Millions of Acres of Gold-Rich Land. Open to Any American.
Featured: Should Microsoft Buy HubSpot?
Dear Friend,
There’s a map the federal government doesn’t advertise.
The areas outlined in red may look small at first glance.
In reality, they cover millions of acres across some of the most mineral-rich parts of the United States.
Nevada. Montana. Arizona. Colorado.
Gold country.
Under a 154-year-old federal law, much of that land is still open to private mineral claims.
Meaning if you know where to look, follow the rules, and file the right paperwork… the gold beneath that dirt is legally yours.
Every ounce. No split with the government.
But I’m not suggesting you load up a truck and drive into the desert.
Because one company has already done the hard work.
It controls a sprawling network of mines, mills, and processing facilities across this exact territory.
And it’s pulling billions of dollars in gold out of the ground every year.
Dylan Jovine identified this company – and a second, smaller one sitting on one of the largest undeveloped deposits in North America.

Should Microsoft Buy HubSpot?
Here’s a scenario worth sitting with. HubSpot is currently trading at roughly a $10 billion market cap – down nearly 67% in the past year. For Microsoft, that’s not an acquisition. That’s a rounding error on the Azure quarterly report.
So the question isn’t really whether Microsoft can buy HubSpot. It’s whether they should.
The strategic case is cleaner than it looks at first glance. Dynamics 365 already combines CRM and ERP capabilities in a single environment, with native integration across the broader Microsoft suite keeping teams within tools they already use. The problem is the layer below enterprise. Dynamics is widely considered more complex to implement and customize than HubSpot – and HubSpot regularly wins competitive evaluations among mid-market companies. That’s the gap. Microsoft dominates the boardroom and loses the marketing team down the hall.
25-Cent Gold Explorer Set to Drill Top Canadian Mineral Belt
A major fully funded drill campaign is set to launch on a district-scale gold discovery in one of the safest and most mining-friendly mineral districts on Earth.
This ultra low-priced explorer — currently trading below US$0.25 per share — already controls a multi-million-ounce gold inventory in a top Canadian gold belt as it sets its sights on the next phase of growth via the drill bit.
Backed by a newly strengthened treasury, multiple high-priority expansion targets, and exposure to one of the strongest gold markets in history, this soon-to-be-known small-cap is entering its most important phase yet.
HubSpot closed 2025 with 288,706 customers and $3.1 billion in revenue – the largest customer and revenue base in the company’s public-market history. Salesforce remains the CRM market-share leader, but HubSpot is the fastest-growing major CRM by customer count and the dominant choice in SMB and mid-market segments. That’s exactly the territory Microsoft’s Dynamics 365 has struggled to crack.
Slight tangent, but it matters: Google reportedly explored a HubSpot acquisition back in 2024. Buying HubSpot would make Google a direct competitor in the CRM sector that Microsoft currently caters to. Microsoft let that moment pass. At today’s valuation, a second look costs them far less.
The synergy math is straightforward. Plug HubSpot’s 288,000-plus customers and Breeze AI suite – which enables real-time CRM data analysis and automated lead qualification – directly into Azure AI and Dynamics 365, and Microsoft suddenly has a credible answer for every business tier, not just the Fortune 500. The mid-market stops being a leaky bucket.
The Salesforce angle is where it gets sharper. While Salesforce grows at roughly 8 to 11% annually, HubSpot has sustained revenue growth of approximately 20 to 25% year over year. Microsoft absorbing that growth engine doesn’t just strengthen their position – it directly compresses Salesforce’s runway below the enterprise level, where Salesforce is already facing pricing pressure.

The counterargument isn’t about price or fit. It’s about integration risk. HubSpot’s product works because it’s simple. Microsoft’s track record with acquired SaaS products is uneven. The fear isn’t that this deal fails financially. It’s that the product gets absorbed into the Microsoft complexity machine and loses the thing that made it win in the first place.
Whether Microsoft has the discipline to acquire HubSpot and leave it mostly alone – that’s the real question. The valuation window is open. It won’t stay that way forever.
