I imagine the US and allies are trying to figure out how to respond. If I was in a Syrian family and we had to leave our village on account of war I’d sure appreciate being somewhere that is not being bombed!

Totally agree about the potential for accidents. Just don’t understand why the US/UK aren’t protesting the Russian/Turkey/Iranian deal.
I guess they either quietly agree, OR they are setting up for a false flag type incident.
Both your stories – including Puerto Rico are big news IMHO

Returned back from the late lunch with minutes to spare and able to grab some JNUG.
Just hope the trail signs I’m seeing, PM Stocks Green today, PM’s holding their own, and now the Cot report are not leading into another ambush next week. Lets hope for a good outcome.
How many down days in a row for SLV now? 15 or such? I think its time from some kind of bump up.
Well, got the weekend to worry about if I made the right move. Monday will be here soon enough.
Have a great weekend !
Ps) The steak came in the form of a steak burrito as we decided to go Mex on Cinco de Maya. LOL

Macron’s French presidential campaign emails leaked online
“Leading French presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron’s campaign said on Friday it had been the target of a “massive” computer hack that dumped its campaign emails online 1-1/2 days before voters choose between the centrist and his far-right rival Marine Le Pen.
Macron, who extended his lead in the polls over Le Pen on Friday, is seen as the frontrunner in an election billed as the most important in France in decades.
Some nine gigabytes of data were posted by a user called EMLEAKS to Pastebin, a document-sharing site that allows anonymous posting. It was not immediately clear who was responsible for posting the data or if any of it was genuine.”

Lots of opportunities for “accidents” with this development. I don’t want to see Russians and Americans shooting at each other.
Nobody wanted to talk to the US?

Ipso – wow another good catch on the Syrian airspace. Now, why aren’t we vehemently opposed and contesting that decision? Food for thought, maybe Trump really is working with Putin behind the scenes?
Farmboy – tend to agree with your assessment, JNUG might be OK. A lot of crap going on and it’s hard to believe we just blow off the Puerto Rican default as if it’s nothing. Maybe the fallout comes next week? Then there’s the French elections, who the hell ever knows what the French will do? Macron is clearly the NWO Luciferian candidate, scary Obama clown. Will be interesting.
USD closing at the lows of the day. Someone tell me why.

US and British military planes could be banned from flying over ‘safe zones’ in Syria from tomorrow under Russian plan
Russia penned deal signed by Turkey and Iran for four ‘safe zones’ in Syria
Kremlin spokesman said that all warplanes will be barred from flying over them, but ‘especially the forces of the international coalition’
Russia has already stopped bombing zones under pact which will come into force from tomorrow, spokesman added
Nations have not yet outlined who will be in charge of enforcing the zones
Aim is to allow refugees to return to their home country and for aid to be sent in

Pretty much seen what I needed to see today. The Crimex boys stepping in for a last minute tap on the head to Gold and Silver. Bless their little stone cold hearts. The PM stocks are impressive today, up with Gold and Silver da nada. A very good sign as I take it.
Going to try and make it back for the close. Richard640, I am leaning to adding some JNUG before the weekend. Puerto Rico, some kind of ‘Flash Crash’ in oil last night, France, ….gut telling me to go long for Monday.
I think the tides of fortune are about to turn in our favor….??

I know you don’t think much of the company, and I listen to your thoughts. But I had to buy some several months back as I felt it was beaten down so badly. Time will tell, but today’s action was a bit promising.
Appreciate your looking into it today, Farmboy

Farmboy – a good flat position with your JDST hedges is working like you wanted, the added bonus is your upside on the recent buys of the individual names. Nice work.
R640 – you could have hit that speculation on the outcome of the French elections spot on. Like you said, going in pm’s are oversold so a Macron win might not hurt gold all that much and may in fact serve to rally the Euro vs. the USD. A LePen win might shake things up temporarily overnight but would likely cause the USD to rally.
So, as you say gold may be OK to hold regardless of the outcome.
Good catch.

Northern Dynasty: Pebble Partnership, EPA file Joint Motion to extend Stay of Proceedings
VANCOUVER , May 4, 2017 /CNW/ – Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX: NDM; NYSE MKT: NAK) (“Northern Dynasty” or the “Company”) announces that its wholly-owned US subsidiary, Alaska-based Pebble Limited Partnership (“Pebble Partnership” or “PLP”), and the US Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) have filed a Joint Motion in federal court to extend a stay of proceedings in the parties’ longstanding legal dispute over the federal agency’s pre-emptive regulatory action under Section 404(c) of the Clean Water Act to May 11, 2017.
The motion states: “The parties have identified a likely framework for settlement and request a short, one-week extension of the current stay to allow the parties the time necessary to finalize the agreement and obtain the required approvals.”
Pebble Partnership CEO Tom Collier : “A great deal of common ground has been established between the parties, including on the importance of upholding the rule of law when it comes to administering statutorily mandated processes under the Clean Water Act, the National Environmental Policy Act and other federal statutes. On that basis, we anticipate achieving a resolution to these matters next week.”

Back in 2013, markets tumbled (if briefly) on the news that Detroit would file for bankruptcy, at the time the biggest municipal bankruptcy in US history with over $18 billion in liabilities. Yesterday, algos barely even bothered to look up when Puerto Rico’s governor announced that the US Commonwealth would submit Title III (aka bankruptcy) protection, despite a debt load of more than $70 billion, or nearly four times greater than Detroit’s.
So does that mean that there are no losers or casualties (metaphorically speaking for now) from the bankruptcy filing? The answer is that in addition to the citizens of Puerto Rico of course, more than half of whom live in poverty and who are about to be crushed by even more austere financial conditions (that said, nobody ever complained when Puerto Rico was raking in the billions in debt), the biggest losers are a handful of hedge and mutual funds, all of whom were attracted by the island’s high yields forgetting that yields were high in the first place for a reason.
Time to buy old US gold coins
Here’s a list, courtesy of the WSJ:
- At the top of the pile are plain vanilla mutual funds, which held about $14 billion of Puerto Rico’s outstanding bonds as of March, according to Morningstar Inc. Two fund families, OppenheimerFunds and Franklin Templeton Investments, held most of the debt. About 7% of Franklin’s debt was insured as of mid-March, the WSJ calculates, which also means that 93% was not and will suffer impairments.
- General Obligation bondholders include: Aurelius Capital Management, Autonomy Capital and Monarch Alternative Capital LP,
- Sales tax revenue-backed (Cofinas) bondholders: Scoggin Capital Management, GoldenTree Asset Management, Merced Capital, Tilden Park and Whitebox Advisors have held Cofinas.
- Bonds insurers: roughly $12 billion of the island’s $70 billion in outstanding debt is insured. It will be up to the bond insurers to fill the gap when interest and maturity payments are missed. Insurers backed a wide swath of bonds from Puerto Rico, complicating the island’s ability to prioritize payments. Among the companies with the biggest exposure to Puerto Rico debt include Ambac Financial Group, National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation, Assured Guaranty Ltd. and Financial Guaranty Insurance Company

We’ve had 2 pops like this in the last 2 weeks–with G&S either down or up slightly–and these pops amounted to zilch…and were predictive of zilch….The FILTH are really determined to hold G&S down…Gold needs to confirm with at least a 10 or 15 buck rise on the day.

Incidentally, they weren’t spraying enough chemtrails because the burn I got on my forearms, neck and ears worst ever. 24C, partial clouds, covered golf cart, hat and sunglasses, I think there is an ozone hole opening up over the Okanagan.

I see buying JNUG before the weekend similar to buying a lotto ticket—in case Le Pen wins—if she does, then, like Trump, gold could jump $50 Sunday night and be gone by Monday morning…on the other hand, G&S have been down, what? 14 days in a row? And some RSI’s are 10 and 20—so a Le Pen win could be a catalyst for what would have happened soon…and gold could start a week or two bounce within a bear market. And if Le Pen loses?? I think G&S are pretty sold out–gold could dip $10 but would probably be quickly bought.

French Presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron was accused recently of tax evasion.
Macron denied the allegations.
Now, new documents prove he lied about – almost – everything.
Two days ago, an Anon on /pol/ (the 4Chan thread notorious for unmasking Antifa, among other things) uploaded proof of Macron’s tax evasion.

This guy is an ANTIFA FAR left PRO VIOLANCE ! Heaven help France !
What is Antifa? Controversial far-left group defends use of violence
William Steakin, AOL.com
May 4th 2017 4:00AM
During a May Day march this week in Portland, Oregon, violence erupted resulting in 25 arrests after Antifa protesters allegedly attacked police officers, emergency workers and destroyed property resulting in the city pulling the parade permit.
Similar chaos broke out during May Day protests in New York City on Monday when supporters of President Donald Trump and Antifas clashed at Union Square. Once things turned violent police reportedly organized a wall surrounding the pro-Trump group in an effort to separate them from other protesters.
SEE ALSO: Paris police officers set on fire by Molotov cocktail during May Day protest
In Paris on May Day Antifa members attacked police with improvised bombs, engulfing multiple officers in flames, according to reports. And as tensions mount between pro-Trump and Antifa groups in the states, some are wondering how long until the level of violence seen on the streets of Paris on Monday makes its way to the U.S.
But the use of violence isn’t new for the group known as Antifa, or anti-fascists. The far-left organization made headlines back in January during President Trump’s inauguration when an alleged Antifa devotée punched white nationalist Richard Spencer while he was being interviewed on camera. Video of the assault was quickly memed into oblivion.
