They should put a Olive Oyle wig and shoes on that shapeless stick man and voila, Olive lives. Then let him dance for Nike. That would be hilarious. Who knows he might set a Olive Oyle trend. Popeye might not be to happy though.

Did that really happen?

Hard to believe their marketing department went off on their own and made the company woke. I would think the company knowingly went woke and found out that 80% of the people they serve aren’t woke. These companies aren’t stupid, they know most people think that stuff is nuts.

Thanks Ipso !!

LOL!

If those names sound familiar, maybe you have heard them connected with ALADDIN super computer and BlackRock. All FWIW! Got Any Phyz??

One more beer and I’m going home.

One Bud Light later.

SNG says if you are using ETF’s and/or other Derivatives to make your fortune, you are about to be “SUICIDED”! Get the real thing NOW!

but I’m happy that I have a little $ to buy select stocks in any pullback that presents itself……IMHO, any pullback will be great opportunities to add to existing positions, and hopefully short and shallow……

Happy Easter to all!

up 236K vs 230K estimates

Maybe it’s better we aren’t trading today. USD looks stronger, the 10 yr is up 5 bips to 3.36%.

Oddly enough, Bitcoin has been recouping early losses. Weird that we don’t have pm pricing on the world markets, but probably better we don’t. SM futures are up a little.

Also weird to have Financial TV on with the SM closed. Somewhere bonds are trading though. I guess bonds and currencies make the world go round.

Massive Central Banks’ Gold-Buying Spree Continues for 11th Consecutive Month

If my car caught on fire for no apparent reason I’m sure I’d go and buy the same model again!

Somehow we finished flat on the day but most of the shares I follow were up. Another impressive showing given gold was dow $13. Silver held up though, more good news.

The Guru in me is going out on a limb and thinking we have a blowout day on Monday. I actually wish the SM was open tomorrow. I think we’ll probably get a miss on the jobs report that would be pm friendly. Maybe in a big way. We’ll have to wait until Monday to find out but…Just sayin’

Just hoping Cliff’s wrong wrong wrong!

As the article says nothing will happen overnight, it may well be gradual, but the move away from the Dollar has begun….but considering the alternatives…no other currency is that attractive, or held in sufficient amounts to really rival the Dollar..yet……but that means some may move into Gold first, as an alternative and if only a fraction of total reserves does, that is one hell of a lot of Gold they need …..!!!!!

Some CB’s are already and the ones that have have done well.
