They may want war…but with the new toys, such as these Hypersonic missiles, it makes zero sense.
Though the globalists maybe hoping they can provoke Vlad enough, to make the 1st move, as their Covid scheme is unraveling…but he ain’t that dumb.
But he won’t back down either, as he wants energy prices to be super strong….look at oil today with the SM falling apart.

Sure seems like the neocons want war with Russia, even if it’s someone else’s people dying.
Think of the giant cudgel we could hammer Russia with if they went to war in Ukraine … and all the money certain contractors could make.
I don’t see much in it for Russia unless Ukraine is abusing Russian speakers and it’s forced on them.
I’m just hoping cooler heads prevail and the warmongers don’t get their way.
Mining and other stuff
Bob Moriarty: We’re About To Enter The Golden Age Of Mining
IPSO – i voted ‘don’t know’
but with Putin pulling out the staff of his embassy there , I would now think ‘YES’ is more likely .
Putting NATO into the Ukraine would be foolhardy – particularly since the West promised not to make former USSR states become NATO sites after taking USSR apart .
…and the UN is useless – just a globalist puppet show .
Re: Vote in the Poll Vote in the Poll
Another question needs to be added: “Will the US further its interference in Ukraine forcing a Russian response.”
Democrats digging their hole deeper
Michigan Democrats tell parents they are NOT ‘clients’ of public schools, that children should be taught ‘what society needs them to know’ – and that taxpayers should stay out of education

Why is Silver up…looking around, must be someone covering large shorts…as nothing else helps it.
Why is silver rallying?
USD is strong again today, rates screaming higher.
Doesn’t add up. Not complaining….

Alamos Gold 2021 Production Rises, Hitting Targets — Commodity Comment
By Adriano Marchese
Canadian gold producer Alamos Gold Inc. said it increased its gold production in 2021 over the prior year, meeting its guidance for the year. The company said it expects its pace of production growth to slow and costs to rise significantly in the first half of 2022 before falling in 2023.
On production:
“Full-year sales totaled 457,517 ounces of gold at an average realized price of $1,800 per ounce for record revenues of $824 million,” the company said.
“Met 2021 annual production guidance: Production of 457,200 ounces of gold in 2021 was in line with revised production guidance and represented a 7% increase from 2020.”

yeah, this reminds me alot of how the dot.com bubble burst 21 years ago.
No clue if Bitcoin will go down with tech, be a hedge against inflation, or is the Tulip bubble.

California weighing proposal that could double its taxes
California lawmakers unveiled a new bill at the beginning of the year that would establish a single-payer health care system – an ambitious plan that would be funded by nearly doubling the state’s already-high taxes.
A new analysis from the Tax Foundation, a non-partisan group that generally advocates for lower taxes, found that the proposed constitutional amendment would increase taxes by roughly $12,250 per household in order to fund the first-of-its-kind health care system. In all, the tax increases are designed to raise an additional $163 billion per year, which is more than California raised in total tax revenue any year before the pandemic.

Scum footprint all over $1820. Stairs up for gold.
Siver rising with every other commodity.
Gold has to join the fray at some point right?
scum pre butcher rally….
the lamp posts await.
and….
rates on the short end of the curve rising quickly, 10 yr. above 1.82% on its way to 2%. USD being dragged higher a bit, but looks like it wants to go lower.
and…lo and behold pn’s are spiking higher…what the heck??
Fasten your seatbelts
It appears that the SM correction is game on.
PM’s acting like pm’s although silver is flat at least.
If this is the long awaited selloff in the SM, we know that eventually pm’s will outperform after being sold in the early stages of the pullback. Even Bitcoin is being sold again, and I’ve heard a few pundits say that Bitcoin is the ultimate hedge against inflation – don’t think so – acting more like a tech stock.
Fed meets next week so there’s alot of room to sell prior to the meeting. We’ll see if a couple 1000 pt. losses in the SM wakes them up – doubtful.
Is this a repeat of 2001?
Looks like rates are the story tdy and ystdy in Europe, Plus China’s economy is falling apart.
They have managed to stop the rise so far, this AM…..but the SM’s are not happy campers, as soon as rates harden a touch here….PM’s of course get walloped no matter ….
