as with both Bonds and SM unable to rally, after 1st hour that is v bad…… Gold shud be flying here, but the scum are clearly going flat out into the wall….I dread to think what their losses are.

SM headed down. Can’t even get a dead cat bounce! The writing’s on the wall and it’s some nasty graffiti!

Who knows. The fundamentals call for substantially lower stock valuations but the machines are working bearish gamblers hard so it looks like a stalemate right now. If the gamblers back off buying puts on the indexes stocks could continue lower tomorrow.

aren’t acting like a big selloff is coming – at least here in the early going.
Do we actually have dip buyers in the sector for the first time in a decade?

the rate on the Ten yr. is still down a tick to 1.37%
Bears watching because I’d think if they don’t start to tick back up, this bounce in the SM won’t stick.
Just sayin’

but as R640 says a vaccine won’t be ready for months in quantity, or testing…so that may account for the o/n rally then sell off, as people realised, it can’t stop the economic damage

looks very weak–treasuries are green…not by much…I see a 10%-20% correction at a minimum…Trump mentioned a vaccine today–that is nonsense–it takes a long time….they can’t just start a massive vaccination campaign on an untested vaccine
TIA, Pal-!!

Argonaut Gold (AR.to) impairs half its market cap
You have to scroll down the YE results NR to get to the fun paragraph as they don’t seem to be too keen on this info at the top of the missive. But make the effort, because when you do…
There were two significant impairment write downs in 2019: first, a write down of mineral inventory at the El Castillo Complex ($15.4 million) and La Colorada mine ($12.1 million) primarily related to changes in the expected recovery of gold ounces in the leach pads and second, a non-cash write down of the book value of the San Antonio project ($111.0 million) following the denial of the permit application. The associated tax impact of these, along with other results from operations, was an income tax recovery of $15.4 million compared to income tax expense of $6.7 million in the same period of 2018.
…you get to read how a C$276.5m market cap company has just written off assets to the tune of U$111m. That’s over half its current market cap in Loonie terms.

Yep. They’ve now taken away all gains from yesterday’s SM drubbing. As is the norm, pm’s can never be seen as a viable alternative to anything during a crisis.
That being said – you’re right GLD has an RSI in the stratosphere above 81 so we could drop a quick $30-40 to relieve the overbought.
I expect the shares to be the tell. We’ll see how beaten up they get on any move down.

Seems they are trying to break the PM rallying with SM declines…..Gold shud have gone above 1670 when the SM gave back all gains and sniffed the lows…but it was sat on and now getting hit as soon as SM rallies.
Still we are overbought…but that never bothers the SM …

but seem to have lost steam throughout the night.
They’re giving our silver a bit of a beating, gold a little too.
We’ll see if that changes if the SM resumes its decline today.
