In accordance with the Minsk agreement. Ukraine ignored the result and kept on murdering Russians; anywhere else in the world (except the West Bank or Gaza) this would be called ethnic cleansing. So there was Minsk II. No change. Therefore we got the war, or Special Operation or whatever, to enforce UN resolution 2202. Remember, Merkel stated on international TV that the Minsk agreements were never intended for anything other than to allow Ukraine to arm/re-arm and prepare for conflict. There was never any intention on the West’s part to implement what they required.
overton, 10:49, I’m surprised.
I would have thought a shareholder buying 15% of the float would have caused the SP to increase. Maybe if they sold their holdings tomorrow it wouldn’t decrease, who knows.
Investopedia? Why would they even look at Tether? You can’t ‘invest’ in it, it is a private company. It doesn’t, as they claim, have a market cap. of $189bn, that’s the value of their assets. Against which they have liabilities of $183bn. You don’t get a dividend or capital appreciation from holding a token. You use Tether to complete a purchase or sale much in the same way as you use a courier to deliver or receive a physical item that you’ve sold or purchased.
Maddog, 10:47, Zelenskyyyy might be insane, but it doesn’t make him an idiot.
Perhaps Z remembers this:
“You don’t have the cards, you gotta be more thankful, because you don’t have the cards, but we got the cards”.
Seems like Z has found a card ….

The borders around Ukraine and Russia, like in so many European countries have changed countless times…..one minute they are Russian, the next Ukranian….one thing that does stay constant,…count yr fingers when dealing with them.
Weird day
Talk about things not making sense.
Hey Goldie
Afternoon in these parts now. 😎
I don’t think Trump has control over Ukraine or nearly as much as we think he does. We are still funding and helping them as far as I know. I know the Senate threw more money at them in the BBB. I don’t think he has control of the CIA or certain parts of it. This Ukraine war is about more than we’re aware of IMHO. I also don’t think he’s totally free from the heavy hand of the Globalists.
I’ve heard it said that the whole world is just a stage. Seems right to me because a lot of things don’t make sense.

This war in Ukraine has technically surpassed 10 yrs because it’s over the same issues of the war in 2014 but didn’t have the EU part of NATO plan to be part of it then. It’s not just Zelenski keeping this war going. Trump should acknowledge that and threaten to wash his hands with it. That they have been sabotaging any attempts to end it all along. Both sides need to let that area around Donbas decide for themselves if they want to remain part of Ukraine or be annexed to Russia even if it means splitting that area up. Then certain conditions for security and safety of Russian Ukrainians and Ukranians and vise versa in.that area. Otherwise it’s never going to end and the ones living there should have a say in it.
Buygold that was a Ukrainian that told me years back about storing up the lumber before it went way up. He also mentioned before that when VCRs were in years back that you could buy a apartment with one. Economic troubles for decades. He’s A hard working family man who does multi types of jobs. My daughter who took him my tax forms early this year told her he’s half Russian and half Ukrainian. I can only imagine what he’s emotionally going through.
D’oh!

BREAKING: France’s fuel shortage is surging, with 16% of the country’s stations now out of petrol or diesel, one in six, up from 11% on Saturday, and 18% in Île-de-France around Paris, per government figures published this morning.
Looks like
we’re getting the ass-whoopin’ we should have got Thursday or Friday after a Fed meeting. Apparently, rates don’t matter today but the dollar up a miniscule amount does. Always sumptin’.
Look at Bitcoin and those QQQ’s go!!!

ferrett just an fyi , GROY’s share price hasn’t been rising because of tether purchases
https://www.stockwatch.com/Quote/Detail?U:GROY
————-
On the single shares tossed at the bid. The company can find out who is doing it. One of the companies that Groy bought was Abitibi Royaties and one the same single share game was going on and I sent a email to McEwens protege Ian Ball who was running Abitibi actually called me and I explained what was going on and he did a reverse split and the single share selling problem went away. GROY paid $25 a share for Abitibi and I kept a 1/3 of the shares. It was the most money I ever made on a PM shares. $200k
GROYS Agnico royalties will be paying for 30 years

maddog – spot on
in your evaluation of the EU in terms of their ability to even fight a war. It would seem to me they are trying to provoke an attack standing on the basis that NATO/U.S. will get involved. We are in no shape to take that effort on either, if most of Trumps advisors don’t want to open a front on the Houthi’s, pretty hard to imagine they want to take on Russia. I can’t imagine the Turks would be gung-ho either.
The alternative is nuclear. Merz, Macron, and Von der Leyen might just be stupid and desperate enough to do it.

BREAKING: The US has proposed extending its trade deal with China by 6 months ahead of President Xi’s visit to the US, per NYT.
Officials are also discussing setting up dialogue on AI and promoting trade in “non-sensitive goods” like energy and consumer products between the US and China.
China is reportedly pushing for an extension of the trade deal for even longer than 6 months.
US markets rise to a new high of day on the news.
ipso facto
Re Zelensky….and Trump is the one they say is an idiot/moron/cretin etc. !!!!
After the NY elected a Muslim
Immigration jihad.
There seems to be a roadblock in the peace process

@rob_vendetti
TRUMP SLAMS ZELENSKY, REBUKES EXTENDING THE WAR, AND REMAINS ONE OF THE FEW VOICES FOR PEACE
“We had a meeting with Zelensky today, and it didn’t go great, from his standpoint, I think he very much overplayed his hand.
I’m looking for peace, not a 10 year war, and playing games, we want peace! He’s looking to go on and fight, we’re looking to stop the death.
2000 people died last week. Some would say why do you care about Ukrainian and Russian soldiers, I care about them, we’re not doing that!
President Putin wants to end it, Zelensky wants to sign us up for 10 years, it’s not gonna happen.”
Can’t decide

BREAKING: Trump has called off US airstrikes on Yemen’s Houthis, reversing himself in a last minute decision after already deciding to carry them out on Sunday, with commanders having approved target lists and troops loading bombs onto US warplanes as the large-scale operation was just about to begin, per NYT.
Trump told advisers on Wednesday he did not favor strikes, ordered the Pentagon to prepare them after MBS urgently called him again on Thursday, then pulled back on Sunday, with most of his inner circle opposed to opening another front given the strain the Iran war has put on the US military. It is the third time MBS has asked Trump to strike the Houthis this month.

The EU cannot have a war with Russia until they re-arm and train up an Army and in Germany’s case that will take a decade at least, as of now they have no equipment worth talking about, vast amounts have been sent to then Ukraine and they have no real troops, airmen etc….
Plus they will have to conscript , as no-one will volunteer and a conscript army, will be NFU….and that can be said for the French and every other western country……which only makes all this war talk even madder……
But again our MSM is no where to be seen, as they should be openly accusing the Pols of being mad….

I haven’t read the press release yet. On Friday in the US Vista went out at $2.26. Those could be stale quotes I dunno?
Yes, nice to see more takeovers!
PS Looks like Vista opened up about 19%
Nice hit for Sitka
Sitka Gold Confirms High-Grade Gold Zone at Blackjack with 141.5 Metres of 1.93 g/t Gold, Including 80.6 Metres of 3.20 g/t Gold and 6.0 Metres of 9.46 g/t Gold, and Expands Near-Surface Mineralization Across 550 Metres Within the Blackjack Resource Pit

- Nice to see another “takeover” in the junior sector!
In the press release announcing the deal, it is stated that “the exchange ratio implies consideration of US $2.83 per Vista Gold common share…….and represents a premium of 29% based on the 20 day volume weighted average ….”
In the pre market, Vista Gold is only trading at $2.60…….
