| Investing in a Rapidly Changing World |

Eric Coffin, Michael Oliver and Dr. Quinton Hennigh return as guests on this week’s program.
Few investors and letter writers combine such an intimate knowledge of the junior gold resource markets and the metals markets in general as Eric Coffin. He also possesses a brilliant grasp of the interplay of macroeconomic market forces on the junior exploration companies. As co-founder of the Metals Investor Forum (MIF), he will be asked for a preview of his June 11 MIF speech and what needs to transpire to breath some life back into the precious metals mining shares.
Similar questions will be asked of Michael, the answers of which he derives from his proprietary momentum and structural analysis models. Michael believes we are experiencing a market changing tectonic shift that is one for the ages that has traditional analysts confused.
Quinton will update us on progress being made by Irving Resources at its Omui Mine site in Japan where it is exploring a recently buried hot spring gold system. Management is excited about the potential for it to be a high-grade feeder for gold mineralization discovered near surface. Quinton has previously called this a “potential game changing discovery” for this penny gold stock. |

J. Michael Oliver entered the financial services industry in 1975 on the Futures side, joining E.F. Hutton’s International Commodity Division, NYC. He studied under David Johnson, head of Hutton’s Commodity Division and Chairman of the COMEX.
In the 1980’s Oliver began to develop his own momentum-based method of technical analysis. In 1987 Oliver, along with his futures client accounts (Oliver had trading POA) technically anticipated and captured the Crash. Oliver began to realize that his emergent momentum-structural-based tools should be further developed into a full analytic methodology.
In 1992 he was asked by the Financial VP and head of Wachovia Bank’s Trust Department to provide soft dollar research to Wachovia. Within a year Oliver shifted from brokerage to full-time technical research. MSA has provided its proprietary technical research services to financial and asset management clients continually since 1992. Oliver is the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism. |
