I’d guess it’s the same banks that were covering were the ones that did the dumping.

I don’t know that the size of the dump was super huge, they just had to dump a good amount all at one time in a few key spots to get other jittery longs to join the dump.

There must have been heart attacks on the floor of the Crimex this am. 🙂

we are tracking the dollar and things started to turn up when it turned down.

Oil is up 3.4% over $65 now. Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto space is getting crushed. Bitcoin down 6.6%, almost $6K

Dollar starting to move back up again…

Where did you get the info that CDE was going to do a reverse split? Do you have a link for that? Thanks

Agree with your analysis……..but who in the world would be dumping all of those contracts? I can’t believe that CTA end of the month adjustments ( I posted about that earlier) would be anywhere near the number of contracts that must have been dumped….

I think they’re not done yet. I’m not gonna get it a guessing game with them or chase them. Just pick my stop targets and buy targets. I hope anyways. They’re full of tricks.

I wanted out of CDE except left 20 shares so I know when they have the reverse split and if any name change. Looks like Mr C is gonna hold through it maybe A 1.4 something RS can’t remember exactly the but have not yet the few times I held had a good experience with a reverse split. I probably could of moved that money to GGN go hold since they not only hold miners but energy and treasuries too. They have good management and not pressured as a growth stock.

Option traders could do okay but could lose too. I don’t have the energy for that drama, I prefer peace, but they can make fast money and make those shares pay more than buying them. But when younger they think okay now I have more money to trade and can get reckless as the market can change and the shorts can play the same kinda tricks on them too.

could be the Tether gold news

on the Gold Royalty Co side if got you some extra $$$ they have a couple of copper royalties that are  going to be paying some big cash in Q1

Copper royalty from Dundee’s silver mine in  Bosnia and the new one they just got in Brazil
In December 2025, Gold Royalty Corp. (NYSE American: GROY) announced and subsequently completed the acquisition of an existing royalty on the producing Pedra Branca copper and gold mine in Brazil. 

To me it looks like Tether is going to buy Gold Royalty CO  …..GROY

So SLV back down $2.50 now. But I’ve noticed that the silver shares stabilized and haven’t really moved back down with it.

I remember Sinclair talking about the craziness in the 80’s and the wild swings in gold.

If we finish at these levels, this is barely a love tap.

Captain is right. Again, Shanghai’s pm fix was $135.61. They can’t stay $20 under without creating some problems.

I think they used this to cover a massive amount of contracts. They need to get out of that crap before March rolls around.

Unbelievable.

Wow, never seen anything like this. How many contracts had to be covered?

Shanghai!

… is trading at $134 plus …

China Silver Price today: Trends, premiums and Market Insights

That’s still a $20 gap even with the recovery in Western spot.

This cannot last.

Chuckle

That’s the purpose of raids like this … to create volatility to keep people away … allowing them to run articles like this … been that way forever … the headline says it all … shock and awe.

 Gold Crash! Down $3.4 Trillion as Silver Sinks 12% from New Record Highs

I’ve tried to get into a habit of selling my shares before the Fed meetings. Even yesterday, a lot of the shares underperformed the metals. Probably have another shaky day tomorrow, maybe into Monday am, then get back on track.

That being said, we’ve come back nicely from the lows and there was some money to be made in the shares this am if you were nimble. I didn’t try to mess with it, but I’m sure there were some traders that made some quick fiat.

Dey so scarewy. Ooooow

A flood of paper!

Just imagine what vol they must have used to hit everything simultaneously……

Month-End Adjustments by Commodity Trading Advisors

Overview of Adjustments

Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs) often make adjustments at the end of the month. These adjustments can be influenced by various factors, including fund inflows and outflows, which tend to peak around this time.

MOM-TOM Effect

CTAs experience a phenomenon known as the MOM-TOM effect, where trading activity and price movements are significantly impacted during the turn of the month. Research indicates that a large portion of cumulative returns for CTAs occurs during the last few trading days of the month. This is attributed to net inflows or outflows that require CTAs to adjust their positions.

Types of Adjustments

• Position Rebalancing: CTAs may rebalance their portfolios to align with new market conditions or investor demands.
• Risk Management: Adjustments are made to manage risk, especially if there are significant market movements or volatility.
• Liquidity Considerations: CTAs may also adjust their positions based on liquidity needs, particularly if they anticipate large withdrawals or deposits.

… can’t have gold and silver finishing the week/month strong … see them crashing now … we can do that anytime we want … don’t pay attention to that traitor Powell … he’s on his way out anyway.

Buy bonds … chuckle

Let them sell the shares they always run to them run off. The train just might leave them running after it eventually. I just feel bad for the guys who ran after the chasing up the prices this morning then smacked right into the back of the train A minute later.

You .might have to re read that last post. I’m signing off for now.

Let me count the ways?  Dollar up a tiny bit and probably temporary posts Fed announcement. Tech got hit and silver is also a industrial but we know in this case there is still a shortage. Less they expect a crash and recession in which case PMs will recover And do well during that time. Are the tariffs settled? Is Iran settled?  Is this a temp stock reaction. Never the less there are stocks still with A upside potential and others just hit their first targets with more to come.

Earnings yet to come. I hope they’re good.

agreed…re never see…….but this is being done while millions more watch……..if there is no news, then many will wonder just why such smashes are allowed…plus I think the admin want prices up.

So they may get called out…..

They can pursue their fiat. I’ll keep my phyzz, thank you very much.

IMHO – they still have a problem with Shanghai.
