Been watching Dolly Varden. They came out with some great drill results a month or two ago. Stock jumped to $.95 or so. Now back below $.70. Do you have an opinion on that one?

Do the juniors ever run?

Yes, all the shares should be doing much better, for sure. Everything was lined up for us a half hour ago. Dollar was down, rates down, SM coming back. Then the dollar turned back up.
It does seem to me the shares still need the SM to go higher. I honestly don’t know what will get the shares moving. We did better in the afternoon yesterday, maybe it will be the same today.

Sometimes I think that the juniors run with the nasdaq, maybe tied in with the availability of money.

Shares could be doing a lot better. I’m sure that BTC is hurting us. The “gambling” money has been going into the ether. Maybe never to return LOL

Let’s hope so. Silver struggling to get out of bed this am.

Today we have the age-old question. Can the shares rise in a down SM? Can the metals?

BTW, is it my imagination or does silver trade with tech?

EFP UPDATE and ALERT

EFP is being squeezed even higher today. The pressure is building and I am not just talking about price.

The leverage employed on these contracts, the carrying costs to obtain physical metal, and margin required to hold the short/hedge is hitting the red line.

Counterparty risk is growing, as players may be learning a valuable lesson that derivatives do not equal physical metal.

trying to lead the HUI higher.

Dollar in the way, rates coming back in a little though.

Hopefully silver can pick up some steam.

across the board, except for some anomaly in the Philly Fed which beat by 50 points. Retail sales and jobs missed. If they factored in inflation in the retail sales numbers, they would have been hideous.

Dollar coming back in a little but still higher. It’s 9 am and they haven’t shown up just yet. We’ll see

whatever they were. Gold up $15, leaving $2700 a little further behind. Silver struggling to hold the flatline.

SM not changed too much but seems to be slowly giving up early gains.

They are playing the usual spoofing game with GLD and SLV trying to create phantom selling.

Shares up a little but easy gains to crush in the first few minutes. Meh, looks the same as it always is to me.

Great Pacific Gold Announces High-Grade Gold Samples from Kesar’s East Vein Zone, Drilling to Commence

https://ceo.ca/@newsfile/great-pacific-gold-announces-high-grade-gold-samples

this is a simpleton tin foil hat response. The Cali fires were caused from flame spread, excessive fuel and building material interface errors in design and construction. This is what happens where you hire dummies who don’t understand eng-lish mang. Ask someone like me who designs homes daily, homes that reside in the Wildland Urban Interface. It’s a special firecode that is going to change the way people build forever. Denver lost over 1,000 homes to Wildfires 3 years ago. No directed energy weapons involved, It’s a weather event, dumb building and material interfaces, and choosing the wrong ventilation and rain screening detailing. Once hot embers are in attics and crawlspaces it’s OVER! Bye bye. So guess what, I no longer ventilate!!!! Nope, I temper my crawlspaces and attics to the exact same temperature as the living space. Please stay in your lane SNG.

Up a little in the overnights. Gold just above 2700 @ $2707. Silver trying to push back toward $31 after briefly punching above an hour ago or so.

Dollar up a little, but down against the Yen. 10 yr. up 2 bips.

SM mixed, with the DOW flat and the QQQ’s up .3% sort of drifting lower. Oil flat after pushing through $79. Bitcoin down 1% after popping above $100K again.

PM shares inching up, call it 1/2%

Eco data will probably be a factor for us. Retail Sales, Philly Fed, Weekly Jobs Report

Too early to know what the day will bring but seems like the shares are going to need to play catch-up or the metals will probably head back south. JMHO

“This is why I have gone almost entirely to phyz”

Key word – almost

Yeah, me too. Almost.

The Aussie Dollar often moves with PM’s or even in advance….

“If Maya doesn’t trust crypto, I ain’t touching it !”

LOL!  I made my 50-bagger.  At the start I had 110 BTC.  If I had held to present, I’d be a multi-millionaire!!  But no regrets.  I’d probably be dead of a stress heart attack, too.  At present, the cost of power to ‘mine’ a bitcoin costs more than the price of the BTC.  The ongoing blockchain network gobbles an obscene amount of electric power.  I don’t see it being practical in the long run.  It’s a ponzi that most cannot see.  If there is a power or internet crisis… it’s all vapor!
