 Brian. This is Tom O'Brien of TFNN. We got five days a week. We got seven hours a day. We go 24 hours a day on the internet at tfnn.com. Always remember folks, whatever you think about, you bring about whatever you focus on grows. Great day, safe day. We're kicking into 2024, folks. Holy cow. Don't make assumptions. Learn to ask questions. It's always better to ask questions than make assumptions. Have the courage to ask questions as clear as you can be. Once you hear the answer to that question, you won't have to make the assumption because you will know the truth. If they tell you the truth, right? Mugged wise! Let's take a look at it out here. We have the Dow industry was up 102. NASDAQ's up 12. S&Ps are up two and a half. Gold. Gold contract trading down $14.50 at 2,078 an ounce. We have silver down $0.38, $0.24, $0.25 an ounce. Late sweet crude down $0.02, $0.10, $0.72, one penny, a barrel, notes and bonds. A 10-year note. Down 13 ticks, trading $1.12.29, the 30-year of 23 ticks at $1.250, and $king dollar. $king dollar's up 246, trading $101.226, euro 110, yen trade, $141 British pound at $127 to $1 U.S. dollar. Iphone number's 877-927-6648. 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. Well, slowly but surely that S&P's trying to get to its highs. My take is that we're going to get this high. You don't get this close to a high without whacking it. So we take a look at this, baby. What you're going to see here, come on, let's go. So right now, you got it up $0.60, $0.57. You have volume contracted, no doubt about that. That's going to be all weak. You're still under the highs. We're just barely under the highs. We'll see one that wants to whack it. I mean, we got the $477.55 today and it's $479. Actually, let's bring up the cash because what does happen is the S&P pays a dividend, which makes a difference. So if we bring up the cash, right now, we hit $4793 and that number is $4818. So we're going to get that. So that's 27 points, man. Yeah, that's 27 points. That's quite a while. But when they bring up the cash, man, that still looks like, hey, let's kind of go after it. We take a look at the queues. The queues just continue to keep going higher, man. So we take a look at the queues. The queues are up $0.17 right now and they're breaking away from their highs. It hasn't broke away yet, but the bottom line is getting a little by little. We go take a look at the gold contract. Let's do the notes and bonds first because the notes and bonds, you have the 10-year, let's back into 3.8 again. You're pulling back with 827,000 contracts. We went up yesterday with just about the same thing. The gold contract actually pulling back with lighter shares than contracts rather than we did yesterday. You did about 150,000, I believe. Let's look at this. No, it's probably the same thing. No, it's the same. Yeah, it was 128 and you're pulling back with 121. Let's consolidate. And then Kingdoll. Kingdoll is getting a bounce out here. Let's go to Tom in Pittsburgh. Tom, what's going on? Happy New Year, man. Hey, happy New Year to you. I hope you had a great Christmas. We did. It was awesome. It was great and I expect 2024 is going to be a good year. Yeah. Well, I got a couple of questions for you. I'm looking at some tax law selling and I don't know if it's worth it at this point, but I got a loss in EXK and also SSRM two server stocks. Do you think they're worth holding or at this point? So EXK. Yeah, there's not much there on EXK. What's the other one? SSRM. SSRM. Yeah, Silverado. Okay. Hold it. SSRM. I see they just call it SSR mining now, right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So the low here is 10. The high is 17. So, yeah. So when you, okay, so let's let's walk through what you're specifically saying. You're saying that you get tax loss selling. Now do you have gains that you're going to, that you already closed out? Yeah, I've gained and I have a number of gold and silver stocks, but these two stocks I have losses in. I'm just debating, you know. But my point is if you haven't closed them out, you don't have gains yet on the tax forms. Do you have gains that you have already closed out that you're going to pay taxes on? Yeah. Okay. So the way to calculate it is you take the, listen, folks, I'm not, I'm not an accountant number one, but I'm just going to walk you through how this works, okay? And make sure you talk to your accountant, okay? So what you do there is this, I would take what the gains are, right? I would take what tax bracket you're in so that you understand what you're going to pay, right? And then calculate, you know, what you're going to lose on these, and you'll see whether you come out to net positive. If you come out to net positive, sell both of them, man. Who cares, right? I mean, you see what I'm saying? Yeah, I see what you're saying. I'm also thinking, I don't know, in your opinion, are these things bottoming out because I don't want to sell at the bottom? Well, you can always buy right back. Or they weren't holding. But you can buy right back. Oh, yeah, after about 30 days. So SSRM looks to me like it's going to get out of this $9 level. That's a high volume low that's going after. You can see the amount of volume that we did, you know, even this month is huge. So it's going to go after that level. And then the other one, EXK, right? That was the other one, right? Yeah. Okay, so, yeah, I mean, EXK is not moving and all the rest of the gold stocks have moved in a big way, man. So, you know, and, you know, this has volume too. You know? Yeah, just stay there for one second. Come right back, folks.
