Yr probably right….I was getting used to watching Bonds and PM’s run with the SM falling apart…today they have not reacted at all.
But Bonds have got to big levels, 30’s. 10’s and 5’s are on their 65 week Averages and the 30 ‘s are also back testing the 80 month av…..
Have a great weekend.

The last hour of the week often hits us hard .
I just put in a lowball limit bid on JNUG ‘good until cancelled’ .
I sincerely doubt that it will ever be filled , at the prevailing price just a few days ago .

Not good but didn’t seem to matter this week – we’ll see what happens in a low volume week next week.

I’m not too worried about pm’s and the shares right now after a good snap back yesterday – especially considering the uber strong USD today.
How many years have we watched our pm’s get absolutely slaughtered and giving us lumps of coal for Christmas?
Finally, the stock market is giving what us goldbugs have had to endure for years.
Even though we’re down a bit today, I can’t think of a better place to be at the moment.
If this is finally “it” there will be fortunes made and lost IMHO.

10 million was raised by only 174 thousand people so far. With about 350 million people we got a long way to go.

Smelling money.

Democrats arguments are economically and security clueless. Contempt for the American people.
They don’t want to ” waste” money on a wall. They’d rather waste MORE MONEY on the costs of deportation and they just come right back over and over again. Then they clam they’ve been here for years now. They know how to game the system. Meanwhile they don’t show up for court committing crimes, draining our resources and bringing in drugs killing 300 young Americans a week and driving up taxes and costs of living. Demos now suddenly want more security measures instead, after calling for ending ice. Can’t trust them all talk. They already in Calif. police can’t notify Ice when letting out a illegal criminal with just resulted in the death of two American citizens. Our allies, our biggest majority of allies are fellow American citizens.
The wall should be movement sensitive and dug down 40 Ft deep.

Yeah the scum has tried all week to goose the SM. We’ll see if they can hold it all day.
IMHO the biggest risk to pm’s will be next week when volume is thin.
We’ll see

re the scum and the SM…yup they are active all day….today will be a biggy, as it is the last day before loads of people go away, I would imagine the scum are desperate to stop a bad day and even try and get a good day.
So how this ends up is gonna tell a lot, if they can’t hold it…a good day can be put down to scum buying. The Dollar is already bid and Bonds are up a tad from extreme lows….
Long term….I agree the SM looks shot. I’d hate to see what old Prechter is saying !!!!!
Not sure I have ever seen R640 so bearish….

This storm started after going off the Gold standard gradually after 1913. The storm came in off the Atlantic, and made land fall in NY the summer of 2008. The central planners think they created a recovery, but we were in reality in the 10 year diameter of the eye of the storm, the calm spot. Second eyewall getting close. After that? Clear sailing.

December has never in history been the worst month for the SM
Looks like it might be this year and that’s not good.
Did anyone realize the DOW is down 10% in December alone? I didn’t. Yikes, trading like the HUI
