Isn’t that strange since not much of that money seems to be benefiting us and certain people seem to be more worried about China and Taiwan than China and Taiwan.

For equities after downgrade but all commodities are up except Pal. Besides gold commodities isn’t a bad outlook for the economies. I wonder if institutional will be buying the dips.

At least some of these players are dying off now. Not that Biden was a big player but a puppet i heard from a nurse he has a Gleasonscore of 9 with the prostate cancer which are cells that can spread any where in his body.
These hubris type people think they can not only just plan things but think they can predict how we will react. That’s what is not going too well for them and likely never will. However we also need to hold them accountable which they may not expected either.
Bessent gaslighting again.
“So we’ve been trying to bring down the spending, and we are going to grow the revenue side. So we are going to grow the [gross domestic product] faster than the debt grows, and that will stabilize the debt-to-GDP [ratio],”
“So we’ve been trying to bring down the spending”: means we have failed to bring down spending, all the DOGE savings have been mopped up by more tax cuts and more spending on interest, military, and then some.
“and we are going to grow the revenue side.” Jus’ like that! Abracadabra …. revenue …. GROW! Even while we are increasing tax cuts
“So we are going to grow the [gross domestic product] faster than the debt grows” which, as we’ve just applied for an extra $4tn of debt in the Big Beautiful Bill means we are going to grow GDP by more than $4tn, or 13.7% – just to stand still on an irrelevant number:
“and that will stabilize the debt-to-GDP [ratio],” which is a magic flummery number which really means that debt is going to increase no matter what we do, which means that, all other revenues and expenses staying the same interest payments must go up, so next year we’ll need a greater increase in the debt ceiling (and thus a greater increase in GDP) simply to stand still and so on and on.
Because debt is already higher than GDP, stabilising the ratio simply means that in $$$ terms debt will continue to increase more than GDP $$$ increase. More debt, more USTs, more interest.
But, it’s much worse than that. Increasing GDP by $4tn only brings another 13.7% of revenue into the govt coffers, or $550bn in extra revenue. Bessent is pretending that turnover = profit. So all that magic wand stuff will not “stabilise the debt-to-GDP ratio” anyway. The debt will grow by $3.5tn.
This one slipped under my radar.

“The Code of Federal Regulations contains over 48,000 sections, stretching over 175,000 pages — far more than any citizen can possibly read, let alone fully understand. Worse, many carry potential criminal penalties for violations. The situation has become so dire that no one — likely including those charged with enforcing our criminal laws at the Department of Justice — knows how many separate criminal offenses are contained in the Code of Federal Regulations, with at least one source estimating hundreds of thousands of such crimes. Many of these regulatory crimes are “strict liability” offenses, meaning that citizens need not have a guilty mental state to be convicted of a crime.
This status quo is absurd and unjust. It allows the executive branch to write the law, in addition to executing it. That situation can lend itself to abuse and weaponization by providing Government officials tools to target unwitting individuals. It privileges large corporations, which can afford to hire expensive legal teams to navigate complex regulatory schemes and fence out new market entrants, over average Americans.”

I think the WEFers are slithering through behind the scenes … still buying influence … and will continue to do so as long as they are controlled by the central banks.
They are and are controlled by the international banking families.
Until central banks are neutered, they will continue in their ways.
The CBDC opp is the biggie.
If they are successful with forced implementation they will be like a parasite attached to your face like in the movie Alien for who knows how long.
From the Book of Revelation (one of John’s visions) – the mark of the beast will last 4.2 years.
I hope that rollout is as successful as the digital ID rollout.
It’s not going well.

Some good news from RFK Jr …

The possible reason they report it to moodies because the liabilities are not only our own like in Japan apparently that in Japan will cause stagflation. It says in the future money such as treasures could be pulled out for hard assets. Homes will get even more expensive as will gold. If there’s Fed bail outs even more inflation.
I have no idea why they haven’t. made SS hands off instead of using it like their slush fund and having the money coming in actively invested and managed including a good portion in gold and silver. It’s like they’re just standing there like a deer in the headlights watching the money flow out.
Also in the advent of corporatizing hospitals and doctors without oversight by Congress as well as pharma costs they just charge whatever they want. Instead of cutting care how bout cutting costs! Were being robbed. I heard that we are only 4 percent of the population but represent 75 percent of the revenue they’re getting. That’s insane and unsustainable.
Buygold 10:04, but it’s much worse.
They’re only talking about the budget deficit there. They aren’t including the unfunded liabilities of $75tn – $100tn over the next 75 years, which is entirely medicare and SS (i.e. not discretional) spending. To cover the costs of these programmes requires improving the current budget by $1.5tn p.a. either by added revenue or reduced spending. That means that in addition to the ~$2tn deficit for this year the government needs to find another $1.5tn just to stand still.
To put this in perspective, your revenues are $5tn, and your expenses are $7tn. You need to increase revenues by 70%, or decrease expenses by 50%, or a combo of the two. None of which are possible. There is no way out. Except:
Print baby, print. And hence the need for the $4tn increase in the debt ceiling.
Why it needs Moody’s to alert the bond market to that I don’t know.

- Have Davos elites been defeated? Is he asking us? Be nice if he could stay on track, not go on a long history lesson of the last million years. Like bait and switch. Turned into Ukraine, feud, WW11 all past tense said before and other stuff dragging on not getting a answer. Yes or no and why but guess using comparisons for cues and not sure. Why I’m posting it? Maybe there’s a clue I missed when I fell asleep waiting for him to come back to Davos. Kidding but not missing a cue. Seems more than a diversion.

Maya I don’t know if you’ll need this since you can walk so well and could move to jogging but it’s good exercise without having to have a big bike and In away a light leg press. A old saying, let your weaknesses become your strengths. Easier said then done sometimes.
It’s on Amazon for 30.00 There’s a bunch of different kinds so read the reviews below them.
Can’t sent the link for some reason so sending the name you can copy paste if you want one.

Moody’s downgrade
Shouldn’t hurt the gold market. Then again, it didn’t help us the last time we were downgraded in 2011 and Fitch did it in 2023. Although it is a bit different gold market these days. Might be why gold popped back above $3200 AH and the shares didn’t get smacked yesterday too much.

Yeah some parents can do that. The best they can do if they see their interests encourage them if realistic and safe. But even so sometimes kids can do it themselves. Wanna be like Mike who’s what 6 foot 10 or something, and their out there playing basketball everyday but only reach 5 foot ten and their dreams are crushed. Parents should have them focus on education too during that time plus any other interests. Focus on what they can do, kids are resilient just helps them if someone cares.
Still disappointments and failure can build character and can recover and learn from it. What they’re doing to them they can never recover.
It’s not just that going on either. Whites are this and that blacks are victims, both are emotionally abusive. Like where did they get their play book from Charles Manson?
Oh the worst ones are not the well meaning or alter ego it’s the can’t do ones are the worst. Say the kid loves soccer and the parents hates it. It’s not just winning that counts, they just love to play. Self centered type parent. Their A holes.

Try to warm up first and do stretch ones first. If there’s music you like put it on. Split them up in sets like sets of 5 each till you can do 10 each. You can take protein with exercise. I hope he gave you light weight bearing not too heavy at first. Reason is it helps strengthen the bones too. They have these pedal machines I found on Amazon. Portable without a bike and can exercise while sitting down in front of the computer. I got one for one of my grandsons because the doctors were going to rush and do surgery on his legs but after tests they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. I told my daughter in law I think I know what was wrong. He has independent study. He gets his work done fast then does interactive video games. Now he’s learning the stock market. Too much hours sitting . They can get clots that way too. Now he uses it when on the computer, problem solved. It has different resistance levels. There’s ones as low as in 30 dollars. Hope she passed that to the doctor as more and more are pulling kids out of public schools especially since Covid.
You don’t have to do them every day you can do them 3/4 days a week but maybe try to do stretching exercises when you get up. Muscles can start to atrophy pretty fast so if not active passive range of motion. Your walking well now and have years to go, you don’t have to turn into muscle man all at once. Lol
It’s not just the medical profession, goldie.
It’s the parents, telling their children from an early age that they can be anything they want to be. Whilst the parents might only mean they can be a rock star, olympic champion, fighter pilot, astronaut or whatever, which is patently complete rubbish and just setting the kids up to experience failure and confusion, it’s not a big step to “I can be a boy” especially when she’s surrounded by all the weirdos you mention.
You don’t build resilient kids with affirmative action and false hopes. Sure, let them dream, but keep them based in realism.
Goldi
Began the exercise sets my Physical Terrorist assigned me. Various leg lifts and stretches. I’m walking OK, but ye gads… some of these muscles I’m trying to move just don’t work yet! Old ‘hippies’ telling me to ‘be sure you do your PT!’ Yep… no pain, no gain. But it is amazingly exhausting. He sure knows how to target the weak points. (sigh!)
