The Great Silver Mystery...REVEALED!  |
| Let me start off by saying that what I am going to postulate should not in any way be considered fact...because I am not in possession of proof. I am merely postulating on where all the mystery silver comes from to be sold on the physical silver market.
Since the early 2000's almost every serious silver analyst has been pounding the table that there is no above ground silver available and it is the "buy of a lifetime".Sunday, August 9, 2020 |

| Stock Market Volatility Attributed to 'Shenanigans' |
| Back in January, I discussed the likelihood that global equity markets were approaching simultaneous tipping points beyond which legions upon legions of GenX-ers and Millennials would be thrown to the wolves by failing to recognize the financial mania engulfing them. I alluded to it being "Time for the Beast to Exhale," and within a few days, my volatility trade (UVXY) exploded to the upside as the "beast," better known as the global stock market ascent, finally exhaled and fell 3,300 Dow JonesFriday, February 23, 2018 |

| ECB minutes highlight policymakers' fears over currency wars |
| FRANKFURT, Germany -- The extent of European officials' concerns over the weakness of the dollar was laid bare on Thursday in a set of European Central Bank accounts that highlighted fears that the U.S. administration was deliberately trying to engage in currency wars.
The accounts of the ECB's January monetary policy vote also reveal that the governing council's hawks pushed for a change in the bank's communications, saying economic conditions were now strong enough to drop a commitment to boosThursday, February 22, 2018 |

| Raising Rates Reflect Bigger Debt Not Faster Growth |
| While investors are justifiably focused on what may be the opening crescendo of a long overdue sell-off in stocks, there is not, as of yet, as feverish a discussion of the parallel sell-offs in bonds and the U.S. dollar, which have been underway for at least a year and a half in bonds and 14 months for the dollar. I contend that this should be widely understood as the root causes of the jittery Dow, and are ultimately far more important. A continued decline in the dollar and bonds holds the poteMonday, February 5, 2018 |

| U.S. Treasury Steve Mnuchin Advocates Weak Dollar Policy |
| Last week U.S. treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin actually admitted what most precious metals holders have known for a long time. In particular, he actually stated that at least in the short-term, he feels a weaker dollar is good for the U.S.
Apparently the days of at least pretending to adhere to a strong dollar policy are over. Of course those who have been watching the Federal Reserve and all of its credit creation over the past few years have been well aware. Yet to hear the treasury secretaryThursday, February 1, 2018 |

| Gold Upleg Breaking Out |
| Gold’s strong upleg accelerated this week, powering to major new
breakout highs. Speculators rushed to buy gold futures following
surprising weak-dollar comments from the US Treasury Secretary,
which hit the US dollar hard. That boosted gold to critical
technical levels that should really intensify the shift back to
bullish psychology. This mounting gold breakout confirms gold’s
bull market is very much alive and well.

| GOLD PRICES hit new 17-month highs against the Dollar above $1360 per ounce at the start of London dealing on Thursday, rising as the US currency extended its slump after President Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary said he welcomed a "weak Dollar".

| Mnuchin comment surprises markets, turns dollar decline into 'one-way bet' |
| Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's comment that a weak dollar is good for the country accelerated a decline in the currency and fed fears in a market already speculating that White House may make the dollar less attractive for the longer term. ...
Mnuchin's comments echo statements by President Donald Trump, who famously helped turn a market trend of a stronger dollar last January when he said, prior to his inauguration, that the dollar was "too strong" and that U.S. companies can't compete becWednesday, January 24, 2018 |

| Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross took issue today with media characterizations that the United States is departing from its historically strong dollar policy.
Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin's remarks at a news conference at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland should not be interpreted as a call for a weaker U.S. currency, Ross told CNBC.
Earlier today Mnuchin said, "Obviously, a weaker dollar is good for us as it relates to trade and opportunities," but he added that the short-term vaWednesday, January 24, 2018 |

| JP Morgan, at least according to the daily Comex warehouse report,
added over half a million ozs of silver to its “historic” stash of

It would be even more interesting to see an actual independent

| The Daily Market Report: Gold Continues to Trend Higher, Near 1-Year Highs |
| USAGOLD/Peter Grant/09-07-17
Gold continues to trend higher, reaching 1349.51, its highest level in nearly a year. The peak from July of last year at 1375.15 defines the next major level of resistance.
The yellow metal continues to be driven by a weak dollar and a host of political and geopolitical uncertainties. While the imminent concern about the debt ceiling has apparently been deferred for several months, make no mistake, this is nothing more than a very short kick of the can.

Gold continues to consolidate the recent push to 5-month highs. Similarly, silver is consolidating after hitting a 5-month high of 18.64 in overseas trading yesterday.
The dollar remains defensive in the wake of President Trump comments last week and speculation that “strong dollar policy” is dead. Reuters reports that
Goldman Sachs abandoned the two strong dollar plays in its 2017 trading recommendations on Tuesday, pointing to the Trump administration’s concerns ovTuesday, April 18, 2017 |

| Yesterday, I wrote of “why the Cartel is so (rightfully) terrified”; i.e., because after six years of post- “point of no return” price suppression, including four since the April 2013 “alternative currencies destruction” raid pushed gold and silver prices below their respective 200 week moving averages, both metals are on the verge of breaching these key technical resistance levels (of $1,260/oz and $18.59/oz, respectively).

| The NEW U.S. Economic Mythology - Jeff Nielson |
| The Corporate media lies to us, all of the
time. This is not an assertion, merely an elementary observation. With a real
“free press”, we see occasional moments where different media outlets may agree
on the interpretation of particular events and/or the relative importance of
events. All other times, we see a divergence of opinion between media outlets.
This is what we would expect to see. Homo
sapiens are a contrarian species. We all have our own ideas – or at least we

| What is Trump's Dollar Policy |
| The United States Treasury Department has supported a strong dollar policy
since its inception in 1789. Period. There were no qualifications or equivocations
with that stance, especially since the ascendance of the dollar as the world's
reserve currency. That's why it was so highly unusual when the newly confirmed
Treasury Secretary, Steven Mnuchin, uttered this quote recently: "From time
to time an excessively strong dollar could have a negative short-term effect
on the economy."

| How Not To Do Due Diligence |
| Why should one own Precious Metals, you ask? Pure and simple, to protect wealth from the inevitability of financial crises; destructive governments; and based on hundreds, if not thousands, of instances throughout history – the destruction of fiat currencies that are continually re-introduced into naïve, compliant societies. Naïve and compliant, until these Ponzi schemes inevitably crash – leaving 99% of the population destitute, and the 1% that protected themselves wealthier.

| London Silver Trading Explodes as Team Trump Attacks Germany 'Strong Dollar' |
| SILVER TRADING in London's wholesale market saw the metal shoot to an 11-week high at $17.50 per ounce on Tuesday, outpacing gold bullion once again as world stock markets held flat amid headlines that new US president Donald Trump's chief trade negotiator blames Germany for "exploiting" the weak Euro to boost its exports, fuelling expectations that the celebrity real-estate tycoon will formally end the United States'
so-called "strong Dollar policy" of the last 25 years.

Reality (as defined at Wikipedia): “The strong dollar policy is the United States economic policy based on the assumption that a strong exchange rate of the United States dollar is in the interests of the United States and the whole world.
