Empires, for example, rise and fall. There are no exceptions. They get ‘good’ leaders and ‘bad’ leaders. But mostly they get leaders who do what they have to do to take the Empire where it needs to go
The medical industry was corrupted and ruined by simply trying to monetize everything to the maximum degree possible. Drug development focused on creating a money maker, not alleviating suffering or curing disease. The results speak for themselves. All other concerns took a back seat, the biggest one being healthcare. The same thing has happened, is happening, in Big Tech. When the question becomes “how can we make the biggest money sucking behemoth out of this, you get a Nvidia. When the question becomes “how can we solve the problem in the best and most efficient way for the marketplace or the customer?”, you might get a Deep Seek(assuming it is real). The point here is that an obsessive focus on money as the reason for your existence, to such a degree that all other reasons are simply handed to the marketing department to become propaganda, results eventually in the destruction of your enterprise.
Yes, and now they’re trying to combine both AI and healthcare… If you look closely at the picture of hands created by AI, would you really want to have a shot into you created by AI? Personally, I would not.
The bottom center one was designed to make money. It's the a I inspired viagra. The ones with the 25 little fingers was also inspired by open source data submitted by fifteen year olds on their first date.
Morning. Has anyone actually utilized Deep Seek for an extended period and analyzed the results for accuracy/efficacy/utility?
I have no idea and no time to bother right now, but it smells a bit like Ms. Holmes and the magical Theranos machine. Lots of "in-the-know" investors making lots of money off the results pending from perceived fear and/or the pending opportunity provided by Deep Seek...
Good one Starboard about, as you put it, “…smells a bit like Ms. Holmes and the magical Theranos machine.” All smoke and mirrors. And, smoke on the battlefield is used for…?
Americans, wake up! Smell the coffee! Get all your arses up & ready for action. Get on the phone. Get to messaging. Get in contact with the elected in the district of corruption. Let them know you are alive and kicking and inspecting what you expect. Example:
Senator Dick Durbin has expressed concerns about U.S. Treasury futures being cleared in London under the Bank of England's oversight. In an August 2024 letter to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), he warned that foreign clearing could undermine U.S. regulators' authority, potentially destabilizing U.S. sovereign debt markets and increasing borrowing costs. Durbin highlighted risks of foreign regulators prioritizing domestic interests in crises and urged the CFTC to evaluate these implications thoroughly.
The implications? What the whaaa Mr Durban? Senator, y’all need to get more assertive!
True. Very obscure. But basically, there’s a push to bring the clearing of United States of America’s Treasury futures to London; under the control of the Bank of England, which never has been done before. It is unprecedented. And no serious country has their sovereign debt cleared in a different country. Period!
Rightly so, Durbin has raised concerns about potential risks to U.S. regulatory authority and market stability. Durbin's properly focused on safeguarding U.S. financial sovereignty & he’s correctly divergent from dumb assed broader regulatory efforts to “balance global integration with risk management”
Holy c%@#, the sleepy muttonheads in DC finger twiddling ignore monetary sovereignty? BS. In the one square mile of London City limits, what’s there? Banks, yes. MI6, yes. Chatham House’s Royal Institute of International Affairs, yes. Nice cozy safe zone for U.S. interests, [?].
And, btw, if silver closes today @ $31.92 it’s a breakout; adjust that number up daily by .01 as silver’s 50-day oscillator has a massively clear structure. And, thank you MSA.

Silver is Taking the Stairs Up
ASI
Share:
"The market takes the stairs up, and the elevator down."
Have you ever heard this quote?
This saying points to common investing wisdom that holds true in most cases.
It touts the idea of buying cautiously during an initial price increase, and only investing more substantially once the price has stabilized or pulled back slightly after a significant jump. By waiting for the trend to establish, you potentially avoid buying at a peak price inflated by excitement or speculation, prioritizing intrinsic value over short-term price fluctuations, and allowing you to potentially buy at a more reasonable price point.
With silver, the trend in the current bull market is now well established, but far from its potential. Now is the time to climb the silver staircase to higher prices.
In 2020, silver shot skyward, ending the year with gains of 48%. It spent the subsequent years cooling off in a period of consolidations, but in 2024, silver was back at it.
Silver hit 12 year highs in October of 2024, then cooled off in November and December, finishing out the year with gains of 21%. Not bad. But far from future price expectations for the white metal...
As we've been saying for the past year, there is a real opportunity in silver with current market conditions.
In the last bull market, silver rose 1000% from the lows, while gold peaked at 650%. Gold is already aiming towards it's next set of record price closes above the $2,800 level, while silver has yet to tap it's previous market high of $50 an ounce. But by the time silver reaches that key technical level, a large portion of the opportunity will already be gone.
We’re watching Mr Ag Market together; ergo, now the new MSA # is $31.93
Silver prices are currently rangebound, with the [GSR] gold/silver ratio hovering around the 91:1 level as of this writing.
If silver breaks above $30.68, it could advance towards the next resistance level between $30.85 and $31.00. The short-term Stochastic Oscillator is at 50, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 46.
I tested it to see if it could implement a custom eliptic curve signature algorithm in JavaScript that ChatGPT 0.1 Preview was not able to perform a few months ago. It was able to and you can see the steps it went through to produce the code. The updated ChatGPT 0.1 can now solve the problem using a paid subscription. The Deep Seek answer was free on their website.
I chatted with Deep Seek about a few technical subjects of which I have some knowledge. I don't know how well that matches up with the typical use case for AI, but its responses were equal or better than those of Chat GPT.
Bill, I haven’t checked in personally with any of those who shorted NVDA, although it looks like a bloodstain stain on the market carpet today - https://finviz.com/map.ashx?t=sec
Today’s messiness with PM’s is explained as, “….we have the Chinese New Year holidays from Jan. 28 to Feb. 3. In the past two weeks, the Banks (aka “SWAPS”) have increased their net short position in Gold by 15%, the second biggest increase in ten months. At the same time, Gold rose just 2%. It looks like they are trying to cap or slow the move up in Gold ahead of the closure of the China markets beginning next week. Credit to SprotMoney here - https://tinyurl.com/28vp84b4
You wonder how the chinese communists have surpassed us on AI you need to look no further than the biden admin. They focused on DEI initiatives in govt and business instead of keeping America ahead. Also, remember all those pictures of hunter and the big guy posing with chicomm leaders.
BG: Yes blame Biden. Trump did everything with perfection (not really). You are blind, deaf and dumb when it comes to our 34 felony counts president Trump.
This morning, I had a little exchange with DeepSeek:
𝗠𝗲: Who are the top 10 institutional landowners in the USA?
DeepSeek found 28 results but stalled for about a minute before replying:
𝗗𝗦: Oops! DeepSeek is experiencing high traffic at the moment. Please check back in a little while.
𝗠𝗲: Lol. Could use a few more GPUs, could you?
𝗗𝗦: Haha, you're absolutely right! A few more GPUs would definitely help speed things up. 😄 Let me know how I can assist you—I'm here to help, even if I might need a little extra processing power sometimes!
It’s a small reminder that the demand for GPUs, particularly Nvidia’s, isn’t going away anytime soon. Platforms like DeepSeek can’t run on goodwill and bandwidth alone.
But the market, as it often does, seems to be making decisions before all the information is in. Nvidia lost 16% of its value in a single day—as if the entire demand for GPUs had evaporated overnight. These knee-jerk reactions can create opportunities for those who are patient.
And maybe that WIRED article, conveniently published on a Saturday, just didn’t make it across the desks of key decision-makers in time. Timing, after all, is everything—but so is understanding the full picture before rushing to judgment.
“…a man preparing to take on the gravest responsibility known to humans would launch a new crypto currency named after himself,…You’d think he’d have other things on his mind.”…and don’t forget the watch named after him that he shills, too: Best one you’ll ever own. None better. You won’t want anything else.
Yes, I do find these things off-putting (but, like Kamelface and the Dems were a better choice? YGBSM.)
So, I’ll look past some shameless crypto and wrist-watch promoting. Trump HAS hit the ground running, though. And any Dems all butt-hurt by it just makes it just that much more enjoyable :-)
Dan, I went to the Deep Seek website and there does appear to be a cost for using it based on input and output. So does this mean that anything we would like to create would be open to Chinese scrutiny?
You're a bit off the mark with the Roman Empire. It didn't disappear in the 5th century, it just moved East where it lasted for another 1000 years. It retained a lot of influence over its former Western provinces until about 800, when Charlemagne put a stop to all that.
And what about the Chinese Empire? It started about 2300 years ago and in spite of many ups and downs it's still going strong. Beat that if you can Mr. Trump.
Any thoughts of the timing on this “release” ? Shot across the bow to the new administration? Kill shot will be to increase reduction in US treasury purchases. 3D Chess all the way
If you are waiting for the Stock Market to crash during the presidency of The Son of Fred, The American Savior, Lord Trump, then please don’t hold your breath, you will turn into Bluey, the Australian Cattle Dog.
President Trump will save the world from destruction in an ultimate test of divine light. As obliteration awaits in the darkness of Night.
The Elite Secret Suits from the Blue Party desperately tried to close Beelzebub’s Portal.
They conducted a clean sweep of the gateway perimeter, attempting to replicate an Area 51 sweep.
They are confident that the protocols and instructions sent out across all 50 states have successfully sealed the deal.
Hahahaha, nothing can be further from the truth, you cannot seal a portal that you cannot see. It’s like throwing darts in the dark.
The energy transcends through the tunnel of time, the darkness revives the teeth clench of Sarah, the crow sits on her shoulder. On the Horizon is a wicked mirage, summoned to enter the Earth through the portal. The Harris eye sparkle leads the world into Armageddon, the seed was planted.
The Son of Fred, a.k.a. the Donald, will be getting the blame for the unholy spitstorm. Though it will not be totally his fault. We both know it E. Solomon, this is one of the slowest moving train full of dumpster fires onboard a moving wreck. And, it’s going to derail. Not if. When?
Hey, Mr. Solomon. I would not be so sure about the stock market crash. I think these people in charge have every intention of pulling the rug out from under Mr. Trump. If the Fed can engineer a big enough crash, there might or might not be another Republican president for a generation. We do live in interesting times, and we will see.

Should have said “we didn’t” 🤣…nice to see the bounce today, that was quicker than I anticipated.
Does Deep Seek have a persuasive (wink), blind spot-inducing Helen-of-Troy type fronting it? Best always.
If it does, I sincerely hope the carpet matches the drapes this time...
