That was strange. Not like he bought a coffee in those days.
I started avoiding those valets when I heard in southern Calif at one place someone or more than one was making copies of their keys while they were having dinner. I guess they didn’t like the bad tips lol
You can almost tell the ones who never had those physical jobs or start up jobs with low wages by the way they tip.

Shovel snow, sounds life fun. Just remember when you get older it’s a higher risk of a heart attack in extreme weather with way do be careful. Maybe a snow mobile with a shovel on the front lol
Looks like AMPEX maybe others went short to cover any losses incase the price went back down and bet the wrong way maybe so stopped selling. Now I get a text on higher prices but not as high as it was but still too high to cover that I’m guessing.

I don’t remember his car, I don’t think it was amazing or anything trashy. I think even a normal person could afford a better tip or if they lost all their money then no tip at all, that would have been alright.
Still a pretty good close
I thought they’d take gold all the way down but they didn’t even with the USD up a half % – surprising.
Silver while off the highs still had a good day.
Some of the shares did really well, only laggards were the large cap miners like NEM and GOLD.
Be interesting to see if this is sustainable for the little guys, no doubt there will be a lot of pressure from the scum at the Crimex and London.
@Maddog @Goldilocks
Right thanks for the input, I gotta go out now and shovel snow, happy mining.
Mr.Copper
The machines sold tdys openings just like every day we get a strong opening….the programmes have not been changed one bit…they know their mates in the scum/Fed will bang it all back down and they can cover, when the longs puke…well that is the theory…b ut when u get the Chinese pileing in as well….and if the Indians wake up…which they will….well that is 2.6 billion people…..if only 10 % wake up…260 million….that’s a lot of oz’s.
They’re selling like crazy now…to cap the close….
Mr Copper 15:36
Last night before I stopped watching silver got to 29:64 so looks like the bigger manipulation is here and oversea is aware of this move.
Ampex just text me a silver sale lol
Lol a sale?? This is how they halt or bring down the market and do it in futures too raising the price. Here it might just be demand though.

Ya Know? With a little dumb luck? And Silver up near $29?
The givhead fund managers or their machines accidently short Silver and it breaks out higher again tomorrow and they get killed again.

If we really break out, then it will be interesting to see what happens …as my bet is there is no way the Crimex figures show anything like what is really short…U have the whole London mkt, which shows no O/I figs, then u have all the Dark Pool shorts, which I doubt are registered anywhere, then u have the offshore shorts in stox.
We have seen decades of them stomping the mkts and very few signs of them really short covering….hell they sold tdys opening right down, just like every up day since when…
Don’t get me wrong, I doubt the Fed will ever cover it’s shorts, they simply couldn’t, but there must be loads of their ‘mates’ who have piggy backed them, who will have to cover if prices go too far….
Ipsofacto
They’d have been great mates….imagine how long they’s spend arguing over the tip…..they’d still be there in the morning.
RECALL BIDEN ! along with Cal Governor
If Democrats can impeach Trump while out of office,the same logic demands that Biden be recalled while in office..WHEN The Constitution is not valid for one ,its not valid for the other .
Silver flagpole
Looks like a good place for silver to build a good bull flag or pennant. A five to seven day sideways movement would confirm it. Beware! A tight short squeeze will blow out any technical formation, resistance, moving average and anything else technical in nature.
Just a reminder, half the people (positions) in Comex silver are short. Watch the open interest (number of contracts). If it starts to decline rapidly, an explosive up move will follow. When all the weak shorts are out, the party is over.

Just curious what that big millionaire was driving. Was he a millionaire or a BS-er. It seemed our era where they took advantage of youth. Wanted them to work harder for less. It did teach us what waisted energy was with our time. I remember some boys telling me they would find golf balls on the court for golfers and some kid said some guy was trying to pay him with half a penny. I guess he not only trying to get away with paying only once cent but wanted two for one.
Maddog
When I was going to school in Reno in 75 I had this job parking cars at the Mapes Hotel. One night a guy came out and was talking to us about how he was a big millionaire blah blah blah. I went and got the guy’s car for him and he tipped me … a dime. Even back then a dime wasn’t worth much. It was pretty funny. 🙂
Bunker Hunt and this guy would have been famous friends!

When Bunker was selling his wife those vegetables, he had the Sarir field in Libya, the largest……..he was worth @ $ 55 billion in todays money !!!!
Move along … nothing to see here …
Facebook Oversight Reverses Hydroxychloroquine Censorship Decision
Facebook’s independent Oversight Board has ruled against the social media giant’s decision to remove an October 2020 post touting hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) – the antimalarial which Democrats and their media surrogates were cautiously optimistic about until former President Trump promoted it.
Mr. Copper
“These are good times to get rid of the ones that pissed us off the most”
Yep can’t agree more. Less sting when taking losses on a day like today. We’re going to need some losses to offset the gains … I’m figuring.
Maddog @ 10:28
Yeah but Hunt gave his wife a price break on those vegis. See he’s not all bad! 🙂
Today, $29 Silver, $1,000 Face Value Junk Silver Coins Contains 715 Ounces is $20,735, But To Buy One, It’s $26,490 “pre-sale”
So, what used to cost $1,000 now costs $26,000, which is about equal with the long term inflation rate. $1.25 minimum wages times 26 S/B $32.50/hr.
A $2500 Chevy pick up back in the day times 26 is $65,000 or more that you would have to pay today for one.
The old $40,000 house from back in the day, times 26 is supposed to be $1,o40,000 today.
So in reality real estate has under performed. If you add maintenance and insurance you lost even more. If you add property taxes too, forget about it. You really got screwed paying rent on the villages land.
Why is real estate so retarded in price? Very simple. The low wages and high property taxes gave it a big head wind on the retail prices. If minimum wage for example was raised from $10 to $35, 250% more, the entire workforce has a value pecking order.
So over time all wages would rise in unison, and higher wages would make higher prices affordable to more people. Kids out of high school would be buying new cars with cash or three year loans, and two-three years out of high school buying new or existing homes, some with 15 year loans.
Pluss the parents would avoid college costs, and get the kids out of the house sooner so they can sell the house and retire.
But the business gov’t Media says it will kill jobs. But in reality it will kill businesses that are NOT lucrative, and the owner can close small business and him and his employees would be able to get a decent job. a good job.
The livable wage would be the LAW that everybody and businesses would have to adjust to, like $145/bb Oil, $4.40 at the pump, and 18% interest rates to buy a house, businesses all adjusted to those things.
It would just be one more thing. It certainly would help retail too, which in turn would help Europe, China, S. Korea, Japan, Bangladesh, Outer Mongolia, etc etc
interesting that stocks, the $, gold, silver and the 10 yr/30yr are all UP

My NGD was about $13.20 aug 1st 2011–it was $5.20 July 1st 2016…it had nil earnings back then as now…it has never had a split…it went from 46 cents to 1.99 as I write….if we get a gold and silver stock mania like in 1980, not only NGD but almost any gold or silver company could go to incredible valuations…it seems that the “everything bubble” is back and alive and well
The $ index is UP!!!!! +.411
NAK
Up 25%.
Scum at work
NEM down on day and SSRM barely up…..both favourites of the scum…..we should get heavy metal attacks later today, or tomorrow, as smacking those two is often the signal, to the hedge funds to get short everything PM.

U asked about China and Silver….GATA caught this….the Chinese piled in Friday/Monday
