Another week in the markets and new all time highs for US equities. On the flip side gold also put in a good week closing above $1,300 but the stocks are still lagging. We also have the US dollar flattening this week and putting the rebound back in question. The real standout continues to be Bitcoin that is skyrocketing to over $5,500 / Bitcoin. We discuss all of these topics in the first hour of the show.

I really appreciate all the comments and emails for all of you throughout the week. I had a couple new companies introductions that you can find links to below. Please remember that when I introduce a company I am looking for feedback from everyone. I do my best to filter through all the companies in the sector before these introductions but hearing your thoughts really helps!
