I must have missed something in the news today. Gold is up $50 per oz
to $1703.90 and silver is up $1.50 per oz to $33.28.

The European top level financial summit for Wednesday was postponed or
canceled late this morning (our time). Euro concerns/ bank capital
concerns are spooking paper investors. The system is totally broken
and sufficient bailouts can't be arranged to paper it over; on
somedays the boys can seemingly ignore that, on other days it upsets
them. This is the case for many months now. oly

Yup. It seems like once a week, usually Tuesday or Thursday, "Euro/European
concerns" are listed as the cause for the US market diving. Then, on the
other days no one seems worried anymore about Greece, Italy, etc. until it's
time to be concerned again. Amazing.

It's amazing that Europe's problems seem intractable and too expensive
for anybody to fix, and yet the Euro continues to trade at 1.38 or
1.39 USD. It is like Wylie Coyote waiting for gravity to kick in (and
hey, the Europeans probably say the same thing about the U.S.A. and
the greenback). oly

Well, FWIW, remember that the first Kingfish didn't do all that well.
Few dictators (or would-be dictators) die a "dry" death.

bodyguards, not the Doctor.
