Going to have to punch up again
That’s OK, we can do that.
In the meantime their precious SM can’t seem to manage much more than a one day bounce that gets sold into the close.
Dollar’s gains have been cut in half in the last couple of hours and rates are slipping, so there’s that.
We’ll see if they can scare some folks out of their pm positions before the weekend.

The news we got here said it was a fire but didn’t mention what caused the fire. Hope people can catch another flight at another air port if there’s one close enough. It’s a little after 0300 here I’m going to go back to sleep. Hope the idiots with the net zero mandates had a flight canceled.
Heathrow Airport closed due to No electricity ……explosion at sub station……Hmmmmmm!!!!
latest is that the back up systems have all been switched to Nut Zero systems, of some kind and they have ALL failed……so now they need to get power from the Grid…..somehow…….Good luck with that.

Yes that’s right.
The avian flu hoax is already here.
It’s a normalization psyop.
There’s always going to be a pandemic if we let them.
When people stop eating the pitchforks will come out.
We are close in this regard.
They think they can control this in Europe and maybe they can.
But there are still too many guns here.
Not funny

Well blow up their tracks. Don’t let them get away with it.

Cap’n, yes it is –
but it is also probably true!
I noticed that with Babylon Bee during COVID too. So often the satire was only a day or two ahead of the truth, it was such a wacky world.
Yeah, the thought police are gaining traction here.

I think we’re probably in pretty good shape. Knock on wood but this is just a pause to catch our breath and reload. ?

I wouldn’t be surprised if Elon finds “agencies” where all that exists is a PO box for the delivery of the gov funding! ![]()

Is it still a buy?
With all that gold and silver coming from England …
… how much is eligible to be bought … and how much is already spoken for by previous leases (etc)?
How much is available?
Nobody knows for sure, but it makes sense that if the US is going to be using its gold reserves at some point in the future, and some of its gold has been leased out, some of the gold coming from the UK will need to be returned.
The question is how much?
The below chart shows that the answer to this question is likely ‘not much considering the big picture’ ;and, we cannot trust any of the data coming from ‘official sources’.

As of the end of February, it looks like eligible is roughly one third of the total 1800 tonnes. And another 600 tonnes more is still arriving.
So it will be interesting to see how all this shakes out in the end.
I think all we can do is watch how prices react to all this.
One thing is for sure … the UK has been severely depleted … that’s for sure … and it’s likely the weak point in the overall formula right now. Don’t be surprised if precious metals sales to the public are banned.
Then look for a short squeeze.
Cheers all

Breaking: India Raids Soros-Backed Offices Linked to the Open Society Foundations in Karnataka
The Indian government raided George Soros-backed offices in Bengaluru on Tuesday.
The Enforcement Directorate raided eight Soros-backed offices linked to the Open Society Foundations (OSF), an organization backed by US billionaire George Soros, along with some linked entities in Bengaluru.
This action stems from allegations of violations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), highlighting the government’s commitment to curbing foreign interference in domestic affairs.
Investigations revealed that between 2020-21 and 2023-24, approximately ₹25 crore (2.9 million) was funneled from Soros’ organizations to various Indian NGOs through complex financial arrangements.

No worries, some corrupt judge will put the kabash on that order.
Great strength in the metals already this am attempting to come back from shenanigans over in London. I was expecting much worse than this right now.
