Pinnacle members will be notified if we select them as our next equity target. Although the Canadian markets are our focus at Pinnacle Digest they are directly related to the American markets, which is why we research both equally. Vulcan Minerals Inc. (TSX-V:VUL) experienced an even day in the market Thursday combined with over 10,000 shares traded. On April 3rd they announced that they have signed a letter agreement to option its Kingurutik River nickel/copper prospect in northern Labrador to Nortec Ventures Corp. This news has justified a review by our team at Pinnacle Digest as we believe it will have a direct influence over their short and long term direction. Our team is analyzing the motivation behind this decision and will be reviewing it in detail. It was reported that Nortec will have the right to earn a 51% working interest by incurring $1,500,000 of work expenditures and paying the company $200,000 and 3,000,000 common shares over a four year option period.

US stocks rose for a third day this week as commodity producers spurred a rally and Merrill Lynch gave assurance it has enough capital to stave off bankruptcy from credit losses. This came only two days after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke finally acknowledged that the United States may in fact be in a recession. On Monday it was reported that US markets had posted their best start to a second quarter in 70 years. The markets recent fall needs to be attributed to this. The TSX Exchange has been relentless in recent days as it continues to rise. Lower oil prices and an improved Treasury plan continued to help stave off a financial crisis and added to sentiment and expectations the US economy will sustain itself. We believe this trend will be difficult to continue as last week US stocks fell for the forth time in five weeks earnings continue to decline for financial companies. There are no two ways about it; the markets still look very bleak and sentiment remains extremely cautious. The financial industry has helped the S&P 500 record its largest quarterly loss since 2002. The markets had been showing life early last week as many believed much of the wake of the credit crisis had been reported. Commodity prices have been plunging lately as sentiment that they may be overvalued hurt many valuations. Oil fell to just over $100 a barrel in New York Tuesday. Two Tuesday's ago US stocks rallied the most in 5 years following the Fed interest rate cut which brought the lending rate to 2.25%. Gold stayed above $900 an ounce Thursday on sentiment the dollars rally against the euro will soon stall. As sentiment begins to rally around the US markets, the purchase and demand of gold as a hedge against inflation is diminishing. The Dow exploded an absurd 391.47 points Tuesday and continued to move up Thursday rising 17.11 points to close at 12626.03. The markets are operating in tremendously volatile times at the moment. This volatility must be understood and used to the investor's advantage. The Fed has once again cut interest rates. The interest rate has dropped from 6% to 2.25% in just over a year. The TSX Composite rose again Thursday to close at 13551.29. The TSX and TSX-Venture exchanges are our focus at Pinnacle Digest. Resource based companies operating in these exchanges are what our research focuses on. Canadian stocks reported their first weekly gain in almost a month as sentiment central banks in the United States will cut borrowing rates to stave off a recession was prominent last week. Canada's biggest fear is that a lack of credit will slow the global economy and thus reduce the demand of materials. At Pinnacle Digest we believe the global demand for many commodities will overpower any economic turmoil in the United States. The fluctuation occurring within this index is exceptional and keeping everyone on edge. At Pinnacle Digest we feature four companies trading within the mining and oil and gas industries.
