We’ll see if gold and silver have the usual good days while the US market is closed and then fade when the US sm re-opens on Tuesday.

On e good thing, we know the shares can’t go down on Monday. 🙂

i saw a bald eagle today.  our noble national bird has his ignoble moments.  this one was dining on some roadkill (a possum, i think) beside state road 59 south of wacissa, florida.

a handsome bird, never the less.

“Wait nearly 30 years, allowing both the U.S. economy and U.S. corporate revenues to grow at the same rate as the past two decades, while stock prices remain unchanged, with no intervening periods of recession or investor risk-aversion, or alternatively (and far more likely), watch the S&P 500 lose two-thirds of its value over the completion of this market cycle.”

I can respond to some of that.

Where else do you spot opportunities?

Check out Water Companies, in clear uptrends, and absolutely NOTHING about it in Gov’t Media. AWK, WTR, AWR, NEE, MSEX.

Gold is inversely correlated with either near zero rates, zero rates, or negative rates which makes it an ideal investment.

Not always. From around 1971 to 1980 Gold went from $140 to $800. At the exact same time, Paul Volker raised interest rates, they went UP. From around 6% to 21%.  How could that David Rosenberg not KNOW that?? He must be very young.

RE HELICOPTER MONEY?? We’ve had plenty of that since the dot com bust, 9/11 and the real estate crash in 2008. But it didn’t land in the right hands. It went to people that didn’t NEED it. That helicopter money should have been given to the 18 to 25 year old private sector non union employees. Even if they were NOT employed if they wanted to see some action.

They did give helicopter money to them (under paid people) in the form of real estate and home equity loans. That many could not pay back. They screwed themselves, the bankers. I’m sure that back room story was…”hell no don’t give them higher minimum wage, they’ll just spend it, give them loans” 🙂

This debt morass (Gov’t Borrowing?) has been the result of tax receipts not keeping up with inflation, was the result of private sector non union wages not keeping up with inflation. The water company, the electric company, your school taxes, teachers cops etc etc all keep up with inflation by simply raising bills or tax rates. They don’t even have to ASK. EVERYTHING has to go up in unison. But, but.

But the common working people CAN’T just raise their wage in unison to the employer. Each household is like a business that has overhead. Many are supported by taxes, of the people who can’t afford to pay taxes, so budget deficits or public debt gets bigger.

Why is nobody talking like this on CNBC?? Are they THAT stupid? Or just won’t admit it? Re they are talking about a virus from China. I think TPTB need to stop supporting these artificially cheap airline tickets cause massive numbers of unneeded frivolous international travel.

Definitely Gold and most other metals are going much higher, and NOT necessarily from inflation. Water too, a most important product was always very cheap. Palladium platinum, watch Copper and aluminum too, all under priced, like airline tickets and unskilled labor.

Well $3K would be nice if it happened by the end of this year. 🙂

ZH had an article about how the Fed had created an “everything bubble”. I just haven’t seen the “bubble” created in pm’s just yet, in fact the bubble seems to have been in creating the amount of short contracts they’ve thrown at our metals on the Crimex.

I’m really hoping for the type of bubble that takes gold to $5-10K before this is over but I guess that would mean they’ve lost control of the currency markets.

Gold is inversely correlated with either near zero rates, zero rates, or negative rates which makes it an ideal investment. Mark Twain coined the phrase “Lies, damned lies, and statistics”. But the thing about charts is that they don’t lie. Gold went through a long-term, multi-year basing period. Now, it has broken out and the chart looks fantastic. Also, gold is no country’s liability. For example, in the United States M2 growth is running at double digits. So when you compare the new supply of gold against the supply of money coming into the system from Central Banks, to me it’s a very clear cut case that you want to have very high exposure to bullion.

It’s just a matter of when, not if.==When we get to the lows of the next recession, we’re going to find that these Central Banks that already have been extremely aggressive are going to engage in what is otherwise known as the “debt jubilee” or a right-out debt monetization which was actually the final chapter of the Bernanke playbook. Remember, Ben Bernanke got his nickname “Helicopter Ben” because in a speech in 2002 he suggested that helicopter money could always be used to prevent deflation. So we’re going to have helicopter money.

although the banks did add more longs than shorts by a small margin.

Left for awhile, didn’t see the selling in the shares coming, must’ve happened in the last half hour?

You did good. I came close, it was a nice property that flowed inside lots of wood not just typical and cheap and that was before the volcano when home prices were down, But I learned a native Islander there was trying to qualify for it and wasn’t going to take from them so let them have it. It wasn’t in the area where the volcano went so probably survived.
You should of got your real-estate license. You have a way with words lol Awesome on taxes. In California it’s the highest and will just get worse.

You know the old saying: “Buy when there’s blood (or lava) in the streets”.  I bought the volcano ranch here when lava was threatening the village… cheap.  I endured another nearby eruption, and now that the volcano has settled down… perhaps for years… people are again buying in the area.  I paid retirement cash for the ranch here, and in four years it has now doubled in value.  But I’m not selling nor encumbering the property.  This is my cheap retirement home, ’till death do us part.  As a senior citizen homestead, my property taxes are $200/year.  Best bargain of a lifetime.

gpl green again – but not by much.

In Denver, we’re being invaded by berqa-wearing women.

I don’t get why our country has to accept so many people that have no interest in human-rights, women’s rights, and have zero interest in culturally integrating with society. We’re fuct on this level as a country. If you love your daughter, nieces, wives or anything that’s been accomplished in our country, then what the hell is going on here?

Why do men need to dress their wives like ninja’s with a slit seen out for eyes? Fuct. If the men want, they can dress up in berqa clown suits. If a man can’t control his mind and actions in society and forces a woman to dress like this, put them in prison cells.

They should have never changed the name. Coeur d’Alene sounded nice. Coeur sounds stupid. I knew when they changed the name it would hurt the stock. Why didn’t they name it Coors to remind people of beer from Colorado? 🙂

Same thing happened to Smith & Wesson when they changed it to American Outdoor Brands corp. It just kept dropping. So now they are going to separate them. Announced. Back to Smith & Wesson soon and it started climbing again. Remember Sunshine Mining?? Some people like a stock with a nice name. CDE needs much higher Silver prices

“Until about four years ago, Coeur Mining was known as Coeur d’Alene Mines Corporation. It was only in May 2013 that the company changed its name to the simpler Coeur Mining, Inc., as we know it today, as it shifted its state of incorporation from Idaho, where it was originally incorporated in 1923, to Delaware.”

Look at CDE chart after 2013:

looking a lot better right now.

Maybe we’ll even pull out a nice, positive close.

Gotta love the strength of the last few days
