Trillion Energy’s New Gas Wells Exceed Expectations Explains CEO Art Halleran

from Mining Stock Education

Arthur Halleran, CEO of Trillion Energy (CSE: TCF  –  OTCQB: TRLEF  –  Frankfurt, Z62, Forum), stated: “The Guluc-2 well marks a significant success and will be an excellent producer for years to come. It is the fourth successful gas well in our program, which has now been significantly de-risked from both a geological and engineering standpoint. Guluc-2 is the longest reach well to date -over 3 kilometers horizontal distance. The Rig is now mobilizing to drill the Bayhanli gas pool, a proven reserve never previously produced.”

On March 28, 5.5 metres of the lower natural gas sands in the Guluc-2 well were perforated and tested. Flow rates peaked at a rate of 16.35 MMcf/day. Shut-in pressure was measured at 2,000 psi. The well will now enter long-term production with an initial production rate of about 6 MMcf/d.

As previously press released, the Guluc-2 well discovered 73 metres of gas pay across 14 separate intervals. Current flow test results and production is from only 6 meters of gas pay; 67 meters remains to be perforated in the future ensuring a long-term production horizon for the well.

Trillion is an oil and gas producing company with multiple assets throughout Turkiye and Bulgaria. The Company is 49% owner of the SASB natural gas field, one of the Black Sea’s first and largest-scale natural gas development projects; a 19.6% (except three wells with 9.8%) interest in the Cendere oil field; and in Bulgaria, the Vranino 1-11 block, a prospective unconventional natural gas property.

Trillion Energy also has tremendous blue-sky potential on its natural gas license areas which it is currently seeking to expand.  The company’s SASB gas field is located just 100km south of the largest gas discovery (19 TCF+) in 30 years in Europe and is the only nearology play in the region.  Art is planning to test the most prospective structures he has identified in 2024 and beyond.

Markets in Rally Mode for Today with Nick Santiago (Ep #479)

from Daily Market Wisdom with Nick Santiago

For more than 20 years, Master Trader Nick Santiago has been beating the markets. He’s made some incredible calls along the way and now he’s looking to spread the word. There’s no reason that the average trader should be coming up short. So now we’ve started a daily show to bring you up to date on the latest market developments. Nick will be sharing trades and concepts and discussing current trends.

Today:

1. The markets are in rally mode today. The move higher is being led by tech, but it is really broad based as most every industry group is higher. Lately, I have been watching the Regional Bank ETF (KRE) for guidance and that is acting well so far today. After all, the financial stocks are the most important sector to follow since we have a banking crisis on our hands right now.

2. Another very important industry group to follow is the semiconductors (SMH). Today, they are trading higher by over 2% so we must respect that for the moment. This group remains strong despite trading into a lot of resistance. Semiconductor leaders like Nvidia (NVDA and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) are holding near multi month highs and that is positive for the group.

3. Gold is backing off a little today, but it rallied yesterday. So while gold is overbought it remains strong right now. Please understand, gold is up on fear and often that is when the strongest and fastest moves come in the precious metal.

4. Bitcoin is catching a solid bid today trading higher by 4% to 28,400. This has been very strong lately and should still have more upside in the near term. Unfortunately, the bigger picture outlook has not changed, so enjoy the rally while it lasts.

Inside Uranium and the Nuclear Future with Justin Huhn

from Kerry Lutz's Financial Survival Network

The raging bull on uranium since the introduction of the ETF has been a catalyst for driving uranium prices higher. Here to talk specifically on this sector is Justin Huhn, the Proprietor of Uranium Insider, who comes on the show to discuss where things are headed. Justin describes learning about the Uranium thesis through a podcast back in 2016; he was intrigued by the performance of the previous bull market and investors’ success, and more significantly, the prospect of something like this happening again. What happened next was the transition from a simple supply and demand story to a nuclear renaissance of sorts, with the gradual re-introduction of nuclear reactors occurring in several parts of the world. Justin explains how this trend will likely expand, and how our energy philosophy is developing as a result. Tune in for more valuable insight.

Trading 101: A Professional Stock Market Trader & Investor’s Career Journey with Anmol Singh

from Kerry Lutz's Financial Survival Network

How do you make money in today’s markets? Is there a particular trading methodology or system that you can use to outperform the markets? This episode follows the journey of Anmol Singh through his career as a trader as he recalls what is what like starting out in the markets, and how he got to where he is today.

His prop firm experience allowed him to make mistakes early on; with good risk parameters in place and smaller amounts of money to trade, Anmol had about 2-3 years of real trial and error before he was able to start making a living off of trading.

We cover some trading fails, what makes a good Live Traders student, and the importance of well defined systems for trading. Tune in for more great insight.

Oil Shale Era Coming to an End with Grant Norwood

from Kerry Lutz's Financial Survival Network

Grant Norwood comes on the show to give his take on the state of the oil patch, and it looks like the shale era is coming to an end—for oil, at least.

Time to Sell Your Mortgage with Abby Shemesh

from Kerry Lutz's Financial Survival Network

The secondary market for mortgages is gaining a lot of attention, and Abby Shemesh, the Co-Founder and Chief Acquisitions Officer of Amerinote Xchange, joins us in this episode to discuss note buying and the opportunities in this sector with relevance to the current economy. Abby started his career in originations—the primary mortgage market—and learned about the secondary market as the company he was with started to expand across the East coast. He made the full transition to this market in 2006, founding Amerinote Xchange, and hasn’t looked back since. This market became saturated in 2008 when more people started to discover secondary strategy; today, Abby says that they are now experiencing tremendous activity that they haven’t seen in 14 years. They expect to see increased owner financing—accounting for the lag from the time that interest rates go up—and predict that a lot of the notes created in 2023 will hit the market around this time next year. Furthermore, Abby dives into the note buying/selling process, touching on the criteria for selling a mortgage, the benefits of seller financing, and what determines the attractiveness of a note. Tune in for more useful insight on the secondary market.

Lies, Nuttery & Craziness Everywhere in America – James Howard Kunstler

by Greg Hunter
USA Watchdog

Renowned author and journalist James Howard Kunstler (JHK) has been complaining and pointing out that the American public is told one lie after another by the Lying Legacy Media (LLM), the government and the medical community. This kind of lying, according to JHK, is pure treason by all parties, from the 600 million CV19 bioweapon/vax injections, to the crumbling banking system, to the war in Ukraine. Let’s start with the genocide of the CV19vax. JHK says, “They are pretending that they didn’t cause any damage, and they are ignoring their own assembled statistics, and they don’t want to paint a realistic picture for the American public to see what the consequences were for their vaccination program. . . . I don’t think they can suppress the reality of it that much longer. There are just too many people who know too many people who have been injured or killed by the vaccines. The basic problem is dishonesty puts you in a place of weakness, and the truth puts you in a position of strength. Eventually, if you are not being honest with yourself and the other people around you, you are going to be found out. . . . They have to keep doubling and tripling down on narratives that are manifestly untrue, and pretty soon I think people are going to be super pissed off about how all this went down.”

“We’re the Sucker”

by James Rickards
Daily Reckoning

I’ve written at length about how Ukraine is badly losing its war with Russia.

The U.S. and U.K. media have been a continuous source of misinformation and lies on this topic, so it’s not surprising that most Americans believe that Russia is losing badly.

But it simply isn’t true.

Over 200,000 dead Ukrainian soldiers speak as if from the grave about how badly Ukraine is losing. They’ve lost much of their best personnel and are sending fresh troops to the front lines with only rudimentary training. Many of them don’t last more than a couple of days.

On the other hand, Russia is in the process of mobilizing 400,000 new troops. That’s in addition to perhaps 400,000 now in Ukraine, and 300,000 or more in reserve.

What is the Covid Cult? Four Signs You Need to Watch Out For…

by Dr. Chris Martenson
Chris Martenson’s Peak Prosperity

What we call the center mass of our culture, “the mainstream” if you will, is behaving and operating like a cult.

Without any significant institutional opposition, the full power of cult programming was unleashed on the people of the US, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Europe with devastating results.

Families were torn apart. Friendships irrevocably altered. Colleagues lost.

If we take an open-minded look at the main practices of traits of cults, we discover that the so-called “normal” center mass of western cultures shared practically every one of them in common.

“Something Very Dramatic Has Changed”: Matt Taibbi Says Democrats Ditched Free Speech

from Zero Hedge

Independent journalist Matt Taibbi – of recent “Twitter Files” fame – has exposed the fact that civil liberties are no longer popular among Democrats. Taibbi appeared on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo” to reiterate his perspective that the modern Democratic Party no longer represents the values of the everyday American.

“About all of this — Matt, how do you feel about all of this? I know before you started discovering this bad behavior, you identified as a Democrat, and now you’ve got all of your friends, quote-unquote, in the media attacking you for exposing this,” Bartiromo asked.

“Yeah, it’s funny, I mean, I was raised in a traditional ACLU liberal, I believed in free speech all my life. That was one of the things, frankly, that attracted me to the Democratic Party when I was a kid, the idea that we were the party that believed in letting everybody have a say, and we’ll just make a better argument, and that’s how the system works,” Taibbi said.

As Senate Banking Committee Convenes Hearing On Exploding Banks, an FDIC Chart Shows the Banking Crisis is Far From Over

by Pam Martens and Russ Martens
Wall Street on Parade

Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH), the Chair of the Senate Banking Committee, will convene a hearing this morning at 10 a.m. to take testimony from federal bank regulators on why the second and third largest bank failures in U.S. history occurred within two days of each other this month. (A number of other regional banks have seen their share prices plunge this month.)

The two banks that failed and were taken over by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) were Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank. Both had experienced bank runs in March and both had extreme exposure to uninsured deposits. One of the witnesses at today’s hearing, Martin Gruenberg, Chair of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), explains as follows in his written testimony for today’s hearing:

New IRS Report Provides Fascinating Glimpse Into Your “Fair Share”

by Simon Black
Sovereign Man

Every year the IRS publishes a detailed report on the taxes it collects. And the statistics are REALLY interesting.

A few weeks ago the agency released its most recent report. So this is the most objective, up-to-date information that exists about taxes in America.

This is important, because, these days, it’s common to hear progressive politicians and woke mobsters calling for higher income earners and wealthier Americans to pay their “fair share” of taxes.

But this report, directly from the US agency whose job it is to tax Americans, shows the truth:

The Most Splendid Housing Bubbles in America, March Update: Biggest Monthly Price Drops Now in Las Vegas, San Francisco, Seattle, Phoenix, Dallas, Denver

Double-digit drops from peak in San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, San Diego, Phoenix, Las Vegas.

by Wolf Richter
Wolf Street

[…] This time, it’s not an unemployment crisis that is taking down the housing market. The labor market is still tight with big pay increases – though the tech and social media segments have begun to wobble. But it’s mortgage rates that have reverted to the pre-QE normal levels of 6% to 7% amid CPI inflation in about the same range. And they’re clashing with home prices that had spiked maniacally under the Fed’s QE and interest rate repression.

And so home prices dropped further, according to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Index for “January” – which is a three-month moving average of home sales that were entered into public records in November, December, and January, reflecting deals made largely in October through December.

Rand Paul: ‘I’m 100% Confident That Fauci Lied to Us’

by Jeff Poor
Breitbart.com

Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) spoke on his latest evidence regarding the origins of COVID-19.

According to Paul, evidence indicates that former National Institution of Allergy and Infectious Disease Dr. Anthony Fauci had lied about how the virus came to be.

“I’m 100% confident that Fauci lied to us and that they were doing dangerous research there,” he said. “I would say all of the evidence I have seen so far points towards it coming from a lab. And it all adds together, and proximity makes a difference. The fact that the lab is within walking distance of where most of the coronaviruses of the world, the largest collection of coronaviruses in the world is within walking distance of where this started — yes, there’s too many coincidences to add up.

Federal Agencies Keep Failing to Legally Interpret the Clean Water Act

The Biden administration is the third administration in a row to fail to issue Clean Water Act regulations that pass judicial scrutiny.

by Christian Britschgi
Reason.com

Whether the Clean Water Act gives the federal government the power to regulate dry riverbeds, isolated streams, and land next to wetlands remains clear as mud, as a recent federal court decision illustrates.

This past Monday, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas issued a preliminary injunction against the recently finalized clean water regulations issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Army Corps of Engineers.

Judge Jeffrey Vincent Brown found that plaintiffs—the state governments of Texas and Idaho plus a long list of national trade associations—would likely prevail in their argument that the new rules amount to illegal and/or unconstitutional federal overreach.

Don’t Let Biden’s All-Time Offensive Response To The Nashville Shooting Get Buried

by Tim Meads
Daily Wire

The lapdog media will never give it the attention it deserves, but don’t let President Joe Biden’s all-time offensive response to the Covenant school shooting get buried amidst all the news.

During his first public appearance on Monday, news stations tuned into what they thought was going to be the commander-in-chief addressing the nation, commemorating the lives lost. Instead, for more than two minutes, the president rambled on about ice cream, his wife, “good-looking kids,” and his sister before getting to his remarks about the Nashville tragedy.

Fat, Stupid, and Diverse

by J. Robert Smith
American Thinker

To lift a line from the immortal Dean Wormer: “Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life…” here amended to fat and stupid. Case in point, Alvin Bragg, now the Manhattan district attorney, and a guy who never met a calzone he didn’t eat. Calzones deserve a better fate.

Bragg — who badly wants to carve up Donald J. Trump, but won’t — was boosted into office in November 2021 in yet another spasm of virtue signaling by the Rotted Apple’s smart set, and whose campaign was lubed by dollars from George Soros to the aptly named “Color of Change PAC.”

Bragg is another swell diversity hire. They abound in America’s deteriorating cities. And not incidentally — in fact, importantly — he’s a Soros and establishment sock puppet.

Governance By Artificial Intelligence: The Ultimate Unaccountable Tyranny

by Brandon Smith
Alt Market

It’s no secret that globalist institutions are obsessed with Artificial Intelligence as some kind of technological prophecy. They treat it as if it is almost supernatural in its potential and often argue that every meaningful industrial and social innovation in the near future will owe its existence to AI. The World Economic Forum cites AI as the singular key to the rise of what they call the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.” In their view, there can be no human progress without the influence of AI algorithms, making human input almost obsolete.

This delusion is often promoted by globalist propagandists. For example, take a look at the summarized vision of WEF member Yuval Harari, who actually believes that AI has creative ability that will replace human imagination and innovation. Not only that, but Harari has consistently argued in the past that AI will run the world much better than human beings ever could.
