MarketJar

Disemminated on behalf of Gladiator Metals Corp. Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSX-V:GLAD) (OTCQB:GDTRF) is a mineral exploration company focused on advancing high-grade copper projects. With a strategic emphasis on the Whitehorse Copper Belt in Yukon, Canada, Gladiator is committed to uncovering and developing significant copper resources. The company's exploration efforts have already identified promising copper skarn mineralization at Cowley Park and the newly staked Jackson Copper Skarn prospect. Gladiator ’s team leverages historical data and modern exploration techniques to expand their resource base, aiming to create substantial value for shareholders through the discovery and development of high-grade copper assets. Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSX-V:GLAD) (OTCQB:GDTRF) has recently expanded its Whitehorse Copper Project by staking 55 new claims, adding 11.3 km² of tenure to encompass the Jackson Copper-Skarn prospect. This new prospect lies 15 km west of the existing claims and covers over 6 km of prospective strike between Cretaceous intrusive bodies and Triassic metasediments, which is a key control on mineralization in the Whitehorse Copper Belt. Historical exploration at the Jackson Copper-Skarn prospect has revealed significant potential. Shallow drill results have intersected high-grade copper skarns with notable intersections including 6.12m at 5.61% Cu, 1.03 g/t Au, and 247 g/t Ag from 55.14m, 10.67m at 6.45 g/t Au from 71.02m within 21.88m at 3.45 g/t Au, and 1.99m at 4.0 g/t Au from 19.35m). Undrilled target areas with high-grade copper skarn mineralization have also been identified on the surface. These include the Franklin Target with rock chip samples showing up to 9.4% copper (Cu), 6.36 g/t gold and 30% Cu, the Hamilton Target with samples revealing up to 3.48% Cu (10.4% zinc) and 1.69% Cu (42.9% Zn), and the Janet Target with samples indicating up to 7.85% Cu and 16.59 g/t gold associated with magnetite skarns and elevated Fe values. Initial airborne magnetics conducted by previous explorers have highlighted undrilled high-magnetic anomalies over more than 4.4 km of strike, indicating further exploration potential. Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSX-V:GLAD) (OTCQB:GDTRF) has begun its summer exploration program, which includes mapping and sampling, with drone magnetics planned for later in the season. The Jackson Prospect has been intermittently explored by historical explorers through spatially constrained soil sampling, mapping, trenching, and approximately 1,901m of diamond drilling across 24 drill holes. This historical work, supported by limited airborne magnetics conducted in 2014 by Precision Geophysics, highlighted over 4.4 km of untested magnetic anomalism coinciding with high magnetic response areas, outcropping magnetite-copper skarns, and the mapped contact between Cretaceous intrusions and Triassic limestones. Outside the drilled area, further undrilled and underexplored mineralized targets remain. These are highlighted by high-grade copper skarn mineralization exposed on the surface for over 6 km and include the Franklin Target, the Hamilton Target, and the Janet Target. With the start of summer exploration programs, Gladiator Metals is looking forward to updating the market with further news from the Whitehorse Copper Belt in the coming weeks. Gladiator Metals Announces Significant High-Grade Copper Assay Results from Cowley Park On May 28, Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSX-V:GLAD) (OTCQB:GDTRF) announced assay results for additional historic drill holes at Cowley Park, further defining the high-grade copper skarn mineralization. Key results include 10.3m at 1.92% Cu and 1459 ppm or.15% Mo from 131.7m, 10m at 1.07% Cu from 49m (within 24m at 0.63% Cu from 35m), and 8m at 1.02% Cu from 105m. The results highlight areas for significant exploration upside. The southeastern extension has a potential extension of over 100m to the east.

The Meme Stock Revival Saw GameStop (NYSE: GME) Shares Surge Above 120%: VantagePoint’s A.I.-Driven Forecasting Software Saw It Coming A Week Earlier

Benzinga

By James Blacker, Benzinga Meme stocks have once again rocked the financial markets, with GameStop Corp (NYSE: GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE: AMC) seeing dramatic spikes in recent weeks. Shares of GameStop soared 74% on May 13 after social media influencer and investor Keith Gill, who was instrumental in the 2021 meme stock frenzy, made his first social media post in three years. Similarly, other meme stocks saw massive surges, such as AMC, which rose nearly 80%, and Koss Corporation (NASDAQ: KOSS), which more than doubled. While the share prices of GameStop and AMC seem to have now settled down, the resurgence of meme stocks has reignited the discussion about their volatility and unpredictability. While making money with meme socks is possible, it is considered by many to be risky and relies heavily on timing the market. GameStop shares opened at $26.34 on May 13. At the time of writing, however, the stock is trading at $22.12, which means that traders who entered long positions after Gill’s social media posts on May 11 and 12 would be in the red. A month ago, the stock was trading at around $10, which means those who got in early would be up some 120%. Staying Ahead Of The Curve While humans can be notoriously bad at timing the market, advanced predictive tools are invaluable for traders and investors looking to capitalize on events like the meme stock resurgence. Amid such a landscape, the right tools are essential, and VantagePoint’s A.I.-driven market forecasting software has proven its ability to predict the momentum and trends of stocks like GameStop and AMC before they take off, with up to 87.4% historical accuracy. Combined with its dual-patented intermarket analysis, which compiles and analyzes data about the interconnectedness of global markets, VantagePoint reports that its AI software saw the GameStop confirmed trend reversal as early as May 3rd, long before the broader market reacted to it. VantagePoint claims that its software gives traders precise forecasts of a trend’s direction from one to three days in advance, in addition to predictions of the next day’s high and low. It makes forecasts for over 2,300 stocks, ETFs, futures, forex pairs, commodities and cryptocurrencies every single day. The company has been using A.I. to forecast the markets for over three decades, which means three decades that its neural networks have been learning and getting more and more accurate. In line with the company’s vision to empower investors daily, VantagePoint was the first trading software developer in the world to introduce strategy back-testing capabilities in trading software for personal computers. In February 2020, long before the A.I. explosion, the company announced that its predictive accuracy had increased to 87.4%. Since introducing its first trading software in 1983, VantagePoint has grown into a multi-million dollar, Inc. 500, trading software company with over 40,000 customers in more than 160 countries. The company has also won multiple awards, including “Best Predictive A.I. Software For Trading” by A.I. World Finance in 2023. The company also partnered with Benzinga in 2022 for a four-part series to help traders. With the resurgence of social media-driven volatility, VantagePoint’s early insights could give traders and investors the edge they need to stay ahead of the curve.

Atlas Lithium (NASDAQ: ATLX) Positions Itself To Meet Soaring Global Lithium Demand With Strategic Investments From Global Partners

Benzinga

By Mangeet Kaur Bouns The growth of electrification and government mandates for electric vehicles (EVs) have created much excitement around beneficiary industries in recent times, with demand for the metals that will be needed for batteries to power these automobiles and initiatives – such as lithium – rising. Although the initial excitement may have cooled, forecasts still point to a robust demand for lithium by 2030. As the world transitions toward greener and more sustainable energy sources, the demand for lithium is projected to rebound, driven by its critical role in various high-tech and green energy applications. Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX), with its extensive project portfolio and strategic investments, has positioned itself to capitalize on this rising demand, particularly through its operations in Brazil's prolific Lithium Valley. The Critical Role Of Lithium In Modern Life Lithium is indispensable in modern technology. From EVs to smartphones, laptops and renewable energy storage systems, lithium-ion batteries are at the core of the green energy revolution. These batteries not only power our daily devices but also play a vital role in reducing carbon emissions by supporting the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. Central to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, EVs rely heavily on lithium-ion batteries. These batteries provide the necessary energy storage for EVs, making them key in the shift toward sustainable transportation. Additionally, lithium batteries are crucial for storing energy generated from renewable sources like wind and solar, ensuring a reliable and stable power supply even when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing. Market forecasts highlight the burgeoning demand for lithium. Fastmarkets projects a 487% increase in lithium demand in the U.S. by 2030, reaching almost 412,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent. Similarly, Future Market Insights expects the lithium-ion battery material market to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.9% from 2024 to 2034 to reach $371 billion. This growth is expected to be supported by government incentives like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in the U.S., which boosts the economics of battery production through substantial credits. Atlas Lithium’s Extensive Project Portfolio Atlas Lithium is well-positioned to capitalize on this growing demand. With a market capitalization of close to $230 million, this U.S.-based mineral exploration and development company focuses on lithium and other battery minerals. Its lithium exploration properties span an impressive 539 square kilometers, which the company says is the largest in Brazil. The company’s primary asset is the Minas Gerais Lithium Project (MGLP) in Brazil, which houses the world’s fifth-largest lithium reserves. The MGLP covers approximately 468 square kilometers and comprises 85 mineral rights. This project is situated in the Jequitinhonha Valley, known as Brazil’s Lithium Valley, a region rich in hard-rock lithium deposits, particularly pegmatites, which allow for cost-effective extraction compared to lithium from brines. In addition to lithium, Atlas Lithium’s portfolio includes early-stage projects and properties with other critical minerals such as rare earths, nickel, cobalt, titanium and graphite. These minerals are essential for the battery supply chain and various high-tech applications, further enhancing the company's strategic positioning in the market. Securing Funding Through Strategic Partnerships Atlas Lithium has secured substantial funding and strategic partnerships to advance its projects. The company’s high-quality spodumene has attracted interest from global investors and partners. Atlas Lithium has secured offtake agreements with Chengxin Lithium Group and Yahua Industrial Group, which supply lithium hydroxide to major EV manufacturers like BYD Company (OTC: BYDDY) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA). These agreements commit a total of $50 million investments, ensuring funding for the first production phase in 2024. In March this year, Atlas Lithium strengthened its financial position through a strategic investment and offtake agreement with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (OTC: MITSF). Mitsui invested $30 million in Atlas Lithium's common shares and agreed to purchase 15,000 tons of lithium concentrate from phase 1 and 60,000 tons annually for five years from phase 2 of the company’s soon-to-be-producing Neves Project. Chairperson and CEO Marc Fogassa highlighted the company's progress, stating that Atlas is on track to become the second high-grade lithium concentrate producer in Minas Gerais. Using advanced Dense Media Separation (DMS) technology, Atlas aims to produce up to 150,000 metric tons per year of battery-grade spodumene in phase 1, with plans to double this capacity by mid-2025. Progress Toward Production And Environmental Sustainability Atlas Lithium is making strides toward commissioning its modular DMS lithium processing plant, which is expected to be operational by the fourth quarter of 2024. The company says the innovative plant design is environment-friendly, featuring a compact, pre-assembled modular structure that reduces the overall physical footprint and environmental impact. The company’s technical team, with extensive experience from previous lithium projects in Australia, South Africa and Brazil, is spearheading this accelerated development. The plant, significantly lighter and more compact than traditional DMS facilities, is poised to streamline the path to production and revenue generation. Earlier this month, the company’s modular DMS lithium processing plant entered the final stages of fabrication and trial assembly in preparation for its anticipated shipment to the Neves project site in Brazil’s Lithium Valley. Meeting Global Lithium Demand Despite some challenges, such as recently declined lithium prices and market volatility, the long-term outlook for lithium remains strong. Experts predict that prices will stabilize and eventually rise as the market adjusts to the growing demand driven by EV adoption and global decarbonization efforts. Atlas Lithium’s comprehensive project portfolio and strategic advancements position it as a key player in meeting this demand. The company's extensive mineral rights, efficient processing technologies and solid financial backing ensure its future capability to supply high-quality, low-cost lithium concentrate to the global market. As the world transitions toward greener energy sources, aiming to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, Atlas Lithium’s pivotal role in the green energy revolution could become increasingly apparent.

CURE ALZHEIMER’S FUND PRESENTS THE JEFFREY L. MORBY PRIZE FOR EXCEPTIONAL RESEARCH

Alzheimer’s Disease Research Foundation

Cure Alzheimer’s Fund, a nonprofit dedicated to funding the most promising research to prevent, slow or reverse Alzheimer’s disease, has announced the recipients of the inaugural Jeffrey L. Morby Prize. Senior author David M. Holtzman, M.D., and first author Xiaoying Chen, Ph.D., both of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, were selected by their peers for their paper “Microglia-Mediated T Cell Infiltration Drives Neurodegeneration in Tauopathy,” published in Nature in March 2023. The Morby Prize is named in honor of the late Co-Founder of Cure Alzheimer’s Fund, Jeffrey L. Morby, who inspired the nonprofit’s mission 20 years ago to fund research as a path to ending Alzheimer’s disease. Mr. Morby passed away in September 2023. Established this year, the Morby prize will be awarded annually to the senior and first authors of a recent scientific publication that transforms the fundamental understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and opens new paths to translate scientific results into effective ways to prevent, diagnose or treat the disease. This year’s award included $200,000 for the senior author’s lab for Alzheimer’s disease-related research. “Recognizing researchers for a paper selected by peer scientists for breakthrough thinking and benefit to the Alzheimer’s community befits Jeff’s wonderful legacy of empowering scientists to achieve rigorous and innovative science,” said Meg Smith, CEO of Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. “The many extraordinary CureAlz-funded projects that resulted in published papers in 2022 and 2023 made the competition for this award fierce, and the endorsement of this paper by their peers speaks to the importance of the work of Drs. Holtzman and Chen and their co-authors. Their compelling data challenge the old paradigm that the adaptive immune system has little role in neurodegenerative disease, and by doing so opens new avenues to explore for effective intervention in Alzheimer’s disease.” Added Dr. Holtzman: ”Both Xiaoying Chen and I and our many outstanding co-authors are very honored to receive recognition for the work in our recently published paper. There remain many unanswered questions about the exact role of the adaptive immune response in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. I think this work along with work from others in the field is pushing us to understand how important adaptive immunity is in Alzheimer’s disease and other tauopathies, as well as whether targeting it will ultimately be therapeutically beneficial to people.” About The Holtzman Lab David M. Holtzman, Ph.D. is a neurologist and neuroscientist who has focused much of his efforts over the past 30 years on trying to better understand mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration, particularly as they are relevant to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Xiaoying Chen, Ph.D., was a postdoc research associate in the Holtzman Lab and is first author of the winning paper. The Holtzman Lab at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has published extensively on the neurobiology of apoE as it relates to the innate immune system and how apoE and other factors such as neuronal activity and sleep influence Aβ and tau metabolism, their accumulation, and their effects in the brain.

The $Bobby Token launches at Consensus 2024, and announces Kennedy Campaign Community Activator, Kyle Kemper, as Advisor.

Plato AI

Austin, Texas, May 29, 2024 - (PlatoAI) -- The $Bobby Politifi Meme Token, trading on Uniswap under the ticker $BOBBY, has announced its highly anticipated relaunch at Consensus 2024 (29-31 May, 2024, Texas, USA). The official launch event will take place on May 29, 2024, marking a new chapter for the token that has rapidly evolved from a meme coin into a powerful movement supporting Kennedy’s beliefs and his fight for crypto’s future. $Bobby is more than just a token; it is a movement that resonates with the ideals of independence in the face of a captured, secretive, and centralized government — a cause championed by independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. AT CONSENSUS… The $Bobby token has sponsored Kyle Kemper’s Kennedy24 bus, which will be parked in front of the Consensus event venue. The team, with Kyle at the fore, will be handing out Kennedy24 and $Bobby merchandise to the event’s crypto-enthusiast attendees, and are planning a few other surprises. THE JOURNEY SO FAR… The $Bobby Token originally launched at ETH Denver under the name RFKJ, and hit an ATH earlier this year with a $35m market cap. Based on community feedback, it has been rebranded and is relaunching using the name ‘Bobby’ by which Kennedy is affectionately called by his friends, family and supporters. This strategic move underscores the project's commitment to listening to its community and evolving to better meet its needs and aspirations. In a market crowded with political meme coins, the $Bobby Token stands out by having real substance behind it. They have already donated almost $100,000 to Kennedy-aligned causes, they churn out some of the most viral Kennedy content online, and are becoming a leading figure in pro-Kennedy social media circles - with over 1M views on their socials last month alone. Kennedy has frequently articulated his support for cryptocurrencies, highlighting their potential to combat inflation and provide independence from government and monopolistic banking systems. "Cryptocurrency takes control away from the government and from the monopolistic banking system, which uses money printing to shift wealth upward to the oligarchy of billionaires while impoverishing regular Americans," Kennedy recently remarked. And he asserted in a recent tweet that "Cryptocurrency is the off-ramp for our addiction to the Federal Reserve. It’s the best hedge against inflation.” KYLE KEMPER JOINS AS ADVISOR Kyle Kemper, a renowned figure in the cryptocurrency space, has joined the $Bobby Token team as an advisor. With over a decade of experience in cryptocurrency, Kemper is poised to bring his extensive knowledge, creativity, and passionate advocacy to the $Bobby Token. His involvement is expected to drive community development and global awareness through innovative crypto solutions. Kemper was recently interviewed on The Tucker Carlson network, where he speaks, among other things, about fighting for freedom and how a more involved population by integrating society in decision making can be enabled through blockchain. "I am excited to join the $Bobby team as an advisor," said Kyle Kemper. "I believe that this token has the potential to drive community development, raise global awareness, create engaging memetic content, and make a significant impact through donations to causes in need. The vision behind $Bobby aligns perfectly with my own beliefs about the power of decentralization to effect positive change…and it’s fun!” About $Bobby Politifi Meme Token $Bobby Politifi Meme Token is a cryptocurrency designed to harness the power of community, memes, and blockchain technology to drive independence. Trading on Uniswap under the ticker symbol BOBBY, the token focuses on community development, global awareness, and impactful donations. Originally launched at ETH Denver as RFKJ, the token has been rebranded and relaunched at Consensus Texas 2024 to better align with its community and be more fun. The $Bobby Token is more than just a cryptocurrency; it is a movement. By leveraging the power of memes and the blockchain, $Bobby aims to foster a vibrant community, amplify important causes, and provide substantial support through impactful donations. The token's relaunch marks a new chapter in its journey, with Kyle Kemper's advisory role set to enhance its strategic direction and outreach.
