 as a presentation of TFNN. The Tom O'Brien Show is produced every business day. Tom takes your phone calls toll-free at 1-877-927-6648 internationally at 727-873-7618. Let's go to my man, George in Newport, Richie George, what's going on, brother? Hello, Tom, good afternoon, how are you? I'm doing great, yourself? Yeah, great. I've been following you for the last two years, listening to your show. Well, thank you very much, I appreciate it, George. All the hard work you've done for us over the years. Well, I really appreciate you calling and saying hi. My pleasure, Tom. OK. Welcome to your show. Thank you, man. Have a great one. Have fun. Appreciate it, man. Now, Tom O'Brien. Folks, this is Tom O'Brien of TFNN. We're here five days a week. We go seven hours a day. We go 24 hours a day on the internet at TFNN.com. Always remember, folks, whatever you think about, whatever you bring about, whatever you focus on grows. Hope everyone's having a great day, safe day. We are kicking into 2024. How's that? Don't take anything personally. Transform your life. This is a good guide, man. When you refuse to take things personally, you avoid many upsets in your life. Your feelings of anger, jealousy, and even sadness will simply disappear if you don't take them personally. Mockin' wise, let's take a look at it out here. We have the Dow Industries up 60. Nasdaq up five. S&Ps down one and a half. Gold. Gold contract up $19.50. Trading at 2,080. You got Silver up 13 cents. $24.53. Light Sweet Crew down to buck 53. $74.04. A barrel. Notes and bonds. A 10-year note. Up 19 ticks. Trading 113.10. The third year up a full point. Plus 26 at 125.28. And King Dollar. King Dollar's down 502 ticks. That's $7,964. Euros at 111. Yens 141. British Pounds at 127 to one US dollar. Offer numbers 877. Nine, two, seven, six, six, four, eight. Give us a call, folks. Want to know what's going on in your world. And the world of the S&Ps, let's take a look at them. What do you have? Well, bottom line, bring the baby up. We got it in the liquid market. We know that. It's the holiday week. That being said, what you have out here, you got a flat market. You're at 475. So your ABC structure is 502. We bring this back. Now let's bring this back. Did it hit this thing yet, man? Let's see what we got here. No, it hasn't. It hasn't hit the high on the spy yet. But that would be, hold on one second, let's go to the SBX, because the spy pays the dividend, which would make the difference. And the cash, oh, I see what's happening. Hold on one second, hold on. I got to go back further than that. The cash. No, it hasn't hit the cash yet either. No, the cash. So cash is at 4771. It looks like it's, I wish I could see that far. High. Where's that high? 4818. Q's. Take a look at the NDX100. What do you have with the NDX? Bottom line, you've got another ABC structure up. Right now, the Q's are flat, up 19 cents. 410. That number there is 434. Now, notes and bonds. Now check this out, man. This move has been extraordinary, folks. There's no doubt it's been a one-way move. What has just happened here, you can see, you know, we're talking about a one-way move. We started with the 10 year and 105. And we're at 113.10. If you remember, the A to B equals C to D is 114 to 115. So now you get another wide price spread out here. Now you don't have a lot of volume. You can see the 767,000. That's light volume. There's no doubt about that. But that being said, bottom line, we are at. Now check this out. This was a big move in the 10 today. And if I bring this back, you can see in the last three months, 3.789 and then 4.990. Even though, this was opened during market hours. We went to actually 5.02, folks, okay? But that is one heck of a move in bonds. 1.2% to be exact, okay? Now, the kicker is here. Now watch this. This is the kicker. You had a five year note auction today of $58 billion. The market was at 3.8 and the... Let me get this right again because this is... This went way below the market meant. Meaning there was that much... Where are you again? There was that much demand. Come on, baby, where are you? There was this much demand. Here it is right here. Whoops, wrong one. I'll write this down. 3.8. I think it's 3.18. Yeah, it was... Let me get this exact one. Jesus, this drives me crazy when I do this, man. I had it right in front of me and then there's so many stories that pop up. Here we go, okay. Sorry about that, folks. Okay, so... Yeah, okay, so here it is. So the market... They thought they were going to get 3.815. Okay. They would have been happy meaning the government would have been happy... No, that's what the market was trading. 3.815. Well, they got it at 3.801. Now, that doesn't seem like a lot but it's a huge amount when you're talking $58 billion. And then what ended up happening because it was such a successful auction that the market itself decided that, hey, man, I'm going to stop buying the 10s, I'm going to buy the 5s, I'm going to buy the 2s, I'm going to buy the 30s, which took it down to 3.79. Pretty amazing. And then if we go over to the dollar and then tomorrow there's going to be another $58 billion that goes out on seven years. We go over the dollar, you're going to see, we're making our way right down to that bottom. We're getting right next to it now. What you're going to see is that, you know, there's support here but there's only support when we take a look at this. It traded down to this 99 for two weeks. You break the 99, man. I mean, the largest support in the dollar this is is down at the 9600. That's where the largest support is. You can see, you know, you traded there for three months. So we'll see where this shakes out, man. You know, this can bust this low in two seconds, get into that and then if we go over to the gold market we're going to see just the opposite, of course. And what ends up happening in gold, you know, gold right now is 2088 and, you know, we have this high volume spike at 2150, it's going to go there. Bigger issue, you know, does it get to the 2500? The big line is that you've got to remember something. Gold is a worldwide phenomenon. It's a store of value. If you look at the depreciations that are going on across the world, okay, just go look at Brazil. Brazil brought the Rio down 50% two weeks ago. Turkey just they just keep bringing it down, okay. And you've got to remember that. Where people just want value and they want the same price. So they're buying it, man. They're buying it hand over fist. Stay right there folks, we'll come right back.

The pressure is up 64, now it's except 12, this piece of flat. Let's just go... Turkey folks, I want to stay with this gold concept for a few bits here. What Turkey just did is that they raised their minimum rate for working by 49% because the inflation is so bad. Now just look at this though. Turkey, that's the lira. We're so lucky in the United States, man, it's crazy. It's not crazy, it's awesome, but I want to show you how this works and why gold, you know, is... it's a world deal, but when you see this much happening, this is like a heads up beyond belief. Now I'm just going to go back three years on the lira. So you can see, picture this if we were in the United States. Well three years ago, the lira was at seven. So seven lira to one US dollar. Okay? It's 29 today. 29. Okay? So the bottom line is that you talk about a robbery of your wealth. If you hold lira, you're done. It's not even close. Now Turkey is a big gold buyer. This is a big gold buyer. Now watch this, we'll go to the Brazil. We'll go to the real. Okay, one second. Where are ya? Whoops. We'll get this folks, one second. We'll have to pick that up the next one. The bottom line is that the real's done the same thing. It's getting a little bit stronger. But, you know, those... I could go on smaller countries too, but those are two monster countries that continue to have a hard time with inflation. Argentina, oh my god, I could go to Argentina. You know, the next break I'm going to pull up five or six of these currencies so you can see the deal of it. Because what you have is that even if you when you... if you hold the currency, you're done. What ends up happening of course is that it's only paper. It goes down whether it's 1.4% or 1.5% versus holding gold in all of these countries, forever. This is not a new phenomenon with them, okay? You know, they've... they've been used to inflation. So, there's just not only gold. It's any type of hard asset. You know, if you're living in an environment like that, you continually have to buy get rid of your cash as quick as you can and bring them into a hard asset because the hard asset is still going to be keep a value, keep its value, and they're all predicated bottom line on the aspect of what the metals are actually worth. And that's when you really see, this is what's so intriguing about it, about a store of value, that's when you really see our silver, our platinum. You know, let's stick with gold, because platinum's got killed, silver is highly volatile, but if we stick with gold for a second, what happens there is that you can see that's a value play and those folks aren't trying to make money on it. Those folks are just trying to have the same value proposition that they have and that the governments are not stealing their money. That's what it comes down to, man. You know, you take a look at it. I mean, if you were around when the Russian Empire imploded, was that 1980, 1983 or something like that, there were so many hundreds, well, there were millionaires and billionaires that broke apart ASAP and then all the oligots and billionaires were made, but that transfer was, well, since I've been in the market, it's the fastest transfer I've ever seen, meaning that just overnight, you know, poof, overnight hundreds of millions of dollars gone. It's like, okay, man, here we go. So, pretty intense. We take a look at the market out here. Let's go to the Dow and take a look at the Dow. So, the Dow, you know, this baby, inch by inch, you know, getting over the highs that were established last week, we put this on a longer-term basis, and what the Dow has done is that it's gone away from its high that it's taken out. And when you get away from the high that it's taken out, that's a big plus, man. That's a big plus. Now, the S&Ps haven't made the high yet. The NASDAQ hasn't gone away from the high yet. You want to see them get away from the high, longer that they hang on at these highs, okay? The more problematic it can get. You know, we'll get a question in the den about where I think this is going to go at the end of the day. I think we're just going to go flat market. Well, let me pull up the S&Ps for a second, though. So, if we pull up the S&Ps, yeah, you can see this morning. See this? Oh, yeah, let me do it this way, because I'll show you what it was going into, actually. See, this was going into... Never got down there, though. Yeah, this was... That downdraft was trying to get into... That's the wrong one. So, I can delete that one. Delete those, though. This is the one right there. That's where this thing could have went. You know, but you got a high volume low there that did get tested. It got tested right after we went down there, but I suspect, you know, it'll probably... They could get down there again, meaning the 48-16. Right now, you're a 48-22. It's just going to mess around here, man. That's my take on it. Now, that's unusual in the aspect. Let me show you this, because last night, Asia had a big night, and Europe was up pretty good, and our dollar was down. You can see the DK was up 1.1. Haing-Sang was up 1.7. You know, the Europe is only up, you know, 1-10, 2-10, or a percent, and we're not even close to that. So, we do have divergence in that being that note's a higher price, low yield. The dollar's getting smoked, and our S&P can't get any juice, but those things can get delayed by a day. You know, I suspect what you're going to have is that they'll probably run it right into the weekend. Apple, Apple's just going to, you know, stay at the appeals court on the aspect of the blood oxygen in their watch. You know, if you read that story about it, Apple, too, Tommy was talking about this morning. It's almost like they're a bunch of crooks, man. Apple is. You know, they had the main tech guy from Massimo come over to him in 2013, come over to Tim Cook, hired all the guys and basically stealing it. Stay right there, folks, come right back.

Down investors right now. Down investors up 56 now. It's like a five S&P's up 1.7. Now let's go take a look at this. Actually, Brazil's doing really good, actually. BRL. So if we go to Brazil first, the Brazil Real, you're going to see that it's going in the right way from Brazil. So they must be getting inflation under control here. Yeah, they definitely are. Because the Real just went from was it 5.5 Reals to 4.8. Now the opposite of that. This one's sick, man. We know that Argentina has always had a monster problem, but this is like sick. I mean, I don't know what the heck they're going to do down in Argentina. Well, I guess you keep as much beef and everything else as you can. I don't know what he'll watch this. This is like crazy. So we take a look at this just happens last week. The Real went from about 365? Yeah, 365 Reals to 1 U.S. Doll to 807. Now look at this, though. This is sick. If I bring this back two years, you're going from 108 to 807. I mean, that's about as crazy as you can get. Let's go to Bob in South Carolina. Bob, what's going on, brother? How are you doing, Tom? I'm doing great, man, yourself. Doesn't get any better than this. That's a beautiful thing, man. I like it. You know, it's so funny. Are you from Boston? Where are you from? Yes, I am. Well, I lived out in while I was originally from Brighton in downtown Boston. Exactly. I live in Bob in South Carolina. I wasn't expecting Boston. I love it. I love hearing that. Well, you could just say I'm a refugee escaping the cold in the Texas. Hey, listen, man, we're we got smart, because that gray, you know, you probably heard the story, but I was up there at a family reunion Bridget and I only like about a month ago. Man, I was such a baby. I mean, that's not cold. I couldn't hack it, though, man. It goes through your bones, Tom. It does. And that's the last time I'm going to go up there in the winter, man. Period. It was crazy. I stayed too long. I stayed three days. I'm sorry, what? You've got six months of winter up there every year, anyway. You do. So you want to take a look at Platinum out here? Is it so stalled, Tom? I mean, it's not even keeping close the gold. I know, man. I know. A lot of this has to do with the catalytic converters when, number one, all the EV cars come in. Two, the automobile manufacturers change to Platinum. I mean, Palladium, because Palladium was so cheap, now Palladium is so expensive. So that is something that smoked it. There's no doubt about it, you know, because the bottom line is that, you know, Platinum was always worth more than gold on a continual basis. It might go down once or twice underneath it, but it'll snap right back and, you know, it hasn't. If we look at PPLT, you know, the lows for the year out here has been 77, the highest 104. I mean, I think all these metals are buys right now. We're going to get action here, man. You know, but that's because of the U.S. dollar, you know. So we'll see, I mean, PPLT right now, you're at this 9170 and I think 104 is game. That's the next swing point up here. And we'll see whether, you know, it can get any traction over that level. You know, last time we were up here, gave it up at that point. We had a high volume low, high at 122. But the last time we went, we didn't go, you know. So. Well, I just, it just seems like it's going the way fast, I mean, compared to where gold's going. That's the fact. Yeah. Well, what also ends up happening, it's a lot easier buying gold than there is platinum. I mean, I buy both of them. And, you know, I love platinum because platinum coins, folks, if you have never seen a US eagle platinum coin, it's one of the most beautiful things in the world. And because they're never in circulation, it's just amazing. But they're, you know, a platinum coin, I don't know what the mint is getting now, but last time I looked, they were getting almost $200 over spot for the coin. Wow. Yeah, I know. I know. Well, thank you very much, Bob. Okay, Bob. Have a great one. Happy New Year, man. Thank you. Healthy New Year. Yes, healthy New Year. Very important. Very important. There's no doubt about that, folks. Health is the name of the game. There's no two ways about that. And the Dow, so let's go see inside the Dow what the juice is. So, putting the juice inside the Dow out here, you got Caterpillar, putting 18 positive, Goldman 16, Amgen 14, taking away from it is Microsoft, minus 6, Home Depot, minus 6, Boeing, minus 5. JP Morgan Chase, we got to look at this, man. I heard this number this morning, folks, and this is just amazing. So, JP Morgan Chase, picture, so the low for the year is 123. The high is 169. It's straightened out of PE, a forward PE of about 17, okay? It says 10 there. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, you're going to get sick of the 17, but listen to this, man. This is sick. For the year 2024, they have broken all records and they took in 162 billion. That's the number that they figure, okay? And out of that though, right? Profit. 50 billion dollars. Almost a billion dollars a week in profit. And I'll show you something else that you get Goldman, right? Now, we'll check this out. So, the low in Goldman for the year is 289, the high is 386. Now, Goldman didn't even take in 46 billion dollars, okay? Well, they took in 46 billion. So, JP Morgan, that's how much bigger JP Morgan is than Goldman. JP Morgan profit is 50 billion and the total gross of Goldman is 46 billion. That just goes to show you how large JP Morgan Chase has actually got. And of course, the last time that each and every time that there is any type of disconnect inside the marketplace, the last disconnect we had was a Silicon National Bank and the Republic Bank and what ended up happening is that JP Morgan, bottom line came in got a huge amount of assets below market you know, yeah, there's risk but the bottom line is that the big just keep getting bigger and in JP Morgan's case it's just a monster, man. I mean, a monster. Now up 75, now it's like up 12, it's a piece of one, stay right there folks, come right back.

Traded on the NYSE American and TSX under the symbol VGZ. Welcome back, folks. Down investors right now trading up 56, you get the Nasdaq up 6. S&P's are down 2. Let's go to my man Jim in Palm Harbor. Jim, what's going on? Tom, I was just thinking back to the old days when I used to carry an AM radio around so I could listen to Tom O'Brien's show on the AM radio. Well, I appreciate that, man. That's a while back and I was going to call you about Platinum and ironically you just had a call but I get a daily spreadsheet from a corruptible coin dealer and right now they are paying $2.40 over spot for Silver just for a tube of past state U.S. Eagles. They are paying spot plus 2.25 for proof gold coins with the documentation in a box. U.S. Gold Eagles are spot plus $325 and just for a where are we here on which is interest just from past states 2023 and before they are paying spot plus 1.75% for U.S. Gold Eagles they are buying they have no platinum for sale they are buying U.S. Platinum U.S. Eagles for spot plus $100 which is the highest I've seen in a while so that tells us where the demand is. Well, hold it. No, Platinum is only $100 but what did you say at Gold? You said that they were paying $300. No, that was percent. Gold is actually $100 over Yeah, which makes sense. Yeah, which makes sense. Silver happens, folks, is that silver I'm sorry, go ahead. Silver is spot plus $2.25 over Did you hear that, folks? Silver is always the hardest to get your money back that's 10% of the price of silver. It's just how it goes. They are buying spot plus $2.40 No, no, I get it. That's the buy. How much is the sell then? They are paying over spot by tubes of U.S. Silver Eagles right now. Oh, yeah, yeah. I've got a lot more than that. Yeah, yeah. What shocked me was these proof U.S. Gold Eagles with documentation $325 over Gold spot. I'm really thinking I've got a couple of boxes with the documentation from the U.S. and we're talking $20.78 plus $325 if I can get $2,400 or even the $100 over platinum at $1,002 Well, the platinum is not enough but the gold is. Now, watch how this works, folks. You really want to understand this for a second, right? So, you can see where we are, Jim, right? Well, let's put it this way. They all have been on a run, okay? But at those prices, you can see that you are, to me, you're not at highs, okay? But I'm just going to show you what ends up happening here, right? If gold goes to, let's say right now we're at 2,088, right? What happens, folks, is that if gold runs to $2,500 which I think it's going to, right? And this is where this thinking of is a good idea is that what ends up happening is that the premium actually goes down because what the gold deals do just in general, then they start getting nervous, okay? So the further it actually goes up and if you're peaking you'd be really surprised how far the premium can actually go down versus right now people are nervous evidently because if they pay $300 right now, they're nervous. That's what it comes down to. Well, and it also just shows you what kind of demand is out there for the physical. What kind of demand? Now, let's talk about silver for a second because this is really cool. If you have bags of silver, folks, okay? Let me pull this up silver at the same time. So if you have bags of junk silver, junk silver, by the way, folks, if you have it it's like awesome, like insane. You get junk quarters and you get junk dimes. So you can see silver right now, you know, bottom line is not a lot of action, right? I mean, it really is, it's $24. Now more than likely they're probably paying $27.50 or something for a bag. That's... Yeah, I'd have to I'd have to calculate, but I can tell you that they're all sold out. They have no junk silver. Right, okay, so that's so cool. So watch what happens, folks, okay? If you have junk silver, make sure that you sell it on an up day because what the deal is do is that if you get an up day going just as Jim said, they didn't have any and they want to move it out this is just life in the trading business. When you get an up day they have a huge amount of demand. As soon as silver goes down even 50 cents you will see that premium get destroyed. It will be destroyed only if it stays flat for three or four days. Silver is really so tricky selling and buying, but you can make a lot of money selling it on an up day. And what I'm talking about, they'll pay you an extra buck and per bag that's a lot of bread, folks, okay? I'll have to look at that. I was just catching up on your end stuff I actually just took an IRA distribution and I wanted to just call this your happy new year. Well, happy new year and I appreciate that feedback on the prices, man. It's pretty wild, isn't it? It really is. You know what's so cool about what Jim's saying to folks, okay? This is when you see what the real price is actually is. You can buy the future out of this but try to buy it and put it in your hands. Now, here's also a handoff to the Den in March 2000 when everybody was panicking to somebody at the Den. I bought, not enough platinum but I bought platinum at 7.20 an ounce. And like everybody else I've got stuff at $1,400 and $1,500 platinum also but they're all min-state. But thanks to the Den I bought platinum at 7.25 and I can't remember who the person was in the Den but I really want to thank them. That's a beautiful day, man. I love it. Okay, brother, you have a great year, safe new year and healthy new year. Thank you. And folks, if you haven't come in the Tigers Den yet, okay? Just do it. We have an amazing family in there.

You have everything from the biotechs are a big deal, man. I mean, at the bottom line, I said, yeah, you're risking a lot, but we get a whole crew in there with biotechs that just go out of day and night, man. You can see all these big drug companies buying and we're at a dynamic change all around between the chips, between the AI and one of the things the AI is going to do, folks, okay? Let's continue to have the biotechs do a faster acceleration into the diseases that they're going after. That was up 24, now it's next flat. There's some pieces down in four. Stay right there, folks.

GBTC, we gotta look into this now. This is coming the next week. They think that the SEC is going to rule on whether GBTC can turn into an ETF. Look at this. The low for the year out here is 773, the highest 37, but I want you to look at the premium. The premium right now is minus 3.4%. That premium folks, when this whole thing started, was minus 28%. We'll look at this. We'll see if it's quite a trade because the bottom line is that when this announcement comes out, if grayscale can turn into an ETF, it's going to be a big deal. The thing that is pretty wild and this is the news driven deal is that the chairman did resign. It's hard to tell whether maybe they thought that was part of the deal. That's never a good thing but we'll see where the whole thing shakes out. There's no doubt if in fact the Bitcoin does turn into all these ETFs, well, that's going to put more demand in it. There's no doubt about it. I remember the day that the GLD came into existence and that was a huge deal and if we bring this up, you don't realize that the GLD let me see with GLD, so this was let's see, so performance that normally tells me it started. Yeah, there it is right there. So the GLD started November 18, 2004. Before that, guess what? You had a bi-physical gold. As soon as the GLD came into existence and then the IAG, okay, what that did, that made it much easier for funds and for everyone else to buy gold. And what ends up happening, of course, that's the more demand there is. Guess what? The higher you go. Always remember, folks, the bank and claw your heart out, the bull can run you over and thank God, there's always another trade. Health happens in prosperity. Have a great night, folks. Have a safe night. Have a happy, healthy, successful new year. Come back and visit Tommy tomorrow morning. Kicks us off 9 a.m. Whee! Look at him, folks.
