I wish we had a Fairy Godmother like the SM does. Instead we have Wicked Goblin Cretins who vex us whenever possible.

yeah, definitely not from me. 🙂
I just don’t see how miners get much traction without rising metals.
I see the SM is poised to regain all of yesterdays’ losses. It’s magic!

Probably not from my buddy Buygold. 🙂
Yeah Ipso
The miners continue to hold up well.
Richard Russell must get his advice from LarryC 🙂

Gold equities may be better bet than physical metal – Russell
While the price of gold has meandered in a narrow range this year, gold equities have improved somewhat and an analysis of relative performance suggests they may have further to rally. Spot gold ended Thursday’s trade at $1,183.85 an ounce, largely unchanged from $1,183.55 at the end of 2014, as the precious metal battles the competing influences of a firmer dollar and concerns over a Greek exit from the euro zone.
However, major gold miners have shown some improvement, with the S&P TSX Global Gold Index gaining 14% so far this year. The Toronto Stock Exchange-based index groups together the world’s top gold producers, including No.1 Barrick Gold, which is up 20.5% this year in U.S. dollar terms, and No.2 Newmont Mining, which has gained 40%. The No.3 producer, Johannesburg-listed AngloGold Ashanti, is up 32% since the start of the year in dollar terms.
These are impressive gains for the top gold miners, especially given the steady price of the precious metal. However, gold equities are still vastly undervalued relative to the spot price

Good Morning Larryc
You make a good point about the shares holding up fairly well and maybe having bottomed out.
The thing that’s bothersome for the metals is that they’re no longer tied to anything. The USD has fallen at least 4% in the last couple of weeks, oil is up $17 off the lows. Economic news continues to worsen and the metals go nowhere. They’ve been completely hijacked by the paper players and the banks are easily keeping it in check.
I don’t know what changes that.

Thank you for your post. I have loved many of the recent articles at Veterans Today, but something always seemed “off” about Gordon Duff. I hope the new Veterans Truth network can prevent itself from being infiltrated, at least for a while.

Yes people are looking at that number and could break up or down. Tomorrow might tell hopefully.
A Political Forum with a side of Gold & Silver
Have we been too busy solving the world’s problems and not keeping a small eye on the prize? I have done well to forget, but looking back, the week of March 9 must have been  a real crapola.  It took gold down to 1150.  Since the big take down yesterday, I decided it was time to check over about 70-80 of the stocks I have NOT been keeping track of lately.  First off, yesterday’s take down didn’t do much damage.  Some stocks even went up. Is that a clue?  And after the week of March 9, most of the G/S stocks I track were up 10 – 20%, some more.
For proof, just check GDXJ, GDX, and GDJS. Â They pretty much reflect what I found in the individual stocks. Â This move has been running for about 6 weeks, and yesterday would have been a good opportunity to take it down. Â I don’t call bottoms, but we all know stocks can lead G & S. Â 1180 is an important number right now. Â We’re going to break out sometime, why not right now?
Just to expand on my previous night’s spin on Jade Helm…
With all of the discharging Obama has done of made military men and women, could there be a cadre still loyal to the constitution a la oath keepers?
Using Jade Helm to position key segments of the military over a very significant portion (oil, food, access to two oceans, large segment of population) of the US as a Trojan Horse coup?
Consolidate 4-5 states and then expand northward forming Cascadia? Seems similar scenarios played out in the Revolutionary war and also Civil war.
Could Jade Helm be act three?

Lol on the superglue. Something most of us had some experience with some way or another.
This isn’t for some wounds but could handle many. Steristrips work well for superficial wounds or  reinforcing closed wounds after sutures or staples are removed. I kinda made something like this using medical adhesive tape because steri strips aren’t always strong enough by cutting it like a steri strip on people .  This new one would and could replace bigger and deeper wounds as they also can be stapled in a couple places which is faster just zaps on and easier to take off. I’m guessing since adhesive and if not stapled you’d have to avoid getting it wet. Note if you do have a wound always cleans the wound first before closing preferably with normal saline you can google how to make it.

That thing looks like a bridge truss! What are they trying to close? …the Grand Canyon?
I have butterfly closures in my emergency first aid kit, and also some veterinary Super Glue for wound closures. As a kid in the 60’s, my uncle showed my cousin and me the new “Super Glue” he had for hearing aids. He put a drop on our finger and told us to pinch it.  My cousin and I spent the next hour trying to get our fingers apart without ripping the flesh off! Finally uncle applied some acetone nail polish remover and freed us.
I never forgot that lesson on how Super Glue cyanoacrilate bonds skin!
