Altius Receives Final Silicon Royalty Arbitration Award
ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland and Labrador--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS) (OTCQX: ATUSF) Altius Minerals Corporation ('Altius') has received a final award decision by an arbitration tribunal relating to the extents of its royalty interests within the emerging Silicon gold district (Arthur Gold district) in Nevada. The tribunal has determined that the lands that are subject to the Altius 0.5% NSR royalty under the royalty agreement between the parties dated Feb. 20, 2015 include the entirety of those encompassed within the 26.8 km 2 base area of interest (base AOI) described in the royalty agreement and also additional areas around the base AOI that total approximately 168.8 km 2, for a combined royalty area within the district that totals approximately 195.6 km 2. The final award meets the royalty area requirement set out in the recent sales agreement between Altius and Franco-Nevada Corporation for a 1.0% NSR royalty that is to cause an additional US$25 million contingent payment to Altius, following the expiry of any relevant appeal or challenge periods. A map that depicts the royalty area provided for under the final award can be found on our website at About Altius Altius's strategy is to create per share growth through a diversified portfolio of royalty assets that relate to long life, high margin operations. This strategy further provides shareholders with exposures that are well aligned with global growth trends including increasing electricity based market share within energy usage, global infrastructure build and refurbishment growth, increased EAF based steelmaking, steadily increasing agricultural fertilizer requirements and the enhanced appetite for financial asset diversification through precious metals ownership. These macro-trends each hold the potential to cause higher demand for many of Altius's commodity exposures including potash, high purity iron ore, renewable energy, base metals, and gold. In addition, Altius runs a successful Project Generation business that originates mineral projects for sale to developers in exchange for royalties and that has a demonstrated track record of driving outsized direct returns from its overall royalty investment portfolio. Altius has 46,315,304 common shares issued and outstanding that are listed on Canada's Toronto Stock Exchange. It is a member of both the S&P/TSX Small Cap and S&P/TSX Global Mining Indices and the S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index.

Market Already Feels Like a Melt Up, Ed Yardeni Says
00:00 If the Fed were to cut by 50 basis points next month, would you change your view? Would you see this as something other than a head fake? Well, I think with then I would just say we're in a melt up. I mean, it feels like a multiple already. We've seen this the correction at the early at the beginning of the year, we've seen multiples go from 22 forward P for the S & P 500 at the beginning of the year, down to 18. We didn't get down to 15, we didn't get down to ten. The market figured out and kind of agreed with me that the economy was resilient and we're not going to have a recession. And when it did that, suddenly boom, we went right back up to 22. And so the market ain't cheap. And the reality is, if the Fed cuts when there's still, as you said, a lot of ambiguity about whether it really needs a cut, it doesn't really need a 50 basis point cut, let a 25 basis point cut. The administration needs interest rates to come down because they'd like to see the interest cost of the debt come down. But the economy, I think, is going to surprise everybody in the next few months, especially the consumer, as you also indicated, and show some resilience on the consumer part and capital spending. A lot of it is technology related that's going to continue to go. And so I think, you know, as the drums beat for more rate cuts here and we're probably now going to get one in September, and then there'll be expectations for another one after that before the end of the year. I think we're in melt up situation. So, you know, right now I'm still kind of sticking with 6600 and the S & P 500. But by year end, because I, I think there's still a couple of indicators here that might suggest that maybe the Fed shouldn't be lowering rates, but absent that, we could go right back to 60 907,000 by the end of the year in a melt up situation. And the problem with melt ups is that followed by meltdowns.
