The dollar just spiked higher, and the shares and SM were dropped on their heads, but the metals are moving higher. WTF was that?

SM reversed in seconds.

edit: Seems to be stabilizing now, but the metals are strengthening as are the shares.

I guess maybe going back to fossil fuel cars is going to raise demand for converters.

Cattle markets have backed away from all time highs but don’t look for cheap beef in the foreseeable future. Nobody I know is keeping replacement heifers. It may take two or three years for grass pastures to come back after the droughts. The pork producers should have no problem replacing beef demand if the chickens don’t all die. If the avian flu spreads like it might, roadkill may start looking attractive. I’m really happy my wife’s farm has lots of wild turkeys and hogs.

After I reached geezerhood, I noticed body parts started deteriorating. Now it’s gall bladder. I understand the fix is minor surgery. I’m waiting for the ultrasound appointment call now. If the pain gets much worse, emergency room, here I come.

Just a figure of speech. No restrictions against higher prices, and you are not ignorant at all my friend. Maybe Gold will overshoot $3000 to 3100.

Forgive my ignorance. How do you get air above $2846 and $3000 for prices that we’ve never seen before?

If you were a fund, why would you want to show holding anything pm in your fund around month end?

That kind of DEI is everywhere because they don’t have the knowledge or sills to help solve the problem or direct you to the correct place or procedure.

A friend warned me a hacker is getting into Pay Pal accounts and she found a bunch of charges on her credit cards. A hacker got into one account and got in hers and likely others. They wouldn’t let her close her Pay Pal account. Part of conversation. She writes me in larger Fonts when I mentioned the lights I can’t adjust on my phone that either go dark or right. She usually writes in perfect sentences with no typos on computer she doesn’t trust mobile phones but was probably typing fast.

Re yr licence…..I bet when you called, no-one was in the office, they were all working from home….I regularly hear dogs barking in the background, when calling big Co’s……

I’m sure they were all grown up affirmative action babies. After going to the DMV after so many years, and seeing it with my own eyes, no diversity, just minorities, I have to assume all our gov’ts are loaded with them. Plenty of big businesses also are loaded with them.

I think this one covers it.

“We don’t want it screw em!”

No poll response selected the option to use force.

I went to the DMV in September to renew my boat trailer Registration so I can sell it. They were practically all black woman and black security guards. The black lady gives me a registration that expires in Dec?? I paid for three months?

Then I get home and I noticed its a Non transferable reg. So before it expired I got stuff in the mail to renew it, so I did, and now paid twice. When I renewed I wrote on the paper work,,,”I need a transferrable or a title. No luck.

So I go to DMV and tell them what I need, they look on the computer and it says its “Pending” they don’t know why so give me the DMV phone number to call. I tried that, they are too busy can’t get thru.

So I email the Complaint site saying. ……

“”Re my 1990 boat trailer. It was always a transferable registration. In Sept I went to register it, and the next day I noticed it was NON transferable.

So on renewal at the end of December, again, I got a NON transferable. I went to the local DMV today and they told me it was “pending” and told me I had to contact Albany by phone.

I tried the phone 4 5 times and I could not thru. Please, I need a transferable registration so I can sell the boat motor and Trailer. I paid twice and I got nothing that is useful to me.””

Their response:

Thank you for contacting us. In response to your inquiry, Our record shows your transferable registration was issued 1/29/25. You should receive it 1-2 weeks from that date.

Then I read the story below. A big sob story. Now I know what Trump meant re hire by “Merritt” from now on. Not because they are black males and females. Fire them all.

The Human Cost of Trump Firing All Federal DEI Workers

Ipso,

The poll missed the most obvious selection: ‘None of the above’. Reported advocacy from Greenlanders to NOT join the US is 85% under any circumstances. Watchyagonnado, bomb and invade them?

Dollar creeping back up. Will be interesting to see how the metals finish, no taking on the first selling of the day. Hopefully we’ll see some short covering in the shares toward the close. Volume in shares in many cases already surpasses avg. daily volume. Finally, some real buying in this war-torn sector.

HUI 320 is a minor target and shouldn’t be a problem, some shares continuing to make new 52-week highs.

Spot gold breached $2800. Is this the start of a real rally?

There is nothing but air between $2,846 and $3,000, the next stop.

Idiocy like that is historical!

I saw today that some legislator idiot wants to sell the US gold reserve to buy BTC … for the “Bitcoin Reserve.” Probably some baksheesh involved. IMO

That may prove to be more than a bit embarrassing ……

Being not one of the “genius” group I don’t feel qualified to answer that! and also Time will Tell!

Re Mining vs AI…does that mean there are loads of little morons and one gigantic genius !!!!

Even NEM and ABX are up today.

SM starting to fade. Can we still go up?

Even some of the juniors are moving. Go figure.

Eco data shows GDP soaring. 4.2% vs estimates of 3.1% – dollar action and rates slipping does not compute.

Silver ripping. Gold locked at up 1%. Shares strong.

If nothing else, it will be an interesting open.

Go silver! May the shortage prognosticators be right for the first time in history!
