Re Germany…yr dead right about those elections…..we’ll have to see what they get upto in Germany, needless to say they cannot let Germany escape the EU, as it is game over, when they do…..What is making them panic, is that normally because of the voting system, proportional representation, it has been impossible for one party to ever achieve an outright majority, ie over 50 %, so they have been able to cobble together a governmment, even like the current one, which is middle road right, along with far left a combination that should never exist and it is proving to be a disaster, for obvious reasons.
This coming election is not for the Federal government, only a State one…but what is making them crap themselves is the AfD is polling mid 40 % plus……then because if you get over 5% you get some seats,,,so the above 50 % is really above mid 40’s %…….up until now they have made coalitions and refused to work with the AfD….the danger is the momentum will keep going and I reckon before long the AfD will get 60 % plus or more…..game over for European globalism and the EU…..hence their WW III dream.
Time to reverse this bad boy completely?
Love the way we’re thriving even as the SM sort of fizzles.
The late day action lately has been phenomenal into the close.
I think that’s a pretty nice turn
Gold was down almost $50 at one point, silver down $1.50. Don’t know if they’ll let us finish the day in the black in the metals, they don’t like us to have full reversals, but surely better than it looked this am.
I mentioned I thought the selling was manufactured, the shares weren’t buying it.
Hopefully we can close strong on a day when plat and pall are down for the count.
Seems Bessent is going to get those rates down come hell or high water. I wouldn’t bet against him.
One of the mag 10 … ugly

IBM’s current CEO Arvind Krishna (from India) became CEO in April 2020.
He immediately started firing white employees. He increased the H1B imports from India, plus he shifted massive numbers of jobs to India.
IBM almost immediately lost the US patent 1st place position.

The selling in the metals
looks like brute force, almost artificial, as if there is an intended target or sense of urgency to it. A little like the old waterfall selling but with more resistance.
The shares are yawning, as if they know it’s fake.
Bizarro. 😳
GFI comes though
They needed it. Probably one of the poorest performing large caps.

Is there really a chance AFD could win?
It seems like every time there is an election that seems to favor an anti-EU party, the results don’t come as expected. The once proud Germans have been neutered since WWII. Like most of Europe, it’s really sad to see them overrun with invaders and wrecked by the EU. It’s truly amazing how we in the west have allowed ourselves to be ruled by such scum. All of us. Here in the states, we have little excuse since we still have our weapons. I can see that ending in a few years, as they start to send robots door-to-door to confiscate them.
Silver struggling again this am. If it’s not going forward, it’s definitely going to go backward. PM shares don’t look bad premarket so maybe silver will mount a comeback. Rates are sliding, dollar slowly losing steam.
Germany and the EU
Thank you for your interest.
Germany is now the biggest EU member and big enough to go alone.
They are also very attached to Russia who are asset rich – gas etc. It would make sense for them to work together.
Something to keep n eye on – not that mainstream media will say anything about it.
The UK did not join the Euro which was smart but selling half the UK gold reserve was folly.
When I was at school I learnt that the biggest wins.

The Globalists long ago captured the EU commission and most European countries, particularly Germany…to me the AfD are a product of Germany waking up , their policies are entirely logical and sane …….but and this is a huge but….Germany bankrolled the EU and in particular the Euro.
So if Germany were to even say they were thinking of leaving the Euro, the entire project would start to collapse, in short the EU and the Euro is Germany…Then we get into the nitty gritty. All the sovereign bonds issued by the other members, which the markets price as if having a German guarantee. Then we have the ECB’s own bonds, which it was never meant to be allowed to issue , a demand the Bundesbank demanded, as a price for joining the Euro…and don’t even mention the Target 2 system, a cats cradle of financial insanity, supposedly underwritten by Germany, which has allowed dead beat borrowers to carry right on, spending like eighth armed sailors on shore leave. All of this and way, way more is at risk….just as rates harden globally.
The EU always was built on quicksand, a humongous folly, that was always going to collapse at some point…and now as people realise life is shiite, getting worse and for many getting really bad, they are at last realising the EU and all the blathering ‘effwit proponents, at it’s heart, are the source of their woes, they are turning to parties that realise the problem and offer solutions…..and all the idiots that created the horror can do, is shout stop …. right wing racist.
PS the above unwinding is one huge reason, they need to start WW III, with Russia…that is how mad they really are.

OceanaGold to Buy Ausgold for $549M, Adding Katanning Gold Project
OceanaGold agreed to acquire Ausgold for $549 million, adding the Katanning Gold Project in Western Australia. Ausgold shareholders will mainly receive OceanaGold shares, with a cash option capped at $137 million; closing is expected in December 2026.
Katanning is projected to produce more than 100,000 ounces of gold annually for an initial 10-year mine life, with first production targeted for 2029. OceanaGold plans further development work through 2027, a technical report and final investment decision in 2028, and says permitting and early works are progressing.
The deal expands OceanaGold’s growth pipeline and exploration footprint, including more than 3,000 square kilometers of underexplored land. The company said it has $655 million in cash and no debt, and expects the acquisition to proceed without delaying its Waihi North development or Macraes mine-life extension efforts

You have to control your own currency to be considered a sovereign nation. And your borders. And migration. Looks like she’s onto something here. Le Pen will be next. Hopefully Reform and Remove can sort out some differences to make sure that Britain is in the frame too.
Weidel threatens to leave Euro land
My understanding is that in October 1990, when East and West Germany came back together one condition was that they join the Euro currency.
At that time the Deutsche mark was very strong and was being used in countries like Yugoslavia where the currency was unstable,
The gold holdings of Germany/France etc were kept outside the Euro and still are not being shared.
Germany, France and Italy have large gold holdings.
So if Germany did now leave leave Euroland the Deutsche mark would again be the strongest currency and possibly be used in other currencies.
Quite a serious problem, I thought it might pop up one day.
If you know more please let me know. (Or correct me)
Seems like today was kind of a win
Most shares held up OK. Silver is the key I guess. Just a pause or a bigger pullback?
Whoops …

So the reset will be painful?
“To give you an idea of the scale of this bubble; if the stock market were to crash back to long-term averages, it would be equivalent to a $300,000 loss per U.S. household.”
“Put simply: you cannot re-engineer human behavior to accommodate an IPO roadmap – even as OpenAI reportedly lays the groundwork for a public offering with valuations floated as high as $1 trillion.”
The real point being that, according to the article in my previous post, the IPO needs to be valued at a trillion to raise enough funds to pay for existing commitments coming due in the next couple of years.
{edit} Aaaaand another!
There’ve been a couple of comparisons to canal and railway expansion bubbles – but these bubbles were hugely expansionary for the economies involved, leading to much more trade and frequently much lower prices, to the extent that significant deflation occurred.
This will stir things up…..Weidel threatens to leave Euro !!!!!!
