Al Hadath: Israeli source said an additional round of strikes against Iran seems to be a matter of time. Source added that Iran is intensifying the transfer and fortification of the Natanz nuclear project. Israel does not see a real chance of reaching an agreement between the US and Iran, and that the US wants to end the Iran war with a political agreement or a decisive attack that topples the regime. On further strikes, the Israeli source said they will strike Iranian nuclear facilities again if Iran crosses the red lines, with or without US involvement.

Unbelievable. They have gone full blown totalitarian communist. I wonder when they’ll start burning copies and videos of 1984?
HUI turned at 777 last week, will it happen today again?
edit: oops, I guess not

Yeah it’s totally inexplicable! We’re innocent, we’ve done nothing to deserve this. Sheesh 
Let’s hope it works out this way again

#DXY – Almost every time price has pushed above the upper Bollinger Band, we’ve seen a local top in the dollar shortly after.
Now we’re seeing the same setup again, while RSI is also pushing into its ceiling.
Will this time be any different?
Wow Ipso
80% drop, gee, I wonder why? We’ve used the dollar as a weapon, been involved in forever wars for the last 25 years, and have a corrupt political system that steals from the treasury for personal gain. Not to mention NGO’s that seek to destabilize governments around the world with our leftist LGBTQIA ideology, among other things. Throw in tariffs and you have a winner.
Bessent’s $6 billion doesn’t make a dent.
Maddog – attacking our economy before the midterms would not have been possible if we didn’t start a war with Iran. Our economy would have been booming, oil prices down, and inflation eliminated. Doesn’t matter how much we hate Iran or feared the nuclear boogeyman that has been around since the 90’s,, this was bad timing and a self-inflicted wound by this administration.
All that being said it has all been planned since the beginning of time.
You guys catch this story? Unbelievable! Must have been some skullduggery going on!
The Hormuz Letter
@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: China has taken possession of sensitive US F-35 stealth parts mistakenly diverted to Hong Kong while being shipped from Australia to the US, including a cockpit canopy and a weapons-bay door both coated in radar-absorbing material, and has not returned them, per Bloomberg.
A US-contracted UPS aircraft was carrying the parts from Australia to the US for inspection. The aircraft stopped in South Korea and was routed from there to Hong Kong, with no explanation for either leg.
It comes as Xi arrives in the US today for a state visit with Trump.
Mr Copper
We don’t have info they can get but the attack on Iran seemed to be revenge based for the Oct attack on Israel and on e they start in on something they don’t seem to know when to stop. They are still in the first testament a eye for a eye. Although we had Obama and other dumping Somalis one of the most corrupt countries and a Muslim mafia upon us here in the US. Between the two Id pick the Jewish. Muhammad is nothing but a counterfeit attempted copy of the real prophets and just the opposite of spiritual or the prophets and Jesus. Chasing around desires of the flesh, even children, there is no flesh on the other side but he comes up with 72 girls. You can see the kind of crowd he attracted. No town is safe with them in it. It’s all about control and bullying of women and their rules to suit them while they run around do what they want and nothing said about without accountability. Because it’s coming from below not above. M was a criminal and con artist that could only attract the worst kind of people and then normalized it when nothing normal about it.
Kinross Gold provides operational and return of capital update
TORONTO, Sept. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kinross Gold Corporation (TSX: K; NYSE: KGC) (“Kinross” or the “Company”) today provided an operational, guidance and return of capital update. The Company now expects full-year 2026 and 2027 attributable production to be 2% to 3% below the low end of the previously disclosed guidance, with approximately 1.84 to 1.86 million gold equivalent ounces (“Au eq. oz.”) expected per year. The change to the Company’s 2026 guidance is concentrated at two smaller assets, La Coipa and Round Mountain, and is the result of extreme weather and operational challenges. The balance of the portfolio continues to perform well, led by Paracatu and Tasiast, the Company’s two largest, lowest-cost operations. Kinross expects third-quarter 2026 attributable production of approximately 425,000 Au eq. oz1.
Adjusting the Company’s 2026 cost guidance as a result of the updated production estimates, attributable production cost of sales1, 2 is expected to be approximately $1,420 to $1,460 per Au eq. oz. sold and attributable all-in sustaining cost1, 2 is expected to be approximately $1,850 to $1,900 per Au eq. oz. sold. Total operating and capital costs for the year remain on track despite higher oil prices.
Reflecting its strong cash flow outlook and balance sheet strength, Kinross is increasing its return of capital target from 40% to 50% of free cash flow to shareholders for 2026.

Doesn’t mean they won’t as soon as the SM opens, but maybe, just maybe, we’ll catch a break. Gold trying to hang, silver still weak, bur ya never know…🤔

@puckrin
Wow.
Foreign demand for U.S. debt collapsed 80%!
– T-bill purchases fell from $250.5B to just $49.4B in a year.
– Long-term U.S. debt purchases also fell 46%, from $456B to $246.6B.
That’s a $410B reversal in foreign demand in just one year.
And the U.S. still has to finance record amounts of new debt.
Short-term repositioning? Or a longer term shift?

The new radical leftist Prime Minister in Britain, Andy Burnham, has announced his plans to create a “Ministry of Truth” to control news media and eliminate news or opinions that the government disagrees with.
Mr Copper
Ps Keep a eye on gas and heating oil stocks to help offset costs this winter where you are. Hopefully El Nino will help make it milder. Maybe Chat can zero in on your state and city to get a general idea.
Re the Anti Trump Pro Global Democrat High Oil
I think Trump should tell everybody how he got “forced” into signing off on the Iran War before the mid term elections.
This reminds me of when JFK was elected. He was “forced” to go along with, and take the blame for the Bay of Pigs fiasco attack on Cuba. That attack was “forced” on Ike, the prior president. Who makes these decisions? A global CIA?
He should have insisted on waiting until after the mid term elections. Many years ago I worked with an older Polish man who was in the Polish military, he said the USA is an Israeli colony, and that is what what this situation looks like. And or the United States of Europe.
Mr Copper
That’s right! It will help foreign imports but not ours possibly affecting future economic data. Although we have the possible gas and diesel shortages and cost affecting transportation. No not Chat GPT don’t need it. I just key in a question and volia AI answered it. lol Sure is a time saver it can search data at warp speed.
Goldilocks Re stronger US Dollar
Re part
- Currency Pressure: A stronger U.S. dollar makes dollar-denominated commodities more expensive for international buyers, cooling demand.
I assume that info from ChatGPT? It sugar coats everything. Well it forgot to mention a strong dollar lowers the prices of imports and tends to override the tariffs. So maybe the foreign countries are still in power.
Buygold 6:16
Besides this oil also priced in dollars, or used to be.
- Hawkish Fed Signals: Recent commentary and economic data have reinforced expectations of further monetary tightening or additional rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.
- Elevated Yields: Treasury yields have climbed to multi-year highs as markets price in higher-for-longer interest rates.
- Currency Strength: Higher yields and strong economic indicators have driven the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) to multi-month highs.
- Currency Pressure: A stronger U.S. dollar makes dollar-denominated commodities more expensive for international buyers, cooling demand.
Liquidation/Selling: Tighter financial conditions and shifting rate bets trigger profit-taking and speculative unwinding in metals. ,
- Upcoming economic data releases that could reverse this trend
Opportunity Cost: Gold and silver do not pay interest or dividends; when interest rates and bond yields rise, investors prefer yield-bearing instruments.
SNG is right…. it is all about rates
But the timing is I think because of the Mid Terms…..US rates are rising faster than European rates, which makes no sense, the chances of a debt crisis are way higher in Europe, where they are doing nothing about their debt problems…..
That said the MSM are concentrating on US problems and money is being pulled from US Treasuries, the rise in rates is now hitting the SM….all of which hurts PM’s as the Algo’s have Gold and the SM locked together ……
Until that link gets broken PM’s have a problem, as it looks like an engineered financial panic is being created for the US, to help the Dems in the mid terms.
If the IRGC were to fall, then all bets off….and they are in trouble, the people in Iran have got guns now…..watching Tousi Tv, you can hear serious gunfire…..though that is never reported on the MSM.
and we buckle…
After trying to go flat most of the night, London opened, the SM weakened further, oil jumped, and the dollar and rates moved up. 10 yr. now at 5.135% up 3 bips.
So what do they do with pm’s? Sell them down even harder than everything else of course! The same as it always is. No safety here.
Biodynamic farming
Good place to buy good food – there may be one near you.
Biodynamics is a holistic, ecological, and ethical approach to farming, gardening, food, and nutrition. Biodynamics is rooted in the work of philosopher and scientist Dr. Rudolf Steiner, whose 1924 lectures to farmers opened a new way to integrate scientific understanding with a recognition of spirit in nature.1 Biodynamics has continued to develop and evolve since the 1920s through the collaboration of many farmers and researchers. Around the world, biodynamics is alive in thousands of thriving gardens, farms, vineyards, ranches, and orchards. The principles and practices of biodynamics can be applied anywhere food is grown, with thoughtful adaptation to scale, landscape, climate, and culture.
hi Buygold
People are dropping out of insurance already. It’s like a domino effect, as the prices rise more drop out then the insurance companies lose customers and probably have to pay the un.onsured or under insured coverage because the other person didn’t have it then raise it more plus what Calif is doing.I told my daughter never let go of uninsured but many are because they can’t afford it then vehicles if something happens. She had it on her car but not her bike. Then her husband uses her car didn’t put back the gas and she had to go to school no time to get gas used her bike and get hit winds up on ICU. Again the other person has no insurance. Then they lose their licence. Now my daughters planning on getting another bike. Said there’s a front light that can move up and down or something so drivers can see them. Thing is both times she noticed when the cars moving towards her neither of them were watching the road, they were looking at A passenger in their car.
Armstrong said Yaho is a lose cannon and the neocons on.the inside have a lot to do with it. He said Iran is doing the same thing to us and Ukraine is doing Putin. They , don’t have to win just exist while they use up their resources or hoped would happen to Putin financially and hurt his election but difference is Putin didn’t start it Yahoo got Trump to start it so he gets a pass He hates Iran just like Europe and neocons hates Russia and want their resources. We shouldn’t of been dragged in either of them but politics are infiltrated. Any peace he tries to make will be sabotaged.. He can’t control Yahoo, no one can and per Iran they want a guarantee Isreal won’t attack them. Trump can’t speak for them. and guarantee that less they cut them off of our weapons. Does he really want peace or convinced Iran is a world threat and sponsor of terrorists. They better look in the mirror. Trump’s also trying to help Gaza but as long as Yahoo around that’s gonna be a problem too.
Out framers warned to nose out of world problems. Not to bring it home It’s contagious.
Goldie
Did you see the 10 yr. closed at 5.11%? I agree about stagflation, I think we’re in it now despite what the PMI’s say. Whatever is growing is in a very small segment of the economy. You talked about insurance, not long from now people will be dropping their insurance in favor of food. JMHO.
Also agree, there’s no peace coming. When Trump talks about annihilating Iran, he means it literally. The only way he does that is with nukes, or as you say, smaller scale nukes. I believe if he had the available missiles, drones, weaponry, he’d be lighting up Iran right now, but I think we’re about out.
15 bips is a big move in the bond market, if it continues, something is cracking. Makes me wonder about the recent bank stock weakness.
Buygold et all
This is the video. About 18:20 minutes in. Also that following money bomb testing in white sands in NM moneys passed to test like bunker busting to reach a undergrown network. That smaller scale nukes might be involved. This is not planning on peace. By Oct 5 th
