Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts - He Dwelleth In This Land

Gold and Silver had a nice rally today, with gold stopping around the 1190 area and silver making it to the 16 handle midpoint.

Look at the gold chart and you will see the only thing that really counts. Gold must break the downtrend, and take out the potential bear flag. Silver will follow, or it could possibly take the lead, but it cannot do well without gold one way or the other.

The G20 is this weekend. Let's see if they announce anything.

I have included the economic calendar for next week.

Have a pleasant weekend.

"When the morning skies grow red,
and over us their radiance shed
Thou, O Lord, appeareth in their light
when the alps glow bright with splendor,
pray to God, to Him surrender
for you feel and understand
that He dwelleth in this land.

In the sunset Thou art night
and beyond the starry sky
Thou, O loving father, ever near,
when to Heaven we are departing
joy and bliss Thou'lt be imparting
for we feel and understand
that Thou dwellest in this land.

When dark clouds enshroud the hills
and gray mist the valley fills
yet Thou art not hidden from thy sons
pierce the gloom in which we cower
with Thy sunshine's cleansing power
then we'll feel and understand
that God dwelleth in this land."

SP 500 and NDX Futures Daily Charts - Sitting On Top of the World

"It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged. The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes. 'Woe unto the world because of offenses; for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh.'"

Abraham Lincoln

The stock market has reached nosebleed heights.

I do not know if the wiseguys can keep it going through Thanksgiving.

But I hear that only 20% of fund managers are beating their benchmarks which is incredible given this bubble market we are seeing.

This stock market makes my skin crawl.

Have a pleasant weekend.

Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts - La Douleur Exquise du Monde

Today was simply more of the same.

The Anglo-American banking cartel based on the Dollar has become the heartache of the world.

Have a pleasant evening.

SP 500 and NDX Futures Daily Charts

Stocks were ranging all over the place today, finishing up with a little to the upside.

There are rumours of a deal in the oil patch, Halliburton to acquire Baker-Hughes.

Nordstrom beat but lowered guidance and JC Penney missed.

Applied Materials lowered guidance and sold off a bit after hours. Applied Mat is considered a tech bellwether.

There is no broadly based organic recovery. There are only illusions and appearances based on accounting fraud, control frauds, and money printing.

Have a pleasant evening.

 

Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts - Agents of Misfortune

"Do not fear those who can kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; rather, fear Him who can destroy both soul and body of the accursed."

Matt 10:28

There was intraday commentary about The Day Money Dies here.

I wrote about it primarily because it was getting a lot of play, and raising some concerns and questions.  It seems to have caught the attention of many.

 And as you know I am following what the G20 does this weekend in Brisbane.  I do not know about rules for bail-ins, but there are some who think that the BRICS may have something to say of interest at a forum which is not dominated by the US and UK.

I have approached many such meetings with anticipation in the last few years. And mostly nothing of consequences occurs.

The usual suspects were caught rigging the markets again.  You may read about JPM and the agents of misfortune, and most likely US government policy when their interests coincide, here.

Gold and silver were flat in largely lackluster trade.

There was no real delivery movement on the Comex report. The warehouses saw minor withdrawals of bullion.

A friend keeps discussing the 'delta of delivery' with me.

By this he means the movement of gold from West to East, which is a big change from prior states in the precious metals market, particularly gold. 

This is a trend that it would be foolish not to note, and watch. So be advised. 

Let's wait to see what the G20 have to say before we go jumping to any conclusions.  But I do think that caution is advisable overall.  The fundamental things apply, as time goes by.

"For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, but to lose his soul?"

Have a pleasant evening.

SP 500 and NDX Futures Daily Charts - NASDAQ Closes at 14 Year High

There was not much in the way of economic news today.

There was some concern about the weakness out of Europe.

The tech heavy NASDAQ managed to close at a 14 year high today. Huzzah!

After the bell CSCO beat expected earning by a penny on a one percent increase in revenue.  What a surprise.

Have a pleasant evening.
