How's your gold doing at the moment @doobin. Fair to say unsurprisingly in the last few weeks my index funds have been dropping at a rate similar to when Trump was throwing tariffs around this time last year. Only this time I can't see things recovering quite as quick😕
Everything is down currently. Rather unsetettling. Miners have taken a double whammy due to the price of oil. Gold by rights should be higher with all the war uncertainty. However, high oil prices strengthen the dollar as there is more demand for it to buy oil. And of course money has been flowing out of all commodities into oil.

Nevertheless, the war will need to be paid for, and that only means one thing- printing dollars.

Anyone else following the SpaceX float?
Absolutely pathetic the commentary from the MSM...
If it was Anyone else or woke idiots like gates and all the rest ... They would be praising how successfully are...and yet just because it's musk they can't bring to say anything complimentary.
Meanwhile, he's just created approximately 4,000 millionaires they reckon!

at one time I was convinced he was 'not of this world' / had alien connections / maybe a time traveller ..... some of the tech he was/has come up with was just WOW!! ... he's achieved what NASA tried for 50+ years to do, in returning his rockets to the ground safely he even has an odd look about him

How is this float going to effect the trackers. When i looked a few weeks ago my vls100 and another HSBC global equity fund I have were both at all time highs, despite Iran and Ukraine 🤷‍♂️
