Meanwhile, the undervaluation bomb that is mining companies continues to tick tick tick. In some ways I actually don't mind they lag with a pammy cup right leaning upward bend somehow. In the go go days of the past two long term rallies fast and furious though amazing might have not been the healthiest per se. In the end, earnings will really start telling the tale for operating mines while the rest falls into place aka reserves. Short of that, any value person with 1/4 of a brain can throw a dart and find dividends, price earnings and all the rest that cry for attention, and yet, basically still ignored. I'm patient. Meanwhile so many favors are being offered.. low interest, basically low and lower energy costs and all that some talking heads were bashing the miners just two years ago including the now Ronnie Stoferle (really lost his mojo by turning into a market timer vs. a fundamentalist).. but never mind. If that shit head paulson starts a new gold fund please please please, someone shoot that mother fucker.

really? Gold in the Bank of England vault is trading at a discount to the wider market as fears over potential Trump tariffs spark a scramble for bullion, resulting in weeks-long lines to withdraw metal. Dealers are said to be quoting prices for gold at the BOE at discounts of more than $5 an ounce below spot in London. The size of the divergence is extremely unusual, with gold at the BOE usually trading in lockstep with prices in the rest of the London market. Previous premiums and discounts—driven by central bank trading activity—have generally been no more than a few tens of cents per ounce, traders said. The disconnect comes as traders worldwide rush to get gold to the US ahead of the potential imposition of tariffs and to capture premium prices. Trump hasn’t targeted precious metals specifically as he ratchets up his trade war, but dealers are worried they could be included in blanket tariffs that he’s threatened. bloomberg

Beneath the headlines, such as they are, the Blitzkrieg in the USA, has literally stopped time LOL. One example. At the university where the boss works... All the current funding in the department of engineering that's fed related, has come to a sudden and full stop including the rescinding of grants that were already approved though not yet delivered. gov backed loans for incoming grad students, PHd's and such... stopped. That's just engineering. Scale this out across everything in this country that's touched by the federal government, you have a massive massive infrastructure suddenly brought to a complete halt. That might be just fine in the end, or maybe it won't be just fine at all. WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder if that fat pig has scaled back his secret service runs to Micky D's? I bet Micky supplies the bitch for free given all the advertising he created for them, but I digress. Hire your own security team bitch! and get your own fucking armoured car bitch! And little Baron can fucking walk to school by himself... or with Mommie, obviously.

I'm waiting to see if FDIC deposit insurance gets done away with. So much noise, might not even know when it happens. Fucking exploding landmines everywhere on the risk reward capital preservation landscape. 12 months is all they got before the angry mobs who were with them, turn against them. or, they don't. the madness of German crowds circa 1933 until the end, might be a good template. I bought three cases of popcorn today and froze a boat load of butter. (yes, butter freezes quite well).
