Anyone with a brain…

…knew that Joe and his son Biden (the smartest man Joe has ever known, per the Cabbage Patch doll) were so phucking corrupt, and that they were in deep with UKRAINE.  Remember Cabbage Patch braggin about how he told Ukraine they wouldn’t get the billion unless they fired the “uncorruptable” existing state prosecutor…cause he was looking into Burisma holdings….where conveniently his retarded crack smoking son had gotten a board position paying him a million dollars a year…I’m sure the braniac knows about resource mining…if you define resources as cocaine in a hookers butt crack….totally sure there was no other candidates better qualified….omg.

When someone boldly lies to your face and expects you to take it as the gospel, you are either dealing with a retard or a psychopath…..react accordingly.

Good summary of Operation Round River….accusing all republicans of being russian assets and the Bidens and all democrats being angels….

Interesting Take On Past Gold Swaps

Robert Lambourne suggests the Treasury may confiscate ETF Gold at some point.  While central banks are much less involved in Silver, if they do set a precedent with Gold, Silver being strategic and scarce, wouldn’t be surprised if it too got confiscated, under the right circumstances?                                      https://goldseek.com/article/robert-lambourne-are-bis-swaps-being-used-hide-double-counting-etf-gold

English Village Will Have Six Migrant Men To Every Woman

A quiet North Yorkshire village of roughly 600 people is set to be flooded with around 1,200 single adult male asylum seekers at the nearby disused RAF Linton-on-Ouse base. Local women would be outnumbered six to one.

The base sits beside a primary school and nursery, has only four buses a day into York, and already faces severe shortages of water, sewage capacity and electricity. Maskell has written to border security and asylum minister Anna Turley and is due to meet Home Office officials this month.

The Great Decline Of Britain

Britain’s streets are rotting in plain sight. Road signs coated in years of grime, pavements choked with weeds, blocked drains, overflowing bins and potholes have become everyday features of life in what was once a first-world country.

Gold & Silver – Keys To Next Week

It appears that yesterday’s correction only carried over into the early morning hours.  They both bottomed around 2AM this morning, with Gold reaching around $4310 and Silver $63.50.  I don’t see further downside.  The keys to next week providing increasingly higher prices, will be when Gold takes out $4450, and Silver exceeds $67.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I would love to see those targets reached today, but that is probably asking a bit much.  Monday is more likely.

Silver chart 30 min

After breaking the uptrend line from Aug 3rd yesterday, it’s held support level 63.5 and broke the mini down channel it started yesterday.  Let’s see if it can post a higher low than the 63.50 level.

German police are unwilling to protect citizens from climate activists again.

Climate activists l.et air out of SUV tyres so people cannot drive home or to work, which is incredibly disturbing. They cannot drive off and must call a service, which costs money; people miss appointments or are late to work, with consequences

German police say it is not a criminal act, since releasing air does not essentially fake the car, completely ignoring the damages people incur due to the car not able to move.

“I support those girls who are being raped.”

This Spanish girl is angry and lays it all out on the thousands of migrants in Ceuta:

– The government pretends all is normal, but it’s not even close. It’s an insane situation.
– People with kids have already left
– Women can’t walk alone and are afraid
– Feminists are quiet and do not support the women of Ceuta
– Girls are being raped and harassed

Diesel Crack Spread Explodes To Record As Wall Street Warns Of Refined-Products “Perfect Storm”

Wall Street Warns About “Perfect Storm” Diesel Crunch: 

  • Goldman’s Daan Struyven Shows Global Diesel Exports Crashing
  • Citi’s Anthony Yuen Warns: Global Diesel Inventories “Below 5YR Minimum
  • BofA’s Francisco Blanch Warns: “Diesel’s Perfect Summer Storm” Unfolding 
  • Jefferies’ Sam Burwell Warns: Hormuz Shock “Manifesting Itself In Cracks, Not Crude” 

Brent briefly fell below $80 a barrel last week as prospects improved for an Iran-Oman deal to reopen the maritime chokepoint, before rebounding toward $90 as negotiations stalled this week.

By lunchtime Thursday, the front-month US diesel crack spread (HOCL1 on the Terminal) had exceeded the $97 level reached in mid-March, when the US-Iran conflict was just three weeks old, and was closing in on $100. That signals extreme tightness in diesel.

Current Take

My current take is, that after the brilliant run that started onMonday Aug. 3, today’s correction was overdue and healthy.  I believe it will carry over into tomorrow.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                The two leaders I discussed in that post, NEM and HL have done well.  Newmont particularly so, HL not as much, yet.  If we get a big decline tomorrow, use it to add to positions.  Not only was Aug. 3rd, “IT”, there is a lot more to come, after this brief correction plays out.

Yup, and yup again

OK SO:

James Comey is still free.

Tim Walz is still free.

Fauci is still free.

Letitia James – still free.

Adam Schiff – still free.

Nancy Pelosi still free.

J6 “Committee” still free.

Ashley Babbit’s killer still free.

FBI J6 infiltrators still free.

Clintons still free.

Obama still free.

Epstein pedophiles – still free.

Autopen administration – still free.

And Ilhan Omar is not only still free – we can’t even deport her traitorous ass either.

And on and on and on and on…

So I guess my question is: Where did we ever get the idea that “no one is above the law”?

The importance of picking a good solid PM company and sticking with it

I picked up 100,000 shares of SLW.TO for an ACB of 1.25CAD around 2004-5
Rode it to July 2010, cashed out at roughly 16CAD.
Yes, it was a 12.8 bagger as they say.
Thought I did well in 6 years.

Sadly I watched it rise to 49CAD at it’s high in 2011.
That would have been a 39 bagger.
In hindsight, lightening the load as it was rising would have been a better strategy as no one will sell it the very top and no one knows what the price will be.

That same stock has been rebranded as WPM.TO which is now 183CAD. Would have been a 146 bagger over 22 years!

I did buy back a few years ago and hope not to repeat the same mistake. It’s a 4 bagger so far for me but I no longer have as many shares.

Lightening up on the way up to lock in profit but let the rest run until it doesn’t.

UK PM Wants Every Area In Britain To House Migrants

That means middle-class families and leafy villages must now accept large numbers of asylum seekers so the poorest areas are no longer the only ones carrying the load.

This approach obviously does nothing to stop the root of the problem, the sheer number of migrants washing up in boats. It simply advertises better accommodation to the next wave of illegal arrivals.

All Of Iran’s Weapons Today Are Domestic, Missile Production Exceeds Usage: IRGC Official

Claims that the country still has approximately 950 industrial towns where defense production is actively underway

Mohammad Reza Naqdi, Senior Advisor to the IRGC Commander-in-Chief, has been featured in state media as claiming that the production rate of ballistic missiles exceeds their operational launch rate, which comes on the heels of Tehran saying that it used the ceasefire with the US – which stretched from April into the summer months – to boost its weapons arsenal.

Naqdi asserted in a state television broadcast this week: “We are currently producing, and this process is unending.” Naqdi warned further that “The enemy should not assume that Iran’s missile stockpiles will run out one day.”

Private Credit’s Problems Just Got Real

For most of this year, the private credit story I’ve written about (and warned about) has been about investors trying to get their money out. Now the loans themselves appear to be cracking.

The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that defaults across several of the largest publicly traded private credit funds have climbed to their highest levels in at least five years, while watchlists of troubled borrowers are simultaneously expanding and investor returns are deteriorating. In other words, the private credit mess I’ve been documenting since last year is entering what could be a far more important phase.

Perhaps the most interesting part of the Journal’s reporting is not simply that defaults are rising. It’s when they’re rising. The U.S. economy has not fallen into some catastrophic recession. Economic activity remains relatively robust, yet private credit stress is already increasing.
