According to some annalists/ commentators , Donld may be looking for a way out of war with Iran , what with the Gerald R Ford bog blockages and shortages of ammunition ( There must be a joke there) ,but I digress ,forgive me.

There could also be a problem with the "Joint chiefs of staff,"especially if on the Gerald R Ford , apart from getting permission from Congress and another trip to the Suprem Court because of it.

It could all be a smelly cloud to allow the Israel to build up its munitions after last years strike on Iran,

Anyway all good for the SP ,with gold price once again gradually rising ,after the speculators sell off a month ago.

So good weekend all, not much happening next week unless the Fuhrer decides to commit political suicide,.

The "poor man", he will end up attacking Wall st with his armada ,and bailing out Iran.

The hockey team win is looking like the only thing he can brag about for quiete a while. He being star player ! US is going the same way as his businesses ,before he took control, and still no one dare get rid of him.

But as I have often said hes good for gold.

What you seem to forget is the price was not based on 31/12 /25. more likely 24. the deal was offered and accepted long before year end.

The problem is that many sold ,thinking of pastures greener. Sad but individuals choices.

Anglo lhas enhanced my pension ,tax free ISA, to keep me very happy.

On another note ,I hope the president survives politics and health wise, till 2028. Purely for the good he has done for gold ,and of course the SP. My personal thoughs about him are somewhat different.

I wonder if he dares "Trumping up charges " against the supreme court . Its sure he would love to. It leaves him and his gang in a dilema, not in a good place, for the mid term elections, no time to replace his sanctions with a quick solution. Apart from his other problem.

Not many selling their shares now. ;-)

Thanks spot64, of interest to all, Kitco analysis "Gold headed to $6000 this year" etc-

The final chapter of it is of particular interest, Its logical, tempted to say, Captain Kirk ,but just said it, ;-)

Good luck to you and all long termers.

El Paso airport New Mexico was closed due to laser weapons being tested on drones without previosly co-ordinaing and informing the FAA in time to cause confusion.

Ended after just 7 hours. Not what you would call ,considerate to passengers.

Tomorrow being Friday the 13th.

Jim Wykoff,

Gold and silver sell off; reasons are unknown.

on top of that treasuries rose.

Unknown uncomfortable times. Airport in New Mexico closed for 10 days including airspace ,no explanation, Texas along with Utah distancing themslves from the FED. Xtra warships for Iran /middle east, base in Syria left in a hurry , transferred to Jordan.

Trump relatively quiet along with Bibi.

What comes next ,maybe tommorow will give a clue.,

Any ideas ? GLA.

Texas expands into gold and silver Scotsdale mint CEO Josh Phaize .

It will be possible to buy 24 ct gold direct from the state by-passingllion dealers.

Wyoming state ,slightly different in that they are building state reserves , seperate from federal laws.

The implications are huge its almost like declaring independance, at least from the fed fiscal decisions ,an insulation against what they see as budget deficits of the federal gov.

Wonder if they will be slapped with sanctions , ha ha ;-) or maybe charged with insurrection.

It seems at the moment the hot air is catching the sails of the SP at $112.

That price is much better than 30/01/2026 ,Comex day. God bless em. And on top of at a lower gold price.

Onwards and hopefully upwards, There seems there will have to be a revalueing of many Fiat currencies , not that it is important to the original backer of them. Gold and commodities.

Inflation is another way of describing revaluation of currencies. Or printing promisery notes without any proper or sufficient backing.

Fraud. On a historic scale.

Craig Hempke and Andrew Mauire discuss the reasons for last weeks disgusting crash. LIve from the vault episode 258.

Explains for everyone what really occured and questions US fiscal matters .

They ,I notice , resist exactly blaming anyone or group,for the shortfall in physical metals ( No doubt fearing sanctions ;-)

But it does not take much imagination to come to a conclusion .

The "mafia "are in control and not just in the paper futures market.

As I expected Craig is also wanting the US treasury reserves fully audited , but in my opinion ,it is probable Goldfinger cleared it all out ,over 70 years since the last audit.Or at least whether it is still owned by government or owned by multiple parties.

But hey ,where did they get it from,it was confiscated from its citizens in the 1930 s.

Or could it be the emporer is short of new clothes.

!2 billion does not mean much in the purchasing of mineral stockplies, in reality the Chinese have being doing it for many years as well as accessing fresh sources from around the world. Catching up will take decades.

At the moment Trump seems to comment about everything that is suggested to him, down to signing an order for whole milk for schools,Jan 16 2026.

When someone wants total control ,they become irrationable.

They dare not even audit their gold reserves, if Germany requests their 3000 tonnes, if they dare, the chances of them ever getting it are gone forever. though they have been considering it. It took 7 years for them to get 300 tonnes back.

The same time 12 months ago the Gold price was $2800 , the price rose gradually over the year, nothing has changed, one change at the FED ,changes nothing,the US fiscal policy overall, is exactly the same ,but the rest of the world has.

No the gnomes didnt jump ship, the Comex jumped, this could be the beggining of the end of the Comex as we have known it.

The SGE is trading at a premium to Comex , and possibly no more the tail wagging the dog,

They really "Rinsed out " or gave the tree a good shake, very co-ordinated ,clear to see , there will be far less in the future jumping on the paper market futures gravy train , their month end was pretty grim.

Sound advice Goldgnome, to act on this weeks figures would be very short termism ,if such a word exists ?

The reality is that one week ago Gold was $4989 ,all weekend ;-) and at this moment $5010. The SP is $97 week ago $ 103 .

This week is confused with the sell off by traders for month end. With March futures ,next week.

And no one sure of what to expect the next day, with many anylists admitting they have never seen anything before like this week.

GLA

Phoenix Futures , Grady.

He seems to blame today on AI trading, but I wonder who was behind it and why ?

Or a canny day trader making a huge profit. ;-)

At 1600pm gold $ 5488 by 1640pm $ 5198 ?

Someone dropped a load ,can be my only explaination ,at the moment I can find no logical reason other than it is months end and they had to get out, for liquidity, probably short term speculator selling at a loss.

7 anylists polled.

SP target revised upwards by 8.1 % , on last closing price 5.4%

219% rise overall in 12 months past.

Earnings per share increase forcast $6.02 compared to 2.33 the previous year.

Simply Wall Street ,anglo update.

So dream of dividends, the whole Anglo analisis very cheerful reading.
