“special guard units”

That’s rather disconcerting. We’ll have to see how they’re used.

… worth the listen no matter how far down the rabbit hole you live … definitely a good communicator.

I don’t agree with his solution … DC commies need to be broken up … our political economy needs to be cut down into bite size pieces where you can hold your politicos accountable … because it will not happen any other way … this is why Trump (and the Israeli lobby) are using Charlie’s assassination to grab more power …  here come the Brown shirts … the Pretorian Guard (Deep State) is already here …

… and is why they had to shut him up … along with he took their money and had to be punished (for defecting) … and he knew too much … not to mention he would have been President one day … as he was huge with young people (why the J-lobby wanted him so bad).

All sane people should be afraid at this point … and should work to bring sanity back into their lives.

Go local folks … reject corrupt DC/state commies … who are working to enslave you … before it’s too late.

None of the DC / Deep State / state commies are your buddies.

Wake up

I hope so too! 🙂

That would be great. Hope that’s true.

that since they’ve brought the shares back so hard, they might flush them again after the meeting and announcement.

Again though, that’s 14 years of trauma talking.

Interpreting Zelensky’s Shifting Goalposts For Victory

He finally accepts the impossibility of restoring Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders…

Zelensky recently told ABC News that “Victory, to my mind, Putin’s goal is to occupy Ukraine, this is to destroy us, occupy, and did he occupy it?…He didn’t occupy us, we win, and I think so, because we have our country.”

This is a far cry from the mantra that he’s chanted almost daily for the past 3,5 years since the special operation began about restoring his country’s pre-2014 borders.

Quite clearly, he’s hinting that he’ll accept an end to the conflict that doesn’t achieve that aim, thus going with the political flow.

About that, while Trump might escalate US involvement for the purpose of coercing Putin into freezing the conflict without obtaining any of his stated goals therein, he doesn’t have any illusions about Ukraine restoring its pre-2014 borders.

Yep except Platinum and Pal they all held pretty darn good.

Platinum -28.45  and -21.75 Pal down bigger than gold.

Pretty damn impressive after the initial takedown.

Ha I sensed something wrong with that other guy. I got another 3.8 on a 6 month.

I don’t know if you saw that video but Pinto seems to think a some point Powell might make a surprise 100 pt move.

Well I know I could only get a 3.33 on a 1 yr Treasury this morning. I might get another short term time frame again tomorrow too. The 3 months too low now.

Looks like silver had a bit of a swing but climbed back up and slowed  down.

Will they start to cover?

Almost feels like the dip buyers are already getting itchy to buy this dip in the shares. $20 off the gold price is nothing. Silver down 2% is something we’ve seen several times already on the way up.

I’ll be stunned if we don’t get at least a couple days of correction. I hope I’m stunned! 😁

On the Fed and thinks the correction will be fast. Seems like a event but unless your looking for what he’s watching we won’t know like spread sheets. So I hope I have time to learn what he’s watching.

I’m trying to stay up because I have to buy some more treasuries and for some reason told me to call between 5 am and 6am my time 3 hrs behind theirs. It’s a killer over here. I’m buying more just in case.

The phyzz seems not to affected right now, not too bad. What the Hui will do I don’t know. Some shares are topping only holding on sympathy.

Remember what Powell says may matter if he suggests that any further cuts if he does will be based on data his famous quote if he doesn’t sound too hopeful. That might be concerning especially if it’s only 25 pts till next meeting at least for stocks.  Or worse if he doesn’t cut and used data.

I think I’ll go to sleep hopefully.and hope I get back up in a couple of hours. The market isn’t too hospitable to us in the West.

Yes, this action makes me wonder if they don’t go ahead and cut .50 with a dovish overtone.

Seems pretty obvious the players are frontrunning the decision and started yesterday. I guess if we start to see them come back a few minutes before the announcement we’ll have our answer.

If they do a .25, then I suppose we get whacked for a bit. Going to be interesting.

Good call looks like the shares will be well down on the open, as the metals are being clubbed…..

Is this a hit that starts a bigger correction , or just to calm prices down, as the Fed will cut by .5 and metals will fly up.

If we are in an effective revaluation, then why throw money away shorting,…..

It will also depend on how he explains his decision.

• Market expectations
  As of Tuesday, September 16, 2025, a 25-basis-point cut is widely anticipated by investors. The CME FedWatch tool shows a 96% probability of such a cut, and financial analysts have largely factored it into asset prices. 
  • Because it is an expected move, a simple 25-basis-point cut is less likely to trigger a massive, immediate rally in stock prices. Some analysts even suggest a short-term, “sell the news” pullback is possible as investors who bought in anticipation of the cut exit their positions.
  • A larger, 50-basis-point cut would be a significant surprise and could cause a powerful, immediate rally. Conversely, no cut at all would likely disappoint the market and lead to a sell-off. 
  The significance of Powell’s commentary
  The key driver of market movement will be Powell’s remarks during his press conference, especially his tone regarding future rate cuts and economic conditions. 
  A dovish 25-basis-point cut
  This scenario involves a 25-basis-point cut accompanied by language signaling more rate cuts in the future.
  • How it happens: Powell would emphasize the need to address the weakening labor market, which is showing signs of softness. The updated “dot plot” of economic projections would likely show officials anticipating multiple cuts by year-end.
  • Likely market reaction: This would be perceived positively by the market, potentially leading to moderate gains for equities, especially growth-oriented sectors like technology. A dovish outlook would reinforce confidence that the Fed is poised to support the economy. 
  • A hawkish 25-basis-point cut
    This scenario features a 25-basis-point cut but is accompanied by cautious or non-committal commentary from Powell about further cuts.
    • How it happens: The Fed might note the weakening jobs market but stress that inflation is still a concern, especially with prices trending upward. Powell could emphasize that future decisions will remain “data-dependent.”
    • Likely market reaction: This could be interpreted as a “hawkish cut,” which would disappoint investors who expect more aggressive easing. Stocks could react negatively or remain flat as the prospect of fewer future cuts spooks the market. 

• Borrowing costs: The cut would likely be passed on to consumers and businesses in the form of lower interest payments on loans, including mortgages, credit cards, and auto loans. Some of this is already priced in, so the drop may be modest.
• Bond market: Government bond prices would likely rise, and yields would fall, as a rate cut makes existing bonds with higher fixed interest payments more attractive. For dividend stocks, lower bond yields would also make their payouts comparatively more appealing to income investors.
• Savings rates: Interest paid on savings accounts and CDs would probably decline, making saving a less rewarding activity.
• Investment sentiment: With rates trending downward, money tends to flow out of lower-yielding savings and bonds and into higher-risk assets like stocks and real estate, fueling bullish sentiment. However, some analysts are concerned that elevated stock market valuations and other economic factors could pose risks. 

With Trump and the Fed who seems to lean left good luck with that on anything paper. Least have mental  stops cuz I don’t trust the MMs to not drop down and grab up your shares at a discount.  The bigger question is when a market correction occurs will it be a fast one or a slow take down through the months while people lose money over time.

The shares were well weak today, tks to the relative thiness of the mkts…I note Gold was sold down ….to 3674….and in days gone by Gold would no doubt have cratered way more …but as of now Gold is back to 3693, 10 bucks off the hi….that to me says the buyers will take any sellers on….

I will sweat any falls out…..
