Silver Wheaton Changes Name to Wheaton Precious Metals

TSX: SLW
NYSE: SLW

VANCOUVER, May 10, 2017 /CNW/ – Silver Wheaton Corp. (“Silver Wheaton” or the “Company”) (TSX:SLW) (NYSE:SLW) is pleased to announce that it has filed Articles of Amendment to change its name to Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (“Wheaton Precious Metals”). Shareholders approved a special resolution to change the name at the Company’s Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held on May 10, 2017.

Dopey had a little bounce in May. Gold down thru May so far. I’m assuming we have a leg up now or soon.

So, I just bought a small 300 sh SBGL @ $8.22 to ladder up on if were back in gear.

Mkt/cap $1.8 bil, nice p/e 6.6, and a 5.4% ANN YIELD DIVIDEND, while you sit on it.

Just noticed as of 4/28, it has 6.9% short interest. That alone might help it higher if they cover those shorts on a rally.

would be three days running if so.

Anyone else getting the Microsoft password popup today when they come to the Oasis?

I forgot about that one. Used to own it many many years ago. Its the right mkt cap, $1.7 bil, Its even got a P/E, of 28, rated “B” by Schwab. I’m adding it to my watch list now. And three higher low points on chart.

This weasel Richard Pan parents came here as immigrants from China but apparently took their communistic imperialist mindset with them and pharma is taking advantage of this communist moron weaseling his way into politics. To him we don’t run the show they do.

SB18 Bill Will Allow Authorities To Enter Unvaccinated Kids Homes
California has passed the controversial SB18 bill, allowing state authorities to enter unvaccinated children’s homes in order to assess the child’s safety.

SB18 is a law that forces parents to adhere to and comply with the government’s definition of what is “appropriate” practice when it comes to raising children. Failure to comply with “appropriate” practises, including going against “evidence-based” medical recommendations, can put parents at risk of losing their children.

Healthimpactnews.comreports:

At first blush, the amendments’ defining details of SB18 — which is being pushed by Big Pharma whipping boy Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento) — appear altruistic in nature, utilizing language that attempts to swaddle political overreach in soothing terms like “child bill of rights.” However when taking a closer look, the amendments contain strangely redundant policy that seems to be seeking laws for innocuous rights that already exist, which begs the question, what is the real purpose for this legislation?

They can even tell you what job you can and can’t have based on what they consider acceptable with parenting. Those with long hour jobs including medical will be targeted by some snowflake safe space graduate I can see it now.

I’ll contact you next week. Too much going on. Tried the meds to stop smoking  and despite it being low dose and below normal lowest dose I can only imagine what Id be like if it was higher even lowest dose.low energy and want to sleep and shouldn’t of took it yet. Have a life support recert to do today. Have to drink bunch of coffee or tea and try to snap out of it Besides if Im still smoking won’t help anyway which I probably will. Low dose Pot would do better  not drug me and work just as good but can’t take it if still working. Funny I can take toxic drugs though. Pharmas got that wrapped up. Darn things are in capsules so not easily cut in half.

I have Miso soup keep on hand but you also have to think of Japenese seaweed being contaminated with radiation right now. It was one thing that helped save some of the Japenese from thyroid cancer from the fall out of the bomb during the atomic bomb because of the iodine in it. I told a Japenese friend to take it while undergoing radiation right now for her thymus which I wonder if she needs because no Cancer.

I don’t know if todays that day. You never know. We just have to wait until the “right” thing hits the news for a spark to light the fuse. Jan 2016 was like a reverse crash, straight up for 6 months.

But today I’m taking note of the highest percent gainers today, like AG SBGL USAS KGC SAND etc. NAK acting real crazy. Up 8% I think it was, and then I saw down 10%. Its a wild one.

It’s stacking season soon

Looking for a sign. Show me the money ! 🙂

Could not resist the 9% profit on today.

Made a few bucks in the trading account. Long as the miners don’t give up more than half of their gains from this morning, should end the day in the green.

Will let Yellen do her thing, and come back for the market close looking for some bargains.

Floridagold once told me, ” You never go broke taking profits.” I doubt he came up with that one on his own, but thought I would put it to the test anyways. 🙂 How many more months before I can gloat how bad the Dawgs beat his Gators? God I miss football !

Comment: Let me guess… he wanted more funds to investigate Hillary’s selling America’s Uranium to Russia ?

During the times when the Dinesletter was created, in the 1960s

owning gold was against the law. So he recommended buying the mining shares instead. In a sense, its the same today. TPTB does not want people owning Gold so they keep playing games with the price to PUNISH gold investors.

Even with all TPTB’s bashing, Gold is $1220/oz. Far above the pre 1971 price of $42, that’s a factor of 29. That’s 29 times $42 = today’s $1222.

After the de-peg dollar/gold, Gold rallied from about $42 in 1971 to over $800 in 1980, 1,800% gain low to high, thanks to massive money printing, debts, deficits, wars, and a loss of confidence in the US dollar.

The next major low versus the official $42 ($140 black market) was year 2000, at $276/oz. Gold low of $276 in 2000 should be 10 times more than that $276 today.

Seem to be slowly gaining ground over the past few days. HUI and XAU gaining ground.

Aint it amazing what I can build a case of ‘Hope’ on ? 🙂

“Cramer on Comey: If this were a constitutional crisis, ‘gold should be flying’

Richard, remember this TV show ? 🙂

Argentine authorities, industry players and unions are expected to sign this week a long awaited federal mining agreement that unifies existing legislation across the country, as part of an ongoing effort to jump-start investment in the sector.

The nation, once a favourite of mining investors, has fallen behind its neighbours Chile and Peru despite containing rich deposits of copper, gold, silver and zinc.

Until now, local regulations were not only tough, but also diverse, with seven of the country’s 23 provinces having a full ban on the use of cyanide over to environmental concerns.

Since taking office in late 2015, President Mauricio Macri has been adopting measures to revive the country’s mining industry. One of the first ones was eliminating a 5% tax on mining and energy companies in February last year.

He also revoked a prohibition on foreign mining companies sending profits made in Argentina out of the country

Farmboy – concur with R640, if these metals can’t get going then these shares will selloff for the rest of the day. Metals are on full blown lockdown.

Probably a prudent move holding off on more JNUG.

Definitely frustrating action in gold and silver. No life at all.

Moving deliberately and slowly at present. PM’s getting a break, and looking up,  not yet ready to commit to ‘Rally Mode’ just quite yet. Nice to see some green today. Must be Spring. Trump definitely in ‘Spring Cleaning’ mode. lol

And an interesting tidbit to yesterday’s firing of Comey, he was out of town in LA at the time. Can’t help but wonder if a security team was sent in, and the locks changed on the former Directors office door. ? And bet someone has been tasked with keeping a close eye on the Asst Dir. until he too receives his walking papers.

With Sessions and a new FBI Director, things should start to heat up in Washington shortly. Let the investigations begin ! What’s up first? The atrocities of the Clintons? Pizza Gate? Soros and his paid for ‘campaign’ interference? Such a long list to chose from. 🙂

Go Trump !

So, Asst. Director Andrew McCabe is filling in for Comey as acting Director. Doesn’t really get funnier than that.

McCabe himself should have been fired months ago for conflict of interest during Hillary’s email investigation, after the donations to his wife’s campaign were exposed.

Sure is a big swamp.

Shares are performing pretty well. If the metals can catch some wind maybe the HUI will take a run back toward 200.

Looks like the path of least resistance appears to be up for a change. We’ll see.

Yep. Let the first hour pass and see what happens. USD is hanging tough so no help on that front.

I expect the Fed speak will do what it always intends to do, confuse everyone with a bunch of contradictions – except for those who are already in the know.

Who knows what’s really going on behind the scenes with Russia and Syria? I’d just like to see peace break out.

Listened to Chucky Schumer for about five minutes. These Democraps are completely nuts.

holding both Jnug and Jdst in my ‘neutral’ position. Think by 10:30 ish we will have a better sense of PM direction and will probably go heavy one way or the other. And then there is the dreaded Fed speak this afternoon to deal with. One day, one hour, at a time. 🙂

I have no real opinion on the Syria strike. I was happy to see Trump keep a hands off on the Turkish/Russia Syrian thing. Both Turkey and Russia have a much greater security interest in what happens next for Syria. Maybe Trump’s input was simply, you guys set up some safe zones for the Syrian refugees, and then I will stand by and let ya’ll work out the problems in your back yard. ???
