Silver and a “Monday Sky Check”

No, we are not ringing the bell, yelling “Panic!” and everyone “run from street.”

But, there are a couple of great videos making the round this weekend from Jon A.G. over on Youtube which will help you feel less like “Chicken Little” is coming and more like “Jeez, should have listened when George was buying silver at $6.94 back in 2005, huh?”

I’ve seen this movie before — you might want to notice the trailer. It sure smells like a re-release.

We followed a reader tip and landed on Jon AG – YouTube.  And if you like money, block out time today – tomorrow could be too late.

Let’s start with his (Friday) take on what was buried under the cover of Santa late Friday after the markets closed.


Then, he followed-up on Saturday with this:

And then there’s his Sunday take.

As Long-time readers know, I don’t usually put videos up – I have real things to do around here on weekends.

But, taken as a whole, I think these videos set the stage for the outcomes we kicked around in Saturday’s ChartPack on the Peoplenomics website.

A side bet: Big banks and the Fed don’t like to admit to bailing out The Bigs.  So we are half-expecting either Trade tomorrow, or maybe Housing data Tuesday could become the whipping boy in the week ahead.

Have the Maalox at the ready and more tomorrow before the bell…

  1. re: “The Ball Drops Here”
    feat: Times Square Countdown Timer

    Wow, shiver me timbers, sounds like Captain George is readying to reset the chronometer! I don’t know if Mr. Anderson Cooper will be calling the shots this New Year’s Eve for “CNN”. The Times Square Ball website informs that the first “time ball” saw use at Greenwich, England in 1833. A startup 1907 New York NYE effort saw one hundred 25 watt lightbulbs descend from on high thanks to a certain Russian-born metalworker named Mr. Starr. However there’s a new 9th generation ‘Constellation Ball’ festooned with Irish crystal in Times Square this year ready to drop its 6 ton hammer weight on the festive mood. Here’s a link to Time Square’s paper detailing the new ‘Constellation Ball’ representing “Infinite Life, Liberty, and Happiness”:

    The President of the Ukraine has not posted video to social media of his airport arrival at Miami. Thankfully Ukraine’s “News Live” captured the dramatic port entry. Descending upon uncarpeted surface, the President received greeting from his Ukraine Ambassador to the USA, a uniformed officer of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and a possible apparatchik of Ukraine bureaucracy. It is understood that the Ukraine leader is scheduled to meet President Trump at 8:00 pm. I don’t know if the public invitation includes sustenance or whether the Ukrainian entourage will be invited to chill in the ‘Honorable Justin Trudeau’ Library annex while Mar-a-Lago guests finish dinner.

  2. Don’t buy paper PM’s in this environment unless you can afford to walk away from the principal.
    A monster box at less than $10K was quite the bargain. I haven’t really seen anything to indicate yet that the PM run-up is something more than the market taking a Comex default into account. Don’t kid yourself into believing that Trump, Powell and the Treasury depts don’t have the Roosevelt play book memorized. I would say that a $150K silver monster box isn’t really likely at this time, but would be a diversification investment, not the last lifesaver, at least for now. Ask me again in May.

  3. JM Bullion no longer has 2025 silver Eagles for sale. The 2026 pre-sales are at $ 44,690.00 . The 2026 boxes are paper PM’s right now.
    There are some 2022 physical boxes, but that is all of the sealed physical big boxes available from a big national broker.
    Silver is approaching $80/ ounce. Another 10% by the end of the week is not SF. To get to $150K requires almost $300 an ounce. Don’t see that happening in the immediate future. Gold is not rising anywhere near that fast. This is gold/silver ratio adjustment.
    I would like to be a fly on the wall at the Fed repo window. I’m expecting some regulators to move on some banks by Friday. Ag contagion.
