Too Late To Buy Gold? Not Even Close…

In short, the Fed is Trapped. Cornered. Out of good options… Period.

 

This caught my eye:

“In short, silver, despite its steady movements North, is still greatly lagging the gold moves of late, suggesting that gold has yet to make its true move in price, role and use.

Today silver lags, but when it moves, its move will be explosive.”

Why is the Dollar falling…..the Dollar was sold by the Globlalists, to make Trump and his action look a failure…..which created bearish momentum and then the Algo’s took over….

I agree it makes no real sense….but it seems once the Algo’s get up a head of steam, it takes an awful lot to change them.

I don’t really know, the correlation has always been rates. Maybe the market smells lower rates. It should be inflationary but at the moment our economy is slowing as well as inflation. The other thing is that the rest of the world is way ahead of us in terms of lowering and the dollar has been strong against their currencies for a long time. It might just be unwinding some. I think the dollar index is around par. We forget back in the early 2000’s it got down to .77, so we have a way to fall.

Agree, it’s bullish for the SM.

Buygold, congratulations.

Posted by ferrett @ 6:08 on July 1, 2025  

My wonder is why is the USD falling? If it is because the market expects the Fed to cave, then I guess that ties in with a higher SM, but lower bond rates? Because a lower dollar is inflationary. Lower rates are inflationary. The market can’t be expecting deflation, because the USD would rise, even with falling rates. Or are there shenanigans going on in the UST? People keep saying, with a lot of truth, that the bond market is so big that it’s difficult to manipulate but its smaller than the FOREX.

Thanks Maya

In as much as it is up to me, I will certainly try. 🙂

Following through?

Posted by Buygold @ 5:04 on July 1, 2025  

Looks that way early on. Gold up 1%. Silver up .62% but had been up more earlier. The dollar and rates are down slightly. Most everything else is flat. Oil, Bitcoin, SM.

Looks like if we fail, silver will be the culprit, but it is nice to see gold back above $3300 and silver $36.

PM shares are firm in the premarket.

There’s some PMI and ISM manufacturing data this am, but I doubt they’ll matter much.

They shook the tree pretty hard last week but especially Friday. It’s good to see us bounce back.

In Oz each state was different. In Qld our Chief Medical Officer (who never completed her medical education, is a career medical bureaucrat and is married to a guy who worked for Pfizer) was the one mandating the lockdowns and mask wearing. She banned the prescription of ivermectin and hydroychloroquine for treating Covid. And when the vaccines came along she was the one pushing for employers to mandate the vaccine, and of course encouraging everyone else to take it anyway “for grandma” without any regard for informed consent, safety record as per the clinical trials when performed or the efficacy. Naturally when the panic was over she was promoted to Governor of Queensland, a largely symbolic post for which absolutely no qualifications are required. So she is perfect for the position.

The expert deliberately withheld the cures, deliberately encouraged people to take actions and chemicals which, as the expert, she must have known were all wrong, and gets a well paid highly perked job as a reward. And Qld was one of the best states!! And the sheeple, conditioned as you say, went along with it.

The undersea cables here will have to lay on the ocean floor.  The problem is that the floor between the Big Island and Maui goes down in excess of 13,000 feet to mid ocean floor. There are no reefs or continental shelf shallow areas.  The electric company spent decades and millions to invent high voltage cables that could withstand that pressure without leakage.  They were not successful and may have given up by now.

That’s one thing I was surprised ” kind of”  about during COVID. Their tactics were what you could call conditioning. But using unethical, harmful and cruel tactics to get a desired response in this case based on BS  unconstitutional blanket  conformity while at the same time encouraged others to abuse people like police physically abusing or arresting people we saw in Canada and Australia or forcing them to take a unknown substance or lose their job even influencing the perhaps deranged ones with abusive tendencies and Karen’s to turn on their community. That neither the medical associations, or psychology associations who had to know what they were doing and never called them out or stopped them.

Ha! A new article just popped up on ZH.

Posted by ferrett @ 23:18 on June 30, 2025  

I don’t share my opinions because I “get away with it”—I don’t get away with anything. I’ve paid socially, professionally, and even financially. But I do it anyway because the alternative is spiritual death. The alternative is becoming someone who messages critics privately but never takes a public stand, someone who’s perpetually annoyed by others’ courage but never exercises their own.

The difference isn’t ability or privilege. It’s willingness. I’m open-minded and open-hearted. I can be convinced of anything—but show me, don’t tell me. I’m willing to be wrong, willing to change my mind when new information comes to light or I gain a different perspective on an idea, willing to defend ideas I believe in even when it’s uncomfortable.

There are a lot of us right now realizing that something isn’t right—that we’ve been lied to about everything. We’re trying to make sense of what we’re seeing, asking uncomfortable questions, connecting dots that don’t want to be connected. When we call that out, the last thing we need is people who haven’t done the work standing in our way, carrying water for the establishment forces that are manipulating them.

Most people could do the same thing if they chose to—they just don’t choose to because they’ve been trained to see conviction as dangerous and conformity as safe.”

This leads to bleakness. No matter how much money you have. You aren’t supposed to be allowed to be you, and you realise the forces pitted against you are vast and insidious. It seems easier to keep your head down and go along with the crowd, to let your personality be subsumed into the matrix.

Mr.C, thanks for that.

But as CGPT just takes a distillation of opinions from the internet I think that’s what would be expected after the first pass. Maybe a question about misallocation of capital, and GDP spent on projects that add nothing to the economy apart from debt might show something.

But even if the GDP was a real thing, and there’s nobody in extreme poverty (just poverty), even the middle class can experience bleakness from the constant control. The one child policy. Social credit score. Lockdown++ during covid. Forced relocations. And bleakness from things not working properly, or having to compromise your principles to keep your job, not being able to practice your religion without risk of arrest and disappearing, stifling bureaucracy and so on.

The Romans as far as I know haven’t been surpassed in building skills and long lasting buildings.  They also built them to withstand earthquakes..At what scale of quakes  I don’t know. Japan has been working on that for a long while. That big quake few years back their larger newer buildings survived a 9.

The Romans repurposed volcanic ash and lime for strength.

Yes, many Roman concrete buildings have withstood earthquakes for centuries, showcasing the material’s resilience. The Pantheon, for example, is a testament to Roman seismic-resistant construction. Roman concrete’s ability to withstand earthquakes is partly attributed to its unique composition and the way it was used, including incorporating volcanic ash and lime, which allowed for flexibility and self-healing properties. 

Here’s why Roman concrete was so effective:
  • Volcanic Ash and Lime:
    The Romans combined volcanic ash (pozzolana) with lime and water to create a strong, durable concrete. This mixture, particularly when hot-mixed, allowed for the formation of unique mineral compounds that contributed to the concrete’s self-healing capabilities and overall strength. 

  • Lime Clasts:
    The presence of lime clasts (tiny minerals from lime) within the concrete further enhanced its ability to self-heal cracks, making it more resilient to seismic activity. 

  • Flexibility and Discontinuities:
    Roman construction techniques, such as incorporating arches, vaults, and brickwork within concrete structures, created intentional discontinuities that allowed for slight movements and stress redistribution during earthquakes. This flexibility helped the buildings withstand shaking without catastrophic failure. 

  • Structural Design:
    The Romans understood the importance of structural design in resisting earthquakes. The Pantheon’s thick walls and dome, for example, were designed to distribute weight and resist stress, contributing to its survival. 

  • Long-Term Durability:
    Roman concrete’s ability to harden and become stronger over time, even underwater, contributed to its longevity and resistance to the erosional forces of weather and earthquakes. 

 

 

I asked ChatGPT. Did Chinese living standards rise after 1980 when the USA moved manufacturing over there

Posted by Mr.Copper @ 21:00 on June 30, 2025  

Yes, Chinese living standards rose significantly after 1980, and the shift of manufacturing from the U.S. and other Western countries to China played a major role in that transformation—though it wasn’t the only factor.

Here’s a clearer breakdown:


📈 1. Economic Reforms Started It

  • In 1978, China (under Deng Xiaoping) began economic reforms—moving from a strict command economy to a “socialist market economy.”

  • These reforms:

    • Opened China to foreign investment

    • Decentralized economic decision-making

    • Created Special Economic Zones (SEZs), like Shenzhen, which welcomed foreign companies


🏭 2. U.S. and Global Companies Moved Manufacturing

  • In the 1980s–1990s, U.S. companies began offshoring manufacturing to China due to:

    • Low labor costs

    • Expanding infrastructure (ports, roads, factories)

    • China’s policy of attracting foreign direct investment

  • This move created tens of millions of industrial jobs.


📊 3. Impact on Living Standards

  • Poverty Rate: In 1981, over 88% of Chinese lived in extreme poverty. By 2010, that fell to under 15%, and by 2020, China declared extreme poverty eliminated.

  • GDP per capita (adjusted for inflation):

    • 1980: ~$300

    • 2024: ~$13,000 (World Bank estimate)

  • Urbanization: Hundreds of millions moved from rural areas to cities, where jobs were more plentiful.

  • Access to Education and Healthcare: Both improved dramatically due to higher government revenues and rising household incomes.


🧩 4. Other Factors Beyond U.S. Manufacturing

  • China’s own policies (education, infrastructure, planning)

  • Trade with Europe, Japan, ASEAN—not just the U.S.

  • Internal migration and domestic entrepreneurship


✅ Conclusion

Yes, U.S. manufacturing moving to China contributed significantly to rising Chinese living standards—but it was part of a larger economic transformation led by Chinese policy reforms and global trade integration.

Let me know if you want charts or sources for these data.

Mr.C 12:52, I think she’s right.

Posted by ferrett @ 18:13 on June 30, 2025  

China did not have a decades run of real growth. It appeared that way, sure, as every year China achieved its forecast 5% increase in GDP exactly on target. Not 5.05%, not 4.95%, but 5.00%, a magnificent endorsement of centralised government planning. Then in the noughties the truth started to out, initially with 64m empty apartments (based on electricity non-usage) in 2005? 07? followed soon by the ghost cities, dozens of them, which would have been serviced by ghost infrastructure and created by shadow debt. And sold as investment properties, because property never drops in value. And GDP continued to increase.

Concrete has a limited life, nowadays, because it is reinforced with steel bars so that you can use it in a state of tension. The Romans didn’t use steel, they designed their buildings (see the Pantheon for an example) so that all the concrete members were permanently in compression and didn’t have any members in tension (or they would have fallen apart immediately), but steel rusts, and as it rusts it expands and cracks the concrete, and becomes weaker because there is less metal, and less concrete. The quality of the reinforced concrete determines the rust resistance: quality meaning not just the quality of the mix and the steel, but how well it is poured. In a corrupt environment such as Chinese local government, short term obsolescence is built in. Hence the viaduct collapse at the beginning of the clip. Which is good for GDP, of course.

And the Cap’n is right, because you have the same problem in America, only delayed by a few decades because you used better quality materials and methods. The collapse is built into the system. You have all these high rises, dams, bridges, tunnels, airports, roads, sewers, power grids which are deteriorating. Try looking in the carparks of office or residential blocks over forty years old, and see if you can see concrete repairs at the bases of the pillars. They are only plastering over the rusty reo, there is no replacing the lost strength. There are many trillions of infrastructure replacement costs coming down the line at you, and no budget for it.

As Hooky says, the system is bankrupt. And infrastructure is only a part of it. Health care, bankrupt both morally and financially. Manufacturing, shredded and not coming back despite the tariffs – some of the deals being made are simply relocating the offshoring, e.g. China to India or Vietnam. Debt, debt and more debt. Bureaucracy, that great enabler of collapse, is receiving a bit of a setback in selected areas like EPA, Green New Deal, wokeness; but the underlying trend is more and more regulations.

All the failed promises of the CCP are coming home to roost. No prosperity, no permanent rise in house prices, no jobs, compulsory scrapping of perfectly good EV’s so you have to buy a new one, ditto white goods, gotta keep the factories running, keep the hierarchy happy with good figures …. bleak? Yeah, I think so. I’m impressed that they’ve got the mental and emotional energy to protest. Many of the youth are just lying flat, and why not? When you can’t see any hope of the light at the end of the tunnel being turned back on, and your every action is tracked.

Fight back, Cap’n? When, as you say, it’s already gone? Futile, I think, and it only makes yourself a target. Prepare, though, as you say, prepare by organising locally so when supply chains collapse you still have food. Learn skills. Keep a low profile. Educate your kids and grandkids, for all this too will pass and they need to be ready to rise like phoenixes.

Is Carney controlling the borders and representing the people and Canadian culture like minded people were once draw to that would assimilate or is it s globalist they don’t seem to understand anyways or they would already have multi imports and exports, vs allies or trading priority  What Americans might be watching is dollar numbers and circumstances charges and overcharges including all the middle man. Sending anything to Canada is ridiculous. Middle men want their cut. How much is it worth so they can tax you for it.  Like how much is he charging the new buyers compared to America.

That’s great news. Yes exercise and cardio is good for many reasons. It’s also there things you did including now focused on exercise, diet and supplements to keep up your immune system to keep it away now.   You health and diet decisions and frame of mind had a lot to do with it and helping the doctors and treatments to work together.

I looked this up but might not include avoiding too much stress that includes constant doom and gloomers and advice they themselves wouldn’t take and notice most of them are old not young and drain positive energy and getting enough sleep. We have connections to the elders but that was then, they were different some good some bad. I remember elders telling me to be careful with elders because they will drain your energy. I didn’t quite understand because compared to today’s ready made easier life they seemed to have a lot of energy. Learned later it’s more psychological which then can cause physiological hormone changes that can be negative and affect outlooks negatively and depends on the person.

I looked this up not to drag things out in detail.

Prevent cancer through several mechanisms, including maintaining a healthy weight, regulating hormones, and boosting the immune system. Regular physical activity is associated with a reduced risk of developing various cancers, such as breast, colon, endometrial, and esophageal cancers. 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
  • Weight Management:

    Excess weight, particularly obesity, is a known risk factor for many cancers. Exercise helps control weight, reducing the risk associated with obesity. 

  • Hormone Regulation:

    Exercise can help regulate hormones like estrogen and insulin, which, when elevated, can promote cancer cell growth. 

  • Immune System Boost:

    Regular physical activity strengthens the immune system, enabling it to better identify and eliminate abnormal cells, including cancer cells. 

  • Reduced Inflammation:

    Exercise can reduce chronic inflammation, which can damage tissues and increase the risk of cancer development. 

  • Improved Digestion:

    Exercise can help food pass through the digestive system more quickly, potentially reducing the exposure of the colon to harmful substances. 

  • Overall Health Benefits:

    Exercise improves cardiovascular health, reduces fatigue, and enhances overall well-being, all of which can indirectly contribute to cancer prevention. 

While the exact mechanisms are still being researched, studies consistently show a link between physical activity and reduced cancer risk. For example, the American Cancer Society has found that exercise is linked to lower risk for 13 different types of cancer.

I hope Carney turns out to be the guy you’re looking for. It is certainly a good thing for Canada to find other trading partners and increase exports.

I view him similar to the Captain, as the same as the EU and UK elites. So I guess if you like what you see going on over there then he’s the guy.
