All of a sudden, we’re looking pretty good. Metals anyway, and it looks like it happened after the Crimex open??
Shares still need to step up again in front of a weak market though.
War is looking likely, maybe this weekend. Maybe that’s why the jump this am.

….last vent of the day ( I’m sorry). I’m losing any shred of respect that I may have for ZH when they continue to pump out bearish PM stories ( just makes me think that they’re helping GS to cover any metal shorts they may have).

You have to remember these asset managers are scum … and paid to maintain the status quo … where this is tape painting in order to affect perception and keep people out of the sector.
That’s why it only stops when there is a crash in the bubble de jour and they are fighting for survival.
This will pass once tech is taken down … it’s coming.

NEM’s stock reaction this morning, doesn’t completely surprise me. I feel like they could have beaten their quarterly earnings number by 100% ( instead of the actual 25%), and the stock would still be down….
Have to control the mindset that PM stocks are BAD INVESTMENTS!!!

until about 45 minutes ago, and they’ve come in to steal a lot of the gains. PM shares in premarket were strong but now rolling over with NEM leading the charge down 4% – nice reward for crushing earnings. Then again, they deserve it for raising their dividend a penny.
SM, rates, dollar, oil all flat. Nothing to see here.

Re yr 22.55
‘They’ really do think that everything we have is theirs, as are we…..A while back there was a governmental fiscal crisis in Cyprus, they passed a law that allowed them to take, I forget the amount from anyone deposits, who had more than a certain amount…..like say u had 100,000, they could take 10,000 !!! and they did !!!!!
I was late paying a local tax in France a few yrs back….so they took the tax from my bank account direct and charged me to do it !!!!!!

Be nice if it was for the last time.
Ipso – agree. Let’s hope the metals continue to move higher and the shares get stronger.

Earnings have been pretty good on the most part, which they should be considering the metals prices but it doesn’t look like they are the “magic bullet” to cure our ills, at least so far.

Personal property grab.
I posted the other day about how they let a Chinese national fugitive who got in illegally during Biden, a bioterrorist got in southern California only to start up another in Las Vegas and then rented out that house to temp renters who were getting deathly sick and where people fly in from all over the world even from China. Was the intention to start plandemics? This time it’s not covered up except MSM . Are they expecting something to happen? Sounds rather vague on the excuses to confiscate peoples property or destroy it. What are they expecting?
In southern California they’re trying to steal the property of the ones who lost theirs in the fire that thanks to Newscum didn’t have enough water to fight it, to put up housing units instead.

Absolutely OBSCENE! Hawaii legislature codifies unconstitutional measures as declared by Governor:

This is just how ‘Deep Blue’ the ocean is out here! Any attempts to enforce such draconian measures out here in the jungles will be met with Second Amendment high speed lead opposition, I’m sure.

Mr Copper, okay if that’s the way you feel.
I looked into the status of the merger before considering buying back additional shares. I noticed some insider selling and believe the merger may take some time to finalize. Given the current selling activity verses the possibility that gold and silver phyzz charts could lag behind stocks due to demand —similar to the period before 2008 but different reasons —I have decided to wait. It appears there is an effort to manage price because of industrial demand vs supply.
Additionally, the reports below the insider selling details mention possible difficulties with the merger. The company plans to continue hedging, which may limit potential future profits to protect against further issues.

Hi thanks for the info. I looked it up here too and a few insiders were selling from 7/sh to 15/sh. its 24/sh today. I’ve owned them for a long time and have 7800 shares and I’m up 100% or up $93,778 so I have plenty of the house’s money so I’ll keep holding it until things change.
This site shows insider sales until Nov 10th. Scroll all the way down.

That seems to be a fair amount of insider selling.
What I find interesting is that that Edgar report comes out the same day as the sales ( February 19??).
And according to my Yahoo Stocks page, the low in CDE today was $22.51??

they beat by a country mile. Surprised they’re not jumping more AH. OTOH, did I read that right? They bumped their dividend by a penny?
They are on pace to make $10 a share and pay out a buck in dividends? That divi should be at least $5, I think it would help their share price enormously.

Trump order pushes glyphosate production; Roundup chemical hated by MAHA
President Donald Trump invoked the Defense Production Act to promote the production of phosphorus and glyphosate, a commonly used herbicide.
Glyphosate, also marketed as Roundup, is a preeminent weedkiller in the U.S. agricultural space.
Supporters of the Make America Healthy Again movement have fought against glyphosate’s use, arguing it is harmful to human health.

Haven’t seen the complete release of quarterly earnings, but did see that they beat quarterly earnings ( $2.048 expected, $2.52 actual). Free cash flow for 2025 was a record $7.3 billion, and they increased their dividend (.26 from .25).
Stock is up roughly $1.00 in after hours….

Why did UK make the choice to allow so many Muslim immigrants into the country? It’s really strange and I feel like the powers that be love shuffling all these morons around the world when really Muslim countries should be opening their doors and welcoming these people in, because they definitely don’t want to assimilate or be any part of Western society, so I’d like to tell them to GTFO! I think the sympathizing Communist Democratic Party of fools in this country just wants to let all these clowns in. I don’t wanna hear a muzzie prayer being chanted on loud speakers in New York City, get out!

No -one wants a war, least of all between the US , China and Russia…..if that was truly likely the price of Gold would be flying higher, as would Oil.
Plus the people of Iran are desperate to throw the Regime out.
