has lost $1.00 in the last 10 minutes……

Oh oh

meanwhile GFI is plus 4.5 %

Re share lending…I seem to remember that if you place a GTC order to sell yr shares above the market, yr broker can’t lend the shares, sp put an order in 100 % above todays price and …rememeber it.

Others I’ve read say unless you specifically notify your broker that you will not allow your shares to be lent out in your margin account, the broker has a right to do so.

I liken it to what the WEF and WHO has done to say a country has accepted and approved of their shenanigans. If you don’t specifically notify them that you DO NOT approve, they consider that you HAVE approved. (Implied consent)

They’ve bet the farm on NEM. It’s pretty much carrying the HUI, although B and AEM are helping some.

My concern is that most of the quarter prices weren’t a lot higher than Q2 and won’t reflect recent gains which will be blockbuster this quarter.
Really hoping they come through.👍

I just checked with our brokerage account ( Schwab) how the lending out of shares works.

I was told that unless your account goes into “margin debt” status ( if you’re account is worth $100,000, yet you borrow more $ than what your account is presently worth), the shares in your account are not lent out…….

Looks like the scum are working overtime to try and thwart any positive momentum to PM shares ( been closely watching how NEM is trying to be held in check, just before earnings come out….

Thanks! Let the healing begin! 🙂

The shares are being limited by those top lines ….once/if they break, we shud see the shares power ahead, as they are well undervalued relative to current prices…..

I hope you’re wrong too!

Probably like you said earlier. A whole bunch of people probably bought in the last month and a half and saw their gains evaporate in 3 days.

Earnings will be good but may not matter if the metals aren’t going up. I don’t think these gains are going to hold today. Hope I’m wrong.

Serial doses of reality will increasingly be foisted upon big tech’s plans to ruin your life in years to come …

Thank you Steve

re: shares … Yeah you’d think they’d be doing better on the metals turnaround. I guess people are afraid of the Double whammy! (Technical Term)

Metals are doing pretty well, no doubt they’ll make a stand at $50 silver.

Shares should be doing a lot better today though. Almost as if they don’t think the metals are going to hold their gains.

Dog

he DID have a screw loose.

…DID.

now, he’s healing.

Yes the battle is with silver at $50 … where a weekly close back above the mark would be a very positive development … with multiple weekly closes above the large round number and previous highs a technical signal more gains should be expected.

Not that gold at $4,000 is not significant in this regard as well … where COT considerations … with collapsing open interest (OI) and record physical offtake … should be expected to drive prices higher in spite of overbought technical conditions that would normally be considered the dominant factor previously post new record highs.

On a COT related basis … gold is ready to go again.

Of course, general liquidity conditions and further official selling could play into the formula too … but should only act as temporary hinderances regarding higher prices that appear necessary before increasing demand would be cleared.

People are piling in because they know a new currency regime is coming … where it appears gold will be central … and silver will be remonetized as a codicil.

Me too.

Shut our government down and America loses.

2 MILLION Pennsylvanians depend on SNAP to feed their families.

For me, it’s hungry Americans over party.

Paying our military over party.

Paying Capitol Police and federal workers over party.

I choose country over party.

The comex gold sell off is all paper driven as the record physical buy continues

Analyzing comex data since the price roller coaster began last Friday (Oct 17) indicates that paper shorts flooded the market at record high volume driving the price down. December contract OI dropped as paper longs folded. However, physical gold bought on the October contract continued at a sizzling record pace. Two large players emerge from being somewhat dormant, BofA and Morgan Stanley house accounts, and bought much of the physical gold.

Finally got to watch the other half of this by Michelle M  and Andy Schevtman.It got better as it goes on but whole thing on what’s going on now world wide.

There is ongoing demand still going on. He explained how China is flying around to different country’s buying lower grade silver like Dory?? and refining it, going around the comex so not drive the price up while accumulating as much as they can. The LBMA and more, that he hasn’t seen anything like this. Paper trades being usurped in and passed on.

Gold up $25, Silver up $66 – above $4100 and $49

PM shares are strong – GDX up 1.8% currently.

Bitcoin up $1900, Oil flying up 5.6% just below $62 as we put new sanctions on Russia – no peace talks in Hungary for now.

SM flat, Dollar up a little, rates up 3 bips.

Maybe we can close the week on an up note?
