    Mr. Lyons appears to believe the stock market is an ordinary free market; Cory too.
    there is an excessive amount of investable money in the world due to the insane monetary policy of most central banks. there is a bubble being blown in stockmarkets around the world because of the financial repression of low interest rates. the alternative investment of property markets are increasingly looked upon as overpriced, and likely to have their bubbles burst, e.g. Vancouver, London, Sydney, and soon to be Toronto, California and New York.
    Oc course there is rotation among groups in the stock market as investors are aware that various groups are over-priced.

      Aug 20, 2016 20:10 PM

      Cory does not believe that.

    Clinton’s belief that she can force companies to bring money back from from abroad is extremely naive, and could easily be avoided, through used of foreign subsidiaries.
    A point no one ever raises is under what moral or legal right does the US Government think it should have the right to tax income made by a foreign subsidiary of a US company, if that income was earned entirely abroad and by workers abroad and companies abroad and had never touched US mainland?

      Aug 20, 2016 20:30 AM

      The Canadian Revenue Agency seems to think Silver Wheaton’s foreign subsidiary should pay tax income made abroad.

      PF
      Aug 20, 2016 20:41 AM

      But the income wasn’t earned by workers abroad. The engineers (for example at Apple) who created the iPhone are mostly based in the U.S. Apple’s foreign workers are probably just sales people and the people who work at the factories assembling these products.

        i was really referring to mining companies. where the company is a foreign subsidiary, the workers live in a foreign country, and the mining is done in a foreign country.
        i can see taxation of money sent back to the US.
        i cannot see ANY MORAL OR LEGAL REASON for US taxation of money NOT sent back to the US.
        OR any moral or legal way to force the money to be sent back.

      The US Dollar has appreciated a lot in the past couple of years. So in dollar-terms companies are losing money on their foreign money. So while trying to dodge U.S. taxes, they ended up losing a significant amount of it anyways due to currency losses.

        Aug 20, 2016 20:02 AM

        Just because they hold the “money” outside US does not mean they cannot hold assets in USD terms or USD.

          mr. O’Neil, there are bank accounts in Europe that can be open in various currencies, including the US Dollar.
          There are also ways of banking in a foreign currency,but hedging for a loss relative to the dollar.
          BOTH techniques are commonly used.

            Aug 20, 2016 20:11 PM

            I believe that was his point. Contrary to PF’s assumption, they can easily hold U.S. dollars if they wish.

    New Plan for Ms. Clinton!

    If instead of raising taxes on the rich, strip them of all wealth and place them in work camps (Fema). With the confiscated wealth, my estimation is that the government can be supported for six months. (I guess we would have to lower the income/property levels for the following years). Why go with baby steps?

    No need for applause, I will have other brilliant economic policies for Ms. Clinton. By the way, has anyone notice her thorazine look? I am worried about her health.

    Valentin Schmid has it right we need a businessman for President. If more people are working there will be less demands from labor for higher and higher wages to offset the negative drag of unemployment. It’s all about jobs which is the economy. If you became unemployed or walking the streets, the social programs mean nothing long term. If you were asked what is good for you the answer would be ” A job” . The economy ranks #1! DT

    One question on the segment 4 subject: We spend time listening to the two candidates and their ideas but what are the chances that either of them could get Congress to go along? Seems to me that should be the question since neither of them can do much by simply occupying the White House.
    Secondly, arguments such as this always assumes that the billionaire, left to his own wits and freedom to make more will take the proceeds and achieve lots of good from his investments. That’s a very broad, theoretical stroke. JMO.

    Shocking Government Report Finds $6.5 Trillion In Taxpayer Funds “Unaccounted For”

    Last week, we first touched on a topic which, in any non-banana republic, would be a far greater scandal than what Ryan Lochte may or may not have been doing in a Rio bathroom: namely, government corruption, falsification and potential fraud and embezzlement, which has resulted in the Pentagon being unable to account for up to $8.5 trillion in taxpayer funding.

    Today, Reuters follows up on this disturbing issue, and reveals that the Army’s finances are so jumbled it had to make trillions of dollars of improper accounting adjustments to create an illusion that its books are balanced. The Defense Department’s Inspector General, in a June report, said the Army made $2.8 trillion in wrongful adjustments to accounting entries in one quarter alone in 2015, and $6.5 trillion for the year. Yet the Army lacked receipts and invoices to support those numbers or simply made them up.

    As a result, the Army’s financial statements for 2015 were “materially misstated,” the report concluded. The “forced” adjustments rendered the statements useless because “DoD and Army managers could not rely on the data in their accounting systems when making management and resource decisions.”

    For those wondering, this is what $1 trillion in $100 bills looks like.

      I never cease to be amazed at how incompetent various branches of government can be.

      You would think after a few hundred years people would have found a way to make it efficient and accountable. Until such a time, the best government is the smallest government.

        Aug 20, 2016 20:09 PM

        The best government is one that knows its purpose: to protect the righteous and punish the wicked, according to the Word. Anything more or less than that is evil. Man doesn’t get to make the rules, he is supposed to administer them.

            I always wondered why stuff like 25.12 is still in the books if it means nothing.
            The other thing I find odd is the “new covenant” why is some old book stuff still included?
            Actully other than the history I dont understand how any previous religion stuff is included but…what the heck.

            Im not “yankin ur chain” I really wonder, makes no sense to me.

            When I was growing up, I found people to beleive that “god” wrote the bible….the “word”, now it seems people figure people wrote it.

            In any case, if you refer to myself as not knowing scripture, ur right I guess, and when I look, I find 25.12 stuff, paychopathic in my opinion, and if it was written by god….

            Anyway, why is that stuff not gone if it doesnt count for anything? or, its just wrong.

            Just curious.

            Aug 22, 2016 22:28 AM

            Through the burning bush, to Moses ,God spoke. (Old Testament.) Is one example that God’s word was passed down through man or the prophets. TODAY,THE INSPIRED Word,through the Holy spirit.. Remember,Jesus,(one of the trinity (father,son and holy spirit) came which was foretold ,through the prophets ,written by prophets .

            Aug 22, 2016 22:35 AM

            After reading Act 9, read Acts 28

            Aug 22, 2016 22:38 AM

            Pay attention to Acts 9:15,-

            Aug 22, 2016 22:40 AM

            Aug 22, 2016 22:47 AM

            Exactly B.

            Meanwhile, gold has still failed to break out and actually establish itself in a bull market pattern. As far as the monthly chart is concerned this is still just a bear market rally in metals with price unable to exceed 1400 USD on a monthly close even as gold turns back down.

            It looks very unlikely to make that final move during August either. Despite whatever flim-flam fantasy the gold retards keep perpetrating on the world, this is NOT a gold bull market until the chart actually says its a gold bull market.

            And maybe that’s why the “big money” has not really started entering the precious metals space in force and why the US Mint is suspending production of Silver Eagles. The retards want the world to jump aboard their fantasy before the evidence is even in but the big boys ain’t biting.

            Do we really need to wonder why they keep holding such an extreme short position?

            That’s a fact. I don’t need to make this stuff up to be right.

    This is why democracy is hopeless….

    What we are up against is the special interest effect. See https://www.masterresource.org/public-choice-economics/general-interest-effect/

    “The costs of a program may be diffused so widely that it isn’t worth the cost to organize people against it. If 300 million people pay taxes for a billion dollar subsidy, each pays only a few dollars. It costs money, time, and energy to identify rents, to explain to voters why they should care enough to vote against them, and to convince politicians that they should be removed. Democracies can fall prey to rent-seeking – unwilling to resist a million little bites from a million little parasitic programs. In societies that do not resist rent-seeking, individual success depends on the ability to manipulate government to the detriment of others.”

    Aug 20, 2016 20:05 PM

    There is a proposition in public choice economics called the special interest effect. It basically argues that government grows because, for most government programs, there are concentrated beneficiaries and diffused cost bearers. What this means is that the benefits of government programs will fall on relatively small, easily definable and therefore organizable groups, i.e. special interests, while the costs will be thinly spread across the population as a whole.

    For politicians who support a program, this means that it is relatively easy to point to those who will benefit from it. For those opposing the program, it is much more difficult to identify in any precise manner who will be bearing the costs. And even when this is possible, the costs for each individual will be so small that no one will have a strong incentive to expend resources working against it. The concentrated beneficiaries on the other hand will have a much greater incentive to put resources into lobbying in favor of the program. For this reason, new government programs, like, for example, free community college for “all,” become politically appealing.

      Yet democracy includes uneducated people too, and who outnumbers whom?

      I for one never really learned to read for example, and I get a vote, not that it counts. lol

    EITHER THE OLYMPICS CHANGE OR THEY TAKE ANOTHER VACATION FROM HISTORY

    THREE THINGS HAVE TO CHANGE IN THE OLYMPICS

    1. The countries getting together to compete against each other is not PC.
    The PC Globalists are using best efforts to destroy national identity and culture.
    The Globalist cabal will soon say it does not matter what country you are from.
    There will be only one flag at the opening ceremony. No athletes marching in a country’s uniform. They will all be world athletes competing to be the best. The winner will not hear national anthem but some to be determined earthly song about being one world. No need to raise a flag as all three athletes flags are the same.

    2. No more men and women’s sport. Just show up whoever you are and compete as you are. One bathroom for all. One competition for all. Gender distinctions are so yesterday. Just watch the “Female” 800 meter race today. It does not matter what you are or how you identify…. just be the best at it. 1 gender = no separate gender sports.

    3. No more medals. It should be good enough to place a wreath of olive branches on the winners head. The Globalist are making best efforts at deemphasizing the value of gold and silver. Awarding them as an achievement just reminds the masses that they should actually be sought after. With so much Madison Avenue effort having been exerted to make the precious metals meaningless the Olympic reminder they are valuable needs to end. Give them a piece a paper redeemable for nothing and an olive wreath crown.

    The whole five ring Olympic thing is getting stale. One world! One gender! One digital currency cashless world! The Olympics will neccessarily soon look much different or take another vacation from history.

    Have a great rest of the weekend.

        Thanks Pete. Yes, the first thing I did was go and look at their corporate presentation and looked at their news flow over the last 2 years. With IAMGOLD as their 50/50 JV partner, it makes their odds of success much better, along with a path to a potential takeover once the drilling has proved the thesis.

        Yes Tomagold just had some press out and Canarc is figuring out what direction they want to go now that they sold their key asset. I believe Marty or Bonzo follows Golden Arrow and it’s had a good run lately. I am not familiar with Kaizen Discovery.

        Much appreciated.

        A couple of interesting Copper/Gold plays, partnered with the Japanese consortium, and the management team and board are ex- Rio Tinto, Ivanhoe mines, Trevali, and Turquoise Hill guys. Nice. I’ve spent all weekend reviewing and revising miners with a big exposure to Zinc, but over the next week or two my plan is to review about 40 different copper companies, so I’ll throw this one in mix….

    Call me a kill-joy but each gold medal contains a mere 6 grams of gold (just over one fifth of an ounce with a value c $300), along with 394 grams of silver (value c $318). Much less hassle and better value to buy gold and silver in ounces!
    Then there’s the victory tax to consider….

    It’s nice to finally see someone on the site actually set the record straight on John Maynard Keynes whose name has been wrongly associated with “QE to infinity” via the insanity of Bernake/Yellen/Walls Street and Krugman who have “QE-ed” the west into bankruptcy. Thanks Mr Martenson! Keynes is rolling in his grave!!!

      I pointed that out here years ago but it doesn’t change the that fact Keynesian economics is unsound and a tool for tyranny.

    There is a video on Drudge called ” Driving Through Detroit At Night”. I didn’t want to provide a link to it because of the graphic scenes. It shows what happens to society when you ghettoize people, take away the jobs, and give them welfare and food stamps. This is why the economy (JOBS) is the number one factor in any election.

    If The Globalist’s get their one world government this could be our future when a small handout is given out in equal amounts to all the proletariat in the world. Remember there won’t be countries anymore but the elite will have all the power and ninety per cent of the world’s wealth.

    I accuse President Obama of being a Traitor to the U.S.A..
    He is, without doubt, attempting to turn the US into a third world country.
    His hatred for the country, inherited from his father is documented ans well known.
    It is well publicized in Latin America that the US will not turn away migrants, especially unaccompanied minors or mothers and children.

      Beware of The Hun, they do not want normalcy and peace, they were responsible for World War 1 and 11. Under Bismarck they unified Prussia and Saxony with Blood and Iron, and Krupp steel. Germany is always looking to impose it’s will on others, whether militarily or by economic means, they see themselves as the masters. DT

            One could make a case it was actually the Brits responsible for the wars. See Engdahls ‘A Century of War’ for instance.

            And which group wields extremely disproportionate influence over both the Brits and Americans?

        The Last Shake Down.

      Aug 21, 2016 21:46 PM

      Tonight’s 1.5% decline is not a cliff!
      Even the 10% decline from the July 4th high is not a cliff….it is a 6 week 10% retracement after a 6 month 50% rally. I see it as being healthy….especially considering the outsized short positions bringing pressure on the position for the whole period.

        Aug 21, 2016 21:12 PM

        The next 6 to 8 weeks according to the cycle sould be down. The technicals on silver look mayor weak. Silver is breaking a fairly big trading zone. We’ll see how it plays out.

        It’s just another buying opportunity for those that like the downside as much as the upside.

          Aug 21, 2016 21:11 PM

          I look forward to things going back on sale to add back positions that I trimmed into the strength. Sounds just fine to me.

        The distinct difference between the behavior of gold and silver is very informative. There is a shortage of physical silver, by all appearances.

    “It’s Not Some Barbarous Relic” – Trump Adviser Urges Return To Gold Standard

    Donald Trump is no policy wonk.

    He is pitching himself as the best man for the presidency based on his track record as businessman, and his ability to surround himself with the “best” people—not on his knack for writing white papers. This, of course, means that it is important for voters to understand whom he is surrounding himself with, and what sort of ideas they hold.

    With this in mind, Fortune reached out to Dr. Judy Shelton, one of two economists recently named to Donald Trump’s economic advisory team, and the only woman to hold that title. Shelton is a senior fellow and co-director of the Atlas Sound Money Project, whose mission is to promote the principles of sound money and raise awareness of what they see as the inherent problems of our current monetary system. Dr. Shelton first rose to prominence when she predicted the economic collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, two years before it transpired.

    Olympic Gold Medals Have Almost Zero Gold In Them

    The 2016 Rio Summer Olympic Games are already 51% over budget, with the total cost expected to be in the $4.6 billion range. With that in mind, Visual Capitalist’s Jeff Desjardins notes that the organizers have tried their best to cut costs.

    One area of compromise?

    The Olympic gold medals, which weigh 500g (1.1 lbs) and are 85mm (3.3 in) in diameter, are gold in name only.

    OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALS HAVE ALMOST ZERO GOLD IN THEM

    Today’s infographic comes from JM Bullion and it shows the real amount of metal in gold, silver, and bronze medals, along with the hypothetical cost of awarding solid gold to winning athletes.

      Mark and Archdeacon Andrew,

      The fact that the gold medal is debased….necessarily!
      Adds to the reason the IOC elites have painted themselves in a corner.
      These IOC types are the same group that shows up in Davos.
      They do not want gold to be desired.
      Gold being sought after interferes with their fractional reserve fiat scheming.
      Simply put if people desire gold it makes the monetary mayhem Ponzi scheme all the more obvious.
      Now these elites like young people getting together under the Olympics Rings (Designed for the Belin Nazi Berlin Olympics). But they need to Segway out from having these athletes seek and desire gold. They cannot have the masses see the award of even a symbolic debased gold medal. The desire for gold is bad in the world of Central Bank Monetary Mayhem!
      Awarding the winner Gold needs to change.
      Walking under a national flag needs to change. The borders need to be erased……after-all!
      Why have two genders compete and only one bathroom for the audience.

      Soon….. it will be announced by the IOC…..No more Gold….Silver…Bronze..
      The awards will be something less threatening the fiat fancy elite.

      Soon,,,,It will be announced by the IOC ….no more national flags and anthems….just show up and compete.

      Soon…it will be announced by the IOC….One Olympic World….One Olympic Flag…..
      One Bathroom for all…..One non-gender competes.

      Wait for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
