Silver is not allowed to go too far away from the cost of production (currently calculated at ~$26 – probably higher) … just enough to keep producers in business (and making their debt payments), but not too expensive for the military / industrial complex.
Guess SSR needs silver a lot higher prices … no? A lot of companies do with all-in costs exploding higher. Prices are actually stupid low.
Expect a move towards $4o very soon. – possibly higher well into the $40’s.
Don’t know how long it will stay there because rising commodities should crash stocks into the summer/fall – draining liquidity – not to mention the conniption bullion banks / shorts will be having (and dealing with).
Probably come back down and test the breakout at $33 – 35 into summer / fall.
Cheers

Right the people who instigated this didn’t care about the people. They just wanted their assets.
I copied this from somewhere on this site. Biden’s in it. Fractional land deals lol after what they did to them it is kinda funny. Resources already sold.
Ukrainian legislator explains Kiev regime’s ‘sell-steal-resell’ swindling scheme
According to the statement, “the official reason will be that a deal was made with the United States, but the underlying motive is the redistribution of assets, cloaked as ‘strategic necessity'”
MOSCOW, February 10. /TASS/. Kiev is poised to engage in the country’s customary redistribution of mineral deposit assets under the guise of “strategic necessity,” aiming to grab and resell what has already been sold, opposition-minded Verkhovna Rada member Alexander Dubinsky has said.
“Now, we will witness the typical Ukrainian scheme in action – the act of taking back what has already been sold. Naturally, this will be justified by decisions from the National Security and Defense Council (SNBO). The official reason will be that a deal was made with the United States, but the underlying motive is the redistribution of assets, cloaked as ‘strategic necessity.’ The process is simple: first sell, then take back, and then sell again,” he wrote on his Telegram channel.
Dubinsky noted that President Vladimir Zelensky, on behalf of Daniil Getmantsev, the head of the Verkhovna Rada’s committee on finance, tax, and customs policy, has addressed US President Donald Trump with this offer: “You want access to subsoil resources? Go get them from Hunter Biden,” who served on the board of directors of Burisma Holdings, Ukraine’s largest gas producer, from 2014 to 2019.
The Ukrainian legislator is curious how patient the United States will be in this situation.
“I can only imagine that at this moment, some White House staffer responsible for Ukrainian affairs spilled coffee on hearing this and exclaimed: ‘What the hell is going on?'” he added.
On February 10, Getmantsev announced that he was working on a proposal addressed to the National Security and Defense Council to audit all mineral deposits and reclaim them for the public. He pointed out that over the past 30 years, all permits for commercially valuable deposits had been distributed to “respected” individuals.
Earlier, The New York Post reported that President Donald Trump intended to negotiate a $500-million deal with Ukraine to secure access to rare earth metals and gas in exchange for security guarantees as part of any potential peace settlement.

Agree ?
And they can play that game for a long time until the buying pressure is significantly higher. We just haven’t hit that point yet and so many people have been flushed out forever over the years.
When the banks and hedge funds finally decide to play, we’ll see how well they can control them or whether they flip to buy mode.
Almost like they use the shares to quell any excitement in the metals.
Anyhoo, I think we get a make up day tomorrow, maybe even with the metals flat or down a little.
Eventually, the shares will have their day, but probably not until we see higher silver prices. JMHO.

Several things have happened to disqualify volume as having meaning, but here are a couple of them.
If two supercomputers want to control the price of something, all they have to do is sell to each other, or one buy the shares or commodity , and the other short the same shares or commodity, thus negating the other super computer’s buy but creating two trades every time that transaction is made. They can do this continuously, making huge volume while the shares or commodity go nowhere.
There was risk in doing this, called naked shorting if they did not possess the shares they were shorting, but IMO that was solved by the recent events happening with the on-line brokers offering “no commission trades”. My speculation is that the shares or commodity in the possession of the on-line brokers have been loaned or leased or rented to the owners of the supercomputers so they can claim to own them so they can make these buy and short trades legally.
Also, in margin accounts, if you are not using your margin, your on-line broker can lease that available margin to the owners of the super computers (say BlackRock and Vanguard and StateStreet) to cover the buy/short trades being made.
Difficult to explain but IMO that is what has evolved these last two decades and why volume is no longer and indicator of interest, and why the markets no longer make sense. All FWIW from Silverngold, but DYODD!

Often takes some time…but if it holds the buy signal will be good.

When the people in Ukraine find out what the real story is…..they will rightly go ape ……they have been used as cannon fodder, to weaken Russia and so the Globalists can enrich them selves…..sold as a moral crusade……it is one of the most evil acts ever.
I would put them all stark bollock naked, in the main square of Kyiv and let the Ukrainians do as they see fit.

Did you see this. Hamas offering a olive branch for peace. Agreed to leave the Gaza strip hand it to Palestinians.

Then s new one popped up. Trump released the ban on bombs to Isreal. I hope they don’t mess up any chance for peace.

I’m not used to posting this much but I talked to a person from there when I heard Biden was paying the people pensions, schools and other stuff but held back on believing all those people are going to die for nothing. They believed they could win. Long story short too late I know but he said if Zelenski crosses them or money is missing meant for the war they’ll kill him. He just might be better off it they vote him out.

Yeah it seems like it was taken over probably with promises of permanent power like their doing, threatening to shut down your choices. They need bigger numbers and let them know they don’t make their decisions. Their fired. They need to be investigated and their hiring someone else. There needs to be a group that goes after Davos and kick them out of their bunker in Switzerland too. Or make it very uncomfortable for them to go there and if they get repercussions they do it to them too by peaceful protesting. They’re not wanted anywhere, can only buy people or want to be like them. They have this illusion they are untouchables that can go anywhere they want not because their liked but think their so above everybody else, have their security and cars waiting for them hopefully with Chinese spys in them unlike the citizens who can’t even be safe walking down the street to the store or going to a park. People shouldn’t forget to warn their kids who not to talk to, stay away far from them or the computer.

No volume in the shares. Pretty weird day. They flushed folks out pretty well on Friday and burned some fingers.
I’m not sure what to make of it to be honest.

Very Careful!! I know more than I ever imagined or wanted to know it just happened that way. They knew enough not to mention names or anything that would make me a target but still you know less you can make yourself disappear your not safe anywhere if they target you. The person who told me ” the rest of the story’ was set up too and at least they didn’t kill him like the others or hopefully not but sent me a message before they came for him. Then you know how I am with computers suddenly my computer stopped working. The address to his family was on it. I did get a message to his daughter to tell her to watch over his health and tell him not to take any vaccines. That was before swine flu or Covid. The computer fixer said the hard drive was destroyed had to get a new one. I don’t think it was a coincidence I don’t know for sure.

Yet again we see PM shares intra day tracking the Stock Mkt…Gold is within pennies of the days Hi’s, having made a stunning recovery……the news could not be more bullish, as either there is no/not a lot of Gold in Fort Knox and no matter what the outcome whatever Gold there is, it is going to be revalued, many times higher…and to really add to their woes, DOGE is likely to come knockin, to see why they have never delivered any certificates against their shorts…which could be many times the float…. Yet the mad hedgies let their Algo’s keep shorting the shares…because they worked for a long time….
Who else is selling today, certainly no bugs, they only want more, maybe some dumb mine, on the back side of the moon, with no news…no one else is….yet still the funds short a super thin mkt….there is only one way this ends…the shorts get taken off on a stretcher, in a body bag.

Did they erase his videos or documentation like they do? I’m not sure what’s going on with him but seems like he is a political prisoner the way their treating him. When they isolate him like that they want total control and isolate him from any support system even family and one sided propaganda. A lone person going up against elites that will buy people is suicide. Just some people are willing to do it anyways. It just makes the elitist look more guilty. Seems like they want to drag it on and on and don’t know if they have any higher courts or supreme courts to go through and want to make sure he has no money to do it.
We saw they treated Canadians and Australians that was atrocious and the ones behind it need to be hunted down rabid wolves. I don’t remember reading too much what happened in UK or Europe but probably wasn’t pleasant there either.
It was everywhere and seems this was a global bioweapon attack and coup against the citizens everywhere. Not just between the NIH and Wuhan.

Europe was taken over by the EU…which itself was always a plot against the people to create a super state….But the people who created it knew they could never tell the people what they had planned, as they would never vote for it.
But now the Commission, which really runs the EU, has been taken over by Davos Globalists, so it is even further away from the -people…the vast majority do not want any of what is being rammed down their throats…..but all traditional parties have been taken over, so only new ones like AfD in Germ,any, or Reform in UK are beginning to be the most popular…hence all this talk of cancelling elections, if the wrong party wins……so long as fair elections take place, then the Davos crew will be swept away, as elections roll through the various countries……..
But we may yet see elections cancelled, parties shut down…as that is the only way they can stay at the top table.

Check out what they have been doing to a great lawyer, ever since he started fighting the covid lies.
Unfortunately, most have forgotten him. He helped me to see the pandemic for what it was!
This has been a real travesty of justice!

Years ago I talked to a DEA retired at the time who while working under cover in South America amongst the cartels. One of the riskiest jobs you could ever have if they found you out. Your on your own. He found the CIA was in on it.
He said that at that time anyways we’re building up and training cartels under the guise of freedom’s fighters hired by American business I remember my departed ex told me who I talked out of going there to train weapons which they were paid for which at the time I didn’t want anything to do with even though I was shooting guns since 6 yrs starting with non recoil bird shots BBs etc. He’d buy me guns but I didn’t want them, since I wasn’t hunting anymore or around kids, then anyways. Hed laugh told me it’s not about duck hunting. Well according to this DEA they weren’t really freedom fighters but turned into death squads. They they wanted war with Mexico not targeting the average citizen which he didn’t want that, to take it over. I suppose something like a bunch of big bad cartels causing havoc everywhere they enabled would justify that.

… don’t say you were not warned.
The Purge of the Deep State and the Road to Dictatorship
On a more positive note … the move down in silver Friday could be a breakout back-test if it can close over $33 today … which it’s trying to do … that would be very bullish and portend a move to 40ish.
For gold … if da boyz have their thinking caps on … we could see 40k … no kidding.
Gold revaluation? Go big or go home. Which would Donald J Trump choose?
Great article … well thought out … assuming a revaluation happens.
Everything is crossed.
Cheers all

Not purchasing gold but oil IF it’s pegged.
I don’t know how Europe’s constitution goes but they don’t seem to have civil rights groups and lawyers to push back everytime some jerk comes up with some oppressive tactic, rule or demand like some crooked umpire calling the wrong shots against the other team to rig the game in another’s favor or agenda and they have no one over them to stop their violations and even replace them. That violence should come last but seems all they have. Where are their civil rights and constitution lawyers. Without them and free speech they might as well be communist.
That reminds me we need to shut down funding to the ACLU. They are no longer working for us but the deep state.
