Loading ...That’s a good point but seems it doesn’t matter how much money they get. They just spend it and not on the Americans they got it from. If they taxed more people they’d spend that too. They’re no better than children at the cash box. When they had reserves from babyboomers that they would need later, they spent that too. Then we see some of the dumb things they’re spending it on and throwing away our money all over the world. Then complain they have to borrow to pay the debts. Only thing that’s gonna change anything is to get rid of them and change the laws to prevent this looting of our tax dollars to continue. They also need to take back all the social security they’ve taken, privatize it and actively manage it in investments or pay them off so they can invest it themselves.

What does the EU have that Americans need? Taking out the neocons that is.
Dear Mr Musk.
On X you are quoted as saying that “if AI and robots don’t solve our national debt, we’re toast”. In the light of the worst October govt. deficit ever, worse even than October 2020 during the Covid firehosing, how can AI and robots not make the deficit even more bad? Looking at the revenue side, as AI and robots take over jobs, income tax and social security revenues will fall, while social security and health expenditures will rise (health, because robots don’t pay insurance premiums and govt. schemes will pick up the slack). Because robots don’t make SS contributions or pay taxes either. The deficit can only get bigger. And even if a magic wand removed the national debt and there wasn’t $104.4bn in interest for the month the deficit would only drop to $180bn. In the absence of said wand, the interest charge will only increase as the deficit increases by $3tn a year: and that’s after DOGE savings and tariff revenues are included.
Rather than your manic rush to put everyone out of a job, the country needs to dump some technological advances and return people to the workforce, removing them from social security payments and becoming contributors to the system with taxes.
Make of this what you will. I don’t think it’s fake.
SW is Steve Witkoff, YU Yuri Ushakov.
SW: Yuri, Yuri, here’s what I would do. My recommendation.
YU: Yes, please.
SW: I would make the call and just reiterate that you congratulate the president on this achievement, that you supported it, you supported it, that you respect that he is a man of peace and you’re
just, you’re really glad to have seen it happen. So I would say that. I think from that it’s going to be a really good call.
Because – let me tell you what I told the President. I told the president that you – that the Russian Federation has always wanted a peace deal. That’s my belief. I told the president I believe that. And I believe the question is — the issue is is that we have two nations that are having a hard time coming to a compromise and when we do, we’re going to have a peace deal. I’m even thinking that maybe we set out like a 20-point peace proposal, just like we did in Gaza. We put a 20-point Trump plan together that was 20 points for peace and I’m thinking maybe we do the same thing
with you. My point is this…
YU: Ok, ok my friend. I think that very point our leaders could discuss. Hey Steve, I agree with you that he will congratulate, he will say that Mr. Trump is a real peace man and so and so. That he willsay.
SW: But here’s what I think would be amazing.
YU: Ok, ok.
SW: What if, what if… hear me out…
YU: I will discuss that with my boss and then I come back to you. Ok?
SW: Yeah because listen to what I’m saying. I just want you to say, maybe just to say this to President Putin, because you know I have the deepest respect for President Putin.
YU: Yes, Yes.
SW: Maybe he says to President Trump: you know, Steve and Yuri discussed a very similar 20-point plan to peace and that could be something that we think might move the needle a little bit, we’re open to those sorts of things — to explore what it’s going to take to get a peace deal done. Now, me to you, I know what it’s going to take to get a peace deal done: Donetsk and maybe a land swap somewhere. But I’m saying instead of talking like that, let’s talk more hopefully because I think we’re going to get to a deal here. And I think Yuri, the president will give me a lot of space and discretion to get to the deal.
YU: I see…
SW: …so if we can create that opportunity that after this I talked to Yuri and we had a conversation I think that could lead to big stuff.
YU: Ok, that sounds good. Sounds good.
SW: And here’s one more thing: Zelenskiy is coming to the White House on Friday.
YU: I know that. (chuckles)
SW: I will go to that meeting because they want me there, but I think if possible we have the call with your boss before that Friday meeting.
YU: Before, before – yeah?
SW: Correct.
YU: Ok, ok. I got your advice. So I discuss that with my boss and then I come back to you, ok?
SW: Ok Yuri, I’ll speak to you soon.
YU: Great, great. Thank you so much. Thanks you.
SW: Bye, bye.
Except, Z is no longer going to the WH. Trump’s not wasting any more time on the pathetic grub who is still pushing the “no territorial concessions” angle. So absolutely no chance of a deal by Thursday.
Maddog, I followed the prompts for moby.co
but bailed when they wanted my email to send me the one stock that is undervalued.
Only one stock, apparently. Looks like moby thinks it’s a bubble!! I wonder if moby recommends shorting the other 32,946,301 stocks worldwide?

Re AI trading…that is a fascinating insight into what will become a huge subject……I wonder if I ask Grok for a Company to buy/investment.will it tell me to put every penny into Tesla… !!!!!
Retail traders lose – the answer? AI, of course.
The article’s main thrust is that the reason traders lose is because of emotions. By letting AI trade at the high emotion stage, losses are turned to profits. I can see how that would work. But when the time comes to sell, the adage is that you are selling to the bigger fool. But if everyone used AI for their trades, what would happen? I suspect that when one AI (say, Grok) says sell, then Claude wouldn’t be buying because it can see that the bulk of any profits has been made, and over time as more people use AI this would lead to smaller and smaller buy/sell points, that is, profits, as Grok and Claude take the margins to the limit. Finally you’d reach the point where there would only be cents involved, profits are minimal and trading effectively ceases. You’re only in it for the divvies.
Any attempts by the greater fools (or their counterparts, the lucky bastards) to enter the arena will be thwarted by Grok and Claude, because as they push the price up with their buying all rises will be stymied by AI selling. This is going to create a big problem for the brokerage firms and banks with the greater fools unable to lose all that money to them. I’m sure they are already working on it. Using AI, of course.
Nobody’s mentioning Putin’s reaction to the peace plan.
It will be different to the original 28 point plan after Z has managed a few tweaks, there were issues with it from Russia’s POV before the tweaks and he isn’t going to sign something just to give Trump a thanksgiving present.
The start of the SO only had a minor, temporary impact on the POG, so you wouldn’t expect much of an impact if it stopped.
NAK
It did make a second big move around the time of its latest announcements about a month ago.
This little blip is the last 3 days.
Mr.Copper, Maddog
With all due respect to both of you, whom I respect.
Mr.Copper: None of that is news, recent news. There is no recent, public news. My point.
Maddog: The strong boost from Trump’s comments months ago have long since faded, for tbe most part. It has remained higher than before those coments. Also, I have not seen it trade in correlation with the general market. More with PMs, but they haven’t moved much the last few days. Perhaps it is copper price related.
I just wanted to mention that I noticed a small change to its trading pattern of late.
Thank you for your research.
Mr Copper
As long as demand holds I think a lot of the OTC type stocks, yes I know NAK isn’t, anyways will be considered a buy on future speculation. Speculations dangerous in itself but if these companies show they can mine enough to show future profit combined with higher prices they could be a buy. As long as countries don’t get stupid like the Biden admin. did to Russia and try to shut down trading because that can go two ways it might be the only way to buy gold in fiat and other commodities in some countries who might halt physical exports.
Mr Copper…this is what Grok had to say…….seems u need more than one ‘brain’
Northern Dynasty Minerals (NAK) Stock Update
As of November 25, 2025 (market open), Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (NYSE American: NAK), a junior mining company focused on the Pebble Project (a major undeveloped copper-gold-molybdenum deposit in Alaska), is experiencing a notable uptick in its stock price. The shares are trading around $1.50–$1.81 based on recent closes, reflecting a potential intraday gain of 5–10% from Friday’s close (exact real-time figures can vary; check a live broker for the latest). This continues a volatile 2025 performance, with the stock up over 166% year-to-date amid broader commodity trends.
Why Is NAK Up Today?
The primary drivers appear tied to sector momentum and speculative themes in copper mining stocks:
Copper Price Surge and “Copper Theme” Rally: Copper futures are hitting multi-month highs (above $4.50/lb), fueled by U.S. infrastructure spending, EV battery demand, and data center expansion under the incoming Trump administration’s pro-mining policies. NAK, as a high-grade copper play, is riding this wave. Recent X discussions highlight “$NAK up and moving” in the context of the “Copper Theme,” linking it to data center buildouts that require massive copper wiring.
Post-Election Optimism for Pebble Project: Trump’s victory has boosted sentiment for domestic mining deregulation. The Pebble Project has faced EPA vetoes under Biden, but analysts see a path to revival under Trump, potentially unlocking billions in value. Forecasts from sources like MarketBeat peg a $2.50 price target (up ~67% from current levels), with a “Strong Buy” consensus from 2 analysts. This has sparked short-covering and retail interest.
Broader Market Tailwinds: U.S. stocks are up sharply today on Fed signals for a December rate cut (25 bps), easing borrowing costs for miners. Mining ETFs like COPX are +2–3%, lifting speculative names like NAK. Volume is elevated (14M+ shares average), but note the “price up, volume down” divergence as a caution—could signal weakening momentum if not sustained.

NAK remains highly speculative—it’s a development-stage miner with no revenue and ongoing legal battles. If copper breaks $5/lb or Pebble news drops, it could surge further; otherwise, pullbacks to $1.30 support are possible. For real-time charts or trades, platforms like
Re Northern Dynasty
I asked ChatGPT Why is NAK up 9% today, briefly.
Good question. Here’s a quick rundown of why NAK (Northern Dynasty Minerals) is up ~9% today:
-
Royalty Payment Boost: The company recently received the 5th and final $12 M tranche from its royalty investor, hitting the full $60 M under its royalty agreement. That improves its liquidity significantly. Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd.
-
Regulatory Progress & Legal Strategy: There’s renewed optimism around the Pebble Project (its big Alaska mine) because NAK is pushing hard on two fronts—negotiating with the EPA and pursuing litigation to overturn an existing veto. Stock Titan+1
-
Investor Sentiment: The combined effect of stronger cash position + potential breakthrough on the EPA veto is sparking speculative interest. AInvest+1
Bottom line: The stock is rallying on better funding and renewed confidence that the Pebble Project’s regulatory risk might be easing.

Maybe Ukraine/ Starmer news, if hes even sincere about it. Apparently Zelenski was never their leader, just UK and EU paid puppet. EU still wants war even though everyone knows they would lose claiming they would crack someone else’s bank to pay their pensions but instead they open the door and let their real enemies walk right in and attack the people. Maybe that’s their army that’s supposed to protect them when they run out of the real citizens money and why their trying so hard to take people rights away to make people fear them because they fear the consequences of their stupidity.
Northern Dynasty
Has been going up quietly the last few days. Over 8% today.
It’s still not much, but I wonder if someone knows something about the ongoing consideration/negotiation.
Maddog
Including today, only 3 more trading days before end-of-the-month. So, I’m guessing that the scum want to set things up to “mark” their shorts as low as possible, and 2) As Captain has alluded to:
Last notice day is Nov 26 for the November gold and silver contracts so there are 2 trading days to be reported before first notice. Both contracts are inactive months.
Maddog
Yes, Starmer doing the right thing. Kinda rare …

Re Ukraine/Starmer
That’s great news…at last….I think that has to be the most sensible thing Starmer has ever said…but that is a very, very short list.
