Let us have a look at the data for today
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
In silver, the total OPEN INTEREST FELL BY A TINY SIZED 308 CONTRACTS FROM 200,7481UP TO 200,173 DESPITE YESTERDAY'S 20 CENT RISE IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX. TODAY WE MOVED A LITTLE FURTHER FROM TO LAST MONTH'S RECORD SETTING OPEN INTEREST OF 244,196 CONTRACTS.
WE HAVE ALSO WITNESSED A LARGE AMOUNT OF PHYSICAL METAL STAND FOR COMEX DELIVERY(WELL OVER 30 MILLION OZ AT THE COMEX FOR JULY , 6 MILLION OZ FOR AUGUST AND NOW JUST LESS THAN 31 MILLION OZ STANDING IN SEPTEMBER. AS WELL WE ARE WITNESSING CONSIDERABLE LONGS PACKING THEIR BAGS AND MIGRATING OVER TO LONDON IN GREATER NUMBERS IN THE FORM OF EFP'S. WE WERE NOTIFIED THAT WE HAD A GIGANTIC SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONGS TRANSFERRING THEIR CONTRACTS TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP:
0 EFP'S FOR OCT. 4155 EFP'S FOR DECEMBER AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS AND THEREFORE TOTAL ISSUANCE: OF 4155 CONTRACTS. WITH THE TRANSFER OF 520 CONTRACTS, WHAT THE CME IS STATING IS THAT THERE IS NO SILVER (OR GOLD) TO BE DELIVERED UPON AT THE COMEX AS THEY MUST EXPORT THEIR OBLIGATION TO LONDON. ALSO KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE CAN BE A DELAY OF 24-48 HRS IN THE ISSUING OF EFP'S. THE 4155 EFP CONTRACTS TRANSLATES INTO 20.77 MILLION OZ ACCOMPANYING:
1.THE 20 CENT RISE IN SILVER PRICE AT THE COMEX AND
2. THE STRONG AMOUNT OF SILVER OUNCES WHICH STOOD FOR THE JUNE/2018 COMEX DELIVERY MONTH. (5.420 MILLION OZ); 30.370 MILLION OZ STANDING FOR DELIVERY IN JULY, FOR AUGUST: 6.065 MILLION OZ AND 39.505 MILLION OZ STANDING IN SEPT. AND 1,105,000 OZ STANDING IN OCTOBER.
ACCUMULATION FOR EFP'S/SILVER/J.P.MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES, / STARTING FROM FIRST DAY NOTICE/FOR MONTH OF SEPT:
7035 CONTRACTS (FOR 3 TRADING DAYS TOTAL 7035 CONTRACTS) OR 37.175 MILLION OZ: (AVERAGE PER DAY: 2345 CONTRACTS OR 11.725 MILLION OZ/DAY)
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SUPPLY THIS MONTH IN SILVER: SO FAR THIS MONTH OF SEPT: 37.175 MILLION PAPER OZ HAVE MORPHED OVER TO LONDON. THIS REPRESENTS AROUND 5.31% OF ANNUAL GLOBAL PRODUCTION (EX CHINA EX RUSSIA)* JUNE'S 345.43 MILLION OZ IS THE SECOND HIGHEST RECORDED ISSUANCE OF EFP'S AND IT FOLLOWED THE RECORD SET IN APRIL 2018 OF 385.75 MILLION OZ.
ACCUMULATION IN YEAR 2018 TO DATE SILVER EFP'S: 2,250.69 MILLION OZ.
ACCUMULATION FOR JAN 2018: 236.879 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR FEB 2018: 244.95 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR MARCH 2018: 236.67 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR APRIL 2018: 385.75 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR MAY 2018: 210.05 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR JUNE 2018: 345.43 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR JULY 2018: 172.84 MILLION OZ
ACCUMULATION FOR AUGUST 2018: 205.23 MILLION OZ.
ACCUMULATION FOR SEPTEMBER 2018: 167,05 MILLION OZ
RESULT: WE HAD A SMALL SIZED DECREASE IN COMEX OI SILVER COMEX CONTRACTS OF 308 DESPITE THE 20 CENT RISE IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX //YESTERDAY. THE CME NOTIFIED US THAT WE HAD A GIGANTIC SIZED EFP ISSUANCE OF 4155 CONTRACTS WHICH EXITED OUT OF THE SILVER COMEX AND TRANSFERRED THEIR OI TO LONDON AS FORWARDS. SPECULATORS CONTINUED THEIR INTEREST IN ATTACKING THE SILVER COMEX FOR PHYSICAL SILVER (SEE COMEX DATA) .
TODAY WE GAINED A STRONG SIZED:3847TOTAL OI CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
i.e 4155 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS HEADED FOR LONDON (EFP's) TOGETHER WITH DECREASE OF 308 OI COMEX CONTRACTS. AND ALL OF THIS DEMAND HAPPENED WITH A 20 CENT RISE IN PRICE OF SILVER AND A CLOSING PRICE OF $14.69 WITH RESPECT TO YESTERDAY'S TRADING. YET WE HAD A GIGANTIC AMOUNT OF SILVER STANDING AT THE COMEX FOR DELIVERY IN THE BIG JULY DELIVERY MONTH OF SLIGHTLY OVER 30 MILLION OZ, IN AUGUST ANOTHER BIG 6.065 MILLION OZ IN A NON ACTIVE MONTH AND NOW IN SEPTEMBER AN INITIAL MONSTROUS 39.505 MILLION OZ OF SILVER STANDING FOR DELIVERY... NOBODY IS PAYING ATTENTION TO THE HUGE NUMBER OF PHYSICAL OUNCES STANDING FOR SILVER THESE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS.
In ounces AT THE COMEX, the OI is still represented by OVER 1 BILLION oz i.e. 1.002 MILLION OZ TO BE EXACT or 143% of annual global silver production (ex Russia & ex China).
FOR THE NEW FRONT AUGUST MONTH/ THEY FILED AT THE COMEX: 72NOTICE(S) FOR 360,000 OZ OF SILVER
IN SILVER,PRIOR TO TODAY, WE SET THE NEW COMEX RECORD OF OPEN INTEREST AT 243,411 CONTRACTS ON APRIL 9.2018. AND AGAIN THIS HAS BEEN SET WITH A LOW PRICE OF $16.51.
AND NOW WE RECORD FOR POSTERITY ANOTHER ALL TIME RECORD OPEN INTEREST AT THE COMEX OF 244,196CONTRACTS ON AUGUST 22/2018 AND AGAIN WHEN THIS RECORD WAS SET, THE PRICE OF SILVER WAS $14.78 AND LOWER IN PRICE THAN PREVIOUS RECORDS.
ON THE DEMAND SIDE WE HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
HUGE AMOUNTS OF SILVER STANDING FOR DELIVERY (MARCH/2018: 27 MILLION OZ , APRIL/2018 : 2.485 MILLION OZ MAY: 36.285 MILLION OZ ; JUNE/2018 (5.420 MILLION OZ) , JULY 2018 FINAL AMOUNT STANDING: 30.370 MILLION OZ ) FOR AUGUST 6.065 MILLION OZ. , SEPT: AN INITIAL HUGE 39.505 MILLION OZ./AND NOW OCTOBER:1,105,000 ozHUGE RECORD OPEN INTEREST IN SILVER 243,411 CONTRACTS (OR 1.217 BILLION OZ/ SET APRIL 9/2018) AND NOW AUGUST 22/2018: 244,196 CONTRACTS, WITH A SILVER PRICE OF $14.78.HUGE ANNUAL EFP'S ISSUANCE EQUAL TO 2.9 BILLION OZ OR 400% OF SILVER ANNUAL PRODUCTION/2017RECORD SETTING EFP ISSUANCE FOR ANY MONTH IN SILVER; APRIL/2018/ 385.75 MILLIONOZ/ AND THE SECOND HIGHEST RECORDED EFP ISSUANCE JUNE 2018 345.43 MILLION OZAND YET, WITH THE EXTREMELY HIGH EFP ISSUANCE, WE HAVE A CONTINUAL LOW PRICE OF SILVER DESPITE THE ABOVE HUGE DEMAND. TO ME THE ONLY ANSWER IS THAT WE HAVE SOVEREIGN (CHINA) WHO IS ENDEAVOURING TO GOBBLE UP ALL AVAILABLE PHYSICAL SILVER NO MATTER WHERE, EXACTLY WHAT J.P.MORGAN IS DOING. AND IT IS MY BELIEF THAT J.P.MORGAN IS HOLDING ITS SILVER FOR ITS BENEFICIAL OWNER..THE USA GOVERNMENT WHO IN TURN IS HOLDING THAT SILVER FOR CHINA.(FOR A SILVER LOAN REPAYMENT).
IN GOLD, THE OPEN INTEREST ROSE BY A CONSIDERABLE SIZED 5109CONTRACTS UP TO 459,776 WITh THE RISEIN THE COMEX GOLD PRICE/FRIDAY'S TRADING (A GAIN IN PRICE OF $15.80).THE CME RELEASED THE DATA FOR EFP ISSUANCE AND IT TOTALED AN STRONG SIZED 13,121CONTRACTS: ALWAYS, ON THE WEEK PRIOR TO FIRST DAY NOTICE IN ANY ACTIVE MONTH WHETHER GOLD OR SILVER THE OI COLLAPSES. IT IS HERE THAT THE MIGRANTS RECEIVE THEIR FIAT BONUS FOR ENGAGING IN THIS EXERCISE. WE HAD THE FOLLOWING EFP ISSUANCE FOR TODAY:
OCTOBER HAD 0 EFP'S ISSUED AND, DECEMBER HAD AN ISSUANCE OF 13,121 CONTACTS AND ALL OTHER MONTHS ZERO. The NEW COMEX OI for the gold complex rests at 459,776. ALSO REMEMBER THAT THERE WILL BE A DELAY IN THE ISSUANCE OF EFP'S. THE BANKERS REMOVE LONG POSITIONS OF COMEX GOLD IMMEDIATELY. THEN THEY ORCHESTRATE THEIR PRIVATE EFP DEAL WITH THE LONGS AND THAT COULD TAKE AN ADDITIONAL, 48 HRS SO WE GENERALLY DO NOT GET A MATCH WITH RESPECT TO DEPARTING COMEX LONGS AND NEW EFP LONG TRANSFERS. . EVEN THOUGH THE BANKERS ISSUED THESE MONSTROUS EFPS, THE OBLIGATION STILL RESTS WITH THE BANKERS TO SUPPLY METAL BUT IT TRANSFERS THE RISK TO A LONDON BANKER OBLIGATION AND NOT A NEW YORK COMEX OBLIGATION. LONGS RECEIVE A FIAT BONUS TOGETHER WITH A LONG LONDON FORWARD. THUS, BY THESE ACTIONS, THE BANKERS AT THE COMEX HAVE JUST STATED THAT THEY HAVE NO APPRECIABLE METAL!! THIS IS A MASSIVE FRAUD: THEY CANNOT SUPPLY ANY METAL TO OUR COMEX LONGS BUT THEY ARE QUITE WILLING TO SUPPLY MASSIVE NON BACKED GOLD (AND SILVER) PAPER KNOWING THAT THEY HAVE NO METAL TO SATISFY OUR LONGS. LONDON IS NOW SEVERELY BACKWARD IN BOTH GOLD AND SILVER AND WE ARE WITNESSING DELAYS IN ACTUAL DELIVERIES.
IN ESSENCE WE HAVE A GIGANTIC SIZED OI GAIN IN TOTAL CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES OF 18,230 CONTRACTS: 5109 OI CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX AND 13,121 EFP OI CONTRACTS WHICH NAVIGATED OVER TO LONDON. THUS TOTAL OI GAIN: 18,230 CONTRACTS OR 1,823,000 OZ = 56.70 TONNES. AND ALL OF THIS HUGE DEMAND OCCURRED WITH A RISE IN THE PRICE OF GOLD/ YESTERDAY TO THE TUNE OF $15.80
YESTERDAY, WE HAD 5966 EFP'S ISSUED.
ACCUMULATION OF EFP'S GOLD AT J.P. MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES: (EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL) FOR THE MONTH OF SEPT : 24,740CONTRACTS OR 2,474,000 OZ OR 76.95 TONNES (3 TRADING DAYS AND THUS AVERAGING: 8246 EFP CONTRACTS PER TRADING DAY OR 824,600 OZ/ TRADING DAY),,
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SIZE OF THESE EFP TRANSFERS : THIS MONTH IN 3 TRADING DAYS IN TONNES: 76.95 TONNES
TOTAL ANNUAL GOLD PRODUCTION, 2017, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD EX CHINA EX RUSSIA: 2555 TONNES
THUS EFP TRANSFERS REPRESENTS 76.95/2550 x 100% TONNES = 3.01% OF GLOBAL ANNUAL PRODUCTION SO FAR IN JULY ALONE.***
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S YEAR 2018 TO DATE: 5,744.52* TONNES *SURPASSED ANNUAL PROD'N
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S FOR JANUARY 2018: 653.22 TONNES (21 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S FOR FEBRUARY 2018: 649.45 TONNES (20 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S FOR MARCH 2018: 741.89 TONNES (22 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S FOR APRIL 2018: 713.84 TONNES (21 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S FOR MAY 2018: 693.80 TONNES ( 22 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP FOR JUNE 2018 650.71 TONNES (21 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP FOR JULY 2018 605.5 TONNES (21 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP FOR AUG. 2018 488.54 TONNES (23 TRADING DAYS)
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP FOR SEPT 2018 470.64 TONNES (19 TRADING DAYS)
WHAT IS ALARMING TO ME, ACCORDING TO OUR LONDON EXPERT ANDREW MAGUIRE IS THAT THESE EFP'S ARE BEING TRANSFERRED TO WHAT ARE CALLED SERIAL FORWARD CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS AND THESE CONTRACTS ARE LESS THAN 14 DAYS. ANYTHING GREATER THAN 14 DAYS, THESE MUST BE RECORDED AND SENT TO THE COMPTROLLER, GREAT BRITAIN TO MONITOR RISK TO THE BANKING SYSTEM. IF THIS IS INDEED TRUE, THEN THIS IS A MASSIVE CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD AS WE NOW WITNESS A MONSTROUS TOTAL EFP'S ISSUANCE AS IT HEADS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE.
Result: A CONSIDERABLE SIZED INCREASE IN OI AT THE COMEX OF 5109 WITH THE GAIN IN PRICING ($15,80 THAT GOLD UNDERTOOK YESTERDAY) //. WE ALSO HAD AN GOOD SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONG TRANSFERRING TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE: 13121 CONTRACTS AS THESE HAVE ALREADY BEEN NEGOTIATED AND CONFIRMED. THERE OBVIOUSLY DOES NOT SEEM TO BE MUCH PHYSICAL GOLD AT THE COMEX. I GUESS IT EXPLAINS THE HUGE ISSUANCE OF EFP'S...THERE IS HARDLY ANY GOLD PRESENT AT THE GOLD COMEX FOR DELIVERY PURPOSES. IF YOU TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE 13121 EFP CONTRACTS ISSUED, WE HAD A HUMONGOUS GAIN OF 18230CONTRACTS IN TOTAL OPEN INTEREST ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
13121` CONTRACTS MOVE TO LONDON AND 5109 CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX. (in tonnes, the GAIN in total oi equates to 56.70 TONNES). ..AND ALL OF GOOD DEMAND OCCURRED WITHA GAIN OF $15.80 IN YESTERDAY'S TRADING AT THE COMEX.???
we had: 10 notice(s) filed upon for 1000 oz of gold at the comex.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
With respect to our two criminal funds, the GLD and the SLV:
GLD...
WITH GOLD DOWN $4.05 TODAY: /
A HUGE CHANGE IN GOLD INVENTORY AT THE GLD:
A LARGE WITHDRAWAL OF 6.18 TONNES
OBVIOUSLY THIS GOLD WAS USED TO THE RAID TODAY
/GLD INVENTORY 731.64 TONNES
Inventory rests tonight: 731.64 tonnes.
TO ALL INVESTORS THINKING OF BUYING GOLD THROUGH THE GLD ROUTE: YOU ARE MAKING A TERRIBLE MISTAKE AS THE CROOKS ARE USING WHATEVER GOLD COMES IN TO ATTACK BY SELLING THAT GOLD. IT SURE SEEMS TO ME THAT THE GOLD OBLIGATIONS AT THE GLD EXCEED THEIR INVENTORY
SLV/
WITH SILVER FLAT TODAY
STRANGE. WE HAD A MONSTROUS DEPOSIT FOR SILVER :
A HUGE 1.879 MILLION OZ AND THIS WAS DONE ON A ZERO PRICE GAIN???
/INVENTORY RESTS AT 334.791 MILLION OZ.
NOTE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GLD AND SLV: THE CROOKS CAN RAID GOLD BECAUSE THEY DO HAVE SOME PHYSICAL. THEY DO NOT RAID SILVER PROBABLY BECAUSE THERE IS NO REAL SILVER INVENTORIES BEHIND THEM.
The total gold comex open interest ROSE BY A CONSIDERABLE SIZED 5109 CONTRACTS UP to an OI level 459,776 WITH THE RISE IN THE PRICE OF GOLD ($15.80 GAIN YESTERDAY'S COMEX TRADING). FOR TWO YEARS STRAIGHT WE HAVE NOTICED THAT ONE WEEK PRIOR TO FIRST DAY NOTICE OF AN ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH THE COMEX OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS AND EFP'S NOTICES EXPONENTIALLY INCREASE AS WELL AS WE WITNESS THE COMEX OPEN INTEREST COLLAPSE. ONCE WE GET TO FIRST DAY NOTICE, THEN THE OPEN INTEREST RISES AND AGAIN THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT US.
WE ARE NOW IN THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF OCT.. THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED AN GOOD SIZED COMEX TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS., THAT IS 13,121 EFP CONTRACTS WERE ISSUED:
OCTOBER: 0 EFP'S AND DECEMBER: 13121 AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS:
TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 53121CONTRACTS.
THE OBLIGATION STILL RESTS WITH THE BANKERS ON THESE TRANSFERS. ALSO REMEMBER THAT THERE IS NO DOUBT A HUGE DELAY IN THE ISSUANCE OF EFP'S AND IT PROBABLY TAKES AT LEAST 48 HRS AFTER LONGS GIVE UP THEIR COMEX CONTRACTS FOR THEM TO RECEIVE THEIR EFP'S AS THEY ARE NEGOTIATING THIS CONTRACT WITH THE BANKS FOR A FIAT BONUS PLUS THEIR TRANSFER TO A LONDON BASED FORWARD.
ON A NET BASIS IN OPEN INTEREST WE GAINED THE FOLLOWING TODAY ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES: A 18,230 TOTAL CONTRACTS IN THAT 13121 LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS FORWARDS TO LONDON AND WE GAINED 5109COMEX CONTRACTS.
NET GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 18,230 contracts OR 1,823,000 OZ OR 56.70 TONNES.
Result: A CONSIDERABLE SIZED INCREASE IN COMEX OPEN INTEREST WITH THE GAIN IN PRICE/ YESTERDAY (ENDING UP WITH THE RISE IN PRICE OF $15.80). THE TOTAL OPEN INTEREST GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 18230 OI CONTRACTS..
We are now in the active contract month of OCTOBER. For the October contract month, we lost o 469 contracts to fall to 2720 contracts. We had 65 notices yesterday, so we lost 404 contracts or 40,400oz will not stand for delivery at the comex and these guys marched over to London as they received London based forwards on top of a fiat bonus for their hard work.
The next delivery month is the non active NOVEMBER contract month and here the OI ROSE by 207contracts down to 661. The next delivery month after November is the very big December contract month and here the OI ROSE by 5326 contracts down to 376,541 contracts.
WE HAD 10 NOTICE FILED AT THE COMEX FOR 1000 OZ.
FOR THE OCTOBER CONTRACT MONTH: OCTOBER IS THE WEAKEST OF ALL DELIVERY MONTHS IN GOLD.
FOR THE COMEX OCT 2017 GOLD CONTRACT MONTH: WE INITIALLY HAD 300,600 OZ STAND FOR DELIVERY OR 9.349 TONNES. (VS 13.695 TONNES OCT 2018)
AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE OCTOBER/2017 TRADING MONTH: 333,300 OZ OR 10.367 TONNESFINALLY STOOD FOR DELIVERY
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And now for the wild silver comex results.
Total silver OI FELL BY A TINY SIZED 308 CONTRACTS FROM 200,481 DOWN TO 200,173 (AND CLOSER TO THE NEW RECORD OI FOR SILVER SET ON AUGUST 22.2018. (THE PREVIOUS RECORD WAS SET APRIL 9.2018/ 243,411 CONTRACTS) AND TODAY'S OI COMEX LOSS OCCURRED WITH A 20 CENT RISE IN PRICING.
WE ARE NOW INTO THE NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF OCTOBER AND, WE WERE INFORMED THAT WE HAD A STRONG SIZED 4155 EFP CONTRACTS:
FOR DECEMBER: 4155 CONTRACTS AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS. THESE EFPS WERE ISSUED TO COMEX LONGS WHO RECEIVED A FIAT BONUS PLUS A DELIVERABLE PRODUCT OVER IN LONDON. THE TOTAL EFP'S ISSUED: 4155. ON A NET BASIS WE GAINED 3847 SILVER OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS AS WE OBTAINED A 308 CONTRACT LOSS AT THE COMEX COMBINING WITH THE ADDITION OF 4155 OI CONTRACTS NAVIGATING OVER TO LONDON.
NET GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 3847 CONTRACTS...AND ALL OF DEMAND OCCURRED WITH A 20 CENT RISE IN PRICING.
We are now in the non active delivery month of October and here we had surprisingly gain of 3 contracts to stand at 82 contracts. We had 48 notices filed YESTERDAY so we gained 51 contracts or 255,000 oz will stand for delivery at the comex as these guys refused to accept a London based forward plus as well as a fiat bonus
After October, is the non active delivery month of November and here we lost 11 contracts down to 445 contracts. After November, we have a December contract and here we lost 542 contracts down to 168,703.
We had 72 notice(s) filed for 360,000 OZ for the SEPTEMBER 2018 COMEX contract for silver
AND NOW COMPARISON FOR OCTOBER:
FOR THE OCTOBER 2017 CONTRACT MONTH WE HAD 4.205,000 OZ OF SILVER INITIALLY STAND FOR DELIVERY.
BY MONTH'S END WE HAD 5,475,000 OZ FINALLY STAND AS QUEUE JUMPING IN SILVER WAS ALREADY IN THE NORM.
OCTOBER IS A NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH FOR SILVER BUT AS YOU CAN SEE OCT 2017 DELIVERIES WERE PRETTY
GOOD.
OCT 3-/2018.
we had xxx dealer entry:
total gold entering dealer: xxx oz
total gold withdrawing from the dealer; xxxoz
we had 0 kilobar transaction/we had xx withdrawal out of the customer account:i) Out of Brinks: xxx oztotal customer withdrawals: xxx ozwe had xx customer depositi) Into xxx: xxx oztotal customer deposits: xxx ozwe had xx adjustmentsi
FOR THE OCTOBER 2018 CONTRACT MONTH)
Today, 0 notice(s) were issued from JPMorgan dealer account and 1 notices were issued from their client or customer account. The total of all issuance by all participants equates to 10 contract(s) of which 0 notices were stopped (received) by j.P. Morgan dealer and 4 notice(s) was (were) stopped/ Received) by j.P.Morgan customer account.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxTo calculate the INITIAL total number of gold ounces standing for the OCT/2018. contract month, we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (848) x 100 oz or 100 oz, to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of OCT. (2720 contracts) minus the number of notices served upon today (10 x 100 oz per contract) equals 355,800 OZ OR 11.066 TONNES) the number of ounces standing in this non active month of OCT
Thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the OCT/2018 contract month:
No of notices served (848 x 100 oz) + {2720)OI for the front month minus the number of notices served upon today (10x 100 oz )which equals 355,800 oz standing OR 11.066 TONNES in this active delivery month of OCTOBER.
THERE ARE ONLY 4.544 TONNES OF REGISTERED COMEX GOLD AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY AGAINST 11.066 TONNES STANDING FOR OCTOBER
total registered or dealer gold: 145,041.066 oz or 4.544 tonnestotal registered and eligible (customer) gold; 8,331,574.891 oz 259.14 tonnes
IN THE LAST 25 MONTHS 96 NET TONNES HAS LEFT THE COMEX.
end
we had 0 inventory movement at the dealer side of things
total dealer deposits: nil oz
total dealer withdrawals: nil oz
we had 1 deposit into the customer account
i) Into JPMorgan: nil oz
*** JPMorgan for most of 2017 and in 2018 has adding to its inventory almost every single day.
JPMorgan now has 142.435 million oz of total silver inventory or 48.9% of all official comex silver. (142 million/291 million)
ii) Into xxx
total customer deposits today: XXXX oz
we had xxx withdrawals from the customer account;
total dealer silver: xxx million
total dealer + customer silver: xxx million oz
The total number of notices filed today for the OCTOBER 2018. contract month is represented by 72 contract(s) FOR 360,000 oz. To calculate the number of silver ounces that will stand for delivery in OCT., we take the total number of notices filed for the month so far at 295 x 5,000 oz = 1,475,000 oz to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of OCT. (82) and the number of notices served upon today (72 x 5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.
.
Thus the INITIAL standings for silver for the OCT/2018 contract month: 295(notices served so far)x 5000 oz + OI for front month of OCT (82) -number of notices served upon today (72)x 5000 oz equals 1,525,000 oz of silver standing for the OCT contract month. This is a huge number of oz standing for an off delivery month.
We gained 51 contracts oran additional 255,000 oz will be standing at the Comex as these guys refused to morph into London based forwards on top of not receiving a fiat bonus .
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ESTIMATED VOLUME FOR TODAY: 67,861CONTRACTS
CONFIRMED VOLUME FOR YESTERDAY: 109,388CONTRACTS..
YESTERDAY'S CONFIRMED VOLUME OF 109388 CONTRACTS EQUATES TO 546 million OZ OR 78.1% OF ANNUAL GLOBAL PRODUCTION OF SILVER
COMMODITY LAW SUGGESTS THAT OPEN INTEREST SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN 3% OF ANNUAL GLOBAL PRODUCTION. THE CROOKS ARE SUPPLYING MASSIVE PAPER TRYING TO KEEP SILVER IN CHECK.
The record level of silver open interest is 234,787 contracts set on April 21./2017 with the price at that day at $18.42The previous record was 224,540 contracts with the price at that time of $20.44
