What is actually forcing the Fed into the repo market?

Cory
December 9, 2019

John Rubino joins me for a look into the repo market and what is making the Fed continue to inject money. There have been a lot of differing thoughts on what is causing these issues. This also ties into a discussion on debt and how the financial system is stuck on needing more and more to keep functioning.

      Perhaps the biggest “TELL” that Horowitz is an entrenched member of the Deep State is the fact that he “found no bias” among upper officials in the F.B.I.
      Horowitz can produce obvious facts, but will not point fingers of blame on anyone.
      Just as with his previous report that gave us the waste of time of the Mueller investigation, we have the same problem again.

      Mako Mining Corp. (TSX-V: MKO) is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing project development and exploration programs at its fully-permitted San Albino project

      “Development work at San Albino is proceeding on schedule. The crusher has been purchased and is expected to be delivered to site over the course of the next six weeks. Importantly, the crusher is capable of handling over 1,000tpd, which allows for an increase in throughput beyond the 500tpd permit granted in September 2017. Earthworks for the mill platform are now complete. Numerous second-hand mills have been identified with plans to select the best one for the project by the end of 2019. Plant construction is still on track for completion by the summer of 2020.”

      “Although only 7,000 m of infill grade-control drilling were planned at San Albino, the positive results encountered to date have extended the program to over 9,600 m and 224 diamond drill holes. Specifically, the decision to dedicate one drill rig to testing the strike and down dip extensions of the near surface high-grade Porcelana-style mineralization has yielded some of the highest grade x thickness intercepts in the Company’s history (see press releases dated September 4, 2019, September 26, 2019 and October 17, 2019). In an attempt to aggressively test the down dip extension of the Porcelana-style mineralization, hole SA19-299 was drilled well outside the ultimate pit limit (approximately 70 m down dip) as defined in the Company’s Preliminary Economic Assessment for the San Albino Gold Deposit dated April 29, 2015 (the “PEA”) and available on the Mako’s website and SEDAR profile at http://www.sedar.com. The Company is pleased to report that hole SA19-299 has intersected a relatively thick zone (greater than 4 m) of sulfide mineralization that has previously been associated with high gold grades.”

      “An additional batch of infill drilling results will be ready for dissemination shortly, with remaining assay results, including hole SA19-299, to be released as they are received.”

    Having read about half of the DoJ I.G. Report that was issued today, I can reach one SOLID conclusion:

    Horowitz is clearly a member of the DeepState.
    Time and time again his choice of words indicates this fact.

    Horowitz repeatedly uses words like “omissions”, “errors”, “inaccuracies”,or “inconsistencies” to describe KNOWN FALSEHOODS or outright LIES.
    I am disgusted at this document which represents essentially a cover up, not of incompetence by the F.B.I., but what was a KNOWINGLY FALSE investigation.
    The F.B.I. KNEW the Steele Dossier was false.
    They never used any information from Steele in ANY criminal proceeding. Explain that fact, by anything OTHER than knowledge that Steele information was unreliable at best, or DELIBERATELY FALSE at worst. The F.B.I. deliberately CHOSE NOT TO INVESTIGATE the veracity of Steele derived “information”.

    Three years of “investigation” and this is the sum total of the inquiry?
    What a waste of money. Was Horowitz expecting us to forget the facts?

    I await the results from Durham, and pray that he is not also Deep State.

    Hannity tares into FISA Report, and FBI.

    But Hannity follows the I.G. Report in totally underestimating misfesances and MALFEASANCES of FBI.

    (Not 17 but THREE TIMES THAT.
    51 actual violations of U.S. Law.

    It does not surprise me, perhaps that Horowitz reports just facts and REFUSES to read between the lines, because he is Deep State.
    Obviously Comey and McCabe effectively took the fifth, without actually taking the fifth.
    Horowitz talks about”limited recollections” (I can’t remember….I don’t recall) and “no meeting minutes” when discussing information related to comey and McCabe. (Clearly old hands at investigations and how not to get caught in outright perjury.)
    But asking between the lines…..
    If the upper echelons of the F.B.I. were relying on statements from Downer of Australia about the Russian connection of the Trump administration, HOW COME DOWNER WAS NEVER INTERVIEWED DIRECTLY. (Answer: they knew the Downer information was false but needed it to get the FISA warrants.) So why does Horowitz not discuss this ? (He’s Deep State.) People should realize that often as much information is given by what is not asked or not said, as may be carried by what was said.
    Why are the relationships of Downer, Carter Page and Mifsud to the C.I.A. not exactly pinned down by Horowitz ? (Deep State again protecting its own.)

      Good to know. I bought a little more a few weeks ago when it looked fairly washed out. I would like to buy some more, but I’d have to sell something to buy more at this point as I am fully invested. I have also been watching Dolly Varden.

        Dec 10, 2019 10:51 AM

        (DV) (DOLLF) Dolly Varden has really sold off, and I can’t see a valid fundamental reason why other than market apathy, but I might be missing something. They’ve done a good job on exploration all year and last year, and things look promising, but the shareprice has been hammered. It does look like a good tax loss pickup here.

        They came out with their 2019 year in review and still sold off, but most of the Silver JR space sold off today, so it appears to be a weak trading day. Still, you’d think there’d be a little bump on this update.

        2019 Year In Review for the Dolly Varden Silver Program in the Golden Triangle, British Columbia

        by @newswire on 10 Dec 2019

        Diamond drilling of 11,863 metres in 44 drill holes completed in 2019.

        High-grade silver intercepts included 5 metres grading over 1,600 grams per tonne.

        Updated Mineral Resource Estimate completed for four deposits.

        Preliminary metallurgical tests yielded silver recoveries up to 88%.

        Access improved to the heart of the property with numerous creek-crossing bridge repairs.

        The BC Regional Mining Alliance has expanded to promote investment in northwestern BC.

    Agreed Ex. I am waiting a bit as I think it will come down a bit lower in my opinion, but will probably pick some up soon. I sold some more NSRPF today as I think in the short term it is looking a bit toppy and really I held to large a position.

    What the heck got into Metalla Royalty today? That breakout on heavy volume caught me by surprise.
