Wanka,
I see we have a birthday for you today. Mr. Market has often given me a gold silver bottom on a few of my birthdays. Maybe it your turn now. 🙂 Happy birthday.

“The ban or termination of the US dollar will not apply to the exchange operations carried out by Russian Central Bank, the Russian government, ministries of foreign affairs and defense, the Foreign Intelligence Service and the Federal Security Service.”
Comment:
You know what this reminds me of?? In 1934 when the US banned private ownership of gold. Exception to the rule, gold was allowed to trade between various countries and their banks.
Evidently, US Dollars for Russian citizens these days are the same as GOLD was for American citizens in 1934. This is a very interesting clue for the “situation”.
ZERO HEDGE
One of the main challenges of a long career in money management is that the distance (in terms of time and cost) between an intelligent conclusion that prices are massively wrong in either direction, and the actual reversal of valuations toward the range of “reasonableness,” can sometimes be too long to bear. One could have easily become stridently bearish on stocks in 1995 (as we did), when in America equity prices passed all-time highs by nearly every measure, selling at 22 times earnings, a level that was previously reached in only September 1929 and March 1972 (both serious peaks). But they did not top out until early 2000 at 40 times earnings. And, in October 2008, those who thought that markets had fallen as far as they possibly could, and backed that belief with massive buying, found themselves weeks or months away from what was an extraordinarily painful and confusing bottom, with horrifying losses mounting by the day.
Today, one could be bullish on the long-term value of gold and be not only sitting on losses but also experiencing incoming ridicule and schadenfreude. In the same vein, based on the extraordinary monetary policy being practiced by the world’s central bankers, one could be completely convinced that medium- and long-term bonds are staggeringly overpriced, with nowhere to go but down in price (up in yield). But watching bonds persist in their long-term uptrend regardless of money printing, and watching gold prices languish with no understanding by investors that throughout history gold has always been considered the only real money in a world of monetary fakery, is concerning to say the least. Maybe history has stopped.
We do not have a solution to the problem of assessing the outer boundaries of the price ranges of a host of financial assets, nor do we have a key to refining the timing of turning points in trends. The only appropriate answers are: “Who knows?” and, “Whenever they feel like turning.”
But we do have thoughts about survival as money managers, based on our own experience as well as observation and data. Every money manager with aspirations of a long career must govern his or her purchases to take into account the uncertainties we have described above. There must be a “Plan B” when purchasing or selling assets, so that capital is kept intact even if trends or turning points do not follow expectations. Being “wrong” may (or may not) be a temporary thing, but money managers who want to stick with long or short positions must determine how they are going to trade, hedge, or increase or decrease their positions if the prices continue to go against them. It is surprising how few money managers ask themselves: “What if I am wrong, or early? What do I do then?”
These are particularly important issues at present, with bonds across the globe still absurdly treated as “safe havens.” They are not safe havens with the 30-year euro swap rate trading at 1.85%, or the Japanese 20-year swap rate at 1.35%.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WANKA
chicken huh? You didn’t happen to vote democrat the other day did you?
THIS IS WHAT HOPE LOOKS LIKE
So let me lay out some simple TRUE PREMISES, and then ask a follow-up question.
A.) Â The constitutional republic referred to as the United States of America no longer exists. Â TRUE.
B.) Â The Rule of Law is no longer in force in the former United States. Â TRUE.
C.) The Constitution of the United States and the system of government it defines is therefore no longer in force. Â TRUE.
D.) The body going by the name “United States Congress” has been rendered meaningless in praxis.  TRUE.
E.) Â National-level representative politics in the former United States is a completely false facade, kabuki theater, designed to entertain and mollify the masses who are of average intelligence, and to launder looted money and enrich the oligarch class. Â TRUE.
F.) Given the reality of the true premises above, any person who holds or seeks to hold national-level public office is, by definition, morally, intellectually and/or psychologically unfit to hold public office (The Barnhardt Axiom). Â TRUE.
Okay, so now my question.  What exactly are you people agog about?  Have we learned NOTHING?  NOTHING AT ALL?  It still hasn’t sunk in?  Do you not remember the 2010 midterms and how that was going to put the brakes on Obama once and for all?  DO YOU REMEMBER THAT?  Yeah. And what did they do?  Flip-all.  Zippo.  Nada.  I don’t give a crap if the “US Congress”, both houses, are UNANIMOUSLY republican.  What the hell does it matter?  No.  Stop.  Stop and think.  Answer the question, because it is not rhetorical.  You tell me.  WHAT DOES IT MATTER?
Oh boy!  I’m so excited!  Now there are a few more psychopathic imbeciles and whores who wave the flag with the elephant on it who will do exactly nothing to stop anything that the Washington DC regime does.  Run up debt, debase the currency and loot the Treasury to the tune of a TRILLION dollars per year?  NOTHING.  Dissolve the Mexican border?  NOTHING.  Run guns to and reform the islamic Caliphate?  NOTHING.  Sic the IRS on enemies?  NOTHING.  Actively attempt to bring viruses and plagues into the country?  NOTHING.  Aggresively force and promote a culture of sodomy and child slaughter?  NOTHING.  But the godless sellouts and larcenous hacks will all now, instead of capitulating to everything, suddenly stand tall and put their proverbial foot down! Really?  And also the sun will rise in the west tomorrow morning.  Give me a break.
You can’t, you just CAN’T be that obtuse.  The former United States is being run by a shadow regime, who has full power and control with ZERO check or balance.  Have you not been paying attention to ANYTHING that has happened for the past six years?  The former U.S. is being run by executive fiat, which is carried out by an ideologically purged and compliant bureaucracy, judiciary, military, financial industry and with a fully compliant media/propaganda arm.  The executive is not Obama the man, who is less than nothing but a puppet front, but a Supreme Soviet of oligarchs.  And I mean that literally.  A Supreme Soviet of oligarchs.  The Legislative branch is a troupe of very, very highly paid shills and cretins who, I’m sure, will perform their little hearts out for you.  Hands will be wrung.  Frowny faces will be made.  Billions of breathless, personalized emails begging for contributions to their money laundering fronts, aka PACs, will be sent.  Balance sheets will inflate by eight figures for no apparent reason.
I’m sorry, but I cannot, in good conscience, engage in any sort of conversation or commentary that is not based upon reality and true premises.  This is another way of “going along to get along” that I simply refuse to do.  It is massively harmful to others to confirm them in their delusions or false premises.  Just to be sociable?  Just to be included in the conversation? Just to be liked?  Nope.  Can’t do it.  Won’t do it.  It’s a sin against Charity.
Look, you can tell me about how the United States is “turning it around” when abortion is a capital offense and sodomy is recriminalized.  You can tell me all about how the U.S. is on the road to recovery when there are people in the streets weeping and sobbing on their knees begging the Triune Godhead for His mercy and forgiveness for spending the last fifty years proverbially kicking God in the crotch non-stop.  You can tell me about how there is hope for America when there are dead bodies of these oligarchs hanging from the lampposts after their trials and executions for crimes against humanity with full due process in accord with the Rule of Law.
You want to know what the first glimmer of hope will look like? Â Something like this:
Until then, save me the brainless rah-rah-team-elephant-yay-everything-is-awesome crap.
Isn’t that right silverngold , shame on you and all the others for propagating this nonsense . Enjoy your tiny lives .
Nathan’s girlfriend, Andrea, asked us to share the following:
“Nathan Cirillo was the most energetic, positive and happy man I have ever met. From the second he woke up to the moment he went to bed he was smiling and trying to make sure everyone else was smiling too. It breaks my heart that our future together was taken from us in such a violent, senseless way but his memory will live on with me and those who knew and loved him and every wonderful person that is sending us their love.
He was the best boyfriend I could have asked for and I will always love him with all of my heart. For those of you who didn’t know him, this is the kind of person Nathan was; standing in the kitchen deciding what we would have for dinner, my heart suddenly swelled with happiness over spending time with him and I said “I just want to crawl up into your shirt and stay with you forever” and without even a moments hesitation, like it was the most natural thing in the world, he pulled his shirt over me and popped my head through the neck hole next to his and just held me. I still smile (and cry) every time I think of that moment. Nathan would go above and beyond to make sure anyone he cared about was happy and I did everything I could to do the same for him. He deserves to always be remembered as the beacon of light that he really was. RIP Nathan baby, I love you Big Bear and you will always be in my heart.”
eeos, once in awhile I can see a little testosterone in your posts but nothing I ever considered a personal attack.
Augirl, I am very aware of Karma and will be happy to pay for any/all of my transgressions that I have not already balanced out when my time comes.
On Sandy Hook, the most important pieces of info I uncovered on the net are as follows:
Sandy Hook Elementary was closed permanently in 2008, 4 years before the “incident”. Â There are many articles on the net about this. Here’s one.
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/04/15/sandy-hook-elementary-school-closed-in-2008-a-stage-in-2012/
Almost all the “victims” families who lived in Newtown Ct had their home mortgages paid off on the same day following the incident.
http://memoryholeblog.com/2013/09/13/video-over-30-sandy-hook-homes-gifted-in-2009/
Several of those who had no mortgages  suddenly won large Connecticut lotteries, as did some of the other local officials who participated in the incident. Here’s just one.
http://12160.info/forum/topics/sandy-hook-victim-won-the-lottery-twice
On a personal note I have suffered the loss of two younger brothers, both murdered in separate incidents a few years apart, one a university student, the other a family man with wife and son. Then 20 years ago, March 3,1994, my wife, age 36, was hit and killed by a logging truck near our ranch in BC. That was the worst for me …..Rita was the joy of my life and also my “right hand man” on the ranch. Believe me when I say I have felt almost more grief,pain, and sorrow than I can endure.
So when I see or hear of someone faced with a tragic event I deeply sympathize and feel their pain, just as I have felt my own. On the other hand, when I see a staged event….and they’re not too difficult to spot…. I call them as I see them.
On Sandy Hook I have no doubts. Pure HOAX; on this last one I would call it at least suspicious pending more input, more videos, etc but at this point I’d call it another HOAX. IMO!!
All The Best……..Silverngold
That’s funny, when women have a opinion of something it’s PMS Â which seems to be a mans way to side step the issue. In fact women have died because of this Pseudo superiority complex by incompetent doctors. So what is it that men have when they make their opinions?
Perfect. Valium with a rum chaser. Few things better to kill the pain. Do you treat US patients? If so, I’d like you to be my Doctor! 🙂
ment17 – agree completely, just another night, after another night, after another night…after…never mind. Of course you are right, the paper players are in charge and on overdrive. Dumped $1.5 billion of paper gold at 12:31 am EST today without regard for price. Nobody does that unless they intend to destroy the price. The only hope is that they are trying to destroy the last of the gold longs either in advance of the Swiss referendum or in advance of a massive move higher. I hold out hope for neither. What a total disaster.
Wanka – it’s unfortunate that we have no honorable leaders left in the country. Obola should have been removed years ago, but we can rest assured that not only will the Republicrats not seek to remove him, but they will try to accommodate him while whining and crying about how unconstitutional he acts. As for North, why even bother?
no pm issues, good to know on a oasis blog board… thanks augirl for clearing that up lol
ABX. Â $10.97
Sweet …….. I own some …….. Whole bull market move obliterated
I bot maur Phyzz silver TD tho …. Ease the pain ……. Valium 10 mg and a couple shots of rum.

French police arrest three in nuclear plant drones probe
PARIS, Nov 5 (Reuters) – Police arrested three people found in possession of remote-controlled drones near one of the nuclear plants involved in a series of mystery overflights by the unmanned aircraft, a source close to the investigation said on Wednesday.
Two women and a man were apprehended near the Belleville-sur-Loire nuclear plant in central France and two drones were confiscated, the source said.

“”The pioneers always get the arrow collection!”
LOL I’m sure there’s lots of knife cut hands out there.
if you feel like I’m someone thats attacked you for past postings, let it slide. Sometimes I just like yell at people. Ha.
I do have a close friend that knows a victim’s family from Sandy Hook, and I’m not going to ask if it’s a made up story b/c that’d really peeve the heck out of him.
so the mint sold out of silver eagles a piddling in the derivatives based silver fix … hardly a game changer but some small sampling of silver guys bought… close to bottom.. who the heck knows .. carry on
No I don’t have PMs issues but thanks for asking.
The Newtown slayings of 26 innocents has NOT been proven to be a hoax . The exception being in the kangaroo court of the internet where anything goes pretty much like the wild , wild west.
You continue to disrespect the dead and their families . That is a fact.
And if there is any karma or justice in this world it will be that one day you will be brought to an auditorium filled with all the family and friends of those murdered that you accuse of being mere actors and hoaxers.
Then may they all rest in peace.

Seems I’m always too early to jump into markets. I now wait for 4 moving average crossovers. The gold and silver averages were moving sideways in what I thought was going to be a crossover. The Santa claus rally in the stock market has me a little gun shy so I am still waiting on a pm buy.
“”The pioneers always get the arrow collection!” Don’t be too early!
Can be sure Obama will make an appearance.

You said:
“Either you are the most naive, gullible person alive or you have some sort of weird sicko agenda.”
This is at least the second time you have personally attacked me for my opinion. Probably the third. My inclination is to inquire if you have PMS issues and that is the reason why you go on these attacks, but that is none of my business so I won’t ask. I will admit that the author of that video was very irate and over the top with some of his statements but, like me, he could not see how anybody that didn’t need a seeing eye dog could watch that amateur acting and actually believe it was a real incident and not a staged event.
I agree it was pieced together from various sources but that is because there were various sources filming the production so they had to be put together for his video.
If the Honor Guard was actually killed I am in full sympathy with his widow and children, but such scenes as the fake CPR footage Leeds me to believe it was a very poorly orchestrated HOAX, just as the Sandy Hook School incident has been proven to be a HOAX.
Anyway, I hope you are feeling better and I wish you all the best. Â Â Â Silverngold
