Russia is a busted flush, their army has been shown up for what it is, poorly disciplined, poorly trained soldiers using outdated equipment, their navy is or what’s left of it is even worse, they have spent years and countless lives trying and failing to defeat their (much smaller) neighbour, they are now importing weapons from Iran & North Korea, they are humiliated and now resort to almost daily Nuclear threats, meanwhile NATO has not even fired a single bullet yet.

Their economy is garbage, I read that their GDP was lower than the Netherlands even before the invasion and sanctions.

I would say that Russian behaviour has already been factored into world markets including gold.

 

This  economic war is only just starting, ( the last 60+ years)  America has been very cute at suppressing nations, blatantly Cuba and Africa,  but also the slights of hand over all other countries  and they have done very well out of it.   We are now entering a war of new systems,  cashless CBDC's  all owned by American companies and then we have the BRICS nations on the other side.   I would never rule Russia out in any situation, as they have proven time and again they have the ability to endure where other nations would have crumbled.  

We all can feel change on the horizon and its coming at alarming speeds,  we are alive at the time where most of us will see the end of 5000 years of physical cash as a medium of exchange, but also the reality shift from the the real to the virtual.

Russia is just too damn rude and inconsiderate, putting it's border next to so many NATO bases

NATO bases in Ukraine = 0

NATO bases in Georgia = 0

NATO bases in Moldova = 0

all were invaded by Russia 🤨

Countries with NATO bases invaded by Russia = 0

It seems that being part of NATO and having NATO bases in your country might actually prevent your country being invaded by Russia 😎

Oh, that's a relief! For a minute I thought it might have some more profound meaning relevant to the conversation..!

I haven't got a firm grip of geopolitics at 23.38 on a day off tomorrow sadly 

Do we actually really know anything that is happening in the world 🌎 ? True and for real ???

We live in more or less a Jim Carey ' Truman World '

Where do we get our points of reference, news,info from ?

Take your points of reference from TV papers radio bookface 

You only get the scripted side of misery doom and gloom 

If we switched off from it all...........

What's happening in Russia? wouldn't know?

800,million boat people arrived yesterday. Did they ? .......really ???

Trump or Kamala are leading in land of giant fictional mice, cinnamon dental floss and mass school shootings. ........ ??

Wouldn't know ........

Live for yourself, look after your nearest and dearest. Make coin/wage to help you, your family, your staff, your parent's. 

' Life happens while your doing other things'  as John Lennon said

What's happening for me? 

I'm having a midnight walk along the shore side of the north sea,enjoying quiet and the salt air 

And lack of ' normals' being out and about. 

I may even have ten mins lying In a sand dune glancing up pondering the wonders of the world and vastness off the cosmos 

Don't listen to me though, work tomorrow or strictly dancing on cakes is on rerun on iPlayer to see if Chantelle got through to the next round

There is a reasonable chance of hitting GBP ATH’s by Friday close.

Only around a tenner for GBP ATH.  But will gold be able to punch through 1940 and sustain a higher price?
