Ukraine Rocked By Corruption Scandal, Wave Of Top Officials Resign: Sports Cars, Mansions & Luxury Vacations As People Suffered

What do you think of the action in SNWGF? Pretty poor share action lately even though they continue with big intercepts. They even got down into oversold territory for a bit. A takeout would be nice!

At least we’ve come off the bottom and have been trending higher for a while. Makes life easier!

No mania yet.

Congrats on your marriage!

Thanks for checking in and your support. Posts don’t have to be masterpieces. Look at mine! LOL

My first interest in precious metals started in the 60’s.

Bought 10,000 oz silver. (on margin) from a swiss bank. This was before the exchange’s were open. BIG mistake. Lost my shirt. Not a good way to start a marriage.

Well here we are 60 years later and still married to the same wife. (Very good woman).

A little older and hopefully a little smarter. With the market now, my bank account is a little better and my wife is a little happier.

During the thinly traded night markets when everyone is sleeping on the east coast, magically the Gold or Silver prices crash, and normally the crash open numbers would scare the gold traders into selling more and drive prices lower and sometimes even start a 1, 2 or 3 month decline.

Check out the chart at 3 am. then at 8 am. Then the smart guys or the banks that bashed it down start buying on lows at 10 am. TPTB simply can’t win anymore, they already “lost it” long ago when Bernie Madoff was first to be screwed by the system reversing on them all.

In fact its in TPTBs better interests to buy all the Gold they can get on lows, because they will need it and want it when the Feeble Reserve Note takes a good shit for itself some day and drives gold inverse way way higher. So in other wards, TPTB are unwittingly on our side too now. Waiting and expecting some kind of black swan that can just pop up out of nowhere like we’ve seen before.

Well, then everyday tell people what you are thinking, what you have observed etc. Get your similar type friends to join and post. Or you post for them. See, you just caused a post by posting. LOL.

Parts:

Donald Trump reacted with glee after a former FBI official who was involved in the investigation into the alleged ties between the former president’s 2016 campaign team and Russia was arrested.

“The FBI guy after me for the Russia, Russia, Russia HOAX, long before my Election as President, was just arrested for taking money from Russia, Russia, Russia. May he Rot In Hell!”

McGonigal was one of the leading figures behind the investigation into alleged Russian collusion in the 2016 election.

In 2019, special counsel Robert Mueller‘s investigation determined that there was no evidence that Trump and his campaign conspired or coordinated with Russia to interfere in the 2016 election,

Comment:

Like I said long ago, the USA does not have its own gov’t. We have someone elses. No gov’t would do to its own people what this one did to us. Plus the result of idiots running for office, and idiots brainwashed by the mass enemy media being allowed to vote for fellow idiots.

Idiots in Media rearing and creating idiots for the benefits of foreign or global special interests. The American people could have stymied and prevented what happened to the USA if we were led by a pro USA media to simply boycott imports. Like they got us to use seat belts and stopp smoking.

Well the bad guys got away with robbing the entire country. Note crime, drugs, gangs, mass shootings, homeless, loss of industrial base etc leading to the $32 trillion credit card debt.

Trump was a little American guy with money fighting against a 50 year decline in US living standards and going against the big bad guys. Hes lucky they didn’t make his plane crash n look like an accident. I can’t believe he wasn’t physically assassinated, but was media assassinated instead.

I think of anyone here you might be the poster that is most like me as far as pm’s go.

I hope you and Ipso are right and this ends up being a big year for us.

I thought the same thing last year when we got off to a good start in the shares and gold was over $2K. Unfortunately, the rally ended in April or so.

The other thing, doesn’t gold usually go down during the Chinese New Year? We’re in Day Two, so far, so good.

How long? Since you handle all the paperwork and finances, I think it’s up to you.

How about we give it until the end of the year and see how things end up? I suspect participation will perk up if we can put a run to $3K together, maybe we’ll have some folks wanting to get in the game.

Ipso and Buygold,

I certainly appreciate all of your efforts to keep this site going as I read your insightful posts everyday.

Also agree that this could be an explosive year for the metals, but I’ve been thinking that for quite a few years now.

Gold and silver … nice turnaround!

Out for a bit.

Agree to all of that. The current silver price is fake and the longer the rigging goes on then the bigger the price explosion is when it ends. That’s the premise I’m operating under anyways. I have a feeling that 2023 is going to be a wild year.

With so little participation here at the Oasis … how long are we willing to keep it running?

Pretty refreshing not to see downside follow thru in silver after being down $1 a one point yesterday. The bullish signs keep stacking up, but I have a hard time believing we’re on the cusp or at the beginning of a monster rally.

20 years of beatings has me always looking over my shoulder.

Metallic Minerals Announces Gold Production Royalty Agreement with Parker Schnabel and Little Flake Mining of Discovery Channel’s Gold Rush Television Series

If you look at the charts everything rotated at the same time in September. The dollar started dropping off highs. At the same time every thing else stated climbing off lows.

Gold $1650 and the miners bottomed along with the Dow in September. Normally we used to go opposite the Dow but this time we went down in sympathy with the Dow. Also in Sept Bonds started climbing, so rates started  dropping in September too.

So the $64,000 question is, what the future direction of the Feds dollar and their rates going.

https://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=CURRENCIES&p=w1

Even all the energy’s bottomed couple months later in December.

https://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=ENERGY&p=w1

futures at $1954, whether it can hold or rally more is anyone’s guess. Silver up close to 1%. USD flat, rates flat, SM flat.

Looks like we’ll have to make our own momentum today, doesn’t appear we’ll have any tailwinds.
