Sand Up Your Crack: The Last Frac Sand Company Standing: QAV America #68

About
This week we dig into Smart Sand (SND), the last frac sand company standing on the US exchanges, and try to figure out why a business that sells 500-million-year-old Wisconsin quartz to oil drillers has tripled its share price in under a year. Tony also shares some sharp thinking on why double market is basically the speed of light for investment returns, and we open with the usual chaos: Iran, oil prices, Venezuela, AI agents breaking out of sandboxes to hack each other, and Bill Gates ringing alarm bells that nobody wants to hear.
