I can’t believe the JNUG sept 21 $7.50 call is selling for .25–all volatilty has been wrung out of PM stocks and ETFs

Posted by Richard640 @ 10:13 on September 10, 2018  

the $ is down but PM paper is all red–nothing helps…what can change this pattern?

USD taking a hit

Posted by Buygold @ 10:09 on September 10, 2018  

as usual – no help.

R640 – interesting about Sept. – I remember back in the days when Aug./ Sept./ Oct. were always rocky for stocks. Seems it hasn’t been that way for quite a few years.

I guess one thing to look for is days that open higher and then fail.

Just another day in the worst month of the year for stawks…DOW up 98–NAZ up 11–S&P up 11.88 etc etc

Posted by Richard640 @ 9:47 on September 10, 2018  

September has historically been the most volatile month of the year for stocks. Equity investors who are wary of any further swings can look to alternative ETF strategies to limit the potential risks.

According to data from “Stock Trader’s Almanac,” the month of September has been the worst performing month of the year for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 since 1950, the worst for the Nasdaq since 1971, and the most difficult for the Russell 1000 and Russell 2000 since 1979, CNBC reports.

Good Times…
My son wanted to know why it is that Venezuela (a topic that gets discussed around the dinner table at home) chose such painfully, obviously asinine policies.


After much thought I explained it thus.
I’d seen it before somewhere and so I dug it up. Here it is in a different form.
We bipeds don’t change. I’ve come to realise not to fight it, just see it for what it is and make sure you’re positioned accordingly…for your friends family and those you care about.

Speaking of which you should consider joining our family.


No special offers, no steak knives, no wild ridiculous promises – simply rational analysis and positioning for a macro world we’ve never encountered before.

EVER!

That’s both exciting and terrifying at the same time.

And credit default swaps got a rise that even an old guy overdosing on pills that rhyme with Niagra would have been proud of.

From Free North Carolina BlogSpot: I Made A Snowman

Posted by Moggy @ 17:00 on September 9, 2018

From Butch a roommate at military school. He came home with me for a leave

8:00 – I made a snowman.

8:10 – A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn’t make a snow woman.

8:15 – So, I made a snow woman.

8:17 – My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman’s voluptuous
chest saying it objectified snow women everywhere.

8:20 – The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it could
have been two snow men instead.

8:22 – The transgender man..woman…person asked why I didn’t just make one
snow person with detachable parts.

8:25 – The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose,
as veggies are food and not to decorate snow figures with.

8:28 – I am being called a racist because the snow couple is white.

8:31 – The Muslim gent across the road demands the snow woman wear a burqa.

8:40 – The Police arrive saying someone has been offended.

8:42 – The feminist neighbor complained again that the broomstick of the
snow woman needs to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic
role.

8:43 – The council equality officer arrived and threatened me with eviction.

8:45 – TV news crew from the ABC shows up. I am asked if I know the
difference between snowmen and snow-women? I reply, “Snowballs” and am now called a sexist.

9:00 – I’m on the News as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobic,
sensibility offender, bent on stirring up trouble during difficult
weather.

9:10 – I am asked if I have any accomplices. My children are taken by social
services.

9:29 – Far left protesters offended by everything are marching down the
street demanding for me to be beheaded.

Moral: There is no moral to this story. It’s just a view of the world in
which we live today, and it is only getting worse.

I think the safety of 5G networks is a legitimate question. A poll for the future.

Cheers

RE: Poll…

Posted by old-timer @ 12:47 on September 9, 2018  

I wonder about the new 5G networks that are scheduled world-wide.

Any thoughts here on that?

BTW, got some more Eagles  from eBay, now less than $375 per roll, incl shipping!

Prayers for President and Country.

I’m a huge tennis fan. Watched the match yesterday and Serena was just plain getting beat, she would’ve lost anyway.

Her coach admitted giving her signals from the stands and justified it by saying “all coaches have been doing it during the tournament.” Serena of course denied being coached.

She committed no less than 3 violations including breaking her racquet on the court. She had it coming.

the parable of the horse. a lesson in the tao

Posted by treefrog @ 10:00 on September 9, 2018  

long ago in rural china there was a farmer with an exceptional stallion. the neighboring farmers would often compliment him saying “you have the most beautiful horse i have ever seen,” or “your horse is the best horse there ever was.”

the farmer would reply, “yes, he is a good horse.”

one night, the horse jumped the fence and ran away.  the neighbors came by,  lamenting, “your wonderful horse is gone. this is terrible!  a disaster!”

“yes,” the farmer said, “he is gone.”

two days later, the horse came back with three wild mares he had gathered together, and they all jumped back over the fence into the farmer’s field.

the neighbors gathered at the fence, laughing  and cheering.  “the horse came back!,” they said, “this is wonderful, hooray!”

“yes,” said the farmer, “he came back, and now i have four horses.”

a few days later, the farmer’s son was trying to break one of the new mares to use as a saddle horse.  the mare threw the son and he broke his leg.

the neighbors again gathered at the fence, weeping and wailing.  “your son is crippled,”  they cried.  “this is terrible!”

“yes, his leg is broken,” replied the farmer, “it will take a long time to heal.”

the next week the emperor’s army came through the village and took all the able bodied young men to be soldiers.

Why Trump is the right guy for this era

Posted by Ororeef @ 20:00 on September 8, 2018  

The debt explosion is going to get much worse as interest rises ..WE are bankrupt all of us….as a Country ,Trump has been their before several times and he has extricated himself from it successfully  !  NO other President or candidate  has that kind of experience that successfully got himself out of debt on such a large scale .NO ONE living has that kind of experience …I suspect Elon MUSK will be tested to see if he measures up ….Experience in that arena is invaluable .

I have been there as a CREDITOR  years ago and a group of NY TAX ATTORNEYS working out of the Empire State Building hired to represent the Creditors and Bankrupt-ee worked out a plan as I listened very intently to see how I was going to get PAID the thousands I was owed…I learned how it was done and I got paid even though two years later the Bankrupt-ee went out of business .ALL the creditors got paid by keeping them in business with a tight reign on their ability to spend money .Creditors went to the front of the line after current bills got paid along with 10 % of past bills and management was watched like a hawk.Been there done that in 1968….Small creditors got paid before the big guys 100 %.

It s the biggest creditors that had to wait the longest because even the smallest creditor could have demanded they be denied any more credit and everybody would have gone bust …It wasent because there was fraud or anything like that..it was we entered a recession and the biggest retail Department stores started taking 30 then 60 ,then 90 days to pay their bills and caused a ripple effect all the way down the line…Everybody knew it was a time factor and nobody panicked and as the economy got better we demanded more payment…WE were all manufacturers of clothing …..in the end manufacturers went out of business or went off shore .I left the business from the sewing end  500,000 jobs lost  in NY-NJ area alone and in N.Carolina the cloth mills went off shore,the cotton growers grew off shore  …the loss of American jobs was about 1  million ..Thats how China grew as we traded labor intensive work in exchange for entry in to their Banking and Insurance business ..Thats how this all happened !  NOW 50 years later  Trumps trying to rebalance that horrable mistake  the DEAL that the BANKSTERS made that gave our jobs away and they got entry into Asian Banks .

I cant tell you how many WIDOWS lost their only means earning a good living and went on welfare…I had 150 employees 99 % women…
