“did they smash AEM extra hard for those good earnings today?”
Looks like more was expected. They produced more gold in the same time period in 2025 and at a lower AISC. It was a nasty smash!

‘They’d make Europe look like a picnic.’
A near gridlock in Washington, with both Houses in Dem control as u say would be a nightmare for spending, Rates wud explode …so yes softer rates here say that Mkt is not worried and I also reckon rates have been panicked higher, due to the debt panic started in France and run into the US……which I also think was triggered by the Globalist cabal……
I see the vile Lagarde has quit the ECB early and rumours suggest she is looking to take over the WEF …..which might suggest even she sees real problems soon in Euroland and therefore real work ahead !!!!!
If Bonds are saying good things for the GoP in the Mid terms
The SM is also saying that, seeing as most of the SM are close to all time Hi’s……if the Dems were really in front , then I reckon the SM would be well off.

Interesting. I didn’t know that falling rates were a good sign for Republicans. As much as they don’t deserve to win, it’s the lesser of two pathetic evils and better for the country if they do.
Another Dem administration and both houses of congress would destroy the country. They’d make Europe look like a picnic.

10’s at crucial levels….small H&S Top that targets 4.5% if we take out this area….which also says Bonds are betting on a GoP sweep !!!!!!
for eeos – since you hate commies so much
We have some of the best here inside our borders and in high government positions. This one is going to protect another commie by the name of Ilhan Omar.
Nasdaq is cracking in the AH
Humpty – dumpty could be in for quite a fall. Don’t know if that’s good for us though.
Doubling its losses from the regular session.
AMZN earnings missed by a country mile. You know the economy is getting bad when Amazon misses.
maddog – looks like the 10 yr finished down almost 9 bips
around the 4.94% level. Did they reverse back down, or were they down even further early in the day? I haven’t been watching, don’t want to see the carnage in my accounts.
Those falling rates should be pushing the dollar lower at a minimum, but as you say, it might be the Davos crowd keeping the dollar strong to make our exports more expensive and hurt our economy. PM’s are going to struggle if the dollar stays strong IMHO.
Could be an interesting weekend, a little too quiet the last week or so.
Watching Oct. 31st and 11/11 as potential event days.
Ipso – did they smash AEM extra hard for those good earnings today? 🙂

Tks interesting….there sure is a war going on……not sure you can blame it on the Brits, although they are part of it. The Brits today on their own, could not scrape the skin off custard .
I see the war as between the Globalist/Davos crew and the Trump type US school and Russia. Your Dems aligned with the Davos crew along with the EU , Canada and UK…..It is v Likely the Fed is also majority aligned with Davos,…..but I doubt it is trading the mkts , as Bessant would be fully aware and go ape if they were……It’ll be an European operation.
Maddog
I still firmly believe that not only are we in the throes of a political war, but we’re also in a major economic war…..
Ive been reading Susan Kokinda’s take on all of this. A small tidbit from this link:
The Fed vs. America: How Powell’s ‘British System’ Is Sabotaging Trump’s Economy [WATCH]
For once in our lives, the Fed is not the guilty party in sitting on PM’s
because when you look at the other mkts, the ramming moves are all against what the Fed/Treasury want.
Take 10 yrs notes……they just broke down, ie rates lower and took out a clear up trend, yet have just been rammed back up.
Oil same no way does Bessant want oil up

Sad news…..he knew the mkts well and I suspect was that rare article, that took money out trading..His thoughts will be missed.

To be expected
The morning after plan. If the desired result is not achieved on the day of the announcement, proceed to trash the sector the following morning.
Besides, there is just no way in Hades pm’s were going to part ways with the SM, which has been weak all night.
Dollar up a smidge, but rates down 3 bips, and oil is hovering around $100, down a buck and change.
Last couple days of the month, gonna be a rough flight. Then we’ll see about November.

Looks like we got dragged up with the SM. The usual would be for them to get us tomorrow.
A win is a win, no matter how small.
