Welcome!

It’s all about investor mentality and public perception

June 20, 2016

Rick Ackerman joins us this morning to discuss what is behind the scenes driving these markets. It all comes down to investor sentiment and keeping up with the money manger the desk over or across the street. The same principle applies to the increase in car sales and continued higher home prices.

    Rick, Nobody cares, Nobody cares, I like to think that I care but remember Nobody cares, except for ourselves and then everyone cares. DT

      I care about who gets elected as the next President because if Hillary gets the nod, I believe we will see an administration like Warren G Harding had where scandals and rascality prevailed. DT

        Jun 20, 2016 20:50 AM

        Shillary will make Harding look like a piker, guarantee it.

        Jun 20, 2016 20:01 PM

        I believe the if she gets elected it will be an accurate commentary on our society. (Specifically just how messed up it has gotten.)

    Thurman being is amazingly adaptable.
    The US economy is very good at muddling through!
    But at what price? Congress has over-borrowed, in order to be able to over-promise and over-spend.
    To accommodate the incredibly large debt burden, the Federal Reserve has deliberately manipulated interest rates low.
    To make it “appear” that there is no problem with the markets, QE has been used to enable the buying of stocks and bonds, so that the prices no longer maintain any correlation to historic normality.
    We are muddling through, so far!
    But for how much longer can it continue?
    Pensions and insurance companies are paying a heavy price.
    Taxes WILL have to rise to pay public employee pensions, but that will create an even greater drag on the economy, which is already over-burdened by taxation.
    If we continue along this path much longer the economy WILL be destroyed.
    The only question is exactly when, and how badly.

    It’s very sad that some people choose to subscribe to fantasy and conspiracy theory rather than embracing life and taking control of their own future.

    They live in fear, and they propagate fear. They are drawn to fear porn to satisfy some carnal craving.

    Rather then being optimistic and hopeful, everything is negative and dark.

    It is a terrible way to go through life. They are like cripples.

    They swallow every conspiracy theory and every fantasy some you tuber sends their way.

    Whether is it FEMA camps, or NWO, or illuminati, or fluoride in toothpaste, these conspiracy crackpots swallow everything hook line and sinker.

    They think they are independent thinkers, in the know, but the reality is they are mindless robots that have no ability to judge and discern for themselves.

    They subscribe to the belief that if somebody says it it must be true.

    Rather than grabbing life with gusto they cling to fairytales and propaganda.

    The sad fact of the matter is their could be some truth in some conspiracy theories.

    But these fear mongers live in a perpetual state of thinking a fema camp is always right around the corner or ww III is always breaking out, or the entire world economy is always going to crash.

    They have failed in most aspects of their life so this way of thinking gives them a convenient cop out.

    After all they are not in control, some evil government is, or some greedy corporation, or some UFO.

    This way they don’t have to take responsibility for their own actions.

    Since they haven’t and cannot achieve success they want to see others fail as well.

    Rather then pulling people up they drag people down.

    For those of you that might stumble onto this site and come across this type of person, my advice is too avoid them at all costs. They are poison.

      Jun 20, 2016 20:20 AM

      In WW2

      Tell the 60 million people that were slaughtered to death
      and countless with physical limb loss/disabilities.

      They never saw it coming either. They heard the warnings
      and would not believe the truth.

      The next world war that is about to break out will see billions
      of life loss.

      And of coarse those who have no spiritual discernment and
      even ignore the real news of the warnings will be the one’s
      caught off guard.

      Its not fear mongering or porn. If you saw a fire storm coming
      you should warn others. Instead, we have people who think
      nothing can never happen just like the previous generation.

      Today, the truth is a rare commodity. When destruction arrives
      there will be no notice. NONE. !!! Just as in WW2.

        Jun 20, 2016 20:27 AM

        In addition, the destruction will be unfathomable. The weapons
        that are used now are in some cases 100’s of times more
        lethal.

        Entire nations could disappear. Do your due diligence. This is
        not something to take for granted. Not at all. !!!

          Jun 20, 2016 20:39 AM

          The point being, that people need to get right with the creator
          before anything like this ever happens. Its too late after the
          fact and loss of life.

          Instead, we have a world that is completely deceived and
          spiritually bankrupt. Words can’t describe what a tragedy
          this setting up to be.

            Jun 20, 2016 20:45 AM

            Furthermore, these kinds of remarks from people are very
            common. Its the broad road. The road that leads mostly
            everyone to destruction.

            No surprise here. People have chosen their own destiny.

            They refuse the truth. They seek after the world.

    I’ve followed Mr Ackerman’s public site for many years, although not as a subscriber, and his trading methods seem to work very well. With that in mind, he should stop his permabear bloviating, especially if he is right in the movement of the equity indexes near term. A breakout, defined as close at least 2% above the prior highs in the US stock indexes with the Dow, SP5 Nasdaq- and at least one of the Russell 3K or Wilshire 5K, for breadth purposes-making new all time highs. If that occurs, after an 18 month trading range, that implies a new cyclic leg higher that would run for months or years. It would also confirm that a classic debt deflation, ala 1930-33 in the US, WILL NOT HAPPEN. Deflation had its best chance in 2008-9 and was stuffed on 4th and goal at the 2 by central bank and government scamming, which is possible due to totally fiat money and credit systems and it remains possible today. So an SP5 close at 2170 or more, and similar moves in the indexes noted above, will start a new major leg higher in stocks and kill the true deflationary possibility for good. A false breakout, followed by a major drop, could occur but the SP5 would have to limit the new closing high to 20-25 points at most beyond the 2135 high of last year.
    With that, I’d also note that I can easily see a major 50%+ type drop in stocks but it’s because I believe this trading range of the past 18 months can dertainlyy be a large top of major import when viewed on a long term chart(and I’d truly like to hear why Mr Ackerman thinks its most unlikely-it might not be but the possibility seems too large to not give it at least equal likelihood as a consolidation). A big piece of the evidence for a top to me is the level of valuation for equities, which I do not recall you folks or Mr Ackerman ever discussing much or at all. Also, I can see a simple Elliott Wave(often an oxymoron) big picture view calling for a major peak: Wave 1 was 1932-66, 2 was 66-74, 3 was 74-2000, 4 was 2000-09, 5 is 2009-now;as to how this 5 since 09 is to finish(and certainly its close if not already done) i’ll that to the Elliott fanatics.
    Finally(believe it or not) I found Mr Korelin;s comments of interest. I would say that I took it that he implied major coordinated manipulation by central banks, governments and the largest global financial firms to keep financial asset prices high and then higher(again, valuations on US equities are, in some broad measures like vs revenue, etc,. the highest ever) still. Many of the people who have money in the financial markets may ‘want’ to avoid another massive decline and keep prices going higher still, but their desires vs, that of anything like a relatively free market are irrelevant. Thanks.

      Jun 20, 2016 20:20 PM

      Thank you Rantly!

        Jun 20, 2016 20:37 PM

        You are welcome. Again, though, do you feel that current asset market levels can be sustained indefinately via manipulation?

      Jun 20, 2016 20:06 PM

      Gotta love that name! Even I couldn’t come up with a name that good. 🙂

    Jun 20, 2016 20:21 AM

    Believe it or not, I forgot to say that in no way do I believe that a sharp move higher in ‘risk assets’ implies anything that could be called a ‘good’ real economic outcome-the very best would be a continued wheezing advance with low capital investment and terrible employment results, that manages to hold above the formal recession line. And with the general pattern of macro economic weakening globally over the last year(occasional bounces notwithstanding), that may be hard to sustain.

    Jun 20, 2016 20:00 AM

    One more, those that seek after this world, that is not good
    and is evil you now are a guilty party embracing this ungodly
    wicked planet. Which makes that party/person an enemy of
    the creator. There is absolutely nothing good here. Wait till
    destruction arrives. Mother nature will always prevail too.

    Its happened over and over again through out history. We are
    now at a tipping point.

        Nope Al,

        The children of the devil follow the world.

        The children of God inherit The Kingdom.

        Two places only — up or down !!!

    Jun 20, 2016 20:19 PM

    I have very good news. Thank you JTL for your comments.

    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. !!!

    I have no further business in here. The message has been
    delivered. If just one person has a knowledged the future
    that is coming and will get right with the creator it was worth
    the efforts.

    Everyone can refuel in here and get optimistic regarding the
    bright prosperity that lies ahead in inflation hedges. Those that
    want to seek after those things and enjoy every minute because
    this world is running on fumes. What comes after that, is what
    everyone has earned, inheriting this world that is going to be
    destroyed by fire.

    Leave your negative comments as you choose. It won’t be a
    witness against me, but you.

    Good luck with your endeavors !!!

    Ship ahoy Jerry. “Friend of the world” Enjoy the Titanic.

    You too Andrew. Archdeacon who is not a lover of the
    truth. “Friend of the world”

    All enmity with God. “Where your treasure is, there shall your heart be also”.

    Shalom !!

      Jun 20, 2016 20:56 PM

      How could you leave when Rantley McTirade shows up???

      Just think of all you will miss.

        Jun 20, 2016 20:51 PM

        Thanks Ebolan, nice and thoughtful. I agree. Rantly sounds like a
        real pro. I’m sure he’s much better than I. Very thorough and
        highly professional. First class commentary. Real champ.

        Hands down, he’s got your back in here. Hope he stays awhile.

        Maybe Rantly can bring some sanity back in here with the gold
        trade. The house boys in here with their pom poms. Someone
        needs to break it up. I’m now hearing $10,000 gold and above.

        When I hear these stratospheric prices, I want to grab my things
        and bounce as fast as I can out of here. Rantly turns up the heat
        in here maybe these unreasonable gold bugs can grab a pair and
        calm down. I’m out !!! Snow white and the seven dwarf stories are
        now way past their shelf life. Finito !!! The gold bear lives on.
        Oil to gold is historically ridiculous. Done explaining it !!!

    Jun 20, 2016 20:54 PM

    Are you really leaving HH? Heard that before. Please be true to your word.

      Jun 20, 2016 20:06 PM

      Andrew,

      I can’t be around children of the devil. Its emnity
      with God.

      No, I’m not perfect but I don’t ignore the truth.

      You do not have God like you believe. You can
      use any title you wish. You have no love for the
      truth.

      I will return when I feel its appropriate. My message
      was delivered. Looks like I will never return. So count
      it all joy, as I will. Gods own, love theirs. Satan’s own,
      loves their own. Like mixing water and oil.

      Shalom !!!

        Jun 20, 2016 20:41 PM

        HH…You lost my interest in you when you used the word…shalom, not once but twice……….May your GOD protect you , & keep you safe.

          Jun 20, 2016 20:55 PM

          Sorry Tony. Shalom only means peace. Its not
          the occult or anything that is unfriendly. The rules
          in here do not want us to mention God. I try to avoid
          it and use an analogy if I can.

          Thank you dear Tony. May the grace of God be
          with you always. Blessings in The Lord.

          Jun 20, 2016 20:11 PM

          Or as has been said of other fanatics Tony: You worship God in your way and I’ll worship in His!!

            Jun 20, 2016 20:20 PM

            ANDREW…It’s what’s in your your heart (soul) that matters, not what comes out of your mouth.

            Jun 20, 2016 20:25 PM

            I’m not a praying man, but I sure hope The UK gives The EU dominated by Germany two thumbs down on Thursday. DT

            Jun 20, 2016 20:30 PM

            Andrew, this place is the worship of idols.

            You can only serve one God of the holy
            bible and mammon/wealth/money/things
            are being worshipped in here.

            Thats the only interest. God is rejected in
            spades. Antichrist spirit !! Again, emnity
            with God. Its a hate towards God.

            Eternal darkness !!! Leading right to it !!!!

            Jun 20, 2016 20:15 PM

            Yes Tony and yes DT or rather two fingers.

    Jun 20, 2016 20:39 PM

    DT , its unfortunate but this world is living on
    fumes. Total abominations and there is no
    remission of the transgressions.

    I say this without malice because the truth
    is our creator must destroy a society who
    is in rebellion and spitting in his eyes. This
    is not going to continue much longer without
    judgment. This world will reap, what it sows.

    Jun 20, 2016 20:13 PM

    Gold, nice come back today.

    Like I said my $1279 line in the sand, they can’t get it below that.

    $1279 now support.

    Let the bull stretch his legs!

      Jun 20, 2016 20:28 PM

      Couldn’t agree more JTL

      I don’t have any positions. The action looks
      great. The odds are not favorable for my taste
      though. I’m really selective on trades. Covered
      my short on the SPOOS last week.

      No trades in play. Just on penny slots
      at the Golden Nugget.

      No $5 buffet though James !!!

      A scoop of ice cream is 5 bucks.

      Its not the good ole days. .James !!!

    Jun 20, 2016 20:20 PM

    This is where it all ends !!

    Once again….

    Where your treasure is, there shall your heart be also.

    You choose the world, you will inherit all the destruction.

    You choose God, you will inherit the universe. You are
    royalty and in Gods family forever. Wealthy and happy
    beyond anything you can possibly imagine.

    The choice is obvious. Very tragically most will chose
    the world. They reject God and want nothing to do with
    him. They love their sin.

    And that’s it !!!! BTW the choice is made forever !

    Jun 20, 2016 20:12 PM

    $5 for ice cream ! Wow !

    Everything is going up!

    I remember a slice of pizza was 40 cents and bagels were a nickel

      Jun 20, 2016 20:41 PM

      Well, thats for the pristine gourmet hand made stuff.

      Back in the day Thrifty Drugs who is now out of biz.

      Tens cents for 1 or 2 scoops. Long ago. It was not
      good quality though.

      But Vegas those 5 buck buffets since expired decades
      ago.

      Lots of fun for just a few days. Actually, the food is the
      best part. $30 for a good buffet. You eat around noon
      and your filled for the whole day. Thats how I do it.
      Later evening small meal. Good to go !!!

      Straight to — The John !!

      Old yellar is holding A.H.T. Good news for gold bulls

    Jun 20, 2016 20:32 PM

    I love a good buffet

      Jun 20, 2016 20:06 PM

      You bet James. I do hope everything goes well for you
      and things move in your direction.

      Best of all you get to enjoy a good buffet now and then.

      I love to eat — man !!! btw Your poetry was excellent today.

      Busy day, so never got to take more time reading. I sometimes
      message you with my own crazy versions.

      Seems like everyone is writing books these days too. Anyway,
      not sure if I’m up for it. From what I remember you have some
      special talents in that regard. Gambling is more fun though !!

      YOU BET — your arse it is !!!

    Jun 20, 2016 20:23 PM

    HH You’re a man riddled with fear and riddled with a twisted dogma about God. People on this site are not necessarily driven by greed, or idols as you call them. There are many scriptures that speak of riches being a good thing.
    You live by peddling fear, others live by faith. Go now, and terrify yourself by living in your self-made isolation.

      Jun 21, 2016 21:02 AM

      ” … and riddled with a twisted dogma about God.”

      And you’re not?

      Jun 21, 2016 21:37 AM

      Andrew, you are not of God . Very opposite. Prophecy
      in Gods Word is completely disregarded by you. The signs
      of judgment to a world drowning in transgressions with
      no remission or repentance. You are not following in God’s
      ways finding salvation before loss of life. This world is about
      to go into convulsions and the signs are jumping off the page.

      Yet you insist, there is absolutely nothing wrong and those that
      have not given their life to God should sit idle while you preach
      a false Gospel. You never encourage salvation.

      Then, you are finding excuses playing with your idols. What your
      doing goes completely against what God teaches. Lets not incl.
      this part, lets focus on salvation before someone passes on.

      After passing on from this life and there is no salvation its eternal
      damnation forever.

      You claim to be Archdeacon of what congregation. Another one of
      your deceptions. You have vital responsiblies in an ongoing church.
      Why do you publicly advertise yourself as such. This is very deceptive
      and misleading. You should be attending to your congregation you
      serve, not out discouraging salvation and Godly things and encouraging
      seeking everything the world has to offer.

      You are the same one few years back that called John The Baptist
      delusional. Ezekiel you said should be discarded.

      Your title you give yourself in invalid and obviously your false teachings
      because you defy the very things God sets as priorities and requires.

      Just keep thinking your a true man of God with a title that should
      not be public and your advise to others from what God sets as
      priorities you fail to recognize. In conclusion, you are leading people
      directly to the broad path of destruction. God have mercy on you.
      The bible says the punishment is much more severe in the after life
      for what you are doing unless you stop and repent of this now. Before
      your time is up. The same applies to myself. I’m not encouraging the
      things you do. No, its not fear mongering. You are greatly mistaken.

      People need to find salvation before the destruction arrives. Not what
      you’re encouraging. They are not saved unless they find salvation.

      You don’t care. That’s ungodly and the great commission is to save
      souls. Go save souls before the hour comes up on the world.

      Live out your title on your name Archdeacon. Save souls !!!

    Jun 21, 2016 21:40 AM

    Silly, silly , silly boy.

      Jun 21, 2016 21:46 AM

      You claim to be an Archdeacon talking
      this way. God have mercy. Unbelievable !!!

    Jun 21, 2016 21:07 AM

    You’re the bad one TJ/HH: No humour, no balance, no true love for God – just fanaticism. For me this post is now closed given that you learn nothing from others.

      Jun 21, 2016 21:19 AM

      Andrew, humor ?

      You go from serious to humor in several minutes because you
      realize you are deceiving yourself and others.

      You completely ridiculed me in the post above and ruthlessly said
      never return because I’m basically a very bad person in so many
      words.

      Now humor ? Would you please go act out the title you claim to hold
      and stop with your harassment with my care for others souls.

      Archdeacons duty is to save souls. Not what your doing in my comments
      above. Please go serve as you have classified yourself, Archdeacon.

      You are in charge of a congregation. That’s a big responsibly.

        Andrew, there is absolutely no humor in what your doing.

        Leading others to the broad path to destruction is very
        serious. The penalties are very severe in the after life.

        THIS IS VERY VERY SERIOUS !!! No humor, please !

    Canadian Oil Juniors:

    Does anyone know what a flowing barrel is worth in 06/2016? I doubt the market has figured it out yet.

    Anderson Exploration was once a darling of the Jr. oil markets, it’s new entity Anderson Energy Inc. just went through a massive 1000:1 reverse split, retiring $46MM in debt by issuing an insane amount of shares to existing private debt holders, 17.7 Bliion shares at $0.005 before the split and now 17 Million shares at $5.00 (1000X higher share price).

    How did the market react? It tanked -43% on the first day post-split, it’s likely heading to around $2.70/share say some oil analysts, making it worth a number near 0.0025 PRE-split per share… 1800 BBL/day, No debt now, Drilling inventory, Good land position, …

    If the BREXIT vote is YES to leave and GPB and EURO shrink in % against the $USD then the dollar will soar and Short term oil will sink against a rising dollar, but the lower oil goes short term the more unstable OPEC and the Mideast region becomes. The point is, any spark in the powder keg of the Mideast, Russia, Saudi/Iran could be preceded by lower oil prices which strangles the countries dependent on them.

    So the bigger question, what is a flowing barrel in western Canada worth 3-5 years from now if the replacement barrels come from the east, versus what if the region becomes unglued and that oil is no longer available for export at low prices and we produce and consume more Domestic oil? we cannot know until we cross that bridge but a company with 1800 BBLs trading at a quarter of a penny equivalent seems like a pretty interesting bargain to me.

      Thanks for the thoughts on the oil market Evin. I enjoy hearing your position in the energy markets.

    Andrew, do you have a clue why Europe is going to crash and burn.

    Why the US is next very soon after.

    Because Andrew, of all the false teachings and apostasy in the church.

    They mislead the people and all thats left is a true remnant of believers.
    Now you have a society and a world full of reprobate minds. Completely
    corrupt by Gods standards. This whole world is now headed for annahilaion
    and nobody has a clue why this is all happening.

    Only the true remnant knows whats coming. They did not refuse the truth
    and believed. They see the signs and don’t yell out its fear porn.

    Good luck Andrew. All that’s in this worlds future is fire and brimstone.
    God will use Russia to destroy The Evil Empires Of The West.

    All those inflation hedges and false promises will not deliver. Instead,
    it will be used as a witness against you.

    You need to go back to sound doctrine before you end up in a place
    you don’t want to be in for all of eternity.

    This world is not worth that Andrew. Nothing here can be a reason
    when this world is headed right now for total destruction.

    Turn ye, turn ye and follow the truth !! Its a responsibility we all have.

    ALLL ABOARD — THE GOLD SHIP LOLLIPOP HIT AN ICEBERG.

    You ignored my gold to oil price ratios at your own peril.

    All you Captains are going to sink to the bottom of the ocean.

    SHIP AHOY. !!!! You ignore WW3. Only problem is many will not
    be here anymore to heed any warnings.

    YOU HAVE BECOME YOUR OWN WORST ENEMY.

    Its not your enemies you need to worry about, its you,
    and so called friends who are not your friends at all.

    These friends are leading you to the broad path that leads
    to destruction. OPEN YOUR EYES BECAUSE THE HOUR
    IS LATE !!

    Or go down with the ship !!!

    Jun 21, 2016 21:57 AM

    SHIP AHOY. !!! Blurp –Blurp — Blurp.

    DOWN SHE GOES. !!! and it was over.

      Jun 21, 2016 21:33 AM

      Capt. Jerry says hang tight..

        Jun 21, 2016 21:51 AM

        Well Captain Jerry, you’re the best Capt. ever running the tightest ship.

        However, this is your “Armed Chair General” speaking !!!

        Even though I was court–martialed, here me out Sir

        Hang on to your faith.

        I’ll be in Fort Bragg soon, hope to see you there.

        Be there and be square. !!! Over & the hell out. !!!

          Jun 21, 2016 21:09 PM

          Ditto on the faith

            Jun 21, 2016 21:00 PM

            Jerry, please speaking of faith you guys need a new Chaplin
            Or Archdeacon in the house. I have been down with an illness
            last several weeks and instead of offering up spiritual things
            and support like all Chaplins/Archdeacons do, I have been
            almost pushed down the stairs in my rocker. Good thing I’m
            not in the hospital having this Chaplin/Archdeacon around, my
            life support would have been hacked/disconnected. Chaplins
            are pro life and soul saving. The one you have is a butcher.
            Sorry to break it to you !! Could not enjoy my stay here.

            Jun 21, 2016 21:31 PM

            HOPE the wheelchair has a soft seat…

            Jun 21, 2016 21:30 PM

            SHIP AHOY CAPTAIN JERRY !!!

            Really, the trip down was just a few minor scrapes.

            I was thinking about you Capt. Jerry and all that weight
            your carrying. When the ship goes down are you going
            to cast all that metal over board ?? Only way to lighten
            the load, because risking your life ain’t much of a living.

            You got water coming in today. Rough sea’s. Its not too
            late to turn around. Brinks is one phone call away and they
            will pick it up and hand you a check. Lighten the load.

            What you get in return is a official fancy check signed by
            dignitaries and then you go to the bank and the tellers will
            adore you with all those funds in their institution. They give
            you a paper receipt and presto you now have cyber bank
            digits.

            The choice is obvious. The digits represent hard work and
            labor to get them up on the computer screen. The metal is
            just lazy useless rocks.

            Hope I’m not losing ya ! Don’t ever exchange value of sweat
            and labor for rocks.

            Jerry — that’s Investing 101 !!! Thank me later Bud !!!

    What is $5,000,000 USD in Cash worth to a CDN Junior by Sept 27,2016?

    PMI Resources Ltd. symbol PMI (formerly Petromanas Resources Inc.) just completed a 70:1 reverse split after returning 0.08 cents cash to shareholders, the shares traded as high as $0.085 to $0.09 cents before Shell Oil Canada made the offer to buy out The Albania assets of PMI for 8 cents. A return of capital put $45MM USD into the hands of PMI and $5MM (Five Million in cash) was put in escrow until all the land, permits, assets were transferred to Shell by the fall.

    By Approximately Sept. 27, 2016 (subject to delays, changes etc) the ($5,000,000) is due to be disbursed to PMI.

    So pre-reverse split there were 693 million shares of PMI and post-split there are 9.9 Million shares of PMI which means 5,000,000 cash/9.9 million shares puts around $0.505 USD cash value for each share of PMI.

    However the exchange rate June 21 is approx 1.28 CDN : $1.00 USD so the shares in Canada trade at $0.70 under symbol PMI, where in the USA they trade as PENYD (formerly PENYF).

    If Brexit vote is yes, and the Euro:USD rate changes in a way that will boost the value of the $USD then the 1.28 exchange rate might see 4%+ boost some currency traders have speculated. If that were to occur and any irrational moves in other currencies benefited the $USD we could see the dollar stronger by the timeframe that PMi gets access to all this cash.

    Fiore Financial run by Billionaire Frank Guistra is handling the sale to shell oil and other than a gas well in France little PMI has no other assets except for this incoming $5MMin cash.

    Assuming Frank has any say as the largest private shareholder of PMI what is done with the incoming Cash, it will be interesting to see how PMI resources ltd. reacts to this upcoming Brexit vote… as those who followed its journey will either interpret a Brexit “YES” vote as positive for the dollar or a ‘no’ vote as weakening for the dollar.

    The big question is what is cash worth and particularly King Dollar $USD worth in this market going into the fall.

    We will know by Friday after Thursday’s vote. stay tuned.
