I agree … anyone who is still invested in a gold or silver ETF (Sprott excepted) has their head up their ###!

When in a hole yr supposed to stop digging…..anyone following this and still in a normal ETF is insane…..u can’t leave customers hanging like this.
That said Germany has a bad habit of cowboy operations….most of the worst bucketshops in Europe are invariably in Germany….I heard of one that operated in the basement of a brothel !!!!!!!
After the punters had finished upstairs, they could go downstairs to really get screwed !!!!!!!
Thats even worse than”We got caught short ” What that means is we intentionally set out to SCREW you rather than we miscalculated ! They dont deserve any good will after saying that ! CRUSH them until they get some Humility ! SHRINK their assets,force the Sale of ASSETS FIRE the CEO and FILE CRIMINAL charges against him until the management gets a dose of HUMILITY instead of arrogance !
Looks like we’ve made it through the first half hour in decent shape.
Why are yields on the 10 yr bonds rising with a Sept. rate hike now off the table?
Very little makes sense anymore

I’m sure that most of those ETF investors didn’t realize they were investing in bits of paper …

TORONTO, Sept 1 (Reuters) – Barrick Gold Corp, the world’s largest gold miner, said Thursday it has brought back a former executive to advance a scaled-back development plan for its suspended Pascua-Lama project that will first focus on Argentina.
The gold and silver project, which straddles the border of Argentina and Chile in the Andes Mountains, was put on hold in 2013 due to environmental issues, political opposition, labor unrest and development costs that ballooned to $8.5 billion.
George Bee, who has 16 years experience at Barrick and was most recently Chief Executive at Jaguar Mining, will work on a modest ‘starter’ option for a phased development plan, the company said.
Gold miners are increasingly doing “bite-sized” developments that carry less risk of budget disasters and fewer of the political and environmental disputes that have derailed mega-mines in recent years.
Recent evaluation work indicates that a scalable underground mine plan at Lama may be the best option for a phased approach, Barrick said.

Looks like the writing may be on the wall. I expect them to either drip sell pm’s all day or try to create a waterfall right before the SM opens.
PM’s cannot be seen as a viable alternative on economic weakness
USD ripping higher now. As long as the SM is up it’s all good.
I lie….Scum just rammed it 100 pts plus…new hi for day and now slamming PM’s…
I dunno? We get a straight up lift off, but then seem to have trouble igniting those second stage booster rockets. You have been around awhile, remember those 30,40, even 50 dollar up days?
We just might have to have patience until the Equisetum Spring ?
Nice. Berry pizza. Who would have thought?
Not sure I trust this little pre-market pm bounce, I guess we’ll see.

She called this Pizza. I didnt have the heart to tell her any different. 🙂 Resembles dessert more than pizza. Maybe if you put a dab of ice cream on top ?
Those folks eat some strange stuff out there in California. I still aint got up the nerve to try something called Tofu. Maybe if they called it Pizza…?
So, the Fed produced the weak jobs report they needed not to hike rates.
PM’s looking good so far, SM ripping as usual.
Pass the popcorn
Dealers and Pimps left hanging in the Hamptons…..
this morning. Lol ! Hey, speaking of frogs, I wonder how ole Treefrog is faring this morning. Have not heard a KneeDeep or peep out of him since the hurricane rolled over Treefrog Manor. News says a lot of folks are out of power over that way. Guess we will have to just wait and see if he comes up for air ?

Note to Admin: This picture is a gif and the frog should be spitting water. Am I doing something wrong here or are gifs not welcome at the Oasis. TIA
You dont have to shout it so loud. Oh, I guess your trying to shout over the hurricane. Well anyways, thanks for the coffee. Got my rain slicker and boots on but so far just some rain and wind. And much cooler temperatures this morning. Hallelujah ! Why the Good Lord invented the month of August is beyond me ! Not much good ever comes of it for man, beast, or gold. But we made it through. Im getting pretty good at just making it through.
Speaking of making it through, I hope you are practicing that fine art this morning. Im just standing off to the side watching you do the Texas Two Step this morning. One down, one more to go, hang in there. We will keep an eye on gold and silver, you keep an eye on that hurricane. You ever wonder why they name hurricanes after a woman? Cause they love to dance!

Looks like fine print allows paper settlement…everyone is now gonna read their ETF prospectus and see the same or worse….panic can’t be far off.
Also Zero have this as Top item 2nd day……
