buygold re AG first majestic news
i bought 3 silver stocks on the recent 2018 low one of which was AG
the dilution especially at unknown intervals caused a bit of panic here so we sold that one near the open today we had good gains and would have preferred to keep but been burned before in the old days with dilution
your thoughts on the news?
Going through the list of silver stocks eliminately the ones that we have a bad taste STILL such as CDE and those is geographic tricky areas leaves a short list
i may rebuy AG but i decided sell and take time to think about it

Shares don’t reflect the move in the metals at all and should be by now.
Rarely see a big rally in the metals without the shares leading, so it is worrisome for any kind of sustained rally. We’ll see. At a minimum we should have a rally that at least mirrors the one we had last January.
WTFDIK?
Mr Cooper
I remember the fire too I was a teen then. Was thinking they needed a escape lever to get out fast. So now you have a piece of your metal on the moon. You should of put your name on it.
You were smart to leave that one job laying off the seniors who had all that experience for the newbies because you know they were getting paid more than the newcomers. They tend to do that a lot everywhere and the quality of work for the company can sometimes go with it.

shenanigans, I hope not. Shares don’t seem to reflect the move in physical. Guess the ETFs have something to do with that.
So
the SM is open for a full day on Monday – Dec. 31st
That should be a good day for shenanigans. Will be interesting to see what they do with pm’s
Have a great weekend everyone.

re Alternatively, it may be a trader posing as a “pension”, hoping to spark upward momentum.
How about the Plunge Protection Team doing their job?
Goldilocks re Moon Landing
I remember the two little triangle widows each cost what a new car would cost back then. Also remember when a fire accident during testing killed three astronauts. The engineers removed all the molded vacuum formed plastic interior parts, brought them to my shop, and we had to copy them hand made out of thin aluminum.
That was a real bitch. Hammer shaping, welding, grinding sanding etc to make them look the same as the plastic parts. Grumman aircraft was a non-union place. If the boss liked you, after you changed their plugs points and condenser, you get lots of over time.
Layoff time the bosses laid off the senior employees with 17 years, and kept guys like me with only two to three years. It wasn’t fair, so I quit the later on, figuring the same thing could happen to me, with new bosses on a different project.
Republic Aviation, where I also worked on the “Thud” F-105 was union. Last hired first fired. Seemed more fair. That was my favorite job. I was swimming in money, we also were paid cash, currency in envelopes. Manufacturing was very good, 1962 to 1975 were very good years. After that??? You know the rest.
TPTB added or doubled the workforce with spouses, and started sending manufacturing work overseas.
Watch the close–the stock mkt. could be super bearish!!
And while we don’t know if it is indeed pensions, or someone merely frontrunning today’s forced buying – or perhaps just pretending to be them – at precisely 2:05pm, the NYSE TICK – an indicator showing relative strength of buy and sell orders – just hit 1,735, the second highest reading on record, as an absolutely gargnatuan buy order hit…
… sending stocks to session highs.
Putting today’s massive buy program burst in context, within just 15 minutes, we had three TICK prints that were 1,631 or higher. As a reminder, yesterday’s high TICK print – which helped send the Dow nearly 900 points higher – of 1,662 was the 4th largest buy order of all time. That means that today alone we have had three absolutely massive buy programs all within just minutes of each other.
While this was a little early considering yesterday the pension bid emerged at precisely 2:30pm, perhaps pension fund managers decided to be “less predictable” today and start the buying earlier. Alternatively, it may be a trader posing as a “pension”, hoping to spark upward momentum into which to dump positions.
In any case, keep a close eye on the TICK – if this is a fake breakout, we may see some truly historic downward TICK prints over the next 90 minutes.
Mr Copper
? Awesome I believe it. Russia announced there plans and competition was going on. They had only 4 months I believe to get a spacecraft together and into space, Not much time for a project like that and three lives at stake.
Goldilocks, re Apollo 8 Moon The L.E.M. Lunar Excursion Module
You brought me memories. I worked on that project, I made many various sheet metal parts that went into it. The ascent and decent stages. My parts are on still on the moon on the decent stage, the ascent stages I guess are floating in space. I remember it was a 24 hour a day non stop job. Tons of over time. 12 hours a day 13 days in a row. One day off required every two weeks. It was fun. But not easy work.
Hey Capt. Hook
Thanks for saying that, although there may be some folks around here that disagree. 🙂
I haven’t felt smart since maybe 2002, but have felt really stupid for a long time.
Maybe as you say just a little early, but hopefully we’re getting close.
Exxagon Only $68, I’ve Never Seen It Below $80
I know I didn’t spell it right. But that’s how my car dealer friend says it.:)

Seems to be making an ascending triangle. maybe we get a good run to the upside before any correction.

Apollo 8
50th anniversary, as the pressure to be ahead of the Russians.
The pilots were on NASA yesterday. They were funny and learned about what they went through. They explained being on top of that ship in the capsule was like being a ladybug on top of an antenna. If the bottom of the antenna moved a little bit the top moved or got swung around a lot. During the journey one threw up a couple of times.
There was a lot of funny comments but the last one was the funniest when they landed and a wave hitting it made it hard.
A navy diver was swimming around setting things up and life rafts were set around it. They seen him making the thumbs up sign as he moved around it and looking right at them so one remembered his face. They opened the door and the diver stuck his head in and then suddenly fell back.
He saw him after dressed in his navy suit. He ask him about when he fell back after he opened the door. Was it because of the way we looked he asked?
The navy diver said no sir, it was the smell.

You are definitely not stupid…maybe just a bit early.
All the paper games have finally used up almost all the physical.
We are close…whatever that means…days, weeks, or months — not years.
Cheers

As long as PM is seen as a safety net it will always be a temporary run to hedge. As soon as the trouble is over they will sell knowing the consequences if they don’t for some and others just disgard it, as seen as a place to park their money until it’s safe to come back out.
You can’t even always depend on patterns from the previous year without looking at its catylists first. It’s just not something you can buy and forget about. Most of us know that and why we are selling into buying. My conscious will sell early at a previewed target than sell to someone at the previewed very top and not let the buyer have any room to save themselves. I’m guessing that some are just Day traders or near Day traders not holding very long.
