Weekend Show - Brian Leni & Dave Erfle - Smart Money Rotations: Navigating Gold, Silver, and Copper Post-PDAC

The 2026 PDAC convention in Toronto served as a wake-up call for the mining industry. While attendance reached record highs, the market's behavior has shifted from the broad "rising tide" of previous years to a much more selective, volatile environment. This week, we sit down with Brian Leni (Junior Stock Review) and Dave Erfle (Junior Miner Junky) to discuss why the "smart money" is moving away from lifestyle juniors and toward high-conviction developers in gold, silver, and copper.

• Segment 1 & 2 - I kick off the show with Brian Leni, the founder and editor of the Junior Stock Review and host of Field Notes on YouTube. Leni provides a recap of the PDAC conference in Toronto and analyzes current market volatility while sharing his specific investment strategies for high-quality developers and explorers in the gold, silver, and copper sectors.
