Thanks farmboy I’ll check it out.

Appreciate the kind words and thoughts. Life seems to work best for me when I am able to rise above the daily noise, and get an eagle eye view of this ole world. Seems to me there is hope yet, as more and more folks want to get back to the basics of life, and that includes snatching back the freedoms that have been taken away. More turmoil to come? Of course ! But perhaps a brighter future awaits? And for the most part change is a double sided coin with turmoil printed on the flip side. Part of the process of the ages I suppose. And it is a process.

Like you, I am enjoying the gains in the investments. Sort of like finding that sweet spot in the tractor seat when the plowing is smooth, not too bumpy. The rows seem to straighten themselves. Enough sun to warm the back, but not hot enough to melt your spirit. The kind of plowing ahead where you can cut back on the RPM’s, and still get the job done. Yeah, that is how I am feeling, doing, in the markets these days. Sweet plowing. Feet turn into yards, yards turn into rows, and before you realize it, you look back and see a big part of the field is ready for planting. Its that kind of season for our PM’s.

And the kind of day when the work is done, you want to grab that woman with the apron in the kitchen, and just dance.

Wishing you a good evening, Farmboy

At the end of the article is a link to an interview with G. Celente. Worthy of a quick listen.

Gerald Celente

Know when to hold them, know when to fold. Yep it is hard. We can turn on the financials on TV everyday and hear about equities, even bonds, the economy, and get a sense of direction but never PMs. A occasional comment it’s up or down and that’s about it. That makes us have to look deeper into  what drives it and what doesn’t. At least with current events. You can buy and sell and still be a gold bug but don’t have to hang around and give back gains during a correction or down turn. Those who bought at the top in 1980 long would of waited a long time to recover losses as those who never sold if some guru told them to hold on till 1000. That is if their stock still existed by then. These Gurus IMO can use people.  You bet they trade as well as can be wrong. They also don’t pay your bills but many do pay theirs and wonder for the average guy or gal of its even worth it. You owe them nothing.PS in that getting their permission when to buy and sell anything. Especially when they want those who do to lose so then can gain.

Billionaire Eric Sprott Says Central Banks Panicking As ‘The Whole World Is Buying Gold Here,’ Including Druckenmiller

Gold 1241.00

Silver 17.75

“I see a similarity between Sinclair and Armstrong with the wait game. How many gave back their gains or missed a rally over that?  Armstrong talking about flushing the Bulls out. Effectively he’s saying in a selfish non compassionate way for them to SELL for a LOSS and maybe be wiped out to help him make money later. How is that helping people?”

It’s apparent that all these guru’s are traders. Maybe it’s been naïve to think anything different.

Sinclair seems to trade as well despite the “Be strong, Stay long” mantra. I’ve been shredded by “staying long” through thick and thin. Perhaps it will ultimately work out if we have a 1980 scenario. If not, especially these miners will bleed anyone holding bone dry.

Been a very tough lesson over the last 14 years. I guess you have to “know when to fold them, know when to hold them, know when to walk away and know when to run”

Very difficult with pm’s…

Best

It’s possibly going to be all the money people think they have reported on various statements that come in the mail. In other words, a reversal of the safety and confidence of giving up your money for a return.

Real estate may not be safe either. Real estate taxes in my area are out of control. (I rent) Multi page articles in the paper recently. When some home owner grieves taxes lower, they add taxes to the people who neglect to do so.

Bison, or ‘buffalo’ as we call them, have long been wild in Yellowstone National Park and other protected areas of the plains on the US side.  It’s about time they were let loose north of the border.  There are many private herds in the northern US states as they are raised for meat.  Leaner than cattle, the meat is delicious!

For our country its  political eletes that have about destroyed our country and with Gold bugs it’s Gurus.

Joe12 had a point, you can just pass up the post or maybe say ” Not my Guru.” Not in taking sides because I dont read as often Armstrong anymore but do like a his world posts. Just there is free speech as long as its not personally attacking someone. Same time Dont use third parties to negate another just because iArmstrong has personally Attacked longs because he couldn’t bully them into selling their shares at a loss to help him make money.

I think people get gurus because we unlike them are too busy or many of us to watch everything all the time and have learned not to trust institutions who were supposed to but lost us money they were so called managing in the past. Then came gurus. It just shows in the end the only one that can be responsible for your portfolio is you These guru  long pushers . Wait wait wait.. Wait for whaf? 2022 2032 2052. 2070??? People don’t invest to loose money or put it in a time capsule to find a century later not to mention the challenge involved with the bait and switch games.

I see a similarity between Sinclair and Armstrong with the wait game. How many gave back their gains or missed a rally over that?  Armstrong talking about flushing the Bulls out. Effectivly he’s saying in a selfish non compassionate way for them to SELL for a LOSS and maybe be wiped out to help him make money later. How is that helping people?  Not saying don’t read it if it doesn’t influence you in a negative way but that is not helping anyone in the here and now, the longs with respect to the PMs  or in their life time for that matter. Most here have enough experience to manage their own trades and can see him as another person who doesn’t know anymore than the rest of us what direction it will go long term because it’s subject to change. All we can do is speculate different scenarios just like him.

The next important milestone will be a day in June 2018 when the “observation” period will be over and the bison will be released from their temporary enclosure to be free to roam and graze in a natural area of ecosystems where they were once abundant over a century ago.

same to you, just use the wheel and move along. Why be long if Gold is going to the basement?

In plain words and, in my opinion, perceptually quite accurately too, you bundled up events of the recent past.  And you did not have to place a predictive time line on the changing setting.  It is happening now and it will continue to unfold with no specific target dates or deadlines.  Just think of all the internet and mainstream news browsing I could have skipped over the past few months if I would have just had your nice short summary at hand.  Thank you and best wishes.  On a side note, I cannot avoid saying how pleased I am that Silver Wheaton is showing strength recently, just like quite a few of the other PM-related holdings.  A nice feeling.

Well said, I agree with you totally my friend. Basically TPTB created a union of gov’ts. I suspect TPTB themselves know, for their own good, everything has to go back the way it belongs.

I noticed another little reversal in todays local paper. On Long Island they are looking for a location to build a drag strip. We used to have 3-4 drag strips in the ’50s and ’60s and they all disappeared. I blame the growing power of woman’s perspectives after 1975 for that.

Now they realized they are losing money jobs etc without drag strips and related businesses.

could well possibly be the movement that started in Maddog’s backyard, carried onward by Trump voters, and possibly put forth in France, Italy, Greece, Spain and others. The movement of and by the people, to take their country and sovereignty back from the Global planners.

Folks have grown weary of having those elites outside their own borders dictate everything from social to financial issues. They are tired of their own bought off elected ones selling them down the drain. Simply stated, they want their country back, their rights back, and the most importantly, the right to self determination. And, they are really sick and tired of having immigrants, that do not wish to assimilate, but annihilate, their way of life being forced within their borders.

Looking ahead, it is not hard to imagine if they are able to carry out further Brexit and Trump Revolutions, the next logical thing would be to gain back their financial freedom as well. Their own currency, which I would think would be PM positive in most cases. In other words, they are saying NO! to the elite Globalist Agenda and its ever reaching control over all aspects of their lives.

Really quite exciting to watch this as it unfolds. I think, it is the Great Game Changer of this next decade.

Maddog – my comment to eeos about sitting down was mocking his rude comment “He doesn’t know SHIT. So sit down and please be quite”  so yes we certainly don’t need that on this board.

Samb – just read my last armstrong post (the large image). He said “The next Monthly Bullish Reversal at 1256 is what defines this immediate rally. Gold MUST exceed that area to be impressive.” So if gold closes above 1256 on Feb 28th (month end) that would be a good start in changing the picture.

So if anyone wants to make predictions, they need to use what is going on. If Gold was weaned from the financial system after 1913? We can predict it will return. If big global corporations had a good time doing cross border operations? We can assume their wings will be clipped.

Making predictions in a reversal situation is simple if you can remember the things that went on. Forget about all the prior cycles and problems after 1913 to 2008. There is a whole new world order forming.

Joe. You say that you are looking forward to the Gold bottom if and when it occurs. However it did occur in Dec. 2015.  However the question that I have for you is simply this: At what Gold price point will you give it up and fold your bearish MA cards? $1300, $1500, $1800? Curious!!

The best letter writer I have ever read was the Late Great RR…..he called the mkts as he saw them and told u what he was doing in them.

The reason he wrote rather than just trade, was as he openly said, he was not the greatest trader, but he was very good at TA, particularly on the Dow Theory and above all loved writeing and realised mny loved reading him.

Anyone who can call mkts like MA says he can, does not need subscribers, just people to count his money.

That’s what I thought. so you sit down and shut your yap

That is not needed on this board….

Ok first of all I am a gold bull. I’ve taken part in a half dozen private placements for gold juniors. I have a boatload of shares in Mexus Gold (MXSG) from .01.  I’m looking forward to THE low in gold if and when it occurs.

Secondly- Martin Armstrong’s work is 100% based on price and time. He may speculate where things are headed and that’s probably why some of you here read tidbits of his musings about where the markets are going and *think* that’s what he’s forecasting but it’s not.

Take his specific call on gold end of year 2016. He said- if gold closes above $1060 one scenario should play out. If gold closes below $1060 another scenario should play out.

So whatever he speculates will happen in 2017-2018 is irrelevant until we saw how 2016 closed. As with anything you will get out of it what you put into it. And Marty has always promoted that you can’t trust any GURU including himself. He has built out his computer models to track capital flows and he’s had great success with it. I am here just to share what his latest computer models/cycles work tells him. If you don’t like it then just ignore it. Don’t read it. Move along. That’s what the scroller is for– to move onto the next post.

eeos – when’s the last time a former prime minister personally flew to a conference you held to give a speech? yeah. That’s what I thought. so you sit down and shut your yap and try to learn something from someone who’s had tremendous success.

Barrick Gold Corp.’s plan to sell its stake in the Kalgoorlie Super Pit mine to a Chinese bidder has stalled, as the buyer faces delays securing financing for the $1.3 billion deal, people with knowledge of the matter said.

Minjar Gold Pty, a unit of property developer Shandong Tyan Home Co., is also still seeking Chinese regulatory clearance for the purchase, according to the people. Barrick is awaiting an outcome and remains interested in selling to Minjar, which outbid other suitors by a large margin, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private.

Barrick may still decide to re-enter talks with other buyers or keep its 50 percent stake in the Western Australia asset, which is the country’s largest open-pit gold mine, the people said.
