Best day in Silver in 15 months...

The bullion dealers are stupid for ramping up margins. Had they kept their margins low they would have really set fire to demand for their metals and really caused the manipulators some real grief.

Considering they completely sold out, I am not sure it would have made a difference.

I want a shop of Jamie Dimon as Ned Beatty in Deliverance getting bent over by Bass, Sprott, or William Jennings Bryan.

 Spot @ $26.50 in Slvr seems to put the PTB on high alert.

Strange. I never had any anxiety about buying and holding phys gold or silver, even when I bought silver at $40/oz, as I knew it would hold its value when the time came. I have no concern now either.  In contrast, when owning stocks and mutual funds, it seemed I was always paranoid enough that I had to keep checking that they still hadn't gone down in value. I was so anxious I was even watching CNBC!

As does available physical at most LCS?  Crystal.  Paper can get stuck on zero wouldn't surprise me.

-1 the trend is multi-year and that’s up, not down. Before long I expect to see silver spot at $5 and silver physical at $50 per ounce at the same precise moment.

Anyone else hear that rushing sound?

That's air blowing into the vacuum at COMEX.

4/24: 7,990,798 troy oz

4/23: 8,345,509 troy oz

COMEX lost 4.4% of its gold inventory yesterday!

Since 4/5, it's down 13.8%

Can't wait to see what today looks like. I'm betting part of this runup is due to delivery issues.

Hadn't seen it. It seems more speculative than usual, laying it all at the feet of hedges done solely by Russia through Cyrprus seems like a huge stretch to me when you've go so many other candidates (JPM, BBs, etc.)

I do agree that something big and possibly geo-political is involved with whatever this is, but that could simply be widespread repatriation of gold.

Price?  What price?  How did we determine that price again?  Nevermind.  I want MOAR!

It's only $6 below what I bought it at not counting the premium.

Alleluiah...or something.

 

PS. When I tried to but more at a lower price at a later date, I was told

I'd still need to pay the price I paid before. He probably wasn't willing to

pay the higher price if he were a buyer.

 

The other dealer in town 'didn't have any.'

I wouldn't bet on silver continuing its rise, as it seems to be in a correction prior to the next drop.  Which by the looks of it , should be soon.

When TSHTF paper will be worth what paper is worth.

The 'price' of metal will be impossible to determine.

What will matter is whether or not you have any of either.

Those with will be less fucked than those without.

Not worth even commenting on the value of zeros and ones on a server somewhere.
