Bullion Banks Sell Even More Silver: Do They Have It?
By Clint Siegner
Anyone with a naked short in the silver futures market risks getting squeezed by physical buying. Demand for delivery of COMEX silver bars is rising, even as the paper price of the metal fell more than 4.5% last week.
Silver shorts sold contracts representing a whole lot more silver than they have available to deliver again last week.
The disconnect between paper prices and physical demand is getting more ridiculous by the day.
It is also getting more dangerous for COMEX market participants – long and short. The COMEX functions on confidence, which can vanish suddenly.
It will happen when long contract holders discover, en masse, the paper they bought cannot be redeemed for the actual metal as expected. Instead, they get cash settled or, in the event of an outright default, they get nothing at all
Operation Twist
Rule of Law Collapsed in USA – Martin Armstrong
By Greg Hunter
Legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong says now that the stolen election is over, get ready for lawlessness to reign. We start with the Supreme Court that refused to hear the Trump case on Pennsylvania voting fraud.
There are three more 2020 Election voter fraud cases pending at the nation’s highest court. Armstrong says, “I don’t think they are going to take any of them. Look, the rule of law has absolutely collapsed in the United States. It’s just a joke at this point. . . . You swear an oath to uphold the Constitution. It’s not whenever you feel like it. . . . This is not only a denial of due process but the civil rights of everybody in the country.
They effectively said Pennsylvania changed the rules against the (state) legislature in the middle of an election, and we are not going to hear the case.

Crypto Offers New Way to Collect Income From Technology
By Greg Wilson
Imagine creating an invention that would go on to spawn billions in sales… But not getting your fair share.
That’s the case of Lonnie Johnson, a life-long inventor.
It started in high school with his first invention, a four-foot-tall robot with operating hands.
At the time, 1968, it was quite an impressive feat. And it won Lonnie his high school science competition. He’s been an inventor ever since.
In 1979, he got his first patent on a device he called the Digital Distance Measuring Instrument. Without getting into the technical details, it’s the foundational technology for CDs and DVDs.
At their peak, CDs generated over $13 billion in sales annually. For DVDs, it was $16 billion.

By Steve Sjuggerud
Mania and euphoria have gripped the markets. The Melt Up is here, my friend.
That both excites and terrifies me.
It's exciting because the biggest gains are going to bold investors right now. And they could continue in the months ahead.
It's also terrifying because I know how things will end for a lot of the folks getting rich right now. And it ain't pretty.
It's too easy to fall in love with your stocks in times like these. And that can lead to crucial mistakes at the worst possible time.
One of those mistakes is not knowing what to do when you hit a stop. But it's really as simple as you probably expect.

Nuclear Winter: There Will be Power
This week a major winter storm ripped across most of the eastern United States.
It caused major electrical blackouts and endangered the lives of millions of Americans.
Texas, normally home to mild to mid winters saw temperatures dip below freezing and major snowstorms hit most of the state.

Texans without power were forced to warm up in cars, or run propane heaters in their houses.
As the grid failed, power prices to surged from $23 per MWh to over $7,400 in a matter of days.

The Next Big Wave of Crypto Profits Is Coming
By Teeka Tiwari
$100,000 gone in 2.5 hours…
Bob* felt robbed. He felt betrayed. Most of all, he felt powerless. (*Bob isn’t his real name. It’s an alias to protect his anonymity.)
Last month, Bob had a hunch his favorite crypto was going to pump higher. The night before, he loaded up… ready to make some quick profits.
The next day, Bob’s coin exploded 300% higher. He was sitting on a cool $100,000 gain in one day. Eager to take his profits, he started to log into his Kraken account.
And that’s when the nightmare began…
Again and again, Bob tried to log onto the exchange. But each time, he was greeted with an error message. He feverishly glanced at the price of his crypto on the computer screen. It was peaking… and now was the time to get out.

The perfect income strategy for market bulls
By Genia Turanova
Options traders have two enemies: time and volatility.
This is what we often hear when we first learn about this style of trading.
But, while it’s true for options buyers… it doesn’t apply to options sellers.
Rather the opposite. Options sellers benefit from the passage of time and heightened volatility.
Today, I’ll tell you why… and show you a popular method for generating income—one that could also help you time the market.
But first, a little trip back to the basics.
An option is a financial instrument that gives its owner the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a security at a specific price during a specific time period (until the option contract expires).
