Loading ...So far the green in the miners is off setting this morning’s trade so hanging on a little longer. Profits? What the hell is a profit? You mean I’m supposed to make a profit doing this?? My CPA wouldnt know what to do with profits, and I already have ten years of past losses to write off.
🙂
Sucking it up and busting a gut, one day at a time. GRRRRRrrrrr ! LOL
Too bad, I could have used that reward money. 🙂
I don’t know about the pm’s. The scum is all over the metals and the shares despite the USD being down 0.4%.
So, in my infinite wisdom, I can only surmise that the USD is going to mount a comeback OR it will be another day where correlations don’t matter at all.
I want you to be right and bank some profits, just doesn’t seem like the scum is going to let these things off the mat.
I’ve been thinking a long time now, the bone heads running things, aka TPTB, use bashing silver to hurt or hold Gold back.
Gold is obviously a lot harder to control, since its global and where all the really big money parks itself. Silver is more like Copper, and they can easily manipulate them. Like they always do.
re Your: “I’m sure the prison guards are planning a ‘Welcome Home’ party for the two cop killers.”
Just maybe….??
Maybe we get a small pop in the phiz yet.
Lost our chance at that Reward money. They caught the two banditos in Tenn last night. And like Alex predicted, after firing a few shots at police during a 12 mile road chase, they surrendered like the cowards they were. Georgia is seeking extradition ASAP. I’m sure the prison guards are planning a ‘Welcome Home’ party for the two cop killers.
USD at the lows of the day – same with gold and silver.
AMZN screaming higher after buying Whole Foods which of course is also screaming higher.
Sure glad I didn’t buy AMZN 15 years ago.
Some years ago I read one of Winston Churchill’s books about his time as a young officer on the Pakistan (India at the time) Afghanistan border before the turn of the century. He said that when they were on patrol and got fired on that they’d head over to the nearest village and burn it down. After a while no one fired at them anymore. Different times!
Good luck. USD is sliding a little but that correlation is always suspect.
I’d think if you’re right, the JNUG will turn higher first.
Dont like going long on a Friday, but think the dollar may drop today, and that the PM’s have been oversold.
Worth a try, and finger on the trigger if the trade goes south on me. Hoping the miners can lend some support to my WAG.
Someday we’ll be the “wackee.” err “wacker.” 🙂
Whatever/Whoever it is they clearly lack any empathy.
Looks like another day of whack-a-mole
These days I’m leaning more to the “Lizard Theories.”
Our involvement there is a true tragedy. We should have gone in and bombed the hell out of our enemies and been gone in a week. Now it’s gonna be a festering sore ….. forever.
If you want an interesting story, then read about the British involvement there in the early 1800’s and the retreat from Kabul.
South Africa just hiked black ownership rules, miners getting crushed
Mining companies operating in South Africa, including Anglo American (LON:AAL) and Sibanye Gold (JSE:SGL) (NYSE:SBGL), saw their stock collapse Thursday after the country’s goverment increased the minimum black ownership requirement for local mines and set a 12-month deadline for them to comply with the new rules.
Under the revised version of the country’s Mining Charter, companies now have to raise their black-owned stakes to 30%, from the previous 26%, to ensure more proceeds from the country’s natural resources flow to the black majority, Mineral Resources Minister Mosebenzi Zwane said, FT.com reported.
Sibanye, South Africa’s largest gold producer, dropped 7.4% at 1:00PM in Johannesburg and it was 2.65% down in New York at 10:00AM ET, while AngloGold Ashanti (NYSE:AU) was 2.80% in New York at 10:04AM.

Bottomless pit indeed. I think I read this week that Trump turned over control of troops in Afghanistan to the Pentagon. No doubt we will be in a perpetual war against terrorism forever.
I really wonder sometimes what influences the thinking of those at the top of the pyramid.
It can’t be human can it?
A court in the U.S. District of Columbia is allowing Canadian Crystallex the possibility of advancing in a legal dispute against Venezuela, following the expropriation of its assets in Las Cristinas gold mine in 2008.
The decision, which was made public last week, allows Crystallex to enforce in other U.S. jurisdictions a previous ruling issued in March by the same court. Such ruling upholds an award by a World Bank tribunal that orders Venezuela to pay the miner $1.2 billion in compensation plus $200 million in interest for what the Hugo Chávez government did at Las Cristinas.
Both the March and the June decisions are crucial steps in the company’s quest to seize Venezuelan assets in the United States. In fact, the Toronto-based firm could now seek an attachment of assets such as Citgo, a refining and marketing subsidiary of Petróleos de Venezuela PDVSA.

US to send 4000 more troops to Afghanistan. In 20 years the situation will not change. We will still be losing soldiers and spending billions.
and where just men. They laid down the rhetoric, the libel, the slander, the lies, and the hate speech and joined in a common cause. I would like to think it served to remind them of a greater cause above their own ambitions. Reminded me of a Christmas Eve on a cold night in 1914.

No fishing for me today. Need to try a coax a few dollars into the trading account. Well, thats the plan anyways.
Armed with a cup of determination and my lucky set of dice, lets see what the day brings.

the Baseball Game should have been cancelled in Protest to the attempted assassinations of republicans and the SILENT Democrats BLAMED for not condemning these outrageous acts of violence against a President and other Republicans. The so Called friendly Democrats are ACCOMPLICES in Silence ,they pretend to disavow with silence ,but dont condemn what their more crazy accomplices do.Public opinion is what needed to get the DEMOCRATS to condemn this crap just like the Silent Muslims cant have it both ways ..they need to not just condemn the crazies ..THEY need to stop them.The Democrats need to stop their crazy cohorts or take blame along with them,they cant have it both ways. The democrats have learned from the Muslims about avoiding BLAME ! The Trumpsters need to BLAME the SILENT Democrats just like Trump tells the Silent Muslims they can longer remain Silent ..they have a Responsibility ! Cancelling the GAME that denied Funds to a Charity would have made the POINT that the PRESS couldent ignore ..its all your Fault the Funds were LOST.. YOU encouraged them like silent partners in a crime ! Instead the Democrats commit a crime and still get credit for doing “GOOD work” ..Whats that all about ! DENY them the GOOD PRESS for what they FAIL to do..Stupid Republicans…!
Engage the public TO CONDEMM THESE DEMOCRATS that allow their crazy cohorts to hyjack the Democratic Party or they are all guilty.!
The Democrats have THE Responsibility to stop them..ITS THEIR PARTY !
I agree with you, those shots are loaded with toxins. Heard flu shots still had Mercury too but couldn’t verify. They could also have Squaline which messed up you immune system. In my case it’s being exposed to kids who get shots at work I believe part of making them sickly getting me sick. Every year now. It could have opened you up to an opportunist infection. Some things takes a certain amount like bacteria which can grow other wise your immune system takes over but the vaccines mess that up. There are twins that have died of vacvines. They say it’s a coinsidence. One horrific case in India the doctor of he was have a girl a shot and went into immediate distress so what did he do ever after the mother said not to gave the twin girl a shot to and she went into distress. They both died and he left town. Others recovering or being premature doing well goven shot and went down hill. Too many ” true” stories. Belong to a group with that.
Heres a joke that came out.
“I gathered all vaccine ingredients into a list and contacted Poison Control. After intros and such, and asking to speak with someone tenured and knowledgeable, this is the gist of that conversation.
Me: My question to you is how are these ingredients categorized? As benign or poison? (I ran a few ingredients, formaldehyde, Tween 80, mercury, aluminum, phenoxyethanol, potassium phosphate, sodium phosphate, sorbitol, etc.)
He: Well, that’s quite a list… But I’d have to easily say that they’re all toxic to humans… Used in fertilizers… Pesticides… To stop the heart… To preserve a dead body… They’re registered with us in different categories, but pretty much poisons. Why?
Me: If I were deliberately to feed or inject my child with these ingredients often, as a schedule, obviously I’d put my daughter in harm’s way… But what would legally happen to me?
He: Odd question… But you’d likely be charged with criminal negligence… perhaps with intent to kill… and of course child abuse… Your child would be taken away from you… Do you know of someone’s who’s doing this to their child? This is criminal…
Me: An industry… These are the ingredients used in vaccines… With binding agents to make sure the body won’t flush these out… To keep the antibody levels up indefinitely…
He: WHAT?!
the JAIL HOUSES in London are safer than that building was.If it was manly low income housing and subsidized then the minimum should be safety and Functional .It dosent need to look pretty …just SAFE and Functional no less than the JAILS ….A Heating system running water and toilets . I think Somebody caved in to pressure and tried to make it look pretty but didnt want to spend on fireproof materials .Thats my guess..Political Correctness was the cause .
i SUSPECT MY LUNG SITUATION WAS CAUSED BY A PNEUMONIA SHOT I got at the doctors office 6 months before !
I,v never been sick since I was 3 years old. I let someone talk me into getting the shot…I will never do that again.No flu shots either…
Im really suspicious because MY oldest son had never been sick for 55 years and he let his wife talk him into a flu shot and guess what …6months later he got very sick from a flu thingy ..I really couldent resist the “I told you so ” He was in disbelief ,but as a scientist(PHD) he had to consider that I could be right ..the coincidence is never coincidence .Mutation is possible in both Flu and Pneumonia shots .None of my 4 children were ever sick as children..in fact for first 6years of school ..never missed a day ! BUT that was all before these multiple combined child hood disease shots .They did get individual shots as children before school started measels & such.But what has changed is the Preservative and combined shots that I believe cause the individual shots to act differently than when given separately .The immune system attacks everything when its overwhelmed with multiple foreign shots. WE need more study not on the shots individually ,but on the immune system reactions to multiple shots given all at once.You cant use tests on reactions from individual shots as a basis for approving multiple shots given at once ..Its a whole different thingy ….Its all about the immune system not the shots itself .The system can deal with one attack of foreign body very well ,but multiple attacks thats a different story .Thats the view you dont hear discussed by drug companies.
