Perpetual swap futures, a type of futures contract that does not expire, tied to oil jumped about 5% to $70.6 per barrel on crypto-exchange Hyperliquid, while those for gold and silver rose roughly 1.3% and 2% to $5,323 and $94.9 per troy ounce, respectively. The moves may offer some indication of how those markets could respond once mainstream trading resumes on Monday.

But like Ferrett suggested, “Take along a pair of oars, stupid”! LOL!!! SNG
I’m sure you’ve seen people fishing in a river from on top of a high bridge. I wonder what they intend doing IF they catch something??? Stupid is as stupid does!
THIMK AHEAD! (yeah, it was intentional ;o)) or use the six “p’s”: Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance. SNG advice I try to always use! ;o)

Karma
If he can cast far enough he can hook on to something and pull himself to shore. If he can’t, if theres wind he can stand up open his coat and make like a sail. If he’s strong enough he can break off one of those seats and use it for a oar. If none of that works he’ll have to unload his coat and shoes and keep his pants for a emergency life jacket if currents strong or water too cold any hypothermia and swim for it. But if he’s a elitist he probably useless wouldn’t think or be able to do any of that so just label Karma.

Unless he has an outboard on the stern…but he still should have oars in the boat for a backup!

Nine Protesters Killed in Clash at U.S. Consulate in Karachi
The violence broke out Sunday in Karachi after U.S. and Israeli strikes on February 28 killed Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, prompting Iranian retaliation that killed three American troops. Pro-Iran demonstrators, many from Pakistan’s large Shia community, gathered outside the consulate on Mai Kolachi Road, scaled barriers, and smashed at doors before security responded with gunfire—all casualties from gunshots, per officials. Protests spread to Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar, with Pakistani leaders urging peace amid U.S. alerts and canceled services; unverified social media claims pushed higher death tolls but mainstream reports confirmed nine dead.

Looks like they are just using up all their ammo so as not to leave anything behind. No hypersonics. Attacking undefended civilian targets in the ME as well as Israel. All bluster. Quite pathetic really.

I didn’t know that about hotels and stuff. I just don’t watch the news anymore. Sounds like the war is going as planned for now. Hopefully things work out.
