The Good Morning Report

5 Things that Grabbed my Attention

1. China and Brazil have reached an agreement to do all trade in YUAN and REAL, completely bypassing the USD; $159bn worth of trade was done between the two countries last year....We are witnessing the biggest shakeup in the FINANCIAL WORLD ORDER since President Nixon abandoned the GOLD STANDARD in 1971.....I'm telling you - these are HISTORIC MOMENTS!!! 

2. Great news...Regis (RRL) got final approval for its McPhillamys Gold Project which is located 250km west of Sydney. This is a big win for shareholders - very surprised RRL only rallied 5%. BUY last sale $2.00

3. Traders have built a decent size short position in OIL futures, so wouldn't be surprised to see a surge higher (short squeeze) sometime soon.

4. Iluka (ILU) is a dominant force when it comes to mineral sands - therefore it would make strategic sense for one of the majors to take it over. BUY 

5. This is no joke...almost 20% of all office space in the USA is empty.

ASX Market Update

ASX 200 up 72 points to 7122

Resources, Industrials and Financials all finished in the green after a positive lead out of Wall Street.

There is all sorts of funny buggers going on with Mincor (MCR) at the moment.  Twiggy is trying to buy the company for $1.40 per share, but he could pull out as MCR management announced BHP all of a sudden has a problem with the quality of its nickel ore it is getting, so they have been forced to withdraw  production guidance - see below....It's a hard call because even MCR don't know what is going on....To keep the nickel exposure, a switch to PAN could be the way to go.

Random Observation

YIKES!!!....Almost 20% of US offices space is empty.....this could get real nasty.

In total, $432 billion CRE debt is maturing now through 2025.

Assuming an outsized portion of these loans default, lender's debt assets will be worthless.

And WHO are the most prominent lenders?

So while China is cutting HISTORIC deals to bypass the USD, the US Treasury Secretary - Janet Yellen is telling congress that climate change is an existential threat. Perverse part is - the GLOBALISTS policies are designed to trash the environment, create rampant inflation and leave you poor while they swan around the world in the lap of luxury....We live in Orwellian times:
