Q: […on the10th they are activating the smart cards to deal with tariffs as I understand and was wondering if they did that do you think we might see something then or shortly after?]
BGG: I have long said – “when you see the tariffs you will see a rate”… if they enact a broad tariff structure WITHOUT a rate (or currency shift of some kind) that would help mitigate the damage to the citizens – I WILL BE STUNNED.
I am about 99.75% on this one. …obviously – anything is possible. However, their own economist have warned them over and over… (AND the IMF is involved now).

Harvestime: In the first paragraph it states this card will be used on the 10th for licenses and fees in import and export. (see article below) This may have already been covered and I apologize to you Frank if it has been discussed and I just missed it. Sure seems like something Big!!
Goldenboy: Get ready family! Second article pointing to the tenth of this month. The other was for the Dong! I pray that is our big day! The markets,
IMO are correcting themselves for the explosive events I predict will hit next week! Maybe Frank will have some golden nuggets to reiterate this!
