“Still pretty depressing that war always seems inevitable.”

Geez how many wars are going on? Plus terrorism. Plenty of bucks for the “Merchants of Death.”

To be expected I guess. Maybe it’s not that big a deal and ZH blew it up.

Oil isn’t doing much and neither is gold. Markets always seem to know.

Still pretty depressing that war always seems inevitable.

Iranian forces in Syria shell Israeli army bases on Golan: Israel

JERUSALEM/BEIRUT (Reuters) – Iranian forces in Syria shelled Israeli army outposts on Thursday but caused no casualties, the Israeli military said, and the Syrian military was later quoted as saying its air defenses had confronted Israeli rocket fire on its territory.

Sounds like a bigger deal on ZH. But maybe they have more current info.

Ain’t that just peachy.

Gold and Oil yawn…

All else fails you can get charcoal at fish aquarium stores and cotton anywhere.

But acid rain can contaminate household water supplies by leaching metals from building and plumbing materials, the USGS says.
That includes rooftop rainwater-catchment systems that Hawaii residents use for drinking water.

“In 1988, the drinking water of nearly 40% of homes using such systems in the Kona Districts of the island was found to be contaminated with lead leached by acid rain,” the USGS says. “Tests confirmed that the blood of some residents of these homes had elevated lead levels.”
Businger told Hawaii News Now that acid rain is not an immediate health hazard, adding that it’s “the least of their (residents) worries.”

Notice how the phyzz has bounced back about the same time of last year so far but the stocks haven’t as far. Ps (2016) too.

I’m sure that there’s monetary warfare being conducted on Iran although it takes a lot of government fiddling to get the inflation rate up to 75%. Yikes!

small profit today thanks to WPM, PVG and MUX..

SM’s up @ 1 % or more, Dollar reversals stopped dead and the PM’s in no wheresville.

Later the tooth fairy will tuck you all up tonight.

I have less than zero admiration for the Mad Mullahs in Iran…but ain’t it strange that the Rial falls apart right on cue, the Ruble is as also regularly wacked.

The Rig has more than one use it seems.

That damn near every break out fails, tells much about the Rig.

We’ll probably be left alone tdy, as their beloved SM is flying…because it is Wednesday.

Oh oh !!! spoke too soon..scum tapping us down into the close.

Lol That can depend on cycles or what direction it’s going. Exactly why I don’t like the buy and hold except maybe core as some hold or few positions just to remind you when they do lol in a downtrend. People tend to get carried away in a uptrend and think it will never end till it does. Commodities are to fickle to do that. Then they sell in the downtrend and think they’re purposely getting washed out sometimes then it starts again. But in a down trend it may not even recoupe your loses in a bounce depending. So people wind up holding their life away. Again why I don’t like buy and hold with commodities,
Then again even the general market every so many years if your not watching they’ll take back your gains.
Anyways in a down trend any bounce won’t last and you can’t afford less you have a fast platform and then go short and the headache to day trade. People get nervous after a fall and as I predict ideas back then it was gonna be a slow take down and it was more than slow and painful. Right now it’s holding which is amazing in itself.

The Grim Reaper has taken his scythe to the Iranian rial (see chart below). The Islamic Republic of Iran remains in the ever-tightening grip of an economic death spiral. The economy is ever-vulnerable because of problems created by the last Shah, and added to massively by the theocratic regime. Indeed, the economy is more vulnerable to both internal and external shocks than ever. That vulnerability will become more apparent in the face of President Trump’s tearing up of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and the laying on of more primary and secondary sanctions against Iran.

How fast the death spiral will spin is anyone’s guess.

I guess TA is relevant to finding the breakouts, because pretty much every breakout fails.

I’ve never seen anything flat line as long as the pm shares have for the last couple of years.

I’m seeing another side of you lately lol
But that life yah know may be fun for a minute but it’s like a flame that burns bright but then out just as quickly.

TA, IMO is the only thing relevant in the PMs amongst all the noise less we have indept knowledge how money moves and manipulation. To a point anyways because now you got to wait for verification OR be quick on the button ESP with futures which influence it cuz they’ll play games in driving it up only to sell it when they do. It looks like consolidation mode so verification is important right now which way it will go.

I’m glad and hope it keeps up. Calif conservatives are outnumbered by the liberal brain dead. Watched part of the Gov debate and all the Demos want more of what Brown was doing. I liked both the repubs but a demo is up in the polls. Some people don’t like or even hate Brown but don’t even want to look anymore at what’s going on feeling over whelmed I guess may not even vote. More exodus to come. Just more mismanagement, more taxes ” always their answer to mismanagement,” open borders and empty promises with the rest. Then we got these immigrants or children of immigrants running who can’t tell the difference between legal and illegal immigration that will not assimilate and put American citizens first but want to represent them. Demos attitudes is over crowding brings them money at the expense to quality of life and the middle class. It will have to just crash and burn but then it will probably be too late and be a over crowded poverty ridden hell hole these politicians think is normal with more kids turning to drugs and crime they’ll never climb out of.
We can just hope there is enough silent majority but with no voter ID I doubt it.
Since they will be moving out to other states they need to stay red now.
