Goldie – $3K
Wondering if that doesn’t come sooner than we think
Jobs numbers ugly across the board
Challenger Layoffs – 75K vs. 25K last month
ADP report – 99K new jobs vs. 140K estimates
Jobless Claims were better 227K vs. 230K estimates
Dollar inching back up now. Have to see what the 9 am crew has in store for us.
Numbers out – no harm, no foul so far
Dollar moving lower a little.
Seems we’re going up this am whether we like it or not. 🙂
Don’t know anything about Gatos or AG really but looks like AG will get the obligatory beating for having the nerve to buy another miner. Open looks to be sub $5. I wonder if they’ll ever return to their former glory.
Nice surprise in the metals if we hold the gains.
First Majestic
….is paying roughly a 16% premium for Gatos. Gatos is primarily a silver producer with their big mine in Mexico. Perhaps AG thinks that they’ll get more return on their investment when it comes to undervalued Silver…..
Mr.Copper @ 7:55
I hope so! Higher silver prices wouldn’t hurt either. Profits for the silver miners are not exactly stellar at this point.

@ ipso facto, re AG merger with GATO
Maybe it will help AG stock get up and go for a change.
Buygold
Thanks for that news. I have no idea what the Fed will do. I’m really impressed with gold’s tenacity will everything falling around it. I was expecting it would loose some momentum but not as bad as everything else as far as the phyzz anyway. But then, the central banks are buying thanks to the current politics. the world is buying. It’s heading for that 3000 target.
Goldie
I do believe the Fed will go a half point instead of a quarter. Could be the driving factor. The jobs numbers lately have been abysmal. Don’t know what they’ll be tomorrow but if they’re better than expected, no one will believe them because all the good numbers have been revised down.
The Fed needs to cut and they know it. I’m not too worried about inflation because the economy is falling off a cliff. Hard to see rates making that big of a difference until they get back to zero. They will because the US economy has been built on 0% rates.
Shux, looks like the Chinese decided to join us for breakfast
$2500 in the rear view mirror this morning. Silver up near 2%. This is unexpected. No big move in the dollar, although tilting downward. SM trying to bounce back some this morning without much success and is flat.
Bitcoin down 2% (huh?) Oil up a little but below $70. Rates flat. PM shares firm but not crazy up.
It’s very early and there’s a lot of eco data this morning at 0830 EST. Hard to see that having too much of an impact, but you never know.
We didn’t capitalize on the move down in the dollar yesterday, so maybe this is make-up action. Regardless, looks good to me for now.
Maddog
BTW Maybe the same for Nivida. Someone put out a statement that they were getting subpoenaed by the DOJ for antitrust issues. They were leading the tech stocks as far as I know. They wondered who would do that to them. Cost of doing business in the states with this administration. Something going on with Google too. It’s like someone is attacking the tech leaders.
Madog
Yes I’m aware of him and his micromanaging dictatorial ideations that were so out there that even the demos didn’t give him enough votes for him to run when he probably thought if Trump could run for president so could he and might now have a personal grudge against him imo. It looks like he sent out his flying monkeys for mischievous political monkey business.
I wonder who was behind Reuters? Maybe they can sue them for a tort that interfered with their business putting out false statements that resulted in a financial damage. They may not be able to prove they did that to influence the election and as they would say interfering with ” democracy” but that it caused them a financial loss.

Re Bloomberg
Bloomberg himself is a hopeless globalist/Davos freak….and all the major news aggregators, like Reuters and AP are also captured……though what Reuters did to Oil this week is almost a new low, when they put out those false reports about Opec increasing production this year……
Ps
I don’t know if you noticed but there’s people wall street that are suddenly starting to politicize the SM, particularly Bloomberg News that’s not fooling me anyways with their little comments that are leftist leaning towards comrade Harris who’s about as economic as a post Turtle. Whom ever it benefits, China, India, oil countries, it won’t be us. I don’t know if they can put any pressure on the Fed or not.
Buygold
Dollar is pausing because ” this isn’t a game IMO” with the consequences anyways due to inflation.. just saying. Apparently there’s betting going on about the Fed not only lowering interest rates but even bigger than people are expecting. I’m going to LAMO if there is no rate change.
Reason for the dollar down today
The dollar dumped a bit yesterday, looks like the “JOLTS” job offerings missed by a country mile this am – by over 400K.
Couldn’t figure out what the deal was with the dollar all of a sudden, rates fell too by another 8 bips.
Oil closed at $69.25, first time under $70 in a while. Regardless of what they say, this world is awash in oil. If Trump wins, our production will force prices much lower.
Jobs report on Friday. Always a fun time. 🙂
FWIW…

Giving us the SM treatment
easy for them to tie us to the SM regardless of the dollar. There’s absolutely no buying (or selling) coming in. So weird to me. Really thought we’d see an uptick this week. Just a trickle. No volume in the QQQ’s either.
It’s like the markets are on autopilot, not even real.
Maddog – re: Tusk. It’s a shame that we have these elites that are just pure evil. It’s also a shame that they have enough control of people in governments willing to carry out their plans. What if everyone just said “no”? Not going to war, not doing your regulations, etc., etc. Almost as if there’s a spell over the masses.
Maddog
LOL I hope so! I hope he has nightmares about being buried in an underground room with devils visiting and stabbing him with pitchforks. There is no hell painful enough for him!
ipso facto
Re RFK Jr
I bet he is the last thing Fauci thinks about at night and the first, when he wakes up…..
They put chains on the big three
NEM, GOLD, AEM. GFI not helping either.
They look to keep the HUI pinned. Actually the shares in general aren’t saying much about direction.
Still no volume.
Dollar taking a header
Wondering if that little counter-trend rally has about run its course.
My gut says this Yen unwind has a ways to go.
Scum going to have to keep the pressure up on pm’s for awhile I think.
