Is Silver Next? -- January 13, 2021

Link here

Over at social media sites, there is talk that silver traders are the next ones to be squeezed:

Note: the frenzy include silver coins. We've talked about this before. Whoo-hoo. Link here.

The numbers to watch:

  • tonight and pre-market tomorrow morning: $30
  • before the end of the week: $35

I was quite disappointed with a commentator who I have really respected over the years. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. The initial rules official supported the golfer. Later, the head of the rules committee supported the golfer. The CBS announcer has egg all over his face. The commentator, a retired PGA golf champion, won a measly six championships over his entire career. Perhaps not even at the mid-point of his career, the golfer in question has nine major PGA wins under his belt.

The sports commentator ended his commentary yesterday suggesting that if the winner wins by one stroke, this golf tournament would forever be blemished. In fact, the winner won by five strokes over five others. 

Later, February 4, 2021: commentators give golfer a pass despite huge homophobic slur during recent tournament. So, the commentators manufacture a non-story about one golfer, and give another golfer a pass despite his language. His language resulted in some of his sponsors quickly dropping him, including Ralph Lauren. Double standard, much?

    1. It's kind of funny. Had "this" not come up, this would have been one of the most boring tournaments ever.
