Maddog – it’s an absolute tragedy what’s happening in the UK, both with the government and society. I don’t have the capacity to understand the kind of mindset (evil) that Starmer embraces. Clearly, the gov’t. is handing over the country to the invaders, but at the same time strengthening gov’t workers by pay increases and a better standard of living than the average Brit to keep them happy enough to enforce the plan. The police are a traitorous disgrace, enabling the destruction of white culture and white peoples. I believe that in addition to throwing you into the slavery of the one world government, there will also be a one world religion that involves Muslims, Catholics (the current pope is a heretic), and Protestants that are accepting of non-biblical culture, i.e. LGBTQ and abortion, which are outside anything remotely Christian. It will be an all-inclusive and accepting religion. Essentially anti-Christ. Without the populace being armed, it will be tough to turn. I suspect what you’re seeing is what we’ll see here if they install Kamala Harris. It still remains to be seen whether a large enough percentage of the US population would give up certain comforts and take up arms. I don’t know.
Captain – no doubt they knew the numbers and were ready, I’d argue that they’ve been ready all week, and if they could have manufactured a waterfall, they would have done so already. They still might if they get a dollar bounce that runs longs out of contracts. I could see that happening when Powell speaks – totally contrary. It does seem clear that they are getting less and less effective, more so with silver than gold. They will have trouble if US investors ever wake up to the gold market. For now, they can just slow the ascent, frustrating to watch when the dollar has been taken to the woodshed. It also appears the Yen carry has resumed its’ unwind, that is a long running program that I’m not sure we know what will happen and who will be hurt by it. Seems that we are just going to grind slowly higher, at least that’s what the shares are saying.
I see Bitcoin is jumping tonight, over $61K up 4% – look over here, this goes up fast! Oil below $72, just bizarro world.
