  1. Still at all these years later.

    “...It’s working...”  2021 less than 8% of population was below the poverty level .   2022 more than 12% .  2023 ?? ..

     

    "I think most people who follow this issue were expecting some increase in the number of children who had fallen into poverty or maybe were pushed into poverty, depending on how you look at it.

    But these numbers are astounding, I think, more than double the child poverty rate in 2022 that we saw in 2021, a result partly, of course, of the fact that cost of living has gone up. Some of the expenses that are taken into account in that measure, work expenses, medical expenses, et cetera, have gone up.

    But, primarily, it is due to a policy choice that lawmakers (mainly far-right Republicans) made, which was to basically let a number of pandemic-era programs lapse, chiefly the child tax credit, as you mentioned, but some others as well."

     

    Easy to spout (lazier) than to look into reasons why.

    btw, bet lost ... hope you  weren't all in...

    btwbtw, fyi there aint no militia

    LOL what's with the quotes "then they came ....". Quoting yourself. Although I am a progressive thinker I am the further thing away from a libber but just short of a Red Dawn gun crazy. 

    But I bet, again, you are just not admitting that you love Smart bombs and Tomahawk missiles and Abram tanks and Stealth Fighters as much as the next gun lubber.

    Also I know there is not militia. Just kooks and their phallic guns "protecting" us all.

    Meanwhile better stock up before the are all gone:

    that's the thing sunny - 'someone' was not reported for breaking any gun or other laws, 'someone' was not arrested, 'someone' was not charged... they just confiscated his gun... at least the writer 'thinked' to not also disclose his name needlessly.

    before you 'think',  we might have to go to levels where you are forfeiting some of your (non gun) assets for no cause before you started getting the police state point...

    Do you believe everything you read? I believe almost nothing someone posts online

    They took his gun ... according to some wingnut gun blogger. huh zdon't know.

    Really, must be true, because someone said it was.

    Nice touch in both links with the stock photo of swat storm troopers. Did these all those guys show up for one pistol. LOL

    Meanwhile bet you are all for having a strong kick azz military and militarized state and local police. But you and the "militia" we defend us from tyranny. LOL

    Seattle Police Begin Nazi-Style Gun Confiscation: No Laws Broken, No Warrant, No Charges

    "A man in Seattle has had his gun confiscated by police after breaking no laws."

    I guess ... a man ... with no name?

    You would think (the writer should try it sometimes) if someone had their gun confiscated they were charged criminally and there would be a public record to look at and see who they are, duh.

    Otherwise they just across like a right wingnut gun lubber.

    Neighbor Tony Montana that's a good one though lol.

    Of course story is followed by a gold shilling ad.


  6. Bob,

     

    Never bought an option in my life.

     

    "6. Rising prices and a decline in open interest at a rate greater than the seasonal norm is bearish. This market condition develops because short covering, not fundamental demand, is fueling the rising price trend. In these circumstances money is flowing out of the market. Consequently, when the short covering has run its course, prices will decline."

     

    I would say ... should decline, not will.

  7. It was a surprise. :crap:

    Chinese central bank released DEC. trade data early, which steadied the yuan and the stock market

    This trade data was positive with exports far exceeding imports.

    Expect Gold to go back up if this data reverses end Jan :confused:

    So we have a month of bearish Gold. No wars expected this month

    PS

    I now have two edges to trade Gold.... $ / Gold negative correlation

    .....China trade / Gold negative correlation :):)

     

    Hey Bob,

     

    What about this?

  8. You dont have to call a bottom to BUY

    It called counter trend trading :):)

    LONG @1078

    STOP now @1099

    TARGET 1120 , then 1125.

     

    Danger .. big positive job US report on Friday.

    ... US $ rising.

    Catalyst....CHINA falls. GOLD rises

    My view

    regards bobc

    Of course - short term.

     

    But that previous poster seems to be making a longer term call.


  9. ...

    All the philosophising in the world about where PM prices should or would be will not change the fact that if one is long silver or gold, he is currently on the wrong side of the market. One who is long is betting the side of the sucker.

    That. Notwithstanding yet another dead cat bounce currently.
