As a trend follower I tend to be skeptical of "contrarians" - all but @ carleygarner - it's her timing - impeccable!

Weakness in the U.S. Dollar is helping gold, says @StateStreetGA’s George Milling-Stanley, as he shares his outlook for the precious metal for the second half of the year with @FuturesBenL. 📊 #DX_F #GC_F twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

We got into it today! I get so fired up when @ rjpjr12 comes on the show because he speaks my language "trend" and "avoid the tic-for-tic trading" "step away from the intraday" - lot to take away from this conversation - have a listen!

@silver- 11-year highs today!. Here's a fun fact. If you paid 49.19 in 2011 and held it to 11.74 in 2020? Today you just got 1/2 back. Only took 13 years to get half your money back. VS #SP500 from 2011 to today? from 1200 to 5350- 4150 pts or up 345%. 🎤🫳

Kind of a gloomy morning in Chicago but if the number of fedex trucks on this bridge is any indication…going to be bright and sunny for the bulls today on the close $FDX

What Do Ya Know? - Turns out #fibonacci likes to trade #tenyearnote as well. We've just given back 1/2 of the 8 point rally #TYM4 from 105.11 (Oct 19th) to 113.12 (Dec.27) From the @BillAckman stone cold low- to the 10-month high. It was nice while it lasted. :)
