My guest on the show today is Rene Goehrum, President, CEO and Chairman of BioSyent (TSX-V: RX). BioSyent is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on commercializing products that the company says provides a distinguishable benefit to patients and their healthcare providers and, according to their website, is known for their ability to effectively and efficiently introduce new products to the Canadian market. BioSyent is, as the company states on their website, actively sought out as the Canadian market partner of choice by brand innovators with niche or specialty products looking for a trusted partner. The first time we interviewed Rene was back in June 2013. At the beginning of June 2013, the stock was trading around $1.30, and as of recording of this introduction, the morning of September 15, 2023, the stock closed at $7.85. Furthermore, as of Q2 2023, the company has reported 52 consecutive profitable quarters, according to their Q2 2023 results presentation. Many of you listening know the BioSyent story well, and yet despite the company's performance during Rene's tenure, I think some of you would agree that BioSyent is the most well-known unknown company. I thought it was time for folks that don't know the company's history and where they were going to have Rene on the show to chat about all of that, plus: Capital allocation discipline and approach Criteria for in-licensing new products, and; Rene's "promised land" / long-term vision for BioSyent With that, please enjoy my conversation with Rene Goehrum, President, CEO and Chairman of BioSyent.

My guest on the show today is Tobias Carlisle, Founder and Managing Director of Acquirers Funds and Co-Host, Value After Hours. It's been well over a year since we've had Toby on the show, and I invited him back for his annual appearance. I feel like a broken record on the pod recently - we've talked a lot about how MicroCaps are in the doldrums (that's putting it nicely), redemptions + no inflows, Small/Micro strategies can't raise new capital, etc... We haven't really talked about the quantitative reason (looking at the data) for why the confluence of all the events are happening. Toby is data king, and he does not disappoint in providing his perspective on what the data is telling us, including one semi-bold prediction about the big "R"-word (recession).

BK Technologies' SaaS business focuses on new, innovative public safety smartphone services that will make the first responders safer or more productive.

My guest on the show today is Donald Porter, Portfolio Manager and most recently an Equity Research Analyst at Wellington Management. I am extremely grateful that I've had the opportunity to host this podcast for the last 8 years - I say this because, this sounds crazy to say, I last hosted Donald on the show in July 2016, when he was at DGHM to discuss his first white paper "MicroCaps Value Uncovered." We were reconnected by Doug Porter from Acuitas Investments (no relation by the way - thank you Doug), and it just so happens that Donald had updated his white paper on why MicroCap stocks still present a compelling investment opportunity in 2023. We chat about the current MicroCap environment, international MicroCaps, his quick takes on various sectors and more!

My guest on the show today is Jonathan Boyar, President of Boyar Research. I recently saw Jonathan as a guest on the Value After Hours podcast with Tobias Carlisle and Jake Taylor, and invited him on to get his perspective on the markets in 2023, as well as his take on MicroCap performance. As the title states, we've been experiencing a double whammy in MicroCaps: poor stock performance over the last two years and allocators are not distributing funds to MicroCap strategists. We talk at length about why this environment is fertile ground for MicroCap investors that know what they are doing. Jonathan and I also talk about his latest venture: the Boyar Research substack, where you can actually get Jonathan's latest MicroCap picks as a subscriber - the link to the Boyar Research substack is in the show notes.

My guest on the show today is Paul Andreola, Founder and Editor of SmallCap Discoveries. Paul had a great idea in advance of the conference that we do a short breakdown of all the Presenting Companies currently listed (all subject to change) to participate in the event. I like to be very collaborative when putting together our events and what companies folks would be interested in seeing, and that was especially the case for our first event up in Vancouver - Paul and his team were integral to that process. We just opened our 1x1 meeting platform this week for participants to start requesting meetings with CEOs, and so we thought it would be cool to share some quick insights to get you fired up to participate in the event - it's not too late to register by the way: planetmicrocapshowcase.com.

My guest on the show today is Gary Mishuris, Managing Partner and CIO at Silver Ring Value Partners. As I've mentioned on every show leading up, we have our conference, the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VANCOUVER coming up on September 6-7, 2023 (planetmicrocapshowcase.com for more information), and it is a great opportunity for attendees to meet with MicroCap management teams and ask them questions. We've covered this topic quite often here on the show, but: 1. We haven't in a while, and 2. Gary's article, same as today's episode title, I think provides a solid framework/check list of questions that every investor could refer to when thinking about what they want to speak with management about. My biggest takeaway that stuck with me is asking yourself the following: "what are you trying to accomplish" in your interaction with management. I think most folks go into these conversations and their goal is thinking they can get CEOs to give them information that's either borderline or non-public altogether. Most management teams are wise to those tricks and will lose respect for you as an investor because they get the game you're trying to play. But asking yourself "what are you trying to accomplish", perhaps trying to build a relationship with the CEO or getting a feel of the CEOs values, and then constructing questions around that, I think can help you immensely with getting the results you're hoping for. There's even more quality insight from Gary, so hopefully you'll see its not just another "How To" talk to management episode.

My guest on the show today is Simon Handrahan, Editor of the Margin of Safety Investing Newsletter. He recently shared a Tweet (or a post now, an "X", I don't know), where he asked his audience: "Individual investors: why don't you invest in illiquid microcaps?" When you deal with MicroCaps, there's a good chance you'll come across a company you might like that meets all your criteria, and it barely trades. This is not news to most of you, but I thought the question that Simon posted on Twitter/X got me thinking: how illiquid is too illiquid? Is the lack of liquidity THE edge when investing in MicroCap stocks? So, I invited on Simon to chat further about all of this plus his theses on stocks currently in his portfolio: Constellation Software CSU, OTC Markets OTCM, Atlas Engineered AEP on the Venture and Galaxy Gaming GLXZ.

My guest on the show today is Paul, a small and microcap investor better known by his Twitter handle @Investmentideen. We've been going back and forth on doing an interview for a while, and he recently published a thread on how Paul Andreola and Brandon Mackie's investing framework, "Small Cap Discovery", has impacted his investing process. The thread is in the show notes by the way. Paul and Brandon are great friends of Planet MicroCap, and the presentation they did on this framework back in 2016, I was in the room for that, not to mention the many times both of them have been on the podcast. So, I thought it was really cool that Paul found this framework and his been able to extrapolate from there a Small/MicroCap strategy that works for him. We talk about the framework, how Paul implements it and some examples of investments he's made where he's benefitted, as well as made mistakes.

Corero's technology provides scalable protection capabilities against both external DDoS attackers and internal DDoS threats, in even the most complex edge and subscriber environments, ensuring internet service availability and uptime.

Needless to say, the need for cyber security solutions is on the rise, and I wanted to better understand how Corero is addressing these industry tailwinds, as well as: How Corero's DDoS protection solutions are unique and different compared to their peers Nature of their partnerships with firms like Juniper Networks, which owns 9.9% of Corero From a corporate perspective, being a publicly-traded MicroCap on the AIM exchange Recent financial performance and executive management shake-up; and, Corero's 3-5 year vision for the company and the inflection points that will get them there With that, please enjoy my conversation with Phil Richards, CFO of Corero Network Security.

We discuss how the global energy crisis has been temporarily defused, valuations collapsed, tech stocks re-inflated, and what the opportunity set looks like in Oil & Gas small cap-side.

My guest on the show today is Rick Rule, Investor, Speculator and Founder of Rule Investment Media. I haven't had Rick on the show since September 2021 - during that time we've seen gold tap $2,000 an ounce and remain just below, lithium craze and much more. I invited Rick on the show to hear what metals and mining narratives he's been paying attention to in the last 6-12 months and for the next 6-12 months. Rick also does a deep dive on the three reasons why there has been a junior mining MicroCap malaise, his criteria for finding the top 5% junior mining stocks, as well as his thoughts on royalty and streaming companies. Whether you're an active investor in metals and mining, passively follow or even hate the industry all together, my chat with Rick Rule has nuggets of wisdom for each of you.

My guest on the show today is Ryan Hamlin, Co-Founder and CEO of POSaBIT Systems Corporation (CSE: PBIT) (OTCQX: POSAF). POSaBIT is a financial technology company that delivers payment processing and point-of-sale systems for cash-only businesses. POSaBIT specializes in resolving pain points for complex, high-risk, emerging industries like cannabis with an all-in-one solution that is compliant, user-friendly and utilizes top-of-the-line hardware. Let's start by saying that the Cannabis industry has been getting, for lack of a better term, wrecked in the last two years. Almost every sector index and indicator, and publicly-traded cannabis company issuer performance are down. Even when we think that some companies are making progress, they've probably announced not-so-great earnings within the last quarter or two. Despite the nuclear winter we're seeing in Cannabis right now (and for the last couple years now), if we're looking at the big picture, whether cannabis is legalized or not, it's without a doubt not going anywhere. I think we can all agree with that premise. And if so, I wanted to have on a "picks and shovels"-type company to better understand how they are working through the current Cannabis climate, as well as their perspective on the industry as a whole. That's where today's guest, Ryan Hamlin from POSaBIT enters the chat. We had a great conversation what's happening in the Cannabis industry, as well as: Legalization debate within the industry The importance of having a payments infrastructure as a Cannabis retailer POSaBIT's capital allocation strategy, specifically in regards to M&A, and; Ryan's vision for the company in 3-5 years With that, please enjoy my conversation with Ryan Hamlin, Co-Founder and CEO of POSaBIT Systems Corporation.

I got a full panel today for this episode: Andrew Walker, Host of the Yet Another Value Podcast, Jason Hirschman, Managing Director of Hudson 215 Capital and Maj Soueidan, Founder of GeoInvesting.com. Last year when we did the mid-year review, we all needed a nice glass of whiskey to drown our sorrows in the bloodbath of 2022 for MicroCaps. 2023 has been slightly kinder - all major indices have been up on the year and as per usual, Small / MicroCaps have lagged. I invited my esteemed colleagues to talk about all of this and more!

My guest on the show today is Paul Dwyer, Director of Research at Punch & Associates. I recently had Paul's colleague, Howard Punch on the show, and after recording, Howard asked if we had ever done anything on the Russell Rebalance. After spending minutes in the deep Planet MicroCap podcast archives, it turns out, we hadn't! So, I acted on Howard's suggestion and invited his Director of Research to talk about it. We recorded this interview on Wednesday, June 21, 2023, and the Russell Rebalance officially takes effect on Monday, June 26, 2023 - timing couldn't be better on this one.

My guest on the show today is Chris Wood, Chief Investment Officer of RiskHedge. Founded in 2018, Chris and his team at RiskHedge run a newsletter helping subscribers anticipate and profit from the biggest disruptive trends shaping our world. They look at opportunities everywhere, but Chris has an affinity for MicroCaps, where he can deploy his own proprietary CHAOS formula to find disruptive companies within the MicroCap ranks. In our conversation today, Chris shares what his "CHAOS Formula" is (which stands for Change, Hype, Acceleration, Ownership and Size) and applies that formula for a few investment ideas he's looking at. Chris also recently attended our conference, the Planet MicroCap Showcase in Las Vegas, as well as LD Micro, where at both, he did a ton of meetings with management teams - so, I wanted to get his take on the message he's getting from CEOs.

My guest on the show today is Joe Ramelli, Vice President of Business Development for Origin Agritech (NASDAQ: SEED). Origin Agritech Limited, founded in 1997 and headquartered in Zhong-Guan-Cun (ZGC) Life Science Park in Beijing, is a Chinese agricultural technology company. In crop seed biotechnologies, Origin Agritech's phytase corn was the first transgenic corn to receive the Bio-Safety Certificate from China's Ministry of Agriculture, according to the company's website. Three things to get you ready for this interview: 1. I've been wanting to have a US-listed Chinese company on the podcast. US-listed Chinese companies have had a negative perception for a while now in general, and especially amongst US MicroCap investors. Out of curiosity, I wanted to chat with a US-listed Chinese company to better understand how they feel about this and approach investors with a certain narrative, without knowing anything specific about their company. 2. I wanted to interview a US-listed Chinese company that I know has been around for a while, and has some following from other US-based investors I respect (for compliance purposes, this is not an endorsement of the company itself). Origin Agritech has had a long, volatile history since going public in 2006 and have been making headlines recently after receiving GMO approval in China for their corn seed. 3. If you've been listening to this series for a while, you know, I usually only interview C-suite for this podcast. However, in Origin Agritech's case and most other US-listed Chinese companies, English is management's second language. Also, I've known Joe for a long time as an investor, he's been an investor in Origin Agritech since 2008, and has recently been brought on as VP Business Development for the company. There's a lot to unpack with Origin Agritech, and in this interview, we cover all of these topics and more. With that, please enjoy my conversation with Joe Ramelli, Vice President of Business Development for Origin Agritech (NASDAQ: SEED).

I promise you what you are about to hear is not just Paul and I talking about my next event, the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VANCOUVER - taking place September 6-7, 2023. But since you mention it, we are really excited to introduce and welcome you all to my next event on the MicroCap investor conference calendar, the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VANCOUVER - taking place September 6-7, 2023 at the Fairmont Waterfront. Paul Andreola and his team at Smallcap Discoveries are lead sponsors for this event, and will be my personal escort through all of Vancouver. All jokes aside, we wanted to take 20 minutes of your time here today to discuss why we embarked on our first event outside of Las Vegas, why Vancouver, and how we feel this event will fill a void for Canada, which, in my opinion, has one of the best MicroCap investing ecosystems in the world. We already have some really, and I mean really high quality speakers and companies lined-up to participate, and now is your chance to join us as well. To register and attend, please visit PlanetMicroCapShowcase.com to learn more, and be updated on who will be joining us. Like I said, Paul and I aren't just here to promote Vancouver, I also get his thoughts on the first half of 2023 for MicroCaps, Canadian companies in particular, and what he's seeing for the rest of the year. I've had Paul on the show many times, and he is one of the best MicroCap investors in the game, so I'm honored whenever I get a chance to speak with him, let alone garnering his support for our first venture outside Vegas.

My guest on the show today is Garvin Jabusch, Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer for Green Alpha Advisors. I had last spoken Garvin in April 2020 discussing his investing philosophy then a follow up panel in August 2020 about why ESG and impact investing are taking center stage. It's been three years. Suffice it to say, A LOT has changed since then, across the board, as well as the conversation around ESG. You might be hearing this and thinking that you're about to listen to a full-on ESG podcast. Sure, we discuss the changing discourse around ESG/impact investing, but what I found most fascinating is our discussion around the intersectionality of trends and sectors, which is starting to take center stage in sustainability investing.

Electrovaya is a technology-focused company with extensive IP, designs, develops, and manufactures proprietary lithium-ion batteries, battery systems, and battery-related products for energy storage, clean electric transportation, and other specialized applications.

Electrovaya has been in the battery space for over two decades and has had many "lives" and Raj explains. In 2009, when Raj joined the company, it was in the automotive space and that was their main focus as a battery supplier. What's fascinating about Electrovaya's story to me is how they had make the difficult choice to pivot their business strategy, which we discuss at length, as well as: Why the company pivoted away from delivering batteries for the automotive industry to focusing specifically on the material handling vehicles space How Electrovaya has performed since the 2018 pivot Where he would like to see the company in 3-5 years With that, please enjoy my conversation with Dr. Raj DasGupta, CEO of Electrovaya Inc.

My guest on the show today is Howard Punch, President and CIO at Punch & Associates Investment Management, Inc. Punch & Associates is a boutique investment advisory firm that has both a Small Cap and MicroCap Equity Strategy available for their clients. I invited Howard on to learn more about their equity strategies, his firm's approach to investing in MicroCaps, as well as their investing philosophy. We also chatted at the top of the conversation about how he would compare this current pessimism in Small/MicroCaps to other times in history where this pessimism existed - his take I found really interesting. As the title states, we did spend the majority of the time talking about categorizing MicroCap CEOs as either "Missionaries" or "Mercenaries", and how deciphering between the two has helped Howard better understand which management teams he wants to invest in.

My guest on the show today is Darren Chervitz, Portfolio Manager at Jacob Asset Management on the Discovery Fund Strategy. This was the last recording I did prior to the conference, and I'll be sharing the live podcast from Vegas next week. In the last 12-18 months, I've noticed a few firms changing the name of the "MicroCap" strategy to the "Discovery" fund or strategy, and there's a bit more nuance to its reasoning that from a marketing perspective, can be more inclusive.

My guest on the show today is Vijar Kohli, Co-Founder of Golden Door Asset Management, and is a Keynote Speaker at our upcoming conference, the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS. He'll be speaking on Wednesday, April 26 at 12:30pm in Track 1 following Chris Tessin's presentation. We titled Vijar's presentation in Vegas, "MicroCaps vs. Failed Startups" - the idea for which came from all these failed SPACs in recent years, and perhaps they would've been better going public a different way (or in some cases, not at all). MicroCaps provide a level of transparency (or at least they should and legally obligated to) that small, private venture-stage companies cannot, as well as an opportunity for investors to participate before they get picked up by institutional buyers. Vijar and I talk about this dynamic, the problem with public markets for MicroCaps and some especially hot takes that you'll have to tune in to hear.

My guest on the show today is Warren Kruger, CEO of Greystone Logistics, Inc. (OTCQB: GLGI). Greystone Logistics, Inc. is focused on the fast-growing plastic segment of the $9.5 billion pallet industry, with its manufacturing facility located in Bettendorf, IA and its Executive offices located in Tulsa, OK. For those wondering what a pallet is, those are the flat wooden structures that heavy goods are put so that they can be moved using a fork-lift truck. One of the key differentiators is that they manufacture recycled plastic pallets vs. those traditional wooden pallets that you've for sure seen at your local Costco. While some folks might see the pallet industry as a sexy business, most folks in our investing world would lovingly refer to Greystone as a classic boring company. Some of my favorite interviews are with classic boring companies because I get to learn more about a topic that I never thought I would. That's why I invited on Warren, to share more about Greystone Logistics, and: How Greystone's pallets are differentiated and unique compared to wood pallets, and other plastic pallet manufacturers Warren has been with the company for 10+ years, how has the company evolved during his time there Their strategy for attacking the plastic segment of the $9.5 billion pallet industry; and, Post-COVID, supply chain issues and whether this has been a tailwind for Greystone Logistics.

As the title states, Acuitas is the largest allocator to MicroCap managers in the world - their Microcap strategy pursues its investment objective using a multi-manager process by allocating assets among one or more high confidence managers that invest in inefficient segments of the equity markets. I wanted to learn more about their MicroCap fund of funds strategy and their experience working with MicroCap managers. I've had a number of conversations with MicroCap fund managers in recent months, and in addition to the rough performance amongst MicroCap stocks, redemptions and lack of in-flows have also been a cause for concern. And what's worse, everyone and their grandparents agree, almost every quality MicroCap (and small cap) have taken haircuts across the board - now is one of the best times to dive deep on names trading at much cheaper prices. Managers need new in-flows in order to participate. This is where allocators like Acuitas enter the conversation. Chris will be doing a keynote presentation in Las Vegas on Wednesday, April 26, 2023 - if you're a MicroCap portfolio manager, investor or family office, he and his partner, Doug Porter want to meet you. Hear what Chris and I discuss, and then join us all in person in Vegas for the opportunity to network and meet with an allocator; conferences might charge up to $5000 to meet with folks like Chris and Doug - our event is complimentary to all buy-side.

Global Crossing Airlines Group, also known as GlobalX, is a US 121 domestic flag and supplemental Airline flying the Airbus A320 family aircraft. GlobalX flies as a passenger ACMI and charter airline serving the US, Caribbean, European and Latin American markets. In 2023, GlobalX entered ACMI cargo market flying the A321 freighter. I found Global Crossing Airlines Group on several forums I subscribe to, notably on MicroCapClub, and you might be asking yourself, oh boy, an airline, here we go. However, since starting the company in January 2020, Global Crossing Airlines has grown significantly and I wanted to better understand how and why this occurred, plus: Global Crossing's growth goals and how they hope to achieve them Original thesis for the company's founding Addressing downside risks/adding more planes to the fleet; and How folks understand the company With that, please enjoy my conversation with Ryan Goepel, CFO of Global Crossing Airlines Group, Inc.

My guests on the show today are Josh Womack and Tom Carey from Womack Capital Partners. This episode is especially timely with our conference coming up in Las Vegas because, as we covered here many times before, when you invest in a MicroCap stocks, you're primarily making a bet on the jockey aka management. That means part of your due diligence process, in my opinion, should be listening to conference calls, interviews, presentations management has done, as well as meet with management in a 1x1 meeting and asking as many questions as you have. We've done many episodes discussing the do's and don'ts of speaking with management, but surprisingly, we'd never done anything about how we should think about the information conveyed. That's where Josh and Tom enter the conversation, both of whom have an immense amount of experience meeting with management. Tom's background, in particular, I think differentiates their research process - his transition from doing investor relations full-time to being on the buy-side I think offers unique insight from someone who's been in the room with management teams discussing how they want to speak with shareholders.

My guest on the show today is Anthony Ambrose, President & CEO of Data I/O (NASDAQ: DAIO). Data I/O (NASDAQ: DAIO) is a global provider of advanced data and security deployment solutions. These solutions are used by some of the world’s largest manufacturers, programming centers, and contract manufacturers to securely program integrated circuits and bring their electronic devices to life. Virtually every electronic product today incorporates one or more programmable semiconductor devices that contain data and operating instructions essential for the proper operation of the product. You hear that description, and one thinks, "ok, I can wrap my head around that", but then when you ask the question after, "ok, well what does that mean?", that's when the fun part of being a hightech MicroCap comes into play. Now, what do I mean when I say that - well, not every MicroCap story is as simple as a consumer goods story or some SaaS platform - that is both what provides opportunity and, conversely, barriers to entry if something sounds too complicated. In the case of Data I/O, they are somewhere in the middle, but I say all of this because we spend the first part of the interview working through the best way to understand their business for the every day, non-hightech investor. We also discuss: Automotive electronics growth and their place in this market Understanding the SentriX platform, and; Vision for the company for the next 3-5 years With that, please enjoy my conversation with Anthony Ambrose, President & CEO of Data I/O.

My guest on the show today is Maj Soueidan, Founder & CEO of GeoInvesting.com. In my opinion, Maj is a legend in MicroCap investing. In my nearly 10+ years of getting to know Maj, his investing style, and how he evaluates companies, he's on the Mount Rushmore of MicroCap investors of the last 20+ years. This is the reason I invite Maj to be a guest on my show, as well as headline any conference we do. When he speaks, you should listen, and if you have a chance to meet him and chat with him, you should. Maj will be hosting a Top Tier Track on Day 2 of our upcoming conference: the Planet MicroCap Showcase, happening on April 25-27, 2023. This has been an idea we've chatted about for years and finally making it happen. Basically, MicroCap management teams that fit Maj's "Top Tier" criteria (which we describe in today's pod), will be giving 10-15 overviews of their businesses followed by Q&A with Maj and the audience. I'm really excited about this part of our agenda, and wanted to dedicate an episode of the pod to, yes shamelessly plug our upcoming event in Vegas (not going to deny that), but also discuss what the idea is, Maj's Top Tier criteria, why this criteria is important to digest with the current state of the markets and discuss a few names that will be participating. Maj and I always have a fun, lively conversation and this should serve as a fun preview of what you can expect in Las Vegas if you choose to join us.

My guest on the show today is Patrick Flood, Investment Analysts for the LATAM Stocks Newsletter. Latin America consists of 20 countries and a population of more than 650 million people, and it is one of, maybe even the most under followed and under invested regions in the world. Is it geopolitical risk (no doubt there's that and not diminishing the significance of that risk whatsoever - we talk about it at length), but could it also be, well - it's also really hard to find good information about investments in Latin America, especially in English. That's where Patrick and his newsletter, LATAM Stocks enters the conversation. He's an expat, who's been living in Brazil full time for the last 10 years, After starting out working at a boutique asset manager, he moved on to work as an M&A analyst at a family office, then went on to work as Chief Gringo (yes that’s an official job title, look it up) at one of the largest crypto currency exchanges in Latin America. Equity analysis is his first love, and he does the dirty work, a la one of our favorites here, Paul Andreola - Patrick goes through every local Latin American exchange, and dives deep into their financial statements. Needlesstosay, I'm now a fan, and really enjoyed my conversation with Patrick covering all things Latin America.

Andrew will be hosting three (3) LIVE podcast conversations, three separate guests with three different ideas being discussed. We are about TWO MONTHS AWAY now, so be sure to register at www.PlanetMicroCapShowcase.com. Andrew and I also recently announced our collaboration on his show, Yet Another Value Podcast. I truly think that he has the best show breaking down investors' ideas, and in my opinion, in a world where there's enough "guru"-like pods out there, I think Yet Another Value Pod provides so much value as a listener to hear quality conversations about investment ideas. Today, we chat about working together, how this came out, our own takes on the financial podcast arena (already alluded to my main take here), as well as a debrief on what he learned from his investment in Twitter last year, corporate governance takes based on a current idea Andrew is working on and we close out on what to expect in Las Vegas for the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS!

For today's show, I invited back on Yaron Naymark, Founder and Portfolio Manager at 1 Main Capital. Last time I had Yaron on the show, it was in July 2022 chatting about the First Half 2022 MicroCap bloodbath, which of course we all know, got worse (Planet MicroCap Index was down ~40% for the year). I've had a few investors on here to start 2023, where we dissected 2022, what worked, what didn't, and while Yaron and I start off the conversation that way, the reason I always enjoy having him on the show is that he has a unique ability to simplify. I just have to ask one question on what happened in 2022, and I think Yaron covers that question as succinctly and clearly as anyone; in 15 minutes no less. So, we chat about 2022, recognizing mistakes, improving his process, his 2023 outlook and a short back and forth about morality with investing.

For today's show, I invited on David Wenger, Founder and CEO of ShareIntel. Since the start of 2023, I've started seeing more news releases saying, "ABCD Company Reports on Ongoing Investigation into Potentially Improper and Illegal Trading Activity in the Company’s Common Stock." This was a first for me, and a trend that I wanted to understand better: is this the same fight as the AMC/Gamestop short squeeze that galvanized retail investors to fight back against Wall Street? If so, are select MicroCaps taking advantage of these same retail investors - the idea being that Wall Street is potentially illegally naked shorting our stocks too, come join us in the fight. Or, are select MicroCaps utilizing tools, like ShareIntel, to genuinely understand what is happening in their company's stock in order to do something about it, protect long-term shareholders, or perhaps stop the bleeding because they'll need to raise more growth capital, which will already be dilutive. I invited on David to help me understand these questions and more.
