Should the US blockade be suspended before Iran's nuclear program is addressed?

All makes sense to me.

We should drop small arms instead of bombs, a few anti tank weapons. Let the Iranian people do it themselves!

Word is they are not just going to let the Pentagon do whatever they want this time.
I don’t know what that means … nobody does … including the Pentagon.
Yes … interesting times.

Are we blessed or cursed to live in these times? I guess we’ll find out! 
“WW3” I think everyone is a little anxious about what might happen … especially those living in the ME! Are the Chinese and Russian ships still in the area?
That’s it … sell gold and buy the crap … America is saved.
They are constantly scheming.
It doesn’t work anymore.

PS Does WWIII start this weekend?
I wonder if people in this country are beginning to understand we are slaves on this land to unelected powers that don’t even live here.

Gotta like this action! Gold knocked down jumps right back. 🙂

Forget I said anything
Crazy swings. Thought we were done 5 minutes ago.

Did this cause the spike down in gold?
… so the shares and ETF’s will not be held back by the specs next week … might even have a half decent close once contracts finish trading this afternoon.
Don’t be surprised with the wild swings out of nowhere.
Crazy buggers

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.
Mornin all
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.
Cheers
