@sugarbets_ @michaelmalice @grok Grok did miss one critical assessment of Mr. Malice…he is humble too…😂

@michaelmalice @grok help objective readers of this thread understand why Michael is wrong here. Why chaos theory rules and his Einstein story is misplaced.

this is how einstein figured out some of his ideas he asked himself what would happen if you turned on a flashlight while running at the speed of light you would tell him " LOL ok einstein that's not possible"

@BrianKuszmar Thank you Brian

@Pirate_Knights No, just past historical evidence. A more recent low-level attack here apnews.com/article/cyber-…

@Sorenthek @TFL1728 Then why should we listen to anyone Vince?

@TFL1728 Lolol. Everybody lies. I don’t play favorites.

Shockingly. They lied.

@TFL1728 @Sorenthek Statecraft indeed Luongo

@Sorenthek Me either. Of course we lie. It’s called statecraft. What I can’t understand is why so many people think it’s only us?

Michael! Thank you for sharing some of your analysis for FREE during so many podcasts since first discovering you two years ago. I invested accordingly in 2024 and 2025 and have been very fortunate! Even with the current trends things are very good. Remember…the silent majority often are silent in their support.

Hilarious😂 And accurate. That's the Twitter peanut gallery. They never bought so they missed the entire upside, but if their rabid replies are to be believed, they top-ticked the market with their puts. And if you didn't also do that clearly you must be some kind of moron. Meanwhile GDX went up 440% since the 2022 lows.

@Sorenthek Saddle up, ride for the brands

Something Eric and I are considering for the fun of it. 👇

@caroljsroth I’m sorry Carol, shouldn’t have picked your nose addiction to comment.

@caroljsroth Stick to your plan, it’s nothing to sneeze at

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

@jasonc_nc I am fascinated about your fire department modernization posts. Would like to visit with you more and share some ideas

@BrianKuszmar @Sorenthek We just broke back above $80!!! lol

@BrianKuszmar @Sorenthek And Michael Oliver predicted a correction before resuming up again….both are wise men

My feed is quiet, @Sorenthek did remind everyone, don't start your victory dance yet. I thought $85 was going to be bottom- lol

@KingKong9888 Thesis: It’s practically beneficial to the mainland and the smugglers if they are successful…win/win for China…

Yes, the arbitrage opportunity between silver prices in mainland China and Western markets (e.g., London spot) is very real. Smuggling silver into mainland China from Hong Kong requires considerable effort due to the metal’s bulk and weight relative to its fiat value per unit, along with strict customs enforcement and associated risks. This arbitrage becomes viable and attractive only when the mainland China silver price sustains a significant premium over Western benchmarks; which has indeed been the case consistently over the past two months, driven by intense domestic demand, speculative buying, and supply constraints in China (with reported local premiums reaching $8–17+ per ounce in recent data, even after accounting for VAT). Recent enforcement actions, such as Hong Kong customs seizures of smuggled silver (e.g., 219 kg concealed in food cans at the border in late January 2026), underscore both the persistence of these flows and the challenges involved. #Gold #Silver

@garysavage1 In a Yoda voice…money it is…currency it may not be…much to learn young Padawan…

Here's a test for you. Take a couple of silver eagles to the store and try to buy your groceries with them. Or to the gas station and fill up your car. Come back and tell me how that went. Now exchange your silver eagles for dollars and go to the store or the gas station. I'm willing to bet this time you came back with the goods. Tell me again how silver is money. Silver is an asset and one that is in a huge bull market, but it is not money in our modern world. We are never going to go back to silver coins, and unless we do silver is not going to return to being "money". Other than an infrequent barter where you agree with another party to trade some silver for a specific product silver will never function as money again, anymore than bitcoin or shares of the S&P will be money. They are all assets that have fluctuating value but they are not money.

@garysavage1 Why is it important for you to make this assertion? Gresham’s law proves otherwise. Practically and legally silver remains money. Why else would so many States have passed laws affirming silver as money in the past five years?

Silver is not money (although it used to be before 1971). Silver is just a semi precious metal. You can't use it to to buy anything until you first trade it for dollars. This is just another example of buying into a narrative. All assets cycle between extreme undervaluation and extreme overvaluation. This includes precious metals, and it includes the dollar. 3 years ago everyone hated, absolutely loathed mining stocks. I said at the time that at some point even really crappy businesses can get too cheap and you have to buy. Fast forward three years and now look where we are. Miners and metals are well on their way to extreme overvaluation. Our job as investors and traders is to be smart enough to recognize when something is too cheap and also when it is too expensive. Doesn't seem like it should be that hard, except humans are very susceptible to repetition. If we hear something often enough we start to believe it's true no matter how absurd. This doesn't just apply to the idiots that were walking around with a mask thinking they were protecting themselves from a virus, but also to emotional gold bugs that buy into the most ridiculous propaganda about hyperinflation and the dollar losing 97% of it's value. When gold and silver get too expensive and the dollar gets too cheap I absolutely will trade my gold and silver for dollars. Then I will go looking for something else to invest in, something that is too cheap like miners were 3 years ago. We have to finish this parabolic phase first though. I still have my piece of cake $250 target on silver so even though metals are getting expensive and the dollar is getting cheap they aren't so extreme that I'm ready to reverse course just yet. We need a correction and then the second phase of the parabola before I'll be ready to jump ship.

🚨SILVER WHOLESALERS NO BID ON 90% SILVER? 🚨 🎪SD Bullion CEO Says “Wholesale Silver Market Has Become AN ABSOLUTE CIRCUS!” 🎪 “This week was pretty incredible. As I was alluding to last night, the wholesale markets were an absolute circus. It’s becoming increasingly obvious that many large participants are either at - or very near- their maximum credit terms. Money velocity is extremely high. What really stood out was the complete lack of bids from many refiners and large wholesalers on 90% silver. That’s something we have never seen since our inception - in any market- let alone one with record demand from a revenue standpoint. Why? There are a few theories floating around, but the one I tend to agree with is this: 90% silver is increasingly not being accepted by refiners to be melted into other forms. There’s a surge of new investors who want newly minted coins rather than older circulation silver, & the time lag involved in sending 90% to a refiner ties up already-stressed credit lines until the metal is melted and payment is received. At the same time, a lack of available financing is forcing other wholesalers to dump inventory as quickly as they get it. So even though a coin and bar shortage is clearly brewing - & deliveries on products like American Silver Eagles are getting delayed - we’re still seeing some secondary products trade under spot. That’s despite the fact that SD Bullion could literally wipe out that inventory (and we have been) with a single phone call, simply because there’s no real depth behind it. On top of that, the cost to maintain hedging accounts has skyrocketed, which further limits how much inventory firms can carry on their shelves. Going into the weekend, predicting SD Bullion’s sales volume (and therefore our long position) was a complete wildcard. New investor interest has never been higher - yet paradoxically, very few people still have any real understanding of precious metals. To me, that suggests this market still has legs. Enjoy your weekend and we will see everyone back for the Sunday open.” Dr. Tyler Wall President & Founder, SD Bullion, Inc.

@KingKong9888 Speaking as a non vindictive kidult I will hang out and learn. The positive thing about negative trolls is they tell you, by their frequency and nastiness, when you are over the true target….

I just got a verification of this story from a HK stationed mainland China investment banker. Interesting indeed. My X account is for people who want to learn. Vindictive Kidults can show themselves out. #Gold #Silver 🔥🔥🔥

@goldseek What is his fair share?

Time for Elon to pay his fair share…
