States are concerned about both general inflation and housing cost that have skyrocketed. Arizona senator asked when are housing cost going down. Powell told him he can’t control that, it’s demand. Arizona said that  interest in loans are 6 % of these inflated housing costs. When are interest rates going down. Paul said that will drive costs up. Arizona said it will free up the buying and selling and maybe help lower costs. Powell said nothing basically. Powell didn’t mind leaving the interest rates to nothing while housing was skyrocketing and wall street buying up property’s or him buying mortgaged backed securities.

Things can change but doesn’t look like Powell is interested in lowering interest rates even after all the damage his low forever interest rates.

One really interesting thing he said or responded to. A senator asked him when is the ink gonna run out. He asked to clarify. What happened when no one wants to buy the treasures. He said that never occured to him.  Seriously! Sounded a bit careless to me.

Tucker visited posh European Alps and discovered how Ukrainians are spending US tax dollars…

This is the seventh straight week up…with supposedly no news….that is asking a hell of a lot….

Always have to be on the lookout for those Fed minefields. Doesn’t look like he hurt us too much, and he’s wise not to criticize Trumps tariffs.

I see the dollar is weaker even as rates are up some – 3 bips.

Doubtful we’ll come back to positive though, we never do after a flush. Shares don’t look too bad midday. We’ll see how things close.

Bringing up stability. Fed claims they just make the transactions in selling the decisions weren’t his.

They brought up crypto and stable coins. Policy discussions.

It isn’t too helpful if too many people have the 3K target.

Powell is up.

We never come back from an early morning flush, can we change that?

Lol Did David Roth shorten his last name.

5:57 I hope to think so too. He studied economics in college and did well for himself in business and worked for it so I hope to think he is not naive about SM or bonds. I learned a new thing about bonds  by Ferrett although it should of been obvious once I realized it so I better stay away from them till I learn more.

Silver is disappointing but it just seems that the longer they hold it down, the bigger the breakout will be.

That’s the hope anyway.

I haven’t heard anything about whether players on the Crimex are standing for delivery or not.

Last Christmas I handed my son a bag with new design silver eagles, old design eagles and a bunch of other silver coins and collectibles like the Koalas and rolls of 90 % silver quarters for his wife and son case they ever need barter where I just used to give my grandson a eagle here and there but he didn’t know to stay quiet about them a kids asking him if they could have one so then on his mom was his keeper.  Told him case something happens you have some of them. Gave him a AU swiss franc told him there going around 400 now. Then he’s trying to give me money buying stuff like a new car battery when the franc went to 500 he’s trying to give me money now here about 600 and I was looking for a item and he said he’ll buy it. Cracks me up he don’t get it. It didn’t cost me that much got it long before. My daughter in law knows the local farmers market vendors well enough if she ever needs to barter at some point.  I just gave him the franc so stays aware of something happens and buys more himself.

Other than owning stocks buying and selling as long as the economy is holding out and gold and silver stays with or ahead of inflation. The longer you don’t need it or ever the better.

I just hope these sellers know what they’re doing. I bet some busy dealers you could wait outside with a sign will pay spot.

He may have been referring to the idea that if loads of fraud is found, then running the government will be much cheaper, as it will not need to finance such a large debt pile…..as many projects/depts will close down.

They are working to a plan called Three, Three’s….3 % growth, getting budget deficit below 3 % and increasing oil production by 3 million barrels

Seems right that the local coin dealers would be looking at more sellers, especially in gold.

I noticed that golddealer.com is offering close to 2% under spot for gold eagles, while they’re offering spot for silver.

The dealers are still charging a hefty premium for silver though, which is odd.

The general public here in the US doesn’t seem to be involved in any major way just yet. I suspect most are out of money. I always thought the wealthier among us would come in and sweep out the inventory of these local dealers, but we’re not there yet either.

Maybe the Chinese public will ultimately do the heavy lifting.

I’ll say this though, with all the hoopla surrounding this latest move, it’s still been very orderly. We’ve not seen a 2% up move in gold that I can remember.

Looks like we have to revisit and battle for $2900, while silver still struggles with the $32 level. As exciting as the move in the large cap shares has been, we still haven’t pressed the most recent highs in the HUI despite gold up another $200.

Just like the Demonrats and their judges, the manipulating scum still makes their presence known.

Not what I expected to see this am after the strength last night.

They’ve got silver pinned down again, with gold only up a few bucks. Nothing horrible but was hoping we’d see that big run to $3K today.

Have to wait a little longer.

You both made good points. I think Trump is different than a real estate only. For one thing what do real estate agents like look for? Location Location Location Like beach front Hawaii which really messed up the locals with housing inflation. Or Fink resources in Ukraine which could also burden people of modest income.

Trump’s a builder who likes to improve the location and it’s economy. However like Ferrett says they’ve been there for 6000 years and have their own customs. If he were to build for the benefit of the people of Gaza he would have to consult with them. Their idea or architecture is much different than ours. Now if he’s thinking like the Hotels they put up along the beaches in Oahu after what Isreal did to their city’s which I’m sure many of their people are still buried under that concrete that would be rather arrogant. They would be destroyed. If they built them for the people of Gaza that might be different. They would have to have their own power, their own water maybe desalination plants, shipping ports, agriculture, and everything that goes with city’s and borders. Then if he wanted a few tourist hotels although tourist hotels?  If he’s talking about just putting them somewhere else forget it.

He did open conversation that perhaps these neighboring countries should consider and get together and find a solution. These are people in dire need of help and all I can see is they are being used as cannon fodder on both sides and they call them a nuisance.

Ferrett, I see thank you.

According to YT’s Yankee Stacking. They are offering sellers less than melt. So it would be a good time to go haggle in coin shops. Bring in a few bars, when he says look, we got all these sellers, I have to shoot low on cash prices for the metals. Say great, put the bars in your pockets and turn the tables on him and say, since you have so many sellers, ditch some of the bars off on me at a good price.

It departs from Union Station in downtown. Winter Park is doing a huge development expansion soon, the City of Denver owns Winter Park. They’re sending a new gondola down to Frasier. I-70 is a mess. The two tunnel bores are leaking at the divide and are icier than ever this year. They’re also working on a huge construction project straitening out the bends down in Clear Creek. This is gold country. One of the biggest gold miners in CO looks like a gravel pit at the bottom of Floyd Hill and call themselves a “gravel pit” and they smartly sell the overburden (sand, gravel, road base etc) and keep the glitter. The highway traffic is so bad that I elected to not get a pass for the first time in 25 years living here, but the train is excellent. We just brokered a new deal with BNSF for track rights.

I ordered a few 2025 silver eagles on eBay today for upcoming graduation gifts.  About $41 ea. including shipping is the going price there.  I’m guessing they will be much higher come graduation time in a few months.

is that bullets fly and they don’t care. So even if I wanted to protect myself, random bullets are a threat and not worth it. If I was Jewish, I’d move the hell out of that crap. Too many religious morons, stuck in legalism. It’s never changing. Let’s hope they all kill each other.
