I do not like believing Assad/Vlad over our people…..but something very strange happened in Salisbury to the Skripals. The whole story is now unravelling fast.

I have yet to understand why certain people seem dead set on haveing a war with Russia and when you consider that most of them are the worst people we have, Blair, Osbourne, Cambell, Patten in the UK and the Clinton crowd in the US. Exactly the same crowd who created Iraq and Libya, it looks even more supspicious.

but early days, as Dollar cleary getting offered.

What’s severely flawed is the U.S. thinking we have some sort of “moral high ground” after 17 years of war and killing over a million people in the region.

Further, who appointed us the world’s policeman and who decided that the use of chemical weapons to kill people was worse than killing people with napalm or phosphorous bombs or anything else? Why are we selective when it comes to our policing and our supposed outrage?

Shall we bomb South Africa because they are essentially trying to genocide and steal the land of white farmers? How about Saudi Arabia, for bombing and starving children in Yemen? How about Israel for using Palestinians as target practice?

That’s some severely flawed thinking.

Not sure about SM, as that is insane….But Dollar looks offered and there is a clear bid in the PM’s…..

GDX close above its 200 D av on Friday……if it can hold then we shud see a lot of T/A buying….then again these are PM stox…so due caution required.

Meanwhile Bond’s ain’t backing off…

Read a lot of boards and not mny are buying the official Syria story….Having some PM’s here makes sense, with SM so Hi and so much potential tension in the world….

Definitely could play out like you surmise. USD taking a decent hit today, we’ll see if gold decides to ramp or get held at $1350

option expiration on Friday plus that report be Schaeffer about an historically high put ration on the SPX that could provide a floor…I could see one of those days where stocks roll over but don’t go into the red…then rallies the last hour….

Euro markets have rolled over, USD flat to down, pm’s flat to down a little

DOW on the obligatory 150 pt. pre-market ramp but if Europe stays down I’d expect the DOW to follow.

Happy to be wrong.

My sister in law caught between her new ride motorcycle pic decision sent a lot of pics from Wisc. Including the lake which looked like tsunamis, and very large snow drifts. My niece posted a pic with her wearing a big black hat amoungsts her big blue eyes saying ” For the love of God when will it stop snowing.” Lol

My nephew in central Wisconsin had over 8″ today.  He says the four seasons in Wisconsin are:

Almost winter

Winter

Still winter

Road construction.

That’s a bit different than I learned.  Four seasons are June, July, August, and… Winter.

Ps Once in Aruba I brought my Aussie slash Cherokee and more daughter and her husband along to Aruba and while she was out there on a dare ride on some tube getting thrown around by a speed boat I was calling them over to be having the Arubans crack up trying to surf on their wake. She was tough held on while others went flying. She told me how tough it was. Some day I’ll tell her why lol

Yes Robert Plant. Yes but he was a Conch probably wouldn’t of left when the hurricane hit but he was sick.
Mi Stima Aruba ” Papiamento” but no surfin there except one side ” we find away” but you’d get your board confinscated.

This is what i think of wanka, with his home in the first 10 seconds of this gem…

the most Machete killings in Londons History..the Hallmark of its Mayor and the company he keeps  ..Arm the Police and tell them to use it,then you’ll see if anybody wants to take a Machete to a Gunfight….Issue Permits to the Native born Christians ……

I thought of Wanka tonight when a song came on. Little by little, I can breath again.

One of my young patients found this one on YouTube. Frosty Has a new hat. Guess what kinda hat.

“Sir, the defense contractors are chafing at your plan to pull out of Syria.”

“Screw ‘em! Tell ‘em to start building airliners or something!”

“No sir. They built a new cruise missile that needs testing. And we need to get rid of the excess inventory of older missiles. Rebuilding the war stocks will stimulate the economy. Besides, if you don’t strike out at Syria now, we may not have another opportunity for a long time.”

“But I said I want out of Syria!!”

“Sir…. you wouldn’t want the stock market to crash, would you? And what about your lawyers?”

Sigh! “OK, tell the Generals to execute their plan now.”

“Thank you sir. I’ll tell Mueller’s team to back off a bit.”
