“The company can take physical possession of the gold bars stored at the facility at any time with reasonable notice,” Palantir wrote.

In other words, they are holding worthless paper gold.

"reasonable notice" will mean they'll be waiting a LONG time for converting paper to physical. Like Never.

"Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale was quoted not too long ago, saying, “idiots are running the Fed.”

Well, that about sums it up....

I believe that a false flag is coming in the guise of a terrorist attack…….

This will allow the Democrats to consolidate power, suspend rights and travel and cancel elections……..

If someone else posted this 12 months ago I would have scoffed and labeled them a conspiracy theorist……

Either I’ve lost my mind or am just becoming aware of the true evil intentions of the Democrats….. red or blue pill….

While what you think may be true, the progressives have serious perhaps mortal problems within their city state Metropias.

The cities are rotting away within. The question becomes can they implement tyrannical dominance while the cities have been destroyed from within ?

Fear-mongering for some kind of financial gain. Folks have been saying for YEARS that we are headed for a major correction - doesn’t happen. The crooks keep going.

“ Palantir Technologies warned about an upcoming “black swan event,” ”

A Black Swan event is, by definition, something unexpected. The above statement is therefore nonsense, on par with Monty Python’s “No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!!!”

I had a friend once who was always worrying about the collapse of society, and did the same thing; bought a large sum of gold stored in a vault in New York. I had to point out that if things really went south, all he had was a piece of paper.

If everything goes sideways they would be better off with huge pile of 9x19 ammunition. It will be worth more.

Might that vault in New York happen to be in the basement of WTC Building 7?

I wonder where the contents of that vault are now...

Well it’s better than lugging all that heavy gold around. What if he fell off a bridge?

yep, the personal valuations is the value that counts. and, valuations of metals varies between various metals over time. brass and lead can and do occasionally take over the market.

Posting it now might still qualify.

They are saying some things are leading to an inevitable Black Swan Event - it’s will be unexpected because no one knows exactly what that event will be.

Palantir analyizes massive amounts of data from all sources and puts them altogether to determine likelihood of outcomes

Exactly! You hit the nail on the head.

A brick of ammo will someday be worth more than a brick of gold.
