The correlation between interest rates and gold price is within the context of other variables. And anyway, the assertion was not made about price, but about quantity. At a time of serious macro changes in a number of key variables, it was a stupid correlation.

Enlighten yourself.

You ever #EVER going to countdown your two months? Surely one has passed already. Your timetable will be just in time for the first lane of cluster bombs opening a trench straight through a Russian defence line. Kerrrrr boom, boom, b b b b b b boom boom b b b b boom....

"Friday, according to state-run RT".. any point reading the rest?

"Since mid-2022, central banks worldwide have been buying gold at a historic pace in part to diversify their reserve away from the U.S. dollar. "

err excuse me but err interest rates? political instability? inflation? So non of these macro variables has anything to do with gold as a safe haven?

It's a BRICS bitcoin bubble and a lot of people will be burnt holding the notes. The exchange rate with the dollar will be worthless and you'll need wheelbarrow loads to buy a Big Mac in New York. lol

Ukraine soldiers follow orders thanks to NATO training and the fact they are fighting for a just cause with competent command and control.

Russians are a whole different ball game and are in open rebellion.

Ukraine soldiers are trained to be professional. Russian are just prepared to be canon fodder.

Scrapping the bottom of the barrel again BSR.

The Russian army is collapsing. When the civil war kicks off there will be no army structure to call on to defend the cities. It will be oligarch v oligarch with existing and new private armies for hire. What deal is Prigie striking right now in Russia?

Another example of the US pulling support for Ukraine. Not!

Wrong! The deal with the US to stop pursuing the Taliban was on the basis that the Taliban would not support or facilitate Al Qaida. With that, the US army would then hand over to the Afghan army who had control over most of the country. The Trump final withdrawal date was May, but it was extended to August under Biden. But insurgent attacks continued against the Afghan army, and when the bulk of US forces were gone it became apparent there wasn't an Afghan army, it wasxa fake army. Biden didn't reverse tye withdrawal so the Taliban was simply able to take over the country unopposed.

It is often quoted and described as Trump doing a deal directly with the Taliban as it suits the negative image aimed at Trump. The arrangement to wind down and leave was actually between the US and Afghanistan with an effective truce with the Taliban. But it was a con as the Afghan army was on paper only.

A date to withdrawal was set years before in Trump's presidency. The British had gone and the US were winding down the last units. The Taliban found there was no Afghan army, it was a fake army but the US already was in exit. It turned messy when thousands of Afghans tried to leave with them unplanned, the Afghan army was supposed to hold nearly all the country. There was no hurry, they left by the longstanding pre-arranged date.

,..,.. oh and the US didn't make a deal with the Taliban, it was a hand over to the Afghan army which turned out to be dust in the desert.

You mug. Russia is desperately begging on its knees for somebody somewhere to get them out of the hole they have made. There is no way Russia will be allowed any territorial gain, no matter how many retired sympathetic former officials from the US, China or any where else talk tp them (and banking the finders fees).

Russia is desperate. One shot away from coup and civil war. It isn't the US or NATO or the west looking for any off ramp. The solution for Russia is very simple and very easy. Leave Ukraine. They have no business being there. There will be no negotiated settlement leaving Russia with any reward for its aggression. Christ man, even Germany is conceding it made a major error and the east European countries were right and Russia is a very real threat intent on trying to expand the war and destroy Europe itself.

You are clutching at straws again. You too are desperate for somebody to invent a solution rather than facing the real world head on.

"You grab men of the street and rush them to the front line and just expect them to run to their death."

That's how they do things in Russia. Ukraine troops are better trained and prepared. It's a war, full blown war. You've obviously no experience of being under fire. You have an incredible naive understanding of how people behave. I reckon you are an underdeveloped early twenties who hasn't had to fend for yourself ever. Very inexperienced, still a virgin and never drank in a northern pub.

"How will all this happen if the soldiers are full of doubt? "

You know nothing. Soldiers follow orders. If ordered over te top, off that soldier will go as ordered. Why? Because they are going to be attacked by an invader anyway, se previous 14 month. He may well ponder how good or bad the Russian defensive line might be during a meal break, but that will have no impact on reducing performance. If you want to know what real demoralisation is like, read the reports of the intercepted Russian calls on the battle field at all ranks and back to Russia. Why do you think so many Russian soldiers are being shot in the back by their own side? When that is the only option for the commander, it is game over.

No sh.it BRS!!!!!! Interviewing soldiers on the front line openly expressing concern? Of course, if they were Russian, they would have had a bullet in the back of the head for saying that, and not necessarily off camera. I would be rather sceptical of front line fighters being jingoistic and claiming everything is hunky dory. It's a fooking war with real bullets and bombs!!!! Ukraine are taking their time, testing, assessing, re-routing, re-deploying as required so when the main push(s) is/ are launched they wil have maximum effect. The BBC found a soldiers speaking openly, freely and from their own isolated perception. And?

Retreating back in to the world of delusion, blinkers, heads in the sand. Where is this "admitting you are fighting a losing war"? It doesn't exist. You have to invent this in a desperate attempt to try and alter the reality facing you. Ukraine has entered a fight back. It is chipping away at the Russian line. It is pushing back the Russian line consistently all day everyday. It is taking its own time to prepare the major offensive move to come - Ukraine is acting on its own terms. Russia is being defeated daily again and the main bulk of the counter-offensive hasn't even be deployed yet alone given orders. Russia is melting internally, a simmering coup is one bullet shot away and the whole country is bracing for all out civil war. All those ethnic groups who have been used as canon fodder ready to march west on the major Russian cities seeking reparation. All the middle class being hammered financially unable to travel, all those private armies of those oligarchs fully aware of the real truth about the grotesque aggression and Russian terrorism and the international isolation that has come with it.

The end of Russia is neigh. And the delicious irony is that it is 100% Putin's fault and if he had done nothing, Russia would continue to exist. No the end of Russia is guaranteed.

Chip, chip, chip...... that wall is slowly being ground down.

Actually the president of Bulgaria is well out of step with the rest of the political structure in Bulgaria as a Putin sympathiser who failed to move his position quickly enough and is now a hostage to his own position. He was duly challenged and had no defence and ended up sending the cameras out of the press meting. The rest of the political establishment are open supporting Ukraine and announced more military assistance.

Who you gonna trust?

Bb...if you recall, after meeting in Jan I was the first one to supply info on redom to Kaz, Abu Dhabi and Hk in that order, that was after speaking to POLY IR. this was proved to be true. In fact, every comment I posted on my dialog with POLY IR at the time came true.

Check if you want to.

RE: Other brokersToday 14:30

I just spoke to POLY IR regards redom and holding POLY on the AIX. They told me the following

1) Redom only happens if 75% of those voting actually votes in favour to redom, not 75% of all shareholders on register

OBZ...the article mentions split but doesnt mention listing of Kaz business on the LSE. POLY IR told me they will list the Kaz business on the LSE and keep Russian business listed on AIX.

I didnt want to divulge more info than I already have, but the info on domiciling Kaz business on LSE came about when I asked the person what he/she would do once POLY abandons London. He/she said to me POLY Kaz business would be listed in London once the business is split and so the person would be staying in London to facilitate and manage business here in London.

A Dhabi and HK was not mentioned before 27 Jan anywhere except by me after I had spoken to POLY IR.
