#SILJ erased the whole move and just turned red.

These fucking algos.

There is very little genuine priceaction in mining stocks.

It’s just liquidity providers algos pressing price up or down depending on the metals movements.

Organic investing is almost dead. Undervalued stocks that drop market moving news gets almost zero impact as liquidity providers absorb everything.

I shouldn’t complain actually as I made a fortune thanks to these algos by just playing the windows of where they press price upwards.

But times like this, it’s frustrating to see massive volume and zero movement because algos just drive it down meanwhile liquidity providers keeps filling the asks.

Anyways. We hate them now, we love them later.

But one thing is sure, #IRAN needs to end for metals to move.

If Trump restarts the war, prepare to be mentally depressed as #Silver $30-$45 is then on the table for real.

IMO, we are back at “all eyes on Iran”

Not sure who it is but whoever, they’re doing a masterful job. Haven’t seen it this bad in quite a while. Today was ridiculous. Sickening.

I’d rather listen to big bird and elmo for financial advice. Pure trash!

Copper needs $ 332bn of new mines.

Each one takes about 17 years to build.

Bloomberg new outlook sees a deficit starting in 2028 and widening to 20 million tonnes by 2050.

That’s about 44% of demand.

9 of the 10 transition metals it tracks now look covered. Copper is the odd one out.

Demand rises 61% to almost 46 million tonnes by 2050. Electric transport alone needs 11.4 million.

You can print money…. You can’t print a mine.

But it looks like we’re getting some of that “normal market action” now.

I think I’d rather just open down and stay down than have hope destroyed.

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

It takes a special kind of fool to think the federal government will pay you back in gold after 50 years…..

Broker comment on Gold:

‘Price Discovery Moving East: Valcambi, one of the world’s largest gold refiners, plans to establish its first refining operation outside Switzerland in Hong Kong, according to Bloomberg .. The announcement supports Hong Kong’s broader ambition to strengthen its position in the global gold market, with authorities also pursuing initiatives including a gold clearing system, a new bullion benchmark and yuan-denominated gold futures. Hong Kong now has over 30,000 tonnes of gold storage (LBMA’s total incl. ETFs is just 9kt with a rolling float of just 1.2kt), with 1Q27 planned as the official international launch of Hong Kong’s system (currently in pilot mode)’

EXCLUSIVE: The UK’s Royal Air Force will fly defensive missions to protect Saudi Arabia from escalating Houthi attacks, according to British officials familiar with the matter

RAF Typhoon fighter jets will help defend Saudi cities and infrastructure against aerial attacks from the Iran-backed militant group, the people said. Andy Burnham has signed off on the decision

Britain will also provide an Atlas A400M transport aircraft with heavy lift capability to move kit around Saudi, as well as military advisers

The decision marks an extension of UK support for Saudi in the wake of Houthi attacks which have killed more than a dozen people in Riyadh. There have been multiple attacks on the kingdom in recent days

Interesting Gold bond article. Makes a lot of sense.

Not going to watch this daily boot on our necks…..I’m out….

The Engineering of a Global Food Collapse

I watched the grocery store footage from southern Italy this week with a sick feeling in my gut. The shelves were stripped bare — not because of a nationwide shortage, but because truckers are protesting sky-high diesel prices and key distribution routes are blocked. In a country that’s one of Europe’s agricultural giants, stores are running out of basic foodstuffs. A localized trucker strike should not empty the bread aisle in a modern economy. But it did.

This looks like a temporary inconvenience in a distant country. That’s what the establishment media will tell you. But in my view, this is exactly how the opening act of a global food collapse begins — not with a bang, but with a trucker protest, a blocked highway, a few empty shelves. By the time the shelves stay empty, it will be too late to prepare. The warning shots are being fired right now, and almost nobody is listening.

Consider what happens when truckers cannot afford to drive. Diesel is not a minor input cost for food distribution; it is the lifeblood. When diesel goes above a certain price point, trucking companies lose money on every haul. They park their rigs. And when the rigs park, the food stops moving. The Italian trucker strike is not an isolated incident — it’s the first domino.

It was good when we knew who our enemies were. Paris 1968, the rioters were genuine students, letting off steam for some reason in the good old-fashioned French way, in association with a general strike which again, in the good old-fashioned French way nobody took much notice of.

Even with Charlie Hebdo, we knew who the perpetrators were. European governments totally ignored the warning and encouraged more and more muslim migration, in spite of the warning of the UAE Foreign Minister.

All the Neville Roy’s of this world had to do was to tap into such unrest with dozens of infiltrated agents, making it such a many headed hydra that even if it didn’t spout two heads for every one cut off it is already probably impossible to contain. The troubles may die down, but the authorities, even Le Pen, will prove unable to root them out without enabling them to burst forth with renewed vigour.
