The Demos always starting up trouble then trying to blame Trump for starting up trouble and interfering in his job. The market is reacting to the once positive expectations being blocked by these same Demons. I guess that’s their way of trying to save face with losing since they got away with it for so long. Imagine how bad it would be if they won.
But they keep voting these hoofed horned animals in office
California Governor Jerry Brown referred to taxpayers as “freeloaders” last week for objecting to his new gas tax and car fee hikes.
“The freeloaders — I’ve had enough of them … They have a president that doesn’t tell the truth and they’re following suit,” he said. Brown was speaking in Orange County, defending State Assembly newcomer Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), who is facing a recall effort after voting for Brown’s new transportation taxes in April.

21,000 dow
if the dow futures index doesn’t get back over 21,000 soon, the top may be in for several months. the s&p recently made new all time highs and fell away. new all time highs should have propelled the market much higher. some aggressive sellers here while some commodity markets are going straight up.

Ororeef @ 17:14 The Demoncrats And Deep State Dont Give A Damn About The Markets
Trump is beginning to drain the swamp (bye bye Comey) and they are hell bent on stopping him.
America is presently in the state of ‘Clear and Present Danger’.

If the FED or the Democrats attempt to take Trump DOWN ..its a Market disaster and the Democrats will be blamed …..
He is the only hope of a US Recovery ! Politics be dammed ! He has enlisted all the best Brains on Wall St. and they mean business !
Gold Throws A Welcome To 1260 Party, But PM Stocks Fail To RSVP
The miners were mostly absent from the Celebration. Pit Tee Full !!
PAPER vs. PHYSICAL: The Amazing Amount Of Leverage In The Silver Market
”
While many precious metals investors realize the massive amount of paper trading leverage taking place in the gold market, they should see what is going on in the silver market. In a previous article, I provided data showing that an amazing $9.8 trillion of notional gold paper trading took place on the world’s exchanges in 2016 versus $42 billion in actual physical gold investment. This was a paper to physical ratio of 233 to 1.
However, the amount of paper trading leverage in the silver market is much higher than that.”
PAPER vs. PHYSICAL: The Amazing Amount Of Leverage In The Silver Market
Industrials down 372
At least we avoided that …
I’ve done better with gold down rather than up $20
Discouraging.
I think this is not the bottom
The stocks are WAAAY too flakey. You’ll know bottom, and summer isn’t here yet, so I think they beat us some more. The shares are garbage
The Corbett Report, with James Corbett and G Edward Griffin
Don’t watch it if you do not want your belief systems to be challenged and your mind to be opened to all the other possibilities, This is a very honest discussion showing how easily we can all be fooled into making a wrong turn in our thinking, even these two sincere and totally honest people. It’s an eyeopener!!
eeos
As a shareholder, I’m not either.
Just trying to stay somewhat positive about the metals, although what they’ve done to silver is just as manipulative. Seems pretty clear they can do what they want, when they want.
Big seller just came back into SLV.
I’m not grateful as a shareholder
I’m feeling like just another day to get scammed. Right up in your faces too. Manipulation right up on center stage to be observed by everyone in the markets. We look like fools. Gold spikes and the PM stocks are held in the trace state
Well
Really hoping for a strong close in the shares but looks like one of those days where ya just have to be grateful the metals are higher.
We’ll be lucky if the shares hold any gains at all.
silver slapdown…
that pop we got in silver this morning was nice, but a little too good to last. the slapdown seems to be finding support at the rising trendline we have been riding the last week or so. more gradual rate of climb – more likely to be sustainable.
gold, on the other hand, seems to be holding most of this morning’s gains …so far. here’s hoping it keeps on that way.
“Money” or Money After 1913
Stocks bonds and real estate have been being used as a form of “money” for savings SINCE 1913.
AFTER 1913, Stocks Bonds and Real Estate are used as a form of money for savings. Federal Reserve Notes, AKA US Dollar, are just purchasing media.
They should be stamped…”Caution, Will Lose Value Over Time”
Monster sell orders coming in on SLV
Looks like the old “Hit silver” playbook. Guess if gold is too strong they go after silver instead.
We’ve seen this a million times before. So frustrating.
Buygold
Good thing too! I’m ready for some relief!
I suspect the PTB will let the SM go down today. It’s Trump’s fault you see …
Just guessing. I’m sure they don’t want some waterfall action to develop.
