Thrust in King Jesus - REMX - Miners - Currencies - And More

I urge each of you to make your own investment decisions. It is impossible for me to know your present portfolios, financial situation, and risk tolerance. This blog is designed to let you know what I am doing in the markets which may not be correct for you. On the other hand, as I continue to study the bible which is the inerrant word of the Sovereign Creator God, I find it to provide factual history, and of significant importance is that it is the only true and accurate guide for all of life and practice. That is true, not simply because it has been proven to be true throughout history, but because its author is the One and Only True God. 

Knowing this provides peace and security to each and every one of His people. We are dedicated to service under our King Jesus. Praise Him daily and rest in Him. He is the only one upon whom we can depend with absolute faith.

Currencies from KitCo:

Some Prices: FVITF  5.5463;OLVRF 1.7258; SENY 0.80; BYDDF 3.77 (This is still in my buying range); REMX 37.13; DOW up 18+ to 12395.19; SPX up almost 2 to 1333.84; Gold up 7.91 to 1436.80; Silver up 0.72 to 38.55. Both precious metals are making assaults on new highs, but both have failed to push threw to new highs recently. The strength does not seem to be there at present.
