Hope you have all the preparations including bandages etc. and extra gas. Let us know what’s going on if power isn’t out. This could take roofs off, windows blown and surges and flooding. Stay safe. I suppose Farmboys over there having a hurricane party somewhere. This looks like a bad seen coming your way. But otherwise great place.
head fake sucking in more rubes?
…..or smart $ front running China Monday?
Stay safe. Prayers for your safety have been sent out to the Big Guy. Is evacuation an option for you? Don’t know what the path is for Matthew but it looks pretty devastating anywhere close to where it hits. The prospect of it doubling back and around sounds like something I don’t even want to think about. Be vigilant and hopely this dang thing leaves you relatively unscathed.
“The logical thing would have been to donate money to the Clinton Foundation and requested being appointed Ambassador to Belize.”
NOW you’re thinking! Hmmm… I’ve donated money to Hawaii County. Maybe I can be the ambassador to Pele?
and weather the storm!
Love ya man
Vladimir Putin Banner on Manhattan Bridge
BROOKLYN — A giant banner of Vladimir Putin was mysteriously hung from the Manhattan Bridge Thursday.
Posts on social media showed the banner — which featured a picture of the Russian president above the word “Peacemaker” — hanging from the bridge around 2 p.m.

Might be a cat 4 hitting. Power could be out for weeks. Hope Wanka has plenty of 02 tanks and a power back up Incase it affects him.
“Rates have been falling for 30 yrs and the markets have rose along with them. Everytime the market thinks the fed will raise rates, the markets tank. The markets rally on bad news, I think, because they believe the fed will not raise rates if the economy is weakening.”
The problem here is that rates on the 10 yr. have risen for the last few weeks, yet the stock market has been stable. IMHO, there is no way to reconcile that.
Agree with you that a weakening economy is good for stocks as they won’t raise rates. Just can’t figure out why all of a sudden the criminals think rates will rise and they have no effect on the SM. Gold is a barometer of exactly nothing at the moment, except a rate rise? Really?
Guarantee, if Trump manages to win, rates will get raised and stocks will crater, but I suspect gold will rise eventually. Just sickening to see the corruption of these markets on a daily basis. This economy is not strengthening, but no doubt they’ll pull a strong jobs report out of their asses tomorrow to help Hillary. Gold will get slammed as usual and the SM will rally.
We’ll see I guess.
Remembered how that storm sat out in the Gulf for many days while the mad scientists engineered it into a killer storm. Then to add to the drama the government said it wasn’t prepared for it.
That’s good and why we don’t need political punts getting in changing the political agenda for immoral purposes.. Votes..

The fed in reality wants a strong dollar to keep their military complex intact. Since they can’t raise rates to strengthen the dollar, they manipulate PMs lower and the foreign CBs cooperate by keeping their rates lower or negative than US rates. Look at pundits like Schiff and others who have for years been predicting higher int. rates. They have been wrong. That’s just my opinion. I am probably wrong. Smarter people than me are wrong every day!
I am fortunate to live in a state that requires registration and a picture id issued by a government entity. To get a ballot, you present your id with photo and address. The address on the id must match the address in the book unless you have your voter registration card.
i wonder why Obama didn’t carry a single county in this state in both elections!
rno
If this site is run out of the Florida area I wonder if it will go down with the hurricane moving in. There going to be closing coastal streets and expecting power outs. You could do phone calls, you read from a script mostly answering machines. I think the script can be better though. Make America great again script. You’d just have to refrain from adversary’s no matter what because your representing something bigger than yourself.
A Hillary wins it will change the political atmosphere for the worst. Well get by I suppose but it will do certain heavy damage. As far as energy I have a Neuro condition in both feet now that started to gett worse a few years back. Started tripping down the halls of the hospital. As usual had to diagnose myself and ask for test. A late stage Cuz you can be born with it neuropathy called CMT.
Charcot Marie Tooth. Just glad didn’t get it when younger. Neuro didn’t think I had it so I asked for test, Yep I had it. So had to change kinda work I did prolonging retirement and takes more energy to do anything. Like twice the amount and challenges like walking across the room without spilling your coffee. Even little things I asked for AFOs but they were making my feet weaker so kicked them off. I’ll use them if I need to walk any long distances. It’s a real bummer and takes more energy to do everyday anything. Over work if it requires standing or walking makes it worse. It’s like you have so many steps in a day and that’s it. I learned that when pushing life I fell over in some bushes. I could Bradley drive so learned my lesson. This is just necessary and temporary then I slow down. It also cause pain, severe pain. Both hands and feet. Kind of cramps that pull on your joints, I didn’t want drugs so did some DD found a homepathics ” copper used Im history.. Ir copper cups” that helps stop them so don’t need the drigs but have them on hand, sudden cold can cause them. Had to stop teaching kids .. Special needs how to swim because of it.They had so much fun.. Something they could do. Anyways a pain but guee you just have to deal with it. Man plans God decided I needed a break lol
I envy your commitment and stamina. I’m not in an area where that type of thing needs to be done but even if I was I don’t have the energy to do what you’re doing. Kudos.
Why are supposed rising interest rates / USD bad for PM’s but not for the stock market?
I’m at the point where I really don’t care if anyone’s game is T/A, fundamental or any other kind of analysis, there is no way to figure out these markets, they are 1000% non-sensical.
What seems logical is never logical and hasn’t been for years.
Auandag – I’m with you about Rickards, MacGuire, Sinclair, Holter – all of them. They’ve been singing the same song for so long I swear there are sell pm algorithims attached to their speech.
Deutsche Bank was the major crisis according to Sinclair and Holter, since they said that – gold is down $100 and silver has been crushed. Guess they didn’t count on a major USD rally?
At least half the year was good for pm’s…
Well I’ll tell yeah Buygold, 9 hrs at work 15 at the polls then 9 at work isn’t gonna be fun. I’m not new to not fun and insane hours but as far as the polling going that long without a cigg is what I’m dreading. It would be nice if they split the hours up but they don’t.
I’m with ya. Enjoy the fishing.
I’m wondering how Wanka is holding up in that nasty weather?
That’s fantastic – really admirable. We need more people like you out there to protect the voters from election theft. I heard there will be a record number of UN “observers” this year which is probably not a good thing, since the UN is a NWO organization.
Thank you for your service!
But aren’t they having evacuations over there with the hurricane?
I’m going to be working morning till night at the polls. They asked me but I bet you can call to offer your time. Would be a long day though from 6 am to closing. With all the alleged cheating going on best to get involved. Will be interesting to see how many people show up and maybe get a idea who the majority are voting for in my area. If you need your own hours you can also locate your local area to see if you can make calls for Trump. I was contacted and did the primary’s but no time to do the election now.
Heres one who got caught registering dead people you probably won’t see on MSM. Also was surprised to see how many young didn’t know who Wikileaks was. Thought is was a conspiracy because they just can register that Hillary is that evil even if they’re behind Trump and many women still taken aback by Trumps innuendos that the Demo party puts on TV. RNC failing again by not showing how evil theis woman can be. Same for picking moderators for the debates.
What about all the unspent paper money out there? I’m thinking that number $152 trillion is probably also some ones else’s savings accounts or bond holdings, of unspent money. Not counting money under the mattresses, and in drug dealers storage units.
The debt level has surged to 225% of global GDP, according to the IMF
DELRAY BEACH, Florida – The markets continue to dawdle. Not much conviction in either direction.
We’ve already looked at the War on Poverty, the War on Drugs and the War on Terror.
So let’s move on… using our new lens to look at another of the feds’ fake wars.
No war was ever officially declared against the markets.
But for four decades the feds conducted covert operations… a dirty war in which they’ve tried to mislead, obstruct, and suppress market forces.
They used fake money, fake savings, and fake interest rates to confuse investors, businesses, and consumers.
They didn’t say so directly, but their purpose was to give out false signals so that people would change their behavior.
“Demand” was too weak, they said. What to do about it?
They flooded the system with phony savings (credit).
Price signals were distorted. Credit limits seemed to disappear. Debt limits were eased.
Then, in 2008, the war turned hot… with the feds actively and overtly holding down interest rates to push up stock and bond prices.
In response to the crisis they caused – by encouraging too much debt in the housing sector – they claimed that the “free market” had failed.
They were just responding to the “emergency,” they said.
Soon, everybody got in on the act – expressing an opinion about how high (or low) interest rates should be.
Believe it or not, an activist group called “Fed Up” argues that raising rates is… you guessed it… racist!
Institutional Investor magazine reports that a group funded by 32-year-old Facebook cofounder Dustin Moskovitz is lobbying against rate increases on the grounds that higher rates are bad for U.S. workers. From the website:
The truth about the economy is obvious to most of us: not enough jobs, not enough hours, and not enough pay — particularly in communities of color and among young workers.
Some members of the Federal Reserve think that the economy has recovered. They want to raise interest rates to slow down job growth and prevent wages from rising faster. That’s a terrible idea.
We stand with millions of workers and their families in calling on the Federal Reserve to adopt pro-worker policies for the rest of us. The Fed can keep interest rates low, give the economy a fair chance to recover, and prioritize full employment and rising wages.
What? Who are these people? Do they have tails? Horns?
They’re right about one thing: When the Fed tries to control the economy, it is politics, not markets, at work.
Markets work by persuasion and voluntary exchange. Politics works on force and fraud. Fed Up is a political organization trying to influence how the force and fraud is applied.
But let’s look at the feds’ War on Markets through our now-familiar scope. Read more
