Gold is right up against the big inverse head and shoulders neckline around 1440.
I am struggling to see a breakout here, but it is possible. The last big neckline breakout took place around a failed option expiration gambit.
Maybe Jamie is too preoccupied with the largest unsecured, non-syndicated bank loan every (to AT&T as a bridge loan to buy T-Mobile) to worry about Blythe's capital needs.
I think this AT&T acquisition, and its very rich price, is indicative of what is wrong with the US economy. Money is being generated and held by fewer hands who continue to use it to consolidate their economic and political power.
But these things ebb and flow. The mighty sow their own destruction in their excesses and their overreach. The reign godless as if triumphant, until they fall back upon their knees. It can be a curse or a blessing, to see the true face of that which you serve.
I take profits, holding bullion but trading paper, and retire to the kitchen for the evening trade.
The appetites and customers seem unchanging, but there is always something a little different on the menu if you look carefully. And over long periods of time, tastes and fashions will change back and forth, but the basic ingredients remain the same.
