This Buffett had all sorts of food plus a  part of non cooked food where you decide what you want and give it the knife welding chef who cooks it for you but I had enough food. Real Wasabi too and glad I pre tasted it. It was hot. Surprisingly it wasn’t expensive. 34 dollars for TWO people with drinks for all you can eat and desserts and even ice cream.

Honolulu has (had?) a Japanese Buffet place called ‘TODAI’ that our friends would go to on special occasions.  Was expensive, but mass quantities of all kinds of food.  That was back in my working days in the big city.  We usually went on someone’s birthday to celebrate and stuff ourselves.

Well my friend who’s more open minded about both Bitcoin and Gold brought it up today and a petty much the price at 2500 and told her its up another hundred.  Her husband from here still not interested. She brought it up so is paying attention. Said some people she knows differ between Bitcoin and Gold and which I would choose. I would choose both for different reasons. It gave me the opportunity to bring up the digital fiat and to all the dollar only people are going to be screwed. Yes it better to stay quiet and the world will still be buying anything they sell.

Scum lost the battle this week, but it wasn’t from a lack of effort.

Yeah, I guess maybe the phyzz buying around the world is starting to finally put pressure on the prices? Seems like if it were just paper, they’d crush it like they always do. The fact that this is going on with the dollar up (and the SM down) all day is pretty amazing to me.

I’m with you though, quiet buying can go on as long as they want as long as the metals are moving up. It will just make the panic buying in the US that much stronger. At least they are being treated as monetary metals, even silver. I wonder what silver would be doing if they weren’t putting pressure on with paper contracts?

Even the miners are doing OK. Volume has picked up substantially in the last hour or two. probably option related.

I’m not watching too carefully although took some hedges off I might have to put back on. Too carefully as if the dollar breached support or if it’s setting for a bounce with new highs in other sectors. I’m glad too PMs are moving quietly. I don’t think there’s too much they can do to stop the phyzz with the world buying. . They’d have to  sell and the way things are that might not be a good idea even for the dollar. So with any bounce in the dollar we’ll see were it goes with the phyzz or makes just a pull back to next level of it moves up. It doesn’t seem to be making much of a difference today. If dollar breached a major support somebody should say something so maybe it didn’t yet.

They have a new all you can eat Japanese restaurant I told my friend about who is American but born in Japan. Too much food even frogs legs but hear the sushis good. Too bad I don’t have a bigger appetite for that all though will pass on the frogs.  I never heard of a Japanese buffett.  I guess that was a hit, she’s got people including her American veteran friends as she married one and ber church friends eager to check it out before we even get there. Her husband involved in the market and does good will not touch PM stocks and government retired can’t even mention it or something may happen. I don’t know but don’t want to find out.

.

wonder what’s up with that? Don’t usually see that kind of volatility.

I guess it’s a 4.5 trillion quad witching day today? Maybe something to do with that?

Yes, and it’s a beautiful thing to see 😎

Although the dollar is ridiculously strong today. Rates moving up. How long before they monetize?

that Dealers are having to cover in US session as well as London…which is why the smash down has failed so far…….

I probably did, huh?

Surprised we’re hanging in for now.

Let there be pm’s and nothing else!

outperforming in a weaker SM. Will be interesting to see if we can close above $2600 & $31 today with the dollar up a little.

So far, so good

I actually do think our day has come, and it’s funny, no one in the US markets even seems to know it. I’d guess that’s probably a good thing, fewer weak hands to flush. When we hit $3K in December, maybe they’ll take note. 🙂

Probably shouldn’t have said that, they’re listening ya know. If we don’t hold the gains today, you’ll know why. 🙂

I’m glad to be back!

Has our day come?

We are strengthening this am – go figure. Shares starting to strengthen as well. Dollar still up but showing signs of fatigue. Rates up a bip and a half now.

No reason for us to be strong at the moment, but somehow we are. Like it. Hopefully it holds and continues.

can we hold the gains? I have my doubts because the dollar is up a bit and has been moving up steadily the last couple of hours. The SM futures are also down a little, so I don’t know. 10 yr down a bip.

Nevertheless, gold is sitting at $2609 and silver at $31.30, up $23 and $.46 respectively. They were a little higher earlier but not much. Good to see for sure. The shares are firm, but not crazy, NEM up 1% premarket.

We’ll see who blinks when the Crimex opens. I know the funds added shorts in the last COT as the banks covered, but that was a week and a half ago.

Hopeful, but won’t be surprised if they take us back down. We know how they are with round numbers.

Note how the 200 day is capping all the Hi’s and how we are building a bull flag to break above the 50 d Av……the 2nd chart is the Spread going back to 1998 on a quarterly chart….which clearly shows how depressed the spread is still …at the record lows…..
