I take your point although we should watch out for “mission creep” like what happened in V_____m.

A decent day for the good guys today!

“advisors”

Sounds familiar …

Captain – yes. Day turned out “better than expected” and most shares caught a little bid. I’m surprised.

Ipso – I’m normally not in favor of sending troops anywhere, but in the case of Nigeria, they have been slaughtering Christians by the thousands. We are still a Christian nation here, until the Democrats get back in and replace us with Muslims. If 200 troops will get them to stop, that’s worth it to me.

up until a few months ago, that would have been spectacular.  how quickly we become jaded.

we live in interesting times.

they’re just “advisors,” right?

🙁

BREAKING REPORT: US to send 200 troops to Nigeria

https://therightscoop.com/breaking-report-us-to-send-200-troops-to-nigeria/

They attack the shares every day until 1:30 CST at a minimum to affect the futures closes in Chicago.

You can see it if you are watching.

They use the broads to affect liquidity when they want to hold back commodities and their shares.

This is why once they have engineered weak closes in the commodities … they come back in on the close to boost

‘sanctioned shares’ … shares that help their cause to run the world. (tech, financial, etc.)

Commodities are the bankers’ enemy because higher prices take liquidity away from broad measures of stocks and consumers to pay interest to the bankers … which is why the key ratios that drive the larger trends are stocks to commodities ratios.

This is why they are fighting tooth and nail right now to keep those ratios contained at the lows.

The best example is the Silver Miners/Silver Ratio … is still very close to long-term lows … because they use silver to contain gold (or it would be multiple five figures by now), and again, general price levels.

They think they can lie their way to prosperity … for all? … no … just for themselves.

Spit

captain – right, not as bad as it would’ve been in the past. They’re attacking the shares mostly, but I suppose that’s because the SM isn’t soaring. I hope what we’re seeing is their best effort to normalize this market before it blows up in March. Assuming something actual happens in March that they can’t paper over.

maddog – we’ll see if they chip away at the metals or we get one of their infamous dumps over a 3-minute period. They have the excuse of a higher dollar and rates.

The joke of the jobs report is the administration will brag about how great it is for the next month or so.

I’m with this guy. Wood chippers.

And then there’s this fraud. Does she really think that these people are so important to the country that we can’t fill their shoes and move on?

you smelt this one well…..they look quite serious today……lets see how they get on.

Well put … this is just like a left-wing commie report.

Silver is getting attacked (much harder than gold because they still need cheap silver) … and because they can … and they want to drive the Gold/Silver Ratio back to 100 to show that … at least in America … digits rule. (This goes along with their plans for the Dollar, etc)

Of course … in the old days … silver would be down $3 right now … not up $3.

Metals Daily Exchange Volume & Open Interest – CME Group

Unfortunately for them … and in spite of extremely high margin rates at CME … this won’t last … because everybody has caught on to the “fractional game” and prices are increasingly being driven by physical offtake (buying).

CME silver open interest is in the buy zone … plumbing 2-year lows (same for gold) … where other such raids have only been attempted at much higher levels.

This of course does not mean they will not have some success in coming months … as with their raid earlier this month … where because of this raid … some traders/investors? … are riled up … and thinking the move in PMs is suspect … if not over … which of course is far from the truth.

So investors should embrace any such volatility in coming days … given the current monetary system … including any new digitization twists … as you can see in the post below (along with all the others) … higher PM prices are not a matter of speculation … but a consequence of all the shenanigans … making participation a requisite for all those who want to survive what is coming.

More on this later.

We got us a Joe Biden payrolls number. Jobs beat estimates by 100K!

Dollar turned north quickly, pm’s hit again but still up somehow. PM shares looked good for the first couple minutes and then they hit the sell button just like they do every single day at almost every single open.

Rates jumped too, getting back the lost ground of the last couple days. Oil is up 2%. Hmm…

As I’ve typed things have gotten considerably worse, gold appears to be headed for negative territory. Shares giving up the goose.

This market has begun to look more and more normal to me since the crash. That’s not a good thing.

Hopefully I’m wrong as usual.

H/T TAVI COSTA FOR CHART

Are we headed back to a time when gold will back the U.S. Treasury market like it did before President Nixon severed the tie between gold and the dollar on August 15, 1971? That 100% seems to be the world we are moving into.

The world is demanding more value backing the U.S. currency versus it just being a fiat instrument; and of course, one used to control the actions, behaviors, and directions of other countries. Central banks are loading up on gold as if it were pre-1971, before the Nixon Shock. It all seems to be coming full circle.

Well, if that’s the case, how much coverage of foreign-owned Treasuries does the U.S. need to have in gold? What did they have pre-Nixon Shock? Has the rise in gold since March of 2024 satisfied this, or is there more needed?

The U.S. has a stable supply of gold (reported at 8,133 metric tons), so therefore price must do all the work. To avoid a total and disorderly collapse of the Treasury market, it is in the U.S.’s best interest that gold is allowed to rise; and rise sharply, to meet the price point where their gold holdings cover foreign-held Treasuries like it’s pre-August 15, 1971.

The answer is stark: gold currently covers only 14% of the $9.4 trillion in foreign-held U.S. Treasuries. Pre-Nixon, that coverage was 70-100% or more. To restore that level of confidence today, gold must rise to between $25,044/oz (for 70% coverage) and $35,777/oz (for 100% coverage). This is not speculation. This is the math of monetary survival that the U.S. faces right now and I will detail below.

Here is what you need to know;

• You need to know the current U.S. gold reserves are 8,133 metric tons (261.5 million troy ounces), and valued at $1.32 trillion at current prices (~$5,050/oz).
• You need to know foreign-held U.S. Treasuries equal $9.4 trillion as of February 2026, up from just $30-50 billion in 1970.
• You need to know current gold coverage of foreign Treasuries is about 14%, down from 70-100%+ pre-1971 under the Bretton Woods system.
• You need to know that to restore the 70% coverage (pre-Nixon standard), gold must rise to $25,044/oz (+396% from today).
• You need to know that to restore 100% coverage (full backing), gold must rise to $35,777/oz (+608% from today).
• You need to know that central banks bought 863 tons of gold in 2025, echoing pre-1971 accumulation patterns. Gold now represents 25% of global reserves, up from 10% in 2000 (but still far below the 70% in 1970).
• And you need to know with U.S. gold supply fixed, price is the only variable that can adjust to restore confidence in the dollar and prevent a disorderly Treasury market collapse.

What we are witnessing is the reverse Nixon shock. Gold Coverage of Foreign-held U.S. Treasuries sits at only 14% today vs. 70-100% pre-Nixon. Price must rise to $25,044-$35,777 to get to the pre-Nixon zone in order to restore confidence. Central banks clearly understand this and are leading the charge by front-running this monetary reset!

Let’s Dig Into The Following:

1. The post World War II Bretton Woods monetary system was a world backed by gold. Under the Bretton Woods system, established in 1944 and lasting until President Nixon’s shock in 1971, the U.S. dollar was directly convertible to gold at $35 per ounce. Foreign central banks could exchange their dollar reserves for physical gold from the U.S. Treasury. This created a powerful discipline on the system. Why the U.S. could not print unlimited dollars without risking a run on its gold reserves and therefore, gold, in effect, backed the dollar and by extension, the global monetary system!
2. Then came August 15, 1971. Facing a run on U.S. gold reserves as foreign central banks (particularly France) demanded conversion, Nixon unilaterally closed the gold window (supposed to be temporarily). Why the dollar became a pure fiat currency at that time, backed by nothing more than the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and the printing press was unleashed!
3. Fast forward to today. The U.S. still holds the same 8,133 metric tons of gold it has held for decades (or at least, that is what is officially reported). At the current market price of approximately $5,050 per ounce, that gold is worth $1.32 trillion. Impressive, until you compare it to the mountain of debt the U.S. has accumulated. Why the current U.S. gold reserves cover only 14% of its foreign-owned debt obligation and that is far below pre-Nixon shock levels!
4. Here is the critical insight: the U.S. is not going to mine or buy significantly more gold in the near term. The 8,133 metric tons (261.5 million troy ounces) is effectively and relatively fixed. Therefore, to restore confidence and avoid a disorderly collapse of the Treasury market, price is the only variable that can adjust. Why to restore a 70-100% coverage ratio (a reasonable pre-Nixon standard), the market value of U.S. gold must rise much further to equal $25K-$35K!
5. And the most telling sign that we are headed back to a pre-1971 world is the behavior of central banks. They are buying gold at a pace not seen since before the Nixon Shock. In 2025 alone, central banks added 863 tons of gold to their reserves. This is not a one-year anomaly; it is part of a multi-year trend of aggressive accumulation. Why the global powers of money are positioning themselves for a world where gold once again plays the dominant central role in anchoring the monetary system!

Conservative Swiss MP Urges ‘End To Immigration From Stone Age Cultures’ As Stats Expose Prevalence Of Domestic Violence

Dollar racing back, metals whacked again. Oddly enough the shares are still doing OK for now.

as the dollar rallies back. First of what will be several smashes throughout the day no doubt.

Hard to see them completely reverse things but they did take half the gains from gold already.

Wouldn’t it be weird if they did this to the DOW? DOW goes up 600 points then they come in and cut it in half, and continue to chip away and whack at it all day. What if they did that daily and every attack was intended to sell it down? Do you think anyone would play?

That is exactly what we see day after day and have for years.

Getting back yesterday’s losses in the metals as the dollar slips below the 200. 10 yr down to 4.13%

PM Shares looking strong in the pre-market. Looks like silver hit $85.06 during the overnight session, just below it now at $83.85, but still sporting a $3 gain or 3.6%. Gold up $30 or so, as the other metals shine.

Jobs report in a few hours. Hard to see them reversing this, but stranger things have happened.

Shanghai pm fix pushing up toward $90 @ $88.64. Looking good Billy Ray.

BTW – Bitcoin getting hit for $2K back to $66K. Looks like that wild bounce the other day was just a dead cat.

Lol The gift that keeps on giving.

Since a cow produces about 2000 gallons a year and average price per gallon 4 35 times 2000  is 8,700 a year times about 2 1/2 yrs if you let it milk it’s calf.  minus expenses varies.

Silver is very undervalued at $81 in historical terms.

Price to cash value also over valuated..anything over 20.

Based on recent data, the Price/Cash Flow (TTM) ratio for Discovery Silver Corp. (DSVSF) is approximately 25.16. Other valuations suggest a price-to-operating-cash-flow ratio of 32.16. The company’s valuation metrics are currently trading in a context where analysts are comparing it to its projected future free cash flows, which are expected to reach roughly C$0.71 per shar

I don’t think there is a rational answer that’s good anyways less there’s something somebody knows. With the squeeze going on people may be reluctant to take profits and still be buying over bought stocks on pure speculation. If I bought that stock and seen that number talking about being over priced in I would be taking profits off the table before the spectators figured it out. I’d rather be wrong in the green than in the red and trying to catch a falling knife esp on a OTC. If I didn’t I’d put a trailing stop loss if available.

And if it cost put a all or nothing stop..
