I don’t know ask the Democrats. Someone like Newsom or the ones who run NGOs.

Do you have any news on Eloro? Down 17%, but not on any real heavy volume. I’m thinking it has some support here and might be worth a stab. Problem is that it’s pretty hard sometimes to get news on these juniors.
You see anything that would explain the dump?

If you say so š
I took down my post in the interest of not creating strife.
Life is too short and most of us donāt have much time left anyway.
That being said, with the time we still do have left, itās nice to see the pm complex doing well!

They needed a cover story for the steal … strokes Trump’s ego so he loves it.
Cheers
The double standards continue to pile up …
… the question is … if this is stealing from Trump … then what are all the egregious taxes and tariffs on the public?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Powell must have buckled
Dollar craters, markets roaring, pmās turn.
Notice how they had to put pmās in a hole before the news?
When are we going to get rid of this a**hole …
… they leave office but their love remains.
At least the locals are finally catching on and doing something about it.
About time … level the damn thing.
Mornin all … a bit cranky this morning.

Say farewell to the AI bubble, and get ready for the crash!
Most people not deeply involved in the artificial intelligence frenzy may not have noticed, but perceptions of AIās relentless march toward becoming more intelligent than humans, even becoming a threat to humanity, came to a screeching halt Aug. 7.
That was the day when the most widely followed AI company, OpenAI, released GPT-5, an advanced product that the firm had long promised would put competitors to shame and launch a new revolution in this purportedly revolutionary technology.
As it happened, GPT-5 was a bust. It turned out to be less user-friendly and in many ways less capable than its predecessors in OpenAIās arsenal. It made the same sort of risible errors in answering usersā prompts, was no better in math (or even worse), and not at all the advance that OpenAI and its chief executive, Sam Altman, had been talking up.
āThe thought was that this growth would be exponential,ā says Alex Hanna, a technology critic and co-author (with Emily M. Bender of the University of Washington) of the indispensable new book āThe AI Con: How to Fight Big Techās Hype and Create the Future We Want.ā Instead, Hanna says, āWeāre hitting a wall.ā
The consequences go beyond how so many business leaders and ordinary Americans have been led to expect, even fear, the penetration of AI into our lives. Hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested by venture capitalists and major corporations such as Google, Amazon and Microsoft in OpenAI and its multitude of fellow AI labs, even though none of the AI labs has turned a profit.
Public companies have scurried to announce AI investments or claim AI capabilities for their products in the hope of turbocharging their share prices, much as an earlier generation of businesses promoted themselves as ādot-comsā in the 1990s to look more glittery in investorsā eyes.
Nvidia, the maker of a high-powered chip powering AI research, plays almost the same role as a stock market leader that Intel Corp., another chip-maker, played in the 1990s ā helping to prop up the bull market in equities.
John Bolton’s house raided by the FBI
The FBI today raided the Maryland home of John Bolton, who previously served as President Donald J. Trumpās National Security Advisor and has since been a staunch critic of the President. The raid was reportedly part of a ānational security investigation in search of classified records,ā according to an official who spoke with NBC News.

All was set to vote in a conservative government but then a chap called Trump chimed in. Crime reform was number 1 on the conservative agenda.
Unfortunately our conservative leader was compared to MAGA Trump and the election was turned on its head.
For most of us conservatives it was an unfair representation. But it was effective.

Just like the UK now, but I know, I know. Carney good, Trump bad.

Punching up
Been pretty much like this all week, with the metals starting the day in the hole every day except for maybe Wednesday. Dollar a little higher with rates flat. Oil flat. Crypto flat. SM bucking the trend and starting the day a bit higher. It has been lagging this week.
PM shares mostly lower, but we’ve had a good week unless they find a way to take it all back today.
No eco data of significance.
Powell speaks, but I’m not sure who cares. Pressure is mounting for one of his Governors, Lisa Cook, to resign or be fired. She’s another black DEI hire who believes she’s entitled to commit fraud on her mortgage application – like Letticia James – but not suffer any consequences. Course why would she? She’s been handed everything without having to be the better, why wouldn’t she expect to receive a pass?
The government has created an entire class of these types of people. It’s disgusting.

Fascinating times.
Hey maddog
No worries. He’s entitled to his opinion like everyone else. Trump evokes a lot of emotion, but I’ve never quite seen a single man/leader that has been attacked like he has. The conversation on policy is impossible to have without him being attacked. He causes people to lose their minds, even the few of them left that are somewhat rational. š Nothing quite like it.
Faber talked about the continuing expansion of the money supply. I’m not sure how he gauges that. M2?
Tough time sleeping tonight. Looks like we’re punching up again in the overnights.

BTW you mentioned a lot of Hispanics around you. If they have any relatives in Calif with school children they should know this and teach their children as well as talk to the school about being notified first of anything like this.
They are trying to make a bill that anyone, a non relative, complete stranger can fill out a paper with zero vetting or ID just anyone to come take their kid out of school without even checking.Ā Any child but fear Hispanic children first.

They’d do it to them too just like europe. Like the people don’t matter just their agenda.
Ferrett
Yeah where was NATO andĀ Ā wonder who helped them and supplied them the bombs. They’d turn in anyone to get what they want even their own and started that with the Euro unionĀ and why they should never have that power. They wouldn’t anyways.
