Westwater Resources says recent US Department of Energy announcement good news for company

Westwater Resources Inc

Westwater Resources CCO Jon Jacobs joined Steve Darling from Proactive to delve into the recent guidance issued by the Department of Energy regarding Foreign Entities of Concern, and how this development relates to the Inflation Reduction Act and the electric vehicle (EV) tax credit. Jacobs shed light on the significance of this announcement, which signals the U.S. government's proactive stance in bolstering the growth of a domestic industry. One of the key takeaways from this guidance is the government's recognition of the importance of providing domestic companies access to capital while simultaneously creating incentives for these companies to shift their supply chains away from China. Jacobs highlighted how this aligns with Westwater Resources' strategic goals and its advancements in the battery graphite business, particularly in Alabama, where the company is focused on producing high-quality battery graphite products. In addition to discussing the Department of Energy's guidance, Jacobs provided insights into the results of an Initial Assessment for the Coosa Graphite Deposit in Alabama. Remarkably, these positive figures were derived from drilling data covering less than 10% of the Coosa Deposit acreage, and they did not account for any potential benefits from previously discovered vanadium resources.

Volt Resources CEO talks 2023 Achievements and Graphite Market Insights for Explosive Growth in 2024

Volt Resources Ltd

Volt Resources CEO Prashant Chintawar joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news discussed the company's 2023 achievements and challenges in a recent interview. Notable highlights include progress in securing partnerships, manufacturing agreements, and customer relationships for their downstream business. The natural graphite anode plant in the US has a pipeline of over $100 million for non-diluted funding. Despite successful mining campaigns in Tanzania, financing for the Bunyu project remains a priority. Chintawar told Proactive the Zavalievsky graphite business in Ukraine resumed operations successfully, producing over 1500 pounds of graphite material. Chintawar emphasized the growth potential in transitioning from selling flake graphite to graphite anode powder, focusing on the electric vehicle market. The graphite market is experiencing a "perfect storm" with China halting graphite exports and the US seeking domestic sources. Volt, with its integrated operating mine, is well-positioned to benefit.

Unleash Financial Freedom This Holiday Season: Dash Your Way to Extra Savings for Holiday Shopping and Travel

YourUpdateTV

The holiday season is upon us, and so is the desire for a little extra cheer in our pockets. Recently, Taylor Bennett, Global Head of Public Affairs for DoorDash and Denis Boismier, a Dasher in Gibraltar, Michigan conducted a satellite media tour to talk about the unique earning opportunities and flexibility that come with being a dasher with Doordash. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/V8w4faZVNQk Dashing with Doordash gives people the ability to go out and earn money in a way that fits their schedule. ● 13M people have dashed in past decade and earned a total of $35B ● 72% spend less than 4 hours per week and 90% of Dashers spend less than 10 hours a week on delivery ● 78% of Dashers report being able to create their own schedule as the main reason they choose to dash, 64% cite supplemental income whenever they need Whether it’s saving up for the holidays, trying to pay off student loans or just wanting some additional financial security, dashing gives people the ability to go out and earn money in a way that fits their schedule – they can dash as often or as little as they’d like. With more than 22 new features this year aimed at making the dashing experience even better, there’s never been a better time to dash. With the introduction of Earn by Time, Post-Checkout Tipping, Dash Along the Way, and a new integration with GasBuddy, Dashers have more flexibility than ever when it comes to how they earn and more opportunities than ever to maximize their earnings potential. Safety is a top priority for DoorDash – that’s why the app has launched more than fifteen new features in the last year alone, including SafeDash Location Sharing, Apple CarPlay and SafeChat+. Here are some of the new features available to Dashers: Flexibility and Choice In June, Doordash made their biggest ever update to the way Dashers earn on DoorDash, providing unprecedented flexibility and choice by giving Dashers two ways to earn: Earn by Time, and Earn Per Offer: ● Earn by Time is an all new, industry-leading earnings mode that gives Dashers the choice to earn a guaranteed hourly minimum rate for time spent on a delivery – from the moment they hit accept until the order is dropped off – plus tips. ● Earn Per Offer is the same earning mode that Dashers have come to know and love. When a Dasher sees an offer in the Dasher app, it shows them a guaranteed minimum payout for that offer – they’ll always earn at least that amount, and never less Earnings Potential ● Post Checkout Tipping: Customers have a variety of preferences when it comes to tipping, so earlier this year Doordash added the ability for customers to tip at any point after checkout for up to 30 days after delivery – directly in the Dasher app. ● Dash Along the Way: Regardless of how they choose to earn, Dashers value efficiency and want to maximize their earnings. Dash Along the Way lets Dashers select their preferred starting zone and receive offers that will take them directly there, allowing them to earn on the way and reduce downtime. ● GasBuddy Integration: A new integration with GasBuddy allows Dashers to find the most affordable gas in their area and navigate to it – directly in the Dasher app. Platform Accessibility ● In-app Chat translation: To improve and streamline communication between Spanish-speaking Dashers and English-speaking customers, messages will now be automatically translated. 54 major languages will be supported. ● Spanish Language Chatbot: Doordash’s in-app Dasher support chatbot is an important resource for Dashers looking for real-time support and guidance while dashing. The chatbot is now available in Spanish, and if a Dasher needs support beyond the chatbot, they’ll automatically be transferred to a Spanish-speaking agent. ● Dasher App Language Setting: Many Spanish-speakers set their device’s language to English to help them practice, but want their core apps in their native language to avoid mistakes. Doordash introduced a new feature that allows Dashers to set the Dasher app language to Spanish – even if their device’s language setting is English. Making Dashing Even Safer ● SafeDash Check-In: If Doordash detects that a dash is taking longer than expected, they’ll automatically check in to see if the Dashers is okay. If they take a long time to respond or feel unsafe, an ADT safety agent will call them and escalate to 911 if necessary. ● Real-Time Safety Alerts: In the event of an emergency – like a natural disaster – Doordash can quickly alert Dashers, customers and merchants about the incident and suspend operations in the area. ● SafeDash Location Sharing: Dashers can share their location with up to 5 trusted contacts directly in the Dasher app. Those trusted contacts can see if the Dasher is on a delivery or if emergency assistance has been requested. ● Apple CarPlay Integration: With Apple CarPlay, drivers can sync their iPhone’s interface with their car’s built-in entertainment and information systems, helping drivers use key apps while reducing phone interactions.

The article is titled, “ SaverOne – A Publicly Traded Tech Startup with Highly Positively Skewed Risk-Reward Ratio.” Key Highlights include: Highly skewed risk-reward ratio: The company's market cap is around $5 million, so the risk-reward is highly skewed: it is the full share price to the downside or many multiples of that to the upside, should they ultimately succeed. Company product has been gaining traction: the company has revenues- up 4X year-over-year at $400k in H1 2023, albeit not yet profitable, with 3,000 customer installations as of August 2023 – up 70% in 5 months. Until the end of 2022, the product was only being sold in Israel. In 2023, SaverOne started selling throughout the world, and has started gaining solid traction in Europe and has begun trials in the US. A solution to significant global problem: has over 20 patents for its solution to prevent a driver- and only the driver- from being distracted by their cellphone while driving. Just in the US, crashes where the driver was identified as being distracted resulted in over 10,000 fatalities, 1.3 million injuries, costing $100 billion in economic losses, and were 29% of all crash costs in the US in 2019.
