@goldielocks re 19:00 affirmative action putting unqualified as preference over qualified

Posted by Mr.Copper @ 21:50 on June 15, 2018  

Yes, that’s an old one. Glad you brought the Wall Street Journal story to my attention.  Ever notice the media always tells us things that we all already know about? They used to call it “anti Darwinian, survival of the unfittest”. Favoritism and artificial support, or “investment” in the under dog rather than the upper dog. Emotionally nice but not practical.

Keep trying to remember that pretty much everything from the past that was not right, has to go into reverse. Little by little. Did you hear about the immigration qualifications? Getting tough on immigration, the definition of asylum. No more lottery based more like merit based starting. So don’t be surprised if we start hearing little things about “underdog” employees and underdog businesses being thrown under the bus.

Like I keep saying but nobody remembers…..”Those who were doing well will not do so well. Those who were NOT doing well will do better.” “Anybody or organizations that were “getting away” with unjust things, will get thrown under the bus.” No more Mr. Nice Guy is the future. Its going to take a long time, and a lot of complaining from the losers that used to be winners.

Trump himself and the economic team today is a reversal of the past.

I understand exactly what you are doing. You’re trying to provoke a response which would actually put you in troll territory.

Further, you decided to do it on a day when metals are getting crushed and emotions are high. Purely planned.

Knock it off or GTFO.

Clear?

Apparently no one cares about Africa. Guess they figure after all the help they’ve gotten through the decades with no change it’s not worth the effort. That criminal and his cohorts should be tried and hanged.

Rand Slides To 6-Mo Lows As South Africa Unveils ‘Affirmative Action’ Mining Charter

South Africa’s still-newly-minted government has decided to apply the same cleansing of the “original sin,” to the nation’s resource mining operations…

Although it has been in Fox lately about affirmative action putting unqualified as preference over qualified it is also done in other areas including the medical field. Here’s some past on it and now it’s being done by outsourcing where qualifications can’t be assessed because it’s coming from somewhere else. There’s something on it in the first link of how their poster boy for affirmative action was let go after he couldn’t even preform basic dutys resulting in deaths and injuries.
They should require IQ tests for some jobs and change them making it harder to cheat.
Danger in the sky’s. Trading qualified for unqualified and helping them cheat and giving them the answers.
After the FAA changed its screening process in 2014, thousands of applicants who were already in the pipeline—people who had obtained an FAA-accredited degree, taken the AT-SAT exam and had been designated “well-qualified” to become air-traffic controllers—were told by the government that they would have to start the process again. “But this time, when they applied for a job, their college degrees and previous military experience would mean nothing,” reported Fox Business. “They would now compete with thousands of people the agency calls ‘off the street hires’; anyone who wants to, can walk in off the street without any previous training and apply for an air traffic control job.”

For what it’s worth–COTs

Posted by Richard640 @ 17:21 on June 15, 2018  

Silver

*The large specs increased their long positions by 16,063 contracts and reduced their shorts by 14,233 contracts.

*The commercials reduced their long positions by 4,793 contracts and increased their shorts by 25,042 contracts.

*The small specs increased their longs by 191 contracts and increased their shorts by 652 contracts.

Gold

*The large specs increased their long positions by 7,431 contracts and decreased their shorts by 1,393 contracts.

*The commercials reduced their longs by 4,608 contracts and increased their shorts by 1,632 contracts.

*The small specs decreased their longs by 2,425 contracts and increased their shorts by 159 contracts.

The silver COT report has to be the most bearish in the history of the silver market, and those numbers were as of Tuesday. That doesn’t mean the price has to tank anymore. That bearishness was possibly resolved today.

Rand Slides To 6-Mo Lows As South Africa Unveils ‘Affirmative Action’ Mining Charter

Seemingly not satisfied with ‘enabling’ the violent deaths of hundreds of white farmers with their policy of redistribution (confiscation) of white-owned farm-land to poorer black farmers, South Africa’s still-newly-minted government has decided to apply the same cleansing of the “original sin,” to the nation’s resource mining operations.

Now, I’m not smart enough to know when the FANGs roll over, and I only very very rarely short but the point is we’re not long FANGs either.

Markets move in cycles and asymmetry is almost always inversely correlated with popularity.

And here’s one more pretty chart from Jeffrey Gundlach that explains why we think the timing opportune for private placements in the commodity space.

The experts can help us understand what to do at each stop on the journey, but it’s probably a mistake to let them drive the bus.

re these big drops in AU AG??

Posted by Mr.Copper @ 14:49 on June 15, 2018  

Doesn’t make any sense. A blip? I’m thinking AU AG will bounce from here. I’m thinking the dollar’s sudden bounce is a mistake. No reason for it. Markets sure are acting strange a long time now.

If this drop in AU and AG continues it’s a big deflation signal (big slowdown) for the global economy. And it would not surprise me as we enter no mans land transition area. As the economy continues progressing in REVERSE of the past.

From SCREWING America since WW II to restoring America from the extra screwing that started after 1971. There’s going to be very strange things happening. And in a deflation gold can come alive as people lose confidence in the central planners ability to manage the global economy.

The anti American scumbags “managed us” “stole” “embezzled” the USA to a point that resulted in the crisis in ’08.

ZH readers on gold:

Posted by Richard640 @ 13:12 on June 15, 2018  

It used to be $1B for about a 1% drop.  Then it was $3B for about the same.  now we have $34B and what a 2 maybe 3%move?  It ain’t working anymore and it is becoming too obvious.  Dumping over 250,000 thousand contracts in four hours is getting a bit surreal.

@goldielocks re 0:18 on June 15, Got Those, thanks for the added info.
