moose Jaw Industrial Corridor (RMJIC) in Saskatchewan could support a C$708 million annual hydrogen market, with province-wide demand reaching as high as C$2.7 billion per year.

These projections underscore a compelling opportunity to establish a new energy economy centered around natural hydrogen—a low-cost, low-emission, and potentially naturally replenishing resource. MAX Power is well-positioned to lead this effort with proximity to infrastructure, favorable geology, and increasing institutional support.

Pipeline and Partnerships

Oncotelic’s lead candidate is OT-101, currently in a Phase 3 trial for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (STOP-PC study) and evaluated in gliomas and metastatic solid tumors in combination with IL-2 and checkpoint inhibitors. The antisense molecule targets TGF-β2, a cytokine known to suppress immune responses and promote tumor growth. A Phase 1 trial combining OT-101 with IL-2 was recently completed, demonstrating safety and paving the way for combination therapies with PD-1 blockers and other immunotherapies.

Recent data have further strengthened the rationale for OT-101 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In June and July 2025, two peer-reviewed studies published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences identified TGF-β2 gene expression and methylation status as significant prognostic markers in PDAC, particularly among younger patients and those with low CD8+ T-cell infiltration. High TGF-β2 expression correlated with reduced overall survival, while elevated TGF-β2 methylation was associated with improved outcomes. These findings validate TGF-β2 as a high-priority target and support the continued development of OT-101 as a precision therapy. Both studies leveraged Oncotelic’s proprietary AI-driven platform, PDAOAI, to mine and assemble multi-omic datasets, showcasing the system’s role in accelerating insight generation.

The company holds a 45% ownership stake in GMP Biotechnology Limited, a joint venture with Dragon Capital Overseas Limited. GMP Bio owns SAPU Bioscience, which is executing several pipeline programs.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX: PTM) (NYSE American: PLG)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX: PTM) (NYSE American: PLG).

China plans to publish a report on palladium and platinum inventories once it rolls out its first derivatives market for these precious metals. Through the Guangzhou Futures Exchange, the East Asian country intends to release daily figures on warehouse stockpiles tied to the physical delivery of these contracts, providing an unusually clear view of domestic demand. Although the volume of metal traded on the exchange will represent only a fraction of China's overall platinum and palladium activity, the reported inventories will offer a useful indicator of market dynamics in one of the most significant markets in the world. The slow adoption of electric cars as the demand for fossil-fuel powered vehicles continues to remain steady, has also contributed to the depleting stockpiles. This is because fuel-powered vehicles require platinum in their catalytic converters. As platinum market dynamics continue to evolve, leading producers like Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) will continue extracting as much of the metal as they can to feed the growing demand. 

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) is the operator of the Waterberg Project, a bulk underground platinum group metals (PGM) deposit discovered by Platinum Group in 2011 and located on the Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in South Africa. The Waterberg Project is planned as a fully mechanised platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold mine, including by-product copper and nickel production, and is projected to be one of the largest and lowest cost PGM mines globally.

The project is a joint venture between Platinum Group; integrated PGM producer Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. (OTCQX: IMPUY); Japanese consortium HJ Platinum, which includes trading house Hanwa Co. and the government-backed Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC); and local empowerment partner Mnombo Wethu Consultants (Pty) Ltd. Platinum Group has an effective 50.22% interest in the Waterberg Project.

The company’s primary business objective is to advance the Waterberg Project to a development and construction decision. An update to the 2019 Definite Feasibility Study is expected in 2024.

PGMs are essential and precious metals that include platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, osmium and ruthenium. These metals are known for their purity, high melting points and unique catalytic properties. They are utilized in a number of industrial processes, technologies and commercial applications and play a critical role in autocatalysis and pollution control in the automotive sector. The bulk of global PGMs are mined in Southern Africa and Russia.

The unique properties of PGMs are being applied to various technologies as possible solutions for more efficient energy generation and storage, which may create new demand for PGMs. The company’s battery technology initiative through Lion Battery Technologies Inc., using platinum and palladium in lithium battery technologies, represents one such new opportunity in the high-profile lithium battery research and innovation field.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. founded Lion Battery Technologies Inc. in partnership with Anglo American Platinum Ltd. (AMS: JNB) to support the use of palladium and platinum in lithium battery applications. Lion Battery has entered into an agreement with Florida International University to further advance a research program that uses platinum and palladium to unlock the potential of Lithium Sulfur (Li-S) battery chemistries.

Platinum Group is headquartered in Vancouver, B.C., and Johannesburg, South Africa.

Waterberg Project

Platinum Group’s sole material mineral property, the Waterberg Project, is presently in process with pre-construction permitting; engineering work, including road upgrade and traffic studies; finalization of power and water infrastructure design; and construction camp design.

The company’s principal product from the Waterberg Project is planned to be a PGM-bearing concentrate. The concentrate will contain economic amounts of six elements comprising platinum, palladium, rhodium, gold, copper and nickel. The company’s partner in the Waterberg Project, Impala Platinum Holdings, has acquired a right of first refusal to enter into an offtake agreement, on commercial arm’s-length terms, for the smelting and refining of mineral products from the Waterberg Project.

The Waterberg project has proven and estimated reserves of 19.5 million ounces of PGMs and gold. When fully operational, the mine is projected to produce more than 400,000 ounces of PGMs annually during the peak period of steady state production. The life of the mine is projected at 45 years.

South Africa’s PGM mining sector remains closely tied to economic developments in the global automotive industry, which in 2022 accounted for approximately 43% of the total global demand for platinum and 82% of the total global demand for palladium.

Market Opportunity

According to a report from Straits Research, a global market and business research firm, the worldwide platinum market had an estimated value of $7.72 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $11.95 billion by 2031. That represents a CAGR of 5.13% over the forecast period.

Platinum, one of the rarest of precious metals, is about 30 times scarcer than gold. It is crucial to the automotive and electronics industries and is also used to make jewelry. Stricter emissions regulations around the world have led to an increased demand for platinum to be used in catalytic converters to reduce automotive emission, the report states.

A report from Allied Market Research estimated the global palladium market at $16.3 billion in 2021 and projects the market will reach $28.6 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% over the period.

Palladium is also used in automotive catalytic converters for reducing emissions and in jewelry, dentistry, watchmaking, blood sugar test strips, aircraft spark plugs, surgical instruments, electrical contacts and musical instruments.

An increase in demand for consumer electronics has driven demand for palladium-based multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) used to store energy in electronic devices such as broadcasting equipment, mobile telephones, computers, electronic lighting and high voltage circuits, according to the report.

Numa Numa Resources Inc.

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Numa Numa Resources Inc.

Numa Numa Resources, a mining and infrastructure development company focused on the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, is featured in the newest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast released by IBN. Chairman, CEO, and Founder John D. Kuhns discusses the company's mission, emphasizing Bougainville's vast mineral, timber, and fisheries resources and the need to rebuild its economy following decades of limited development. Kuhns highlights the importance of earning trust by aligning with Bougainvillean priorities and outlines the company's strategy to develop local resources while positioning Numa Numa Resources to become a public company within the next six to eight months.

Numa Numa Resources Inc. is a mining and infrastructure development company focused on unlocking transformational opportunities in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, where the company is headquartered and where its management has lived and worked for 10 years.

Bougainville, a resource-rich archipelago in the South Pacific, is perhaps best known as the home of the Panguna Mine. Developed by Rio Tinto, the Panguna Mine was the largest open cut copper and gold mine in the world when it operated from 1972 to 1989 before being shuttered due to a civil war, called “the Crisis,” between Bougainville and its parent government Papua New Guinea. In 2001, the Bougainville Peace Agreement ended the war and awarded Bougainville limited autonomy, including its own constitution, by which ownership of the mine reverted to its customary landowners. A majority of the Panguna Mine’s copper, gold, and silver ore resources remain within its walls, making the fully explored and developed Panguna Mine one of the largest ore bodies in the world, today worth approximately $100 billion. Most geologists who have studied Bougainville believe that other nearby locations such as Mainoki and Karato are highly prospective and may contain ore deposits similar in size and scale to those of the Panguna Mine.

Numa Numa’s fundamental strength is the relationships it has developed over the years with the landowners in the Panguna, Mainoki, and Karato resource areas.

Pursuant to newly executed written agreements, Numa Numa has formed and now owns a stake in three new corporate entities that will own and develop, with the Panguna, Mainoki, and Karato landowners, their respective resources as partners pursuant to the laws and regulations of Bougainville. One entity has been established for Panguna, one for Mainoki, and one for Karato. Each entity is co-owned with the landowners of those respective areas. Each owns all the landowners’ resource rights to that area, and each entity is to be managed by a joint company/landowner team led by Numa Numa. Due to Bougainville’s constitution and law, each of these entities therefore effectively controls the monetization of the resources in its area. In Bougainville, the landowners—not the government—own the resources. With the Panguna, Mainoki, and Karato landowners as its contractual partners, Numa Numa now expects to prosper significantly in its mining endeavors in Bougainville.

Numa Numa has a contractual agreement to develop the Panguna Mine executed both with the Panguna Mine Landowner Clan Chiefs—the governmentally accepted owners of the Panguna Mine—and the government of Bougainville and President Ishmael Toroama, along with its rights to the exploration licenses regarding Mainoki and Karato for which it has applied and is awaiting approval. The company will be pursuing all such rights through those corporate entities. Numa Numa, together with its landowner partners, fully expect that these entities will ultimately be issued licenses and approvals by the government to legally pursue mining activities in their respective areas. Together with the Panguna, Mainoki, and Karato landowners, Numa Numa then intends to partner with mining companies who are now being invited to explore, fully develop, and ultimately construct and operate these prime Bougainville mining opportunities.

These new assets distinguish Numa Numa from any other aspirants in Bougainville. No one has any similar entities or relationships with any landowners, even in non-prospective areas, and certainly nothing in Panguna, Mainoki, and Karato, described as the three most important mining areas of Bougainville. That said, Numa Numa also continues to develop a road system in Bougainville’s roadless mining region, a limestone quarry and calcination facility to supply lime to all of Bougainville’s mining operations, and an integrated electric utility to supply electricity to Bougainville.

Metals Market Opportunity

The Panguna Mine contains one of the world’s largest copper and gold ore bodies, but the size of the mine’s resource is only one of its favorable characteristics. The amount of resources in the Panguna Mine are beyond dispute. The mine’s reserves are proven, while most of the world’s major deposits waiting to be mined are not. The Panguna Mine itself is highly accessible and comes with developed infrastructure; much of the roads, port facilities, and other infrastructure built to service the Panguna Mine remain largely intact.

The Panguna Mine’s two most important metals—gold and copper—are, at current market prices, almost equally valuable. Together, the mine’s proven gold and copper resources underscore its role as a global tier-one asset.

Panguna’s 547.15 metric tons of known gold reserves equate to nearly 1% of all global reserves, with value estimates exceeding $40 billion. Given the growing interest by many nations in denominating their trade balances in something other than U.S. dollars, the price of gold has increased dramatically over the last two years, and no end is in sight.

As for copper, the global transition to electrification is triggering historic demand for it, yet the supply pipeline is critically constrained. According to RBC Dominion Securities, just four new large-scale copper mines are in development globally, while demand requires at least one new mine per year through 2035. The Panguna Mine’s copper reserves total 5.3 million metric tons—equal to roughly 70% of Canada’s total reserves—placing it in the same league as major copper-producing nations. With ore grades declining and permitting delays mounting worldwide, the Panguna Mine—let alone Mainoki and Karato when they are explored—is uniquely positioned to help fill the world’s looming copper supply gap.

Independence Requires Numa Numa Rebuilding the Panguna Mine—and Diplomacy

Bougainville is currently an autonomous region of Papua New Guinea, but the 2001 Bougainville Peace Agreement provided Bougainville with the right, within 20 years, to conduct an independence referendum. During this period, Bougainville’s current president, Ishmael Toroama, was the lead proponent in advocating Bougainvillean independence. In 2019, the independence referendum, in which registered Bougainvilleans were asked whether they wished to remain part of Papua New Guinea or become citizens of a new, independent country, was held, and 97.7% of the population chose independence. The next year, Ishmael Toroama was elected President of Bougainville.

Numa Numa assisted Toroama in both his independence initiatives and his presidential election. Both Numa Numa and President Toroama, as well as the great majority of Bougainvilleans, understand that Bougainvillean independence depends on having the means to pay for its cost.

Simply put, Bougainvillean independence depends on rebuilding the Panguna Mine. Bougainvilleans know that they cannot do it themselves. The people understand that, and identify Numa Numa’s business plan for rebuilding the Panguna Mine, as well as the support they assume will come from its Western affiliations—most of the company’s shareholders are either American or Canadian—as the key to not only their prosperity, but their freedom as well.

Bougainvilleans also back Numa Numa’s business plan because they fear the alternative: China, which covets not only Bougainville’s gold and copper, but its strategic location together with its deepwater port at Loloho, the best deepwater port in the Third Island Chain.

On the front line in the Western Pacific’s rising tensions between China and the U.S., Bougainvilleans far prefer an alliance with their tradition Western allies to a takeover by China. Numa Numa’s ongoing diplomatic engagement, including arranging recent visits to Washington D.C. with President Ishmael Toroama, positions the company as both an economic and strategic partner in shaping Bougainville’s future.

Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAIR)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAIR).

Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAIR) is a mineral exploration company focused on acquiring, exploring, and developing high-quality mineral properties in mining-friendly jurisdictions across North America. The company targets projects with historical production, strong multi-metal potential, and clear pathways to discovery through modern geoscience, AI integration, and responsible development practices.

Fairchild’s portfolio is anchored by the Nevada Titan Project, a district-scale, copper-gold system located just outside Las Vegas in the prolific Walker Lane Belt. The company has also entered into an MOU to acquire the advanced-stage Golden Arrow Project in Nevada, subject to completion of a definitive agreement, and it holds 100% ownership of the Fairchild Lake Property in Ontario.

Fairchild’s mission is to build long-term value by identifying overlooked mineralized systems and unlocking their potential using modern exploration methods.

The company is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Projects

Nevada Titan Project (Goodsprings District, Nevada)

Nevada Titan is Fairchild’s flagship asset and a district-scale, multi-metal opportunity located just 55 kilometers southwest of Las Vegas. Spanning over 6,150 acres (300+ claims), the project sits within the historically productive Goodsprings Mining District—part of the prolific Walker Lane Belt and Battle Mountain Trend extension. The area hosts numerous historic mines, including Copperside, Copper Chief, Azurite, and Fitzhugh Lee, yet remains largely untested by modern drilling.

Surface sampling and geological mapping have confirmed high-grade copper mineralization up to 34.0% Cu, with associated values of gold, silver, molybdenum, and platinum group elements. A 1.5-kilometer copper-gold corridor has been identified, showing pods and lenses of mineralization consistent with a porphyry-skarn-CRD system. Notably, the discovery of a hydrothermal breccia pipe with garnet-bearing skarn textures and elevated molybdenum signals a porphyry-affiliated source at depth.

Ongoing exploration includes drone magnetics, AI-integrated targeting, and induced polarization geophysics. With infrastructure already in place and proximity to Las Vegas contractors, Fairchild is preparing for a 2026 drill campaign focused on unlocking the project’s large-scale copper-gold system.

Golden Arrow Project (Walker Lane Shear Zone, Nevada)

In September 2025, Fairchild signed a Memorandum of Understanding to acquire 100% of the Golden Arrow Project, an advanced-stage gold-silver asset in Nevada’s Walker Lane Trend. The project hosts a historic mineral resource estimate of approximately 347,000 ounces of gold and 5.3 million ounces of silver, including 296,500 ounces of gold and 4.0 million ounces of silver in the measured and indicated categories. According to third-party analysis by mining analyst Ryan D. Long, the total acquisition consideration of $5.0 million equates to approximately $12 per ounce of gold in the ground.

The project’s two main deposits, Gold Coin and Hidden Hill, were historically mined at surface and remain open at depth, supported by over 61,000 meters of past drilling. Modern geophysical work has outlined 34 additional exploration targets, including six classified as high-priority. Hosted in a volcanic complex with both high-grade vein and disseminated mineralization, the system offers strong potential for expansion.

Golden Arrow is situated just 96 kilometers from Kinross’s 28-million-ounce Round Mountain Mine and expands Fairchild’s Nevada footprint by 170% when combined with the Titan Project. The project’s extensive exploration database and near-surface deposits make the acquisition a compelling strategic entry point into a proven district with significant near-term development potential.

Fairchild Lake Property (Savant Lake Greenstone Belt, Ontario)

Fairchild Gold holds 100% ownership of the Fairchild Lake Property, a 2,224-hectare claim package in Ontario’s underexplored Savant Lake greenstone belt. Historical and recent work, including airborne geophysics and soil sampling, has identified anomalous gold values near the Kashaweogama Lake Fault, a major crustal break. The company draws geological comparisons to Red Lake’s LP Fault and views the structural setting as a promising focus for future exploration.

Market Opportunity

Fairchild operates in Tier-1 mining jurisdictions where political stability, established infrastructure, and clear permitting pathways reduce development risk and enhance long-term value. Nevada, in particular, is a top-ranked global destination for mineral exploration and home to some of the world’s most productive gold and copper belts. Fairchild’s flagship project, Nevada Titan, is located in the Walker Lane Belt, a prolific trend responsible for more than 89 million ounces of gold and nearly 1 billion ounces of silver to date.

The company is strongly positioned to benefit from the ongoing historic bull market in gold. In early October 2025, Goldman Sachs raised its December 2026 gold price forecast to $4,900 per ounce, citing strong ETF inflows and sustained central bank demand. A Jefferies analyst has projected gold could reach $6,600 per ounce in the near term, while other major institutions including UBS and Bank of America have also raised their targets amid elevated geopolitical risk, structural reserve diversification, and anticipated U.S. rate cuts. With limited new supply and rising demand from both institutional and retail investors, gold remains a cornerstone of portfolio hedging and upside exposure.

Copper also remains a core strategic focus, with demand expected to double by 2035, driven by electrification, grid modernization, and clean energy buildout, according to S&P Global. The Nevada Titan Project hosts porphyry-style copper-gold mineralization, along with skarn and carbonate replacement features—deposit types that are key global sources of both industrial and precious metals.
