Moving the Shrimp to Fiji, if the plan works.

See what I mean? Having the gold could cost you your life.
And they might be hoarding gold to pay soldiers? Planning to keep it, or just admire it until SHTF?
That's just crazy.
If I had enough gold, that's what I would do with the "money."
As hard assets go, I would much rather own Real Estate. You can farm land. Can trade gold for land, if the seller wants gold.
Gold is valuable? Shiny yellow Pet Rocks and paper weights?
They can't be loving it too much. Gold is down, and the dollar is up. Of course, I'm sure they are hopeful that reality will set in, as I am.
It certainly cannot end well. Since Trump was elected, the interest due on the National Debt (based on the rate increase) is up 50%.
Bonds have to go back up, or the Fed will have a terrible time with their leveraged assets.
Edit:
Somebody on Twiiter posted max pain for $TLT at 120.5.
An hour and a half to go?
Ok, a week to go. Makes more sense. Dec 16 according to MW.
If the past opex results are any indication, I think I would bet short.
Too late, already did. Losing my ass. I think I'll hold.
Don't they still owe about $25 million to preferred shareholders?
Bonds are still my favorite signal. TLT just busted out. NT target is 123.
Same here. I try my luck at the trade to have toes in the water for big moves, but always want to close the position by end of day.
I don't know what they call it, but VXX will grind away at premium/contango/whatever.
Foreign markets are rallying. SPY will probably hold ground. The casino loves Theta burn, until they don't.
When Karl Rove has to be the one to tell you why the Hamilton outburst was pathetic, the press is not doing their job.
The public needs the facts. If the press was doing their job, Trump wouldn't have to out them. Real Journalists would be ratting out the bad ones.
A fair solution, would be to elect a press pool of say 10, from nominations of the "profession" and draw straws for 3 on each trip.
Don't need a gaggle of slobbering pigs on the plane.
Journalism will win. As soon as they revert back to journalism, and throw the current hacks in the dumpster.
First comes the realization that even if they agree, they will cheat, and oil plunges. It's the same dance every time.
IMHO, the Beige Book has more influence than their decision. People read it, and know when the Fed is being irrational.
The market itself has the power. The Fed, however, has enough influence to create small fortunes. Especially for people who began with large ones.
As an example, even the hint of a quarter point rise caused the bonds to plunge, and cost the economy about 10 trillion in liquidity. Count the Muni Market. It could actually be larger than 10.
The End of a K-Wave is signified by a "distribution of wealth" Socialists try to force it, by taxation, and have failed miserably everytime. What really happens, is innovation breeds, and the economy begins anew.
Yes. I have been saying the FED should enter the digital age. They should be raising rates in tenths and 2Oths. I am totally against a quarter point hike.
I like the guy, but he's not magic. The steaming pile belongs to Obama for at least another year. It's his legacy. If the Fed raises rates a few times on Trump, the fix is in. It's rigged.
The Fed needs to stay dovish until real growth sets in, and real growth won't come unless innovation appears. It's my read on Kondratiev. We are still in Winter of the K-Wave.
iPhones were a great innovation, but have only spurred production of terrorist activity and turmoil, and really, they are just an extension of the PC revolution. Winter cold get colder.
Personally, I would not hang that disgusting crap on my wall.
I wouldn't even associate myself with anyone who hung that disgusting crap on their wall.
Participation is a pretty general term. It could refer to hanging a painting on the wall, or actually painting it.
It's not all about his little shop of horrors. It's about certain elitists. His participation is just a side bar and a window to much more powerful players.
Some have noticed that he is right accross the street from a Haitian charity, funded by Clinton Foundation.
They also say that a child traffic investigator was recently killed in Haiti. The rabbit hole is pretty deep and dark.
You can pretty much set your watch by these statistics.

Rich folks are just a different type of crazy. 1 of every three people you meet will have some sort of eccentricity.
Pizzagate is just about a few eccentric people.
And BTW, like "Global Warming" this nutball theory doesn't have a fully written hypothesis. Just a generic and flexible interpretation.
They are finding old Breitbart tweets suggesting Pizza service.
Even if PizzaGate isn't real, the artist should be jailed.
I noted that the last plunge coincided with Buffet paying cash to a merger target. Kraft Foods, I think.
You have to find cash somewhere.
Julian knows, and he said it wasn't a Russian.
Rumor is that he is dead, and another one says he will be Time's Person of the Year.
It's all about the liquidity. The banks sold bonds to finance Black Friday. Now they are taking huge receipts, and putting the money back.
If Bonds stay cheap, liquidity is lost.
Is it a Russian SPY?
I'm looking for another head fake up, and a dive down.
I keep watching the conviction in the long bond. If the bonds spike up, then I might pull off.
EO making Pence head of the Fed, and fixing the banking system?
LOL
I think it will find more as the day progresses.
Just a hunch.
The Trump train needs to stop for fuel and water.
Probably another one of those flag waving Baptists again.
As they say on the big screen, "Katy, bar the door."
Somebody hand me my cue stick.
Ready or not. Here it goes.
