The Federal Reserve gives commercial banks the green light to dump a few thousand futures contracts whenever they need to manipulate prices. 😁
It’s pretty typical for all sorts of chaos to break out right before an FOMC meeting. 😁

Honestly? I’m just not buying what Yelena is selling—I really don't think she's actually going to hike those interest rates in the third month.☕

rustyseal5 said:That’s business for speculators like Charles. I’m no speculator, so I won't pretend to be an expert on that.

Long-term? Gold is easily one of the smarter plays.

And honestly, I don't see the point in certain people here constantly pushing gold or making regular folks feel like it's some big deal. To most sensible people, gold is just a little something to hold onto for a bit of long-term growth.

The fact that a few guys here obsess over it says more about their cognitive abilities than anything else.

For five years straight, we've had these clowns predicting things and acting like they're geniuses every single day.

If you had asked them eighteen months ago whether it would be worth more today, we all know exactly what they would have said.

That tells you everything you need to know about their "expertise." Like someone else pointed out, they don't actually possess knowledge—they just have faith. When you lack actual data, all you've got left is blind belief. 😁

He's gone, man, and I swear he's out of here for good.
Just toss a bone... and watch him bolt...

As for renting a safe in Canada—specifically in Topeka—NEVER AGAIN, BUT NEVER AGAIN !!!!!
Why?
- Those Canadian types won't even speak American! No way am I handing them my cash. They can forget about it; they can rent their own damn safes.
- You lease a safe for a year, but you have to give them months of notice before the term is even up if you want to cancel.
- They are expensive and incredibly rude. I went to a vault once, and the woman at the counter rolled her eyes faster than a tire spins at a gas station when you're fueling up. Am I supposed to give them money? I'm not crazy!
- They are stingy to a fault. So cheap, in fact, that they probably weigh themselves before and after using the restroom just to calculate the profit versus the loss.
- And look, you don't BUY gold in Canada if we're talking about reliability. There are plenty of options that are cheaper, more dependable, and more professional than some local outfit. But hey, everyone is the boss of their own wallet and their own goods, so buy from whoever you like. The only thing I don't get is your cynical smirk at my comment—what was that for? If you don't want to buy, fine, but don't belittle or mock me just because you don't know the backstory. I was simply trying to help an elderly gentleman. You know how those old folks are? They're fragile, afraid of their own shadows. See? In the end, I didn't make a dime from the sale; I just thought if someone wanted it, they could buy it without having to drive all the way out to Van. If I had posted that as a sales ad, the admin would have banned me IMMEDIATELY!

Patrick Moore3 said:Dunno. Personally? I’d happily drop an extra $50 just to know that gold is 100% legit... I'm never buying stuff like that under the table.🤷
...just my two cents, though. You gotta be careful when you're handing over big stacks of cash, no matter what you're buying.

Patrick Moore3 said:What kind of guarantees? Like, actual certificates?

Robert Vaughn10 said:Hey man, what’s the drive to Denver look like?
Should I even mention where you're planning to dump that?

Sean Carter said:Before you die of laughter, try being as kind as you are clever and actually enlighten us. At what price point would you be buying in the US today? What do you consider a fair market value over here?

Sean Carter said:They’ve started selling those 1oz gold New York Philharmonic coins here in the US for over $1,300 an ounce. It would be a shame to let 🙂
pass by.

Sean Carter says:
]But look, the entry point and the exit point—that's the whole game. That’s not just important, it’s everything! If you're talking about any kind of investment, timing your move in and out is absolutely critical.

Sean Carter said:Unfortunately, my colleague is mistaken; it’s not that it won't go down, it absolutely will. As we saw yesterday, we’re circling the drain. Maybe you finally understand why I'm so pessimistic, or perhaps you need more "proof"? For days the price has been creeping up just to plummet vertically! There is one fundamental difference between us. First and foremost, I invest so that I can make a profit, and if I'm not making money, I at least want to protect what I put in. That's why I see a massive red flag when I'm bleeding 10% in Euros and even more in USD. This is a huge issue for me because I didn't find this cash lying on a sidewalk; I worked my tail off for it. Please, in the future, don't try to tell people whether 10% is a lot or a little of their own money. Anyone with enough sense to be investing today already knows if 10% hits them hard or not.

That's all from me. Wishing everyone a good day and hoping for some green on the charts, though I have my doubts!
