Gold’s tumble might be due to other, more familiar, things. Per Jesse:

jessescrossroadscafe.blogspot.com

The metals got mugged the day before the important December options expiration tomorrow.
Since this is a holiday shortened week the hit occurred a little earlier and harder than one might expect.

But it may not be over yet.

There is still tomorrow to clear out some more punters.

But I did caution several times about this significant option expiration and the traditional manipulation of the metals in their biggest contract month.

So what. Get right, sit tight.

A good chunk of physical changed hands in Hong Kong, where inventories are once again down to the bottom of the barrel.

The Dollar was up marginally, although well off the overnight lows. Well done Wall Street.

Stocks moved a bit higher, led by non-tech and the broader markets.

Biden has announced Janet Yellen as his pick for Treasury Secretary.

For those of you who have inquired, Tony Sanders is still in hospital, now out of critical danger, but not well enough to be mobile. Lack of oxygen remains an issue. This pandemic is serious business.

Stock a fork in Donnie. He is done, despite all the posturing and increasingly clumsy attempts to block and overturn the voting count and certifications. And the fantastical stories of secret strategies spun in the blogosphere and 'lost cause' sound machine. despite the comic legal efforts of his crew.

Like most everything else in politics these days, it's mostly theater, and playing to the crowd, while the oligarchy grows increasingly audacious behind the scenes.

But that's reality show business. While the band plays on.

Have a pleasant evening.

Thanks for posting Ricardo Moreno Escudero of GE- Hitachi, I am all for SMR based on salts or LBR etc.

More recently as of last month, I forwarded a relatively detailed plan for a new unconventional electrical national network for Israel to Dr. Yuval Steinitz for review.
The network is in a specific configuration and fault-tolerant, the SMR part makes with proper storage in hydrogen or based on principle Carnot thermal storage system an all-weather system. Some batteries as a complimentary storage medium for electrical network balancing is added.
I was promised that the Office of the Israel Energy Minister will establish a commission for evaluating my proposal and choosing the right development partners.
As of today, an interesting read and along with my concept of DER national electrical network presented to Min. of Energy of Israel news.marketcap.com

TJ, best example of sentiment driven financial markets - no reason for the rally, COVID 19 restrictions all around but the "sentiment" and lots of cash not spent on expensive outdoor dinners and clothing moves the market with the alluring 30,000 number on the DOW

Conclusion consumerism is way out of the range of sustaining an adequate life and waste of resources abound, including "The Jack" unnecessary plastic toys with little educational value in contrast to chess which development is very positive as it develops long term strategy thinking in any child.
