I was born on 6 August 1956 in San Francisco, California to Janet and (the late) Richard Hovis.
I grew up in Santa Monica, California where I attended elementary, junior high school, and high school (graduating in 1974), in addition to involvement in sports and recreation (Little League +, the Boy’s Club ++). Further, it was in elementary school – St. Augustine’s By-the -Sea Parish School that I found, and made the choice to truly journey with God.
I attended Arizona State University from 1974 to 1977 – seeking to become an architect, however, I was not accepted, and, as such, I graduated with a Liberal Arts degree.
Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and studied City and Regional Planning at the Master’s level. I successfully completed one (1) year in a two (2) year program – I did not complete the Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning – due to personal reasons.
I returned to Santa Monica where I started (October 1979) my career as graphic designer with Exxon Company, USA. I spent five years with Exxon Company, USA.
While working with Exxon Company, USA I was accepted into architectural school – Sci-Arc in Southern California, however, I did not attend preferring to stay with Exxon..
In 1982 I married Laura Flosi and in April 1983 we had our one and only child – Lauren Alain Hovis – a gift from God.
We moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1984 from Los Angeles, where I went to work as a graphic designer with Kitchell CEM (from 1985 -1987).
From 1987 – 1995 I was an independent contractor, and a registered representative in mortgage finance, financial management, graphic design, and drafting.
Further, I attended the University of Phoenix and successfully obtained a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in 1982.
I was also a member of the Scottsdale Jaycees, where I became very involved in community events and projects.
In 1994, I accepted a cartography position with the Defense Mapping Agency in Reston, Virginia. As such, I relocated from Phoenix to Reston.
In 1998, I was accepted and worked as a Visual Information Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2002, I worked as a Support Officer until my retirement (due to a need for shoulder surgery) in September 2018.
Away from my Federal Government service, I have been involved in various organizations and activities in Northern Virginia.
In November of 2011, I married Rebecca Ouellette in Santa Monica, California. I reside in San Tan Valley, AZ with my two hamster - Jess and Timothy, our fish, our lizard - RJ Lizard., and our cats - Pearl and Grey.
As to hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, attending sporting events, mentoring individuals from financial management to hamsters, building models, photography, travel, multimedia design, managing partner for RJ Hamster, and jazz – smooth jazz to a samba or a bossa nova.
Love and God Bless,
Peter – aka RJ Hamster Jo hi

Please join us, our Zoom Link is below for this Saturday’ssession at 8:00 AM PDT 03/21/2026. I am blessed by the presence of each one of you in my life. We show gratitude to God by “giving thanks in all circumstances …” [1Thess. 5:18a]
We continue our study of Matthew. [Matt. 5, 6, 7] These chapters are the very basics of Jesus’ teachings, as He establishes His authority on earth. He articulated them in a single teaching, spoken in a single lecture if you will. It may draw a chuckle from some, but He then had to spend the next three years explaining what He said. We should reflect on that for a moment.
Today’s study is very basic to each of us. Jesus deals mostly with our attitude toward food, clothing and judging others. However, Jesus’ sermon closes with the consequences of our failure to forgive others. There is much to talk about and much to personally consider. Please join us.
03/21/2026 – [Matt. 6:25-34] – Food and Clothing – Jesus’ teaching in [v. 6:25-34] directly follows – and is logically connected to the revelation about our treasures and our Master in [v. 19-24]. Notice how Jesus uses “Therefore” (NIV) as He transitions from [v. 24 to v. 25]. We must be mindful of our attitude toward earthly possessions, to fully under-stand there can be only one master in the life of Jesus’ disciples [v. 24]. The command to be free from worry, naturally and inevitably follows. When food and clothing are our masters, the resulting slavery is to worry – will there be enough of these necessities? However, when serving our Father in heaven, because Jesus came to earth, there will be an entirely alternative attitude toward food and clothing, that are a part of what it means to be human.
Let us start with a three, part introduction: 1) Jesus is teaching about the necessities of life. Be aware that there is a tendency among humans to redefine luxuries as wants and then escalate them into genuine needs. NOTE: Jesus does not preach a “prosperity gospel.” Jesus tells everyone regardless of faith that the Father knows that we need food and clothing. [v. 6:32b] and that He will provide for those whom He treasures far more than birds and lilies. [v. 6:26-30] Editorially, – we in North America, generally, have more than we need. 2) NOTE: Jesus’ teaching in [v.6:25-34] is not a guarantee that His disciples will never be in a circumstance of extreme physical need. Jesus’ disciples have seen birds starve and lilies wither. In God’s mysterious ways we struggle within a fallen creation. It is here that we experience “natural” disasters, wars and persecutions via those who hate the Lord. We see this reveal-ed often in the 20C., and we should be mindful that seeing is believing. Even in the face of Jesus calling some to be missionaries, they should expect that the incidence of physical deprivations may increase. However, the command to be free of worry emanates from the truth that Jesus’ disciples are the servants of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. Their triune God will see fit to their provisions. 3) Let us find ways to deal with the inclination of humans to worry. Worry plagues Jesus’ disciples and wicks away their time and energy. First, we should simply rebuke worry and then confess it as the sin it is. When we confess our sin (worry), we receive God’s forgiveness and new strength to begin again. That is the biblical way, Jesus has an alternative. [v. 6:25-34] Jesus gently begins with a series of rhetorical questions which invite the disciples to remember they are living their lives under the careof the Father. Do we have such courage? Jesus turns His disciples away from worry and teaches and guides them toward the reign of God and His righteousness which has come into the world – Jesus.
Jesus’ invitation is holistic. To seek the reign of God is to seek the Gospel which comes to us in The Scriptures and the Sacraments. When we seek that Gospel, we experience the sus-taining community of fellow disciples – who are our brothers and sisters. With them we are joined to Christ in Holy Baptism, and with them we gather to hear God’s word and receive the Lord’s Supper. In all those places we find God’s saving righteousness; there God is at work forgiving and making things right. That is what life is for; here is the purpose and goal of the body. We are being drawn to orient our lives and to be free from worry over life’s other needs. The Father will fulfill those needs. [v. 6:33b] Jesus says in His concluding proverb [v. 6:34], each day has enough trouble, so why borrow more by worrying about the next day. As Jesus’ disciples, we have one Master [v. 6:24]. The Master is the heavenly Father of Jesus , the Savior – the word empowers us to walk with Jesus, with authority.
[Matt. 7:1-6] – Judging Others – In the next few verses we will be leaving the Sermon. But before leaving Jesus addresses the disciple with an arrogant spirit, blind to his own faults and failings. May pass judgement on, or even reject, fellow disciples. Jesus is not forbidding all judgements of our brothers and sisters, but warning of being hypocritical. If we are to be “salt and light” we must proclaim God’s Word [v. 5:13-16] . Be aware that Jesus is primarily referring to relationships between fellow Christians with His often use of “brother” [v. 7:3-5]. Jesus sees the person who is blind to his own failings with the symbol of the beam stuck in his own eye. Jesus’ hyperbole is beautiful because of its impossibility. One could say it is grotesque, but it is more grotesque to find fault with a fellow disciple without the humble awareness of one’s own faults. If I do not realize that I have sinned and have too many faults in need of correction I cannot approach a fellow Christian and offer him admonition or call him to repentance. If I hypocritically embark on such a journey, I shall pay the price through the end of time. This is true also if we withhold forgiveness from another believer. Only God, without sin, can judge without any awareness of personal sin. AMEN (pg. 32 – 33)
Why One Energy Expert Is Betting on These 3 Oil Stocks Now
Author: Bridget Bennett. First Published: 3/5/2026.
Key Points
Oil-price volatility tied to Middle East risk is keeping energy stocks in focus, with North America-facing operators viewed as less exposed to overseas disruption.
Marc Lichtenfeld’s picks span the supply chain: a producer (APA), a refiner (Marathon Petroleum), and a midstream “toll collector” (Enterprise Products Partners).
The common thread is cash flow: value in upstream, potential margin upside in refining, and steadier income in midstream.
Energy markets have been anything but calm lately. Oil prices surged and then pulled back as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East reverberated through global markets. That volatility can make investors uneasy, but it also creates opportunities.
In a recent conversation with Marc Lichtenfeld of the Oxford Club, the discussion centered on how investors can navigate this environment and where compelling opportunities may lie in the energy sector. Lichtenfeld highlighted three companies he believes combine solid fundamentals, income potential and exposure to key parts of the energy supply chain.
Geopolitical Tensions Are Driving Oil Price Volatility
Gold didn’t dip from $5,423 to $5,000—it was forced down. After the Iran strikes, something inside the gold market broke.
While retail investors hesitate, the smart money is quietly loading up on a little-known Shadow Miner positioned for what happens next. On March 31st, a 90-year-old law could expose what’s really inside the vaults, and when that happens, this Iran discount disappears overnight.See the ticker before the reset
Recent geopolitical developments have reminded markets how sensitive oil prices are to global events: supply disruptions and concerns about critical transportation routes can push prices higher quickly. Lichtenfeld pointed specifically to tensions involving Iran as a major catalyst for the recent moves.
“Given what’s happening geopolitically… oil prices are going to spike,” Lichtenfeld explained. “I’d be surprised if oil comes all the way back down and settles where it was before the war started.”
One key factor investors are watching is the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping lane for global oil flows. If that route is disrupted, the impact on prices could be significant. “Until we know that the Strait of Hormuz is wide open and traffic can flow through there freely, there’s going to be price pressure on oil,” he added.
Because of that uncertainty, Lichtenfeld is focusing on companies operating primarily in North America rather than those that rely heavily on overseas supply chains.
APA Offers Value in the Upstream Segment
The first stock highlighted was APA Corporation (NASDAQ: APA), an oil and gas producer operating primarily in the Permian Basin and the North Sea. APA represents the upstream portion of the industry—companies that extract oil and gas from the ground.
Lichtenfeld noted the company’s improving financial performance and attractive valuation. “It’s a company that’s been around for a long time, it’s well managed and generating lots of cash flow,” he said. “It trades at just eight times earnings and less than three times cash flow, so I think it’s a bargain.”
APA has also made progress on cost reductions, reaching savings goals earlier than expected. Those efficiency gains could help boost margins and support continued earnings growth. For investors seeking exposure to oil producers without paying premium valuations for larger names, APA may represent an attractive opportunity.
Marathon Petroleum Could Benefit From Refining Margins
The second company discussed was Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC), which represents the downstream side of the industry. Marathon operates the largest refining system in the United States and can process roughly three million barrels of oil per day, giving it scale when refining margins expand.
Periods of oil price volatility can actually help refiners. “When oil prices are volatile or rising, you tend to see margins improve at refineries,” Lichtenfeld explained. That dynamic has already appeared in the company’s results, which show strong earnings growth and continued significant cash flow.
Lichtenfeld also pointed to the stock’s technical trend as supportive of a bullish outlook. “I like to buy things that are rising,” he said. “I’m not a bottom feeder. I don’t try to pick the bottom.”
With the stock already trading in a strong uptrend, Marathon could continue to benefit if oil-market volatility keeps refining margins elevated.
Enterprise Products Partners Provides Income and Stability
The final stock focuses on the midstream segment: pipeline infrastructure. Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (NYSE: EPD)operates a vast network of pipelines that transport oil and natural gas across the United States.
Midstream companies often generate stable cash flow because they operate more like infrastructure providers than commodity producers. “These companies are basically toll collectors,” Lichtenfeld said. “The companies transporting their oil and gas just pay a fee to use the pipeline.”
Because of that structure, Enterprise Products Partners produces consistent income for investors. The partnership currently offers a distribution yield of nearly 6% and has increased its payout for more than 25 consecutive years. Its master limited partnership structure also offers potential tax advantages for income-focused investors.
Diversification Within Energy
A central theme from the conversation was diversification within the energy sector itself. Rather than concentrating on a single segment, Lichtenfeld favors a mix of upstream, midstream and downstream companies.
That approach helps balance risk, since each segment tends to perform differently depending on market conditions. With oil prices sensitive to global events and supply risks, energy stocks could remain in focus throughout the year. For investors looking to position themselves in the sector, these three companies offer exposure to different parts of the energy ecosystem while potentially benefiting from continued volatility.

One overlooked stock could go vertical soon (ad)Imagine for a second that you could call the top or bottom of a trend to the exact candlestick before it even happens and front-run the move to take your shots at payouts, even in today’s chaotic market. One secret I’ll reveal to you does just that—it predicted the COVID crash, the 2022 bear market, and last year’s trade war crash by tracking when Wall Street algos are accumulating or distributing on a particular price before the major reversal happens, giving you a window to jump in and target payouts. This same secret is flashing a huge opportunity on one overlooked stock right now, and from what I see coming, this ticker could go on a parabolic run.

Yesterday, we put out a call for all questions and feedback related to my FutureProof 2026 event on Wednesday.
What came back showed me two things…
First, the folks who attended FutureProof 2026 are taking my prediction very seriously — both the warning and the opportunity that the Market Shock will bring.
Also, I knew I needed to get back to you as quickly as I could, because these questions really get to the heart of why it’s critical to get your next move right in this moment in time…
Read on for my favorite four questions…
Q: Eric, I hear you using the terms “Market Shock” and “Regime Change” when you talk about what’s about to happen to the stock market. Are those the same thing? Or what’s the difference?
A: Good place to start. They’re related, but they’re not the same thing.
The Market Shock is the trigger. On April 24th, a wave of Silicon Valley announcements will begin spilling out of Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Alphabet, Amazon.
All within about a week of each other. They will expose, for the first time publicly, a fatal flaw in the AI buildout that no amount of money can fix quickly.
That’s the moment $10 trillion in capital starts looking for the exit.
The Regime Change is what follows. It’s the full reorganization of stock market winners and losers — capital rotating out of the Magnificent 7 and into the companies supplying what I call AI’s “Golden Rivets.”
Every great technology boom eventually collides with reality. It led to the dot-com crash of 2000. The railroad panic of 1873. The aviation bust of 1929.
The companies that created the hype collapse.
The companies that do the hard work of building the vision thrive.
Q: You’re saying stocks like Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Alphabet, Amazon could lose 50% of their value! Won’t that crash the entire market? If so, have a hard time imagining anything will go up.
A: It’s a fair concern. The Magnificent 7 make up roughly a third of the S&P 500. If they go, the index goes with them. So, trying to “diversify” into an S&P 500 fund would be a lateral move — not a safe one.
After the dot-com crash, the S&P 500 fell more than 40% peak to trough.
But here’s what most people don’t remember about that same period: energy, insurance, base metals stocks all posted triple-digit gains. You could have enjoyed over 500% gains on precious metals in the same time frame.
As an analyst, I was recommending sells on dot-com darlings and buys on stocks almost no one was paying attention to. While the broader market was falling, the stocks I recommended offered gains ranging from 159% to more than 1,000% over the following five years.
That’s the opportunity inside the chaos. The fall of the current leaders and the rise of a new ruling class.
When the Market Shock hits… if you panic, you lose. For disciplined investors who know where to look, it could be one of the most exciting periods of the decade.
Q: Big Tech has unlimited money. So why can’t they write checks to solve their own supply bottlenecks?
A: Money can do many things, but it cannot alter physical reality.
An AI hyperscaler could write a $10 billion check tomorrow to open a new copper mine.
But it would take seven to ten years minimum until the first copper nugget was extracted. Nuclear is more like a 15-year timeline.
The more Big Tech competes for the same limited resources, the more they bid up prices.
This creates a highly asymmetric investment opportunity once you know where all the money is flowing — and will continue to flow for years (and sometime decades) to come.
Q: You’ve put a lot of emphasis on April 24th. What if nothing happens — does your whole “Market Shock” thesis fall apart?
A: April 24th isn’t a magic date where the sky falls. It’s a catalyst window — when Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Alphabet, and Amazon all come forward with announcements that I believe will alter the trajectory of the stock market going forward.
Listen carefully to what they say and you’ll hear the first hints of cracks in the AI story that money and hype cannot patch.
Could my timing be off? Possibly. Based on comments Elon Musk recently let slip, I believe the Market Shock may already be unfolding in earnest. Meaning the time to take action and switch up your holdings is NOW.
If you are holding AI companies when the Market Shock hits, you will end up holding the bag. Simple as that.
FutureProof 2026 is the only event I know of to help get you ahead of this before the crowd figures it out.
Eric Fry Senior Macro-Investment Analyst, InvestorPlace
P.S. I also received a question about how the Iran War stands to affect my April 24th Market Shock thesis. That’s a big question that deserves a thorough answer, so I’ll be addressing that one in an email to you tomorrow… Catch the event replay right here if you haven’t done so yet.

This time, though, it’s not because of some virus—but rather, it’s due to the Iran War. Or more specifically, it’s because of the situation currently unfolding with the Strait of Hormuz: Tankers carrying oil and gas are being blocked by the IRGC.
The U.S. has reportedly destroyed military assets on Iran’s Kharg Island. But Iran still controls the island’s massive oil infrastructure there. President Trump has said he would bomb its oil infrastructure if Iran continues to block the Strait of Hormuz.

(1) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. New King James VersionChange email Bible version
The reality of the New Testament’s teaching is that becoming a true disciple of Jesus Christ obligates a person to a great deal of sacrifice—even to the point of becoming what the apostle Paul calls being “a living sacrifice.” The disciple of Christ is clearly the sacrifice. Why do the sanctified ones make these sacrifices since the price they pay for forgiveness is dedicated, obedient devotion to the leadership of Jesus Christ?
This price requires the sacrifice of every function of a Christian’s body, mind, and spirit to the way of God. It can be very costly. It may cost the Christian his employment because of work requirements on the Sabbath. He may lose his family attachments because the family may not accept his beliefs. He may lose his general acceptance within a community for the same reason.
We commit to Christ for two primary reasons. The first is personal and somewhat self-centered: We want to be delivered from the burden of the death penalty, and we desire the awesome rewards God promises like everlasting life and, sharing eternity with our Creator and Savior. The second is generally slower to grow within us but proves far more critical in the end: We love God and desire the completion of His purpose in us. Through baptism, we want the means to express that love for God and for others as He continues with His creative purposes, preparing us for active participation in His Family in the Kingdom of God.
We should never let the encouraging Romans 5:1-5 slip from our minds:
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peacewith God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts, by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
These verses, naming gifts God gives us upon our agreeing to the New Covenant, remain as a brief but constant reminder of how the New Covenant enables us. They inspire and empower our faith in ways no prior covenant, even with God, has. But the New Covenant does not erase God’s laws, just the penalty we have incurred by breaking them. Even the sacrificial laws involving animals, though they no longer have to be physically made, remain part of the Word of God because we can learn so much from them. They deepen and broaden our understanding of the sacrifices we must make under the New Covenant to show love to both God and men.
