Coronavirus: UK Parents Demand ALL Schools OPEN September, 7 Million Children Abandoned by Teachers / Politics / Educating Children
By: N_Walayat
Britain's Schools have betrayed Britain's children and students after having embraced all the governments lockdown and then refused to reopen schools in June as demanded by Boris Johnson's government with noise eminat6ing from the highly unionised cowardly bunch that they are eager to continue their 6 month holiday during September in response to which Boris Johnson issued a statement “Keeping our schools closed a moment longer than absolutely necessary is socially intolerable, economically unsustainable and morally indefensible,”
Whilst the whole of the NHS stood up and did their duty, teachers in large part have been found cowering at home with a glass of cheap white wine, hiding behind their union, finding any excuse to stay out of the classroom, all whilst collecting full pay. Shameful.

Silver Bull Market Update / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2020
By: Gary_Tanashian
Now, I have not gone raving silver bug on you. The title says “silver bull” because that is what silver is in, a bull market by definition of having taken out the 2016 high of 21.23. We targeted that point as a cyclical bull market gateway, silver cut through it like a knife through warm butter… and there you have it. A key higher high. I don’t apologize for any of the above. It is fact.
So let’s catch up on Gold’s wild little bro as it hangs tough below the NFTRH ultimate cyclical bull target, which has been the 24-26 long-term resistance zone (per the 3rd chart below). Silver made a violent hit and recoiled, but…

NATURAL GAS BEGINS UPSIDE BREAKOUT MOVE / Commodities / Natural Gas
By: Chris_Vermeulen
First, we want to say “It took long enough!” and we’re happy to see this upside move in Natural Gas. We had been calling this move for many months. Our predictive modeling systems and cycle systems suggested the extended bottoming formation in Natural Gas was an excellent opportunity for skilled technical traders. Today’s big move suggests the downside price pressure is dissipating and a new bullish price trend may push Natural Gas prices above $2.85 quickly.
Our research team spotted this potential setup in April and May articles where we correctly predicted an NG rally in April (it did!) and new upside targets for NG in May. We have been keeping our subscribers up-to-date with UNG as this bottom has played out.
The upside move in late April 2020 was a cycle move that we expected to continue a bit higher. It still presented a very nice opportunity for skilled traders to capture a 35% upside price swing. The current, deeper, price bottom near $1.43, represents a very deep rotational bottom in Natural Gas and the current upside price move may be just starting. Our researchers believe the initial target for this move is $2.85. After that level is reached, if the trend continues, a higher target near $3.65 could become a very real price target.

Could Gold Price Reach $7,000 by 2030? / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2020
By: Arkadiusz_Sieron
This bull market can be more positive than the previous one both for gold and the mining stocks.In the last edition of the Fundamental Gold Report, I analyzed various WGC’s reports on the gold market. Today, I will focus on the issues of Alchemist – the flagship publication of the London Bullion Market Associations – I was unable to discuss during the most acute phase of the pandemic and the following economic crisis.
I’ll start with the article “Is there a place of Gold Equities in a Gold Allocation?” by James Luke from issue no. 96. The Author poses title question because gold equities performed poorly relative to the gold prices over the last 10 or even 20 years, and “investors would have been better served staying well away.” Indeed, while the gold price is up more than 250 percent since 2005, the HUI Gold Index is just about 20 percent higher.

FOMC came, FOMC delivered what we knew they would, FOMC left and the machines drove the markets down and up for a couple days, leaving the situation largely as it had been. NDX near its highs, SPX holding the support of its EMA 20 and DJIA thus far successfully testing its moving average convergence (SMA 50 & 200).

How to develop your stock trading strategy / InvestorEducation / Learn to Trade
By: Submissions
Developing a trading strategy from scratch might seem an impossible task for the rookies. But if they know the common terms at trading, they can do so like a pro trader. The successful traders love to use their trading method as it syncs perfectly with their personality. You can buy the most expensive trading method in the marketplace, still, you won’t feel comfortable since the strategy is designed based on someone else personality. The developers design the system in such a way that it syncs with the personality of the developer.
We all know no one shares the same personality. So, those who are looking to become a profitable stock trader must learn to analyze the stock markets with their trading method. Let’s see how we can create a trading system like a pro.

By Justin Spittler : It’s the hottest social media platform on the planet. It’s growing faster than Facebook (FB), Twitter (TWTR), and Instagram. And it could come crashing down any day now.
Of course, I’m talking about TikTok. You may have heard of TikTok. You may even have a teenager suddenly singing and dancing around the house because of it.

ARE YOU LOVING YOUR SERVITUDE? / Politics / Coronavirus Depression

“A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude.” ― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” ― George Orwell, 1984

Gold Stocks Autumn Rally / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2020
By: Zeal_LLC
The gold miners’ stocks have rocketed higher this summer, smashing out of their usual summer-doldrums sideways grind. That atypical strength has been driven by gold steadily marching to major new secular highs, fueled by strong investment demand. This has carried gold stocks and the metal they mine back to their traditional strong season, which begins with robust autumn rallies usually accelerating in late summers.
Seasonality is the tendency for prices to exhibit recurring patterns at certain times during the calendar year. While seasonality doesn’t drive price action, it quantifies annually-repeating behavior driven by sentiment, technicals, and fundamentals. We humans are creatures of habit and herd, which naturally colors our trading decisions. The calendar year’s passage affects the timing and intensity of buying and selling.
Gold stocks exhibit strong seasonality because their price action mirrors that of their dominant primary driver, gold. Gold’s seasonality generally isn’t driven by supply fluctuations like grown commodities see, as its mined supply remains relatively steady year-round. Instead gold’s major seasonality is demand-driven, with global investment demand varying considerably depending on the time in the calendar year.

“Government Sachs” Is Worried About the Federal Reserve Note / Currencies / Fiat Currency
By: MoneyMetals
As July comes to a close, gold is up better than 9% for the month and has advanced nearly 30% for the year.
Gold’s record-setting rise has been driven by Federal Reserve stimulus, dollar weakness, and strong safe-haven investment demand. Even the Wall Street-centric financial media is taking note:
Financial News Anchor #1: Gold is shining once again, this morning. The spot price is touching all-time highs, as the dollar index sits around a two-year low.
Financial News Anchor #2: Those gold prices have hit an all-time high. The spot price of gold reaching a record.
Gold traditionally surges in times of turmoil. In this case, the economic impact of the pandemic, and those US/China tensions. They are sending investors to this safe haven. But the Federal Reserve's monetary easing measures, they also have a part to play in the price of gold.
