“The proposal requires a simple 50% majority to pass (Volksmehr), with the further proviso that there be a majority in at least 50% of Switzerland’s 26 cantons (Ständemehr). There is no minimum turnout. The Ständemehr is the lower hurdle, since the vote is biased towards smaller, conservative cantons more likely to vote yes. In the absence of official polls, the proposal’s likelihood of success can only be gauged from polls conducted by newspapers and other media outlets. The most respected polls are published by the radio and TV platform SRG. According to their latest poll (another poll is due next week), 44% of respondents intended to vote in favour of the amendment, with 39% rejecting it.
Swiss pre-referendum polls commonly see the share of ‘no’ votes rise during the lead up to the actual vote, as the political and business establishment ramp up campaigns against radical proposals. However, it is important to note that the Swiss vote on three separate referenda on 30 November. Most of the political debate has concerned the ‘EcoPop’ initiative which seeks to curtail immigration to Switzerland based on a quota system. Some observers fear that the political focus on the immigration debate might lead voters to pay less attention to the gold proposal. There is also a concern that moderately conservative voters uncomfortable with the anti-immigration initiative might vote in favour of the gold proposal in compensation.”

doesn’t that increase the chances for a huge delivery month in December and the destruction of the silver rig from crimex? Makes a lot more sense to take delivery if your contract is in the money? Seems to me …
Go Baby Go!

Unbeknownst to us, a big player, has notified the Crimex that they intend to stand for delivery. Course it could just be the reversal in the USD too.
I guess if that were the case we might be up even more.
Just sayin’.

Next week, Italy’s Beppe Grillo – the leader of the Italian Five Star Movement – will start collecting signatures with the aim of getting a referendum in Italy on leaving the euro “as soon as possible,” just as was done in 1989. As Grillo tells The BBC in this brief but stunning clip, “we will leave the Euro and bring down this system of bankers, of scum.” With two-thirds of Parliament apparently behind the plan, Grillo exclaims “we are dying, we need a Plan B to this Europe that has become a nightmare – and we are implementing it,” raging that “we are not at war with ISIS or Russia! We are at war with the European Central Bank,” that has stripped us of our sovereignty

Its just a matter of time until the next news event that sparks new opposite trends.
Charts weekly bars, 1.5 years:

High prices are good, to provide on supply. Low prices are bad because they put suppliers and producers out of business. Then you end up with shortages and bidding contests.
Supply and demand no longer sets the goods prices. Instead, the Federal Reserve Dollar instability manipulative changing value, changes the supplies and demands. Too a point of obvious distortion of price, and then “reality” sets in and changes the trend direction.
