# Thursday delivered Fearless' downside objective, and then reversed dramatically. The DJIA fell to 50,546.54, but recovered roughly 381 points to close 50,927.33, slightly positive.
# Forecast Statistics
**Bucket:** Downside Exhaustion / Recovery Test
**Volatility Score:** ≈ **1.72, VERY HIGH**
**Probabilities:** SU 20% | LU 33% | SD 30% | LD 17%
**Expected Return:** ≈ +0.02%
**Projected Close:** 50,750–51,150
**Directional Bias:** 53% Up / 47% Down
Previous Close: **50,927.33**
**RECAP:** Thursday's **63% Down / EXIT** forecast: The critical 50,850 trigger broke, the 50,650–50,750 objective was reached, and the decline extended to 50,546. The important late development was the reversal: sellers could not retain a decline of nearly 360 points and the DJIA recovered to finish slightly higher.
**Trader's Edge: Forecast rated 71% correct, 29% incorrect since December 2025.**
# Fearless Opines: Thursday produced the clearest exhaustion evidence of the decline. The DJIA has now tested substantially below 50,650 and rejected those prices. But a 381-point recovery is not yet a trend reversal: buyers still have to reclaim the resistance that broke during the selloff. Friday therefore shifts from downside expansion to a recovery test, with almost no directional advantage.
# Key Levels
**Bull Hold:** **50,850**
**Recovery:** **51,000**
**REDUCE:** **51,125**
**GO:** **51,200**
**Warning:** **50,750**
**EXIT:** **50,650**
**Major Failure:** **50,545**
**Downside Objective:** **50,350–50,450**
GO / REDUCE / EXIT: REDUCE. The late reversal is strong enough to move Fearless out of EXIT, but not into GO. For Friday, 50,850–51,125 is the proving ground. Holding 50,850 preserves the recovery attempt; reclaiming 51,000 strengthens it, while 51,125–51,200 would signal more substantial repair. Below 50,750, the recovery begins failing; below 50,650 returns Fearless to EXIT.
# Trader Takeaway: Don't chase Thursday's rebound any more than it made sense to chase Thursday morning's collapse. 51,000 is the first buyer test; 50,750 is the seller test. Let the DJIA show which side actually retained Thursday's reversal.
# FEARLESS READ: 53% Up. Thursday's bears won the morning and lost most of it back by the close. Friday belongs to neither side yet: buyers now have to turn a spectacular rescue into a sustained recovery.

I have purchased quite a bit from MintBuilder and have had Zero problems with them. Why are you so interested in bashing someone on Reddit? What do you gain from ruining his business? You SD Bullion or APEX who absolutely bend people over on premium ? If I have to wait 2 weeks to save 500 bucks. Guess what ? I'm going to wait. Get a life.

I always check SD bullion before anyone else if I cannot easily find what I'm looking for locally. Silver doctors bullion has treated me very well for the past decade+. Highly recommended.

My buying and selling experience with SD Bullion has been very positive... can't say the same for any other I've tried tho

Broo I love SD! Why would you move to LA from SD? I like the chill and quiet vibes in SD more...

Yeah, north county SD. Trying to move to LA soonish, but I yearn for the bay tbh. Hopefully I can live there again one day

# Wednesday turned Tuesday's exhaustion signal into a failed recovery. The DJIA fell 441.13 points to 50,908.79, closed at the session low, and broke every major downside level in Wednesday's forecast.
# Forecast Statistics
**Bucket:** Downside Expansion / Oversold Continuation
**Volatility Score:** ≈ **1.67, very high and expanding**
**Probabilities:** SU 14% | LU 23% | SD 38% | LD 25%
**Expected Return:** ≈ **−0.07%**
**Projected Close:** 50,700–51,100
**Directional Bias:** 37% Up / 63% Down
Previous Close: **50,908.79**
RECAP: Wednesday's original 52% Up / REDUCE failed the 51,450 recovery test. The 10:30 update correctly reversed to 62% Down, after which 51,300, 51,250 and 51,125 all broke. The DJIA then reached and exceeded the forecast's 50,950–51,050 downside objective.
**Trader's Edge: Forecast rated 71% correct, 29% incorrect since December 2025.**
# Fearless Opines: Wednesday materially strengthened the bearish state. The most important evidence is the close at the day's low after the DJIA had already fallen sharply. There was no late-session rescue like Tuesday's. But the DJIA has now lost about 920 points in two sessions, making Thursday vulnerable to a sharp countertrend rebound. Sellers retain the statistical advantage, but chasing weakness carries increasing exhaustion risk.
# Key Levels
**Recovery:** **51,000**
**REDUCE:** **51,125**
**GO:** **51,250**
**Bull Repair:** **51,300**
**Bear Hold:** **50,900**
**Downside Trigger:** **50,850**
**Objective:** **50,650–50,750**
**Major Failure:** **50,500**
GO / REDUCE / EXIT: EXIT. Thursday begins with 63% Down. Below 50,900, traders should continue treating rallies defensively. A sustained break below 50,850 favors continuation toward 50,650–50,750. Reclaiming 51,000 weakens the immediate downside case; 51,125 moves Fearless toward REDUCE. 51,250 is required before GO returns.
# Trader Takeaway: Thursday presents a classic tension between downside momentum and exhaustion. Don't confuse an oversold bounce with repair: 51,000 is the first test, 51,125 is the meaningful one. Conversely, don't chase sellers blindly after a 920-point two-day decline; make them prove the breakdown below 50,850.
# FEARLESS READ: 63% Down. Wednesday ended with sellers pressing the DJIA into the closing bell. Thursday begins with them in control, but after two punishing sessions, 50,850 must break before the next downside leg earns confirmation.

When I've needed to, I sell to the large online dealers.... SD Bullion, Money metals, etc.

I'd say 70% of my stack is SD Bullion and the rest is local shops

Single grams rarely have deals, but sometimes there is. Usually sales for fractional don't start until 2.5 grams for bars. And 1/10 or 1/4 for coins.
All the big site have a "on sale" section. JM bullion, monument metals, SD bullion.
You just gotta keep checking until a good sale comes up. There's still a premium usually but it'll get knocked down a bit when it's on sale. Sometimes there will be at spot sale for fractionals. I only buy from the "on sale" or "deals" selection.
