Hey bring your camel over to Wallace Idaho in Sept for the Silver Summit..Hugo Salinas Price is keynote speaker..just got an e-mail from David Bond…he even said the police ain’t lookin for me anymore…..so I can come….[it’s a long story about goin 90 miles an hour down the Bunker Hill Mine road trying to retrieve my camera]
But it is a short hop for ya//// Shauna Hillman is runnin things……
Your most welcome… As Ment always said Who’s TA? Well I say, Who’s Dire Warnings or Rosy PM scenarios.. Nenner says good to go for pm’s into Feb/Mar 2010…Really Equiz, might just as well throw some spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks for all the guessing to be had with these corrupt markets.. I no longer pay attention because for quite some time I have felt that the PM’s will go up when and only when it suits them….. And don’t ask me who them is cuz I don’t know that either lol
BTW, rest assured the political cauldron of rot is here in good Ol Canader too if you look at the who’s who ..It’s sickening and well entrenched..
Right now, all I’m worrying about is getting my camel down to Belize 
Cheers from the mainland and thanks be that the heat wave has finally lifted around here.. I’ve never been so happy as to anticipate the cooler weather and much needed rain.
down if and when the big Ure-predicted plunges come in the main stock market. If the big Ure plunges come I expect many holders of PM stocks will have to dump them to cover margin calls, so whether one believes Ure’s crystal ball or not I am always in the camp of expecting a big drop in the value of PM stock ( because holders will be forced by margin calls to sell off) if there is a big drop in the main stock market. Thanks for the posting. Equiz. p.s. thank you so much for giving us links this morning about the rot associated with “The family”, the topic of Bill Maher’s interview. The information in your link certainly makes it easy for an atheist Canadian like me to draw some conclusions about the system of governance in the U.S. of America.
i have been saying yes to pot for years…we talk about all the bucks the government is spending…but i don’t hear any on screaming about the 25 billion drained form the usa via drug running…talk about green shoots…grow it….sell it…and tax it…let all the folks out of prison with pot drug raps…it a no brainier…i thought it most interesting glenn was in favor..the main stream media are starting to discuss the issue..first time that i know of…..”they” are starting to turn public opinion pro pot…i have been saying legalize weed for 20 years..
americans are also up tight about talking about death and dieing…the health care profession was ripping the insurance companies and medicare off for years..in 1990 the gov and the insurance companies set the foot down…the health care profession was forcing live into anything that would live..the interns and residents in teach hospitals call it flogging..thank god we have hospice care now…trust me when your time comes you want hospice care…but when you see it in writing you go crazy…before hospice no one was allowed to die in a nursing home…we would get these poor 90 year old folks rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night..and put on a vent..no one was allowed to die with dignity..i was there..and it was inhumane
but the healthcare system made big big bucks …with no shame
My ultimate goal is to make Zero Hedge a self-sustaining source of unbiased information, which is not at the mercy of corporate sponsorships or blessings from Wall Street or Washington D.C. Luckily, the currently deplorable condition of mainstream media, which has only so many years to exist in its current format, will undoubtedly make the growth of blogs such as Zero Hedge a pull rather than a push process

Prices are going up because the dollar is going down. That is all ye know and all ye need to know.
And when the real economists look back on this period from the future, they will say, “You know, in the first part of the 21st century the markets were in a 20 year rise in commodity prices, and seven years into it, there was a 3 month (Sept. to Dec. 2008) pull back. This commodity price decline, although very small, scared the dickens out of the people of that day. Many of them were shouting, ‘Great Recession.’ Many others were shouting ‘Second Great Depression.’ Yet here in 2020, on the new, much larger scale charts, we have to draw to accommodate $14,000 gold and a 5,000 CRB index, those tiny declines are barely noticeable.”
us americans ain’t up tight on weed….we grow it all over more than anywhere else!

Obama administration withholds data on clunkers
WASHINGTON – The Obama administration is refusing to quickly release government records on its “cash-for-clunkers” rebate program that would substantiate — or undercut — White House claims of the program’s success, even as the president presses the Senate for a quick vote for $2 billion to boost car sales.
The Transportation Department said it will provide the data as soon as possible but did not specify a time frame or promise release of the data before the Senate votes whether to spend $2 billion more on the program.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said Sunday the government would release electronic records about the program, and President Barack Obama has pledged greater transparency for his administration. But the Transportation Department, which has collected details on about 157,000 rebate requests, won’t release sales data that dealers provided showing how much U.S. car manufacturers are benefiting from the $1 billion initially pumped into the program.
The Associated Press has sought release of the data since last week. Rae Tyson, spokesman for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said the agency will provide the data requested as soon as possible.
DOT officials already have received electronic details from car dealers of each trade-in transaction. The agency receives regular analyses of the sales data, producing helpful talking points for LaHood, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs and other officials to use when urging more funding.
LaHood said in an interview Sunday he would make the electronic records available. “I can’t think of any reason why we wouldn’t do it,” he said.
LaHood, the program’s chief salesman, has pitched the rebates as good for America, good for car buyers, good for the environment, good for the economy. But it’s difficult to determine whether the administration is overselling the claim without seeing what’s being sold, what’s being traded in and where the cars are being sold.
LaHood, for example, promotes the fact that the Ford Focus so far is at the top of the list of new cars purchased under the program. But the limited information released so far shows most buyers are not picking Ford, Chrysler or General Motors vehicles, and six of the top 10 vehicles purchased are Honda, Toyota and Hyundai.
LaHood has called the popular rebates to car buyers “the lifeline that will bring back the automobile industry in America.” He and other advocates are citing program data to promote passage of another $2 billion for the incentives — claiming dealers sold cars that are 61 percent more fuel efficient than trade-ins.
LaHood also said this week that even if buyers aren’t choosing cars made by U.S. automobile manufacturers, many of the Honda, Toyota and Hyundai cars sold were made in those companies’ American plants.
But there’s no way to verify his claims without access to DOT’s data.
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has argued against quick approval of $2 billion for the program because little is known about the first round of $3,500 and $4,500 rebates.
“We don’t have the results of the first $1 billion,” McConnell spokesman Don Stewart said. “You don’t have them. We don’t have them. DOT doesn’t have all of it. We’d hate to make a mistake on something like that.”
Time is the only issue, as far as I’m concerned..
The latest formation is starting to look like an ascending triangle wirh bullish implications..formed since March ‘09

* Second-quarter profit down 77 percent
* Results hit by derivatives, forex losses (In U.S. dollars, unless noted)
TORONTO, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Yamana Gold (YRI.TO) said on Tuesday its second-quarter profit fell 77 percent as its results were hit by lower copper and silver prices, a $34.1 million unrealized loss on derivatives and a foreign exchange loss of $28.5 million.
The Canadian gold producer earned $9.6 million, or 1 cent a share, in the quarter ended June 30. That compared with a profit of $42.1 million, or 6 cents a share, in the year-before period.
Stripping out foreign exchange and derivatives losses, adjusted profit was 13 cents a share, Yamana said.
Analysts polled by Reuters had expected, on average, a profit of 9 cents a share before exceptional items.
Yamana, which has operations in Mexico, and Central and South America, produced 289,574 gold equivalent ounces during the quarter, a figure that includes mined silver converted to equivalent gold ounces. This was up 12.5 percent from the year before.
During the latest quarter, Yamana agreed to sell three of its non-core mines in Brazil and Honduras to exploration company Aura Minerals (ORA.TO) for about $200 million.
The company expects to produce 1.2 million gold equivalent ounces this year.

Did any of you pay atention to the wise one ….A click of mouse and money is gone to far away place ,,,,lets have a poll,…Question: Can you make a call or click a mouse and have a safe place for your money to go to.[in what form is your own choice] .outside the walls?.. Yes or NO….. Time is running quite thin here……please get busy……
now I see another decent market technician mention February 2010 which is certainly a delta turning point and something Charles Nenner is warning us about.
Should be a very interesting few months. Listening to talk radio running errands it sounds like the right thinks the Obama administration is falling apart.
Fractal Gold Report for August 4, 2009
By David Nichols
dnichols@fractalpublishing.com
Even though gold was up a bit on Monday, it didn’t really have such a great a day considering the significant breakdown in the dollar index.
This is a seriously bearish development on the dollar, as prices are breaking down to fresh lows while the daily fractal dimension is starting a new trend with a full load of energy. As I discussed last week, it looks clear that the dollar will now drop down to test $74, and from there we’ll have to see if there is enough negativity to support a longer-lasting dollar rally.
I think there’s a good chance the dollar will stabilize at $74, but by then it won’t really matter so much for gold, as the stampede up to $1,420 or $1,580 will be well underway.
But for now, this dollar breakdown should have a large spillover effect on gold, pushing it up to $990 and beyond. This actually looks like a perfect set-up for a large 64 to 72 trading day growth spurt, which should extend out towards a top around October 10th, which coincides with the seasonal growth pattern in gold that I highlighted in the last report.
A 64-day growth pattern is a fractal of the big 64-month growth pattern, and for whatever reason — and I don’t know why this happens, only that it can be readily observed — growth patterns in financial markets have a marked tendency to grow over 64 periods like this.
Another interesting tid-bit on 64 trading days is that it is equal to 89 calendar days, which is an important number in the Fibonacci sequence. It is also ¾ of the way to the most important number in the timing of market moves, which is 86.
We can take a quick look back at the last major hyper-growth phase in gold, from Aug 2007 to March 2008. The first growth spurt took about 60 trading days — just about 86 calendar days — and after (trading) Day 86 gold went on a tear for 66 trading days.
So there were essentially 2 major growth cycles in a row during that spurt, which carried gold up to the all-time high. It’s also intriguing to note that this last hyper-growth phase did much of its work during this same seasonally-strong period for gold.
If we see a similar “double-whammy” growth pattern now, gold should extend up to the $1,420 or $1,580 target zone by mid-February 2010.
Getting back to the short-term, one of the reasons for gold’s relatively mild upside day is the 150-minute chart, as the fractal dimension is down in the low 30s.
It looks like gold needs a full 24 hours of sideways trading before it will be ready to charge up to $990. Ideally we’ll get a brief dip down to $945 to fully re-energize the short-term pattern, and a slingshot off that area will lead directly to the definitive breakout over $960, and the quick trip to $990.
