TFMR Podcast #12 - John Williams of ShadowStats.com

Friday, February 3, 2012 at 5:58 pm

Boy oh boy, do I ever have a timely treat for you today. Back on Thursday, I was able to visit with John Williams of Shadow Government Statistics. In light of today's heavily-manipulated BLSBS report, I'd say this podcast is rather timely.

Caution For Monday

Friday, February 3, 2012 at 5:37 pm

Just a quick warning for early next week as I do not like the way things traded today.

Getting Caught Up

Friday, February 3, 2012 at 11:53 am

After yesterday's nefarious activities, I had hoped to create a lengthy, comprehensive post for you this morning. The BLSBS has gotten in the way and, since things are moving so quickly, I figured I'd better just post what I have and worry about going into detail over the weekend.

Chart Update

Thursday, February 2, 2012 at 6:40 pm

The Tech Team is still working with the server company to blunt and stop the continued DoS attacks. In the meantime, at least we have this backup platform to utilize.

I'll keep this brief. I had tried to buy back my Mar $35 silver call today but I never got filled. Nuts! I thought I might on the pullback late morning but it never happened. I was looking to buy it back because I'm expecting a decent UP day tomorrow, post the BLSBS.

Denial of Service

Thursday, February 2, 2012 at 4:16 pm

For all who might be wondering, the site is currently being maliciously attacked by someone or something. The common term for this is a "Denial of Service" attack whereby the site is shut down by an overload of requests for access. The servers get overwhelmed and the result is a site shutdown.

In Case You Missed It

Wednesday, February 1, 2012 at 9:39 pm

Lots of interesting stuff going on today. Our precious metals rallied and the open interest numbers continue to contract. However, the biggest story of the day flew under the radar.

January Ends. What Will February Bring?

Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at 10:41 pm

Wow! What a fun month! And whodathunkit? Back on 12/31, everyone was depressed and nervous. Here we are, just a scant 31 days later and the PMs are rolling again. Where will we be on Feb 29? Hmmm. I smell another "Hat Contest"!

Santa Out In Front

Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at 10:01 am

There has been a great discussion in the previous thread regarding the dire warning and interview that Santa gave to Ellis Martin yesterday. With apologies to those actively participating in it, I felt that it must be moved to its own thread.

Didn't Miss Much

Monday, January 30, 2012 at 7:58 pm

As you probably noticed, I was out all day. I was keeping track of things from afar but it sure doesn't look like I missed much. Don't despair. Tomorrow and Wednesday might generate a little more excitement.

Monday Mashup

Monday, January 30, 2012 at 8:48 am

In what should come as a surprise to no one, the PMs are lower this morning due to a slowly rising POSX. Let's watch today to see if the hard won resistance level from last week can become support this week.
