A bit of an odd day in the US markets.  

Gold and silver were down a bit.

The Dollar was down.

Stocks were largely unchanged.

The VIX held steady at a recently lower level.

The US has given its foreign policy over to bribing and naked bullying.

Wars, tariffs, erosion of liberty, the lack of integrity in the financial system, and threats to the law from the impulsiveness of narcissists and a lawless few.

It's almost as if the markets are waiting to see what happens next.

Well, more information about all this is clearly on its way.

It looks to be a rough time ahead, and optimism is difficult to maintain.

And that is where hope and faith in providence comes in.

Have a pleasant evening.
