Let us have a look at the data for today
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
In silver, the total open interest FELL BY A FAIR SIZED 1456 contracts from 205,874 FALLING TO 204,418 DESPITE YESTERDAY'S GOOD 13 CENT GAIN IN SILVER PRICING. OBVIOUSLY WE HAD SOME COMEX LIQUIDATION. HOWEVER, WE WERE AGAIN NOTIFIED THAT WE HAD ANOTHER HUGE SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONGS TRANSFERRING THEIR CONTRACTS TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE: 2698 EFP'S FOR MARCH AND 50 FOR FEBRUARY(SOMEBODY BADLY NEEDS PHYSICAL AND HAS TO GO TO LONDON TO GET IT) AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS AND THUS TOTAL ISSUANCE OF 2748 CONTRACTS. HOWEVER THE MOVEMENT ACROSS TO LONDON IS NOT AS SEVERE AS IN GOLD AS THERE SEEMS TO BE MAJOR PLAYERS WILLING TO TAKE ON THE BANKS AT THE COMEX. STILL, WITH THE TRANSFER OF 2748 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 HRS IN THE ISSUING OF EFP'S.
ACCUMULATION FOR EFP'S/SILVER/ STARTING FROM FIRST DAY NOTICE/FOR MONTH OF JANUARY:
43,410 CONTRACTS (FOR 19 TRADING DAYS TOTAL 43,410 CONTRACTS OR 217.050 MILLION OZ: AVERAGE PER DAY: 2285 CONTRACTS OR 11.423 MILLION OZ/DAY)
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SUPPLY THIS MONTH IN SILVER: SO FAR THIS MONTH: 217.05 MILLION PAPER OZ HAVE MORPHED OVER TO LONDON. THIS REPRESENTS AROUND 30.07% OF ANNUAL GLOBAL PRODUCTION
RESULT: A SMALL SIZED LOSS IN OI COMEX DESPITE THE 13 CENT GAIN IN SILVER PRICE. WE HOWEVER HAD A HUGE SIZED EFP ISSUANCE OF 2748 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 . FROM THE CME DATA 2748 EFP'S WERE ISSUED FOR TODAY FOR A DELIVERABLE FORWARD CONTRACT OVER IN LONDON WITH A FIAT BONUS. WE REALLY GAINED 1292 OI CONTRACTS i.e. 2748 open interest contracts headed for London (EFP's) TOGETHER WITH A DECREASE OF 1456 OI COMEX CONTRACTS. AND ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WITH THE RISE IN PRICE OF SILVER OF 13 CENTS AND A CLOSING PRICE OF $17.63 WITH RESPECT TO YESTERDAY'S TRADING. YET WE STILL HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF SILVER STANDING AT THE COMEX.
In ounces AT THE COMEX, the OI is still represented by just OVER 1 BILLION oz i.e. 1.022 BILLION TO BE EXACT or 146% of annual global silver production (ex Russia & ex China).
FOR THE NEW FRONT JANUARY MONTH/ THEY FILED: 1 NOTICE(S) FOR 5,000 OZ OF SILVER
In gold, the open interest FELL BY A HUMONGOUS 24,817 CONTRACTS DOWN TO 573,135 DESPITE THE GOOD SIZED RISE IN PRICE OF GOLD WITH YESTERDAY'S TRADING ($5.80). IN ANOTHER HUGE DEVELOPMENT, WE RECEIVED THE TOTAL NUMBER OF GOLD EFP'S ISSUED FOR FRIDAY AND IT TOTALED A GOOD SIZED 8445 CONTRACTS OF WHICH FEBRUARY SAW 7766 CONTRACTS ISSUED AND APRIL SAW THE ISSUANCE OF 679 CONTRACTS. The new OI for the gold complex rests at 581,778. 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. DUE TO THE DELAY IN THE RELEASE OF YESTERDAY'S DATA YOU CAN BET THE FARM THAT THEY HAVE DELAYED THE RELEASE OF MANY EFPS. DEMAND FOR GOLD INTENSIFIES GREATLY AS WE CONTINUE TO WITNESS A HUGE NUMBER OF EFP TRANSFERS TOGETHER WITH THE MASSIVE INCREASE IN GOLD COMEX OI TOGETHER WITH THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF GOLD OUNCES STANDING FOR JANUARY COMEX. 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 (BIG RISE IN BOTH GOFO AND SIFO) AND WE ARE WITNESSING DELAYS IN ACTUAL DELIVERIES. IN ESSENCE TODAY WE HAVE A LOSS OF 16,372 CONTRACTS: 24,817 OI CONTRACTS DECREASED AT THE COMEX AND A GOOD SIZED 8445 OI CONTRACTS WHICH NAVIGATED OVER TO LONDON. EXPECT HUGE NUMBERS OF EFP'S TO BE ISSUED AS WE APPROACH FIRST DAY NOTICE IN THE GOLD FEB COMEX CONTRACT, WEDNESDAY JAN 31.2018
YESTERDAY, WE HAD 20,747 EFP'S ISSUED.
ACCUMULATION OF EFP'S/ GOLD(EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL) FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY STARTING WITH FIRST DAY NOTICE: 193,663 CONTRACTS OR 19.366 MILLION OZ OR 602.363 TONNES(19 TRADING DAYS AND THUS AVERAGING: 10,192 EFP CONTRACTS PER TRADING DAY OR 1,019,200 OZ/DAY)
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SIZE OF THESE EFP TRANSFERS : SO FAR THIS MONTH IN 17 TRADING DAYS: IN TONNES: 602 TONNES
TOTAL ANNUAL GOLD PRODUCTION, 2017, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD EX CHINA EX RUSSIA: 2200 TONNES
THUS EFP TRANSFERS REPRESENTS 602/2200 TONNES = 27.36% OF GLOBAL ANNUAL PRODUCTION SO FAR IN JANUARY ALONE.
Result: A STRONG SIZED DECREASE IN OI AT THE COMEX DESPITE THE GOOD SIZED RISE IN PRICE IN GOLD TRADING ON YESTERDAY ($5.80). IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THAT MANY OF THE DEPARTED COMEX LONGS ARE WAITING TO RECEIVE A PRIVATE EFP CONTRACT FOR EITHER FEBRUARY OR APRIL AND THESE GUYS ARE STILL NEGOTIATING THEIR DEAL. WE HAD ANOTHER GOOD SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONG TRANSFERRING TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE: 8445 AS THESE HAVE ALREADY BEEN NEGOTIATED. THERE OBVIOUSLY DOES NOT SEEM TO BE MUCH PHYSICAL GOLD AT THE COMEX AND YET WE ALSO OBSERVED A HUGE DELIVERY MONTH FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER. 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 8445 EFPCONTRACTS ISSUED, WE HAD A NET LOSS IN OPEN INTEREST OF 16,372 contracts ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
8445 CONTRACTS MOVE TO LONDON AND 24,817 CONTRACTS DECREASED AT THE COMEX. (in tonnes, the LOSS in total oi equates to 77.19 TONNES). ON MONDAY WE SHOULD SEE A HUGE INCREASE IN EFP'S DUE TO THE HUMONGOUS LONGS THAT HAVE DEPARTED THE COMEX AND THEY AWAIT PATIENTLY FOR THE FIAT BONUS PLUS A LONDON BASED FORWARD CONTRACT.
we had: 1 notice(s) filed upon for 100 oz of gold.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
With respect to our two criminal funds, the GLD and the SLV:
GLD
With gold down $11.00, we had no changes in gold inventory at the GLD/
Inventory rests tonight: 849.32 tonnes.
SLV/
A SMALL CHANGES IN SILVER INVENTORY AT THE SLV/ WITH SILVER UP TODAY AND YESTERDAY, THEY COULD ONLY MUSTER A GAIN OF 848,00 OZ AT THE SLV /
INVENTORY RESTS AT 313.896 MILLION OZ/
Let us head over to the comex:
The total gold comex open interest FELL BY A HUGE 24,817 CONTRACTS DOWN to an OI level of 573,135 DESPITE THE GOOD SIZED RISE IN THE PRICE OF GOLD ($5.80 GAIN WITH RESPECT TO YESTERDAY'S TRADING). WE HAD CONSIDERABLE COMEX GOLD LIQUIDATION. HOWEVER THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED ANOTHER STRONG COMEX TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS. WE HAD A GOOD SIZED 7766 EFP'S ISSUED FOR FEBRUARY AND 679 EFP's FOR APRIL: TOTAL 8445 CONTRACTS. 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 FORWARD... THE COMEX IS NOW AN ABSOLUTE FRAUD!!
ON A NET BASIS IN OPEN INTEREST WE LOST TODAY: 16,372 OI CONTRACTS IN THAT 8445 LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS FORWARDS TO LONDON AND WE LOST 24,817 COMEX CONTRACTS. NET LOSS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 16,272 contracts OR 1,627,200 OZ OR 50.60 TONNES
Result: A STRONG DECREASE IN COMEX OPEN INTEREST DESPITE THE HUGE RISE IN YESTERDAY'S GOLD TRADING ($5.80.) WE HAD CONSIDERABLE COMEX GOLD LIQUIDATION. TOTAL OPEN INTEREST LOSS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 16,3712 OI CONTRACTS..
We have now entered the active contract month of JANUARY. The open interest for the front month of JANUARY saw it's open interest FALL by 2 contracts FALLING TO 2. We had 3 notices served upon yesterday so we GAINED 1 contract or an additional 100 oz of gold will stand AT THE COMEX in this non active month of January as these guys joined others in obtaining a London based forward contract.
FEBRUARY saw a LOSS of 52,168 contacts DOWN to 105,365. March saw a GAIN of 164 contracts UP to 1818. April saw a GAIN of 24,732 contracts UP to 329,502.
We had 1 notice(s) filed upon today for 100 oz
PRELIMINARY VOLUME TODAY ESTIMATED; not available
FINAL NUMBERS CONFIRMED FOR YESTERDAY: 698,050
comex gold volumes are RISING AGAIN
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxAnd now for the wild silver comex results.
Total silver OI FELL BY A SMALL 1456 CONTRACTS FROM 205,874 DOWN TO 204,418 DESPITE YESTERDAY'S GOOD SIZED 13 CENT GAIN. WE WERE ALSO INFORMED THAT WE HAD ANOTHER GIGANTIC SIZED 2698 EMERGENCY EFP'S FOR MARCH ISSUED BY OUR BANKERS (WITH 50 EFP CONTRACTS FOR FEBRUARY..AS SOMEBODY WAS IN URGENT NEED OF METAL AND NEEDED TO GO TO LONDON TO GET IT AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS) TO COMEX LONGS WHO RECEIVED A FIAT BONUS PLUS A DELIVERABLE PRODUCT OVER IN LONDON: THE TOTAL EFP'S ISSUED: 2748. THE SILVER BOYS HAVE STARTED TO MIGRATE TO LONDON FROM THE START OF DELIVERY MONTH AND CONTINUING RIGHT THROUGH UNTIL FIRST DAY NOTICE JUST LIKE WE ARE WITNESSING TODAY. USUALLY WE NOTED THAT CONTRACTION IN OI OCCURRED ONLY DURING THE LAST WEEK OF AN UPCOMING ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH AS WE HAVE JUST SEEN IN GOLD TODAY. THIS PROCESS HAS JUST BEGUN IN EARNEST IN SILVER STARTING IN SEPTEMBER 2017. HOWEVER, IN GOLD, WE HAVE BEEN WITNESSING THIS FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. NICK LAIRD WAS KIND ENOUGH TO SUPPLY US THE TOTAL FOR 2017 GOLD EFP'S AND IT WAS 6600 TONNES FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR. WE HAD SOME LONG COMEX SILVER LIQUIDATION AND A HUGE SIZED RISE IN TOTAL SILVER OI. WE ARE ALSO WITNESSING A FAIR AMOUNT OF SILVER OUNCES STANDING FOR COMEX METAL IN THIS NON ACTIVE JANUARY AS WELL AS THAT CONTINUAL MIGRATION OF EFPS OVER TO LONDON. ON A PERCENTAGE BASIS THERE ARE MORE EFP'S ISSUED FOR GOLD THAN SILVER. ON A NET BASIS WE GAINED 1292 SILVER OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS:
1456 CONTRACT LOSS AT THE COMEX COMBINING WITH THE ADDITION OF 2748 OI CONTRACTSNAVIGATING OVER TO LONDON.
NET GAIN TWO EXCHANGES: 1292 CONTRACTS
We are now in the poor non active delivery month of January and here the OI LOST 0 contracts REMAINING AT 3. We had 1 notice served upon yesterday, so we GAINED 1 contract or an additional 5,000 oz will stand for delivery AT THE COMEX AND QUEUE JUMPING CONTINUES
February saw a GAIN OF 54 OI contracts RISING TO 200. The March contract LOST 3646 contracts DOWN to 138,390.
We had 1 notice(s) filed for NIL 5,000 for the January 2018 contract for silver
INITIAL standings for JANUARY
Jan 26/2018.
For JANUARY:Today, 0 notice(s) were issued from JPMorgan dealer account and 0 notices were issued from their client or customer account. The total of all issuance by all participants equates to 1 contract(s) of which 0 notices were stopped (received) by j.P. Morgan dealer and 0 notice(s) was (were) stopped/ Received) by j.P.Morgan customer account.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxTo calculate the INITIAL total number of gold ounces standing for the JANUARY. contract month, we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (696) x 100 oz or 69600 oz, to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of JAN. (4 contracts) minus the number of notices served upon today (1 x 100 oz per contract) equals 69,900 oz, the number of ounces standing in this active month of JANUARY
Thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the JANUARY contract month:
No of notices served (696 x 100 oz or ounces + {(4)OI for the front month minus the number of notices served upon today (1 x 100 oz which equals 69,900 oz standing in this active delivery month of JANUARY (2.1710 tonnes). THERE IS 17.629 TONNES OF REGISTERED GOLD AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY SO FAR.
WE GAINED 1 CONTRACTS OR AN ADDITIONAL 100 OZ WILL STAND IN THIS NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF JANUARY
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ON FIRST DAY NOTICE FOR JANUARY 2017, THE INITIAL GOLD STANDING: 3.904 TONNES STANDING
BY THE END OF THE MONTH: FINAL: 3.555 TONNES STOOD FOR COMEX DELIVERY AS THE REMAINDER HAD TRANSFERRED OVER TO LONDON FORWARDS.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I have a sneaky feeling that these withdrawals of gold in kilobars are being used in the hypothecating process and are being used in the raiding of gold!The gold comex is an absolute fraud. The use of kilobars and exact weights makes the data totally absurd and fraudulent! To me, the only thing that makes sense is the fact that "kilobars: are entries of hypothecated gold sent to other jurisdictions so that they will not be short with their underwritten derivatives in that jurisdiction. This would be similar to the rehypothecated gold used by Jon Corzine at MF Global.
IN THE LAST 15 MONTHS 65 NET TONNES HAS LEFT THE COMEX.
end
And now for silver
AND NOW THE DECEMBER DELIVERY MONTH
DECEMBER FINAL standings
we had no inventory movement at the dealer side of things
total inventory movement dealer: nil oz
we had 1 inventory deposits into the customer account
i) JPMORGAN Deposit: 599,110.110 oz
ii) into Scotia: 587,131.400
total inventory deposits: 1,186,241.510 oz
we had 3 withdrawals from the customer account;
i) out of Brinks: 302,956.900 oz
ii) Out of CNT: 1193,538.740 oz
iii) out of HSBC: 841,551,600 oz
total withdrawals; 2,338,047.240 oz
we had 0 adjustment
total dealer silver: 45.461 million
total dealer + customer silver: 245.996 million oz
The total number of notices filed today for the JANUARY. contract month is represented by 1 contract(s) FOR 5,000 oz. To calculate the number of silver ounces that will stand for delivery in JANUARY., we take the total number of notices filed for the month so far at 728 x 5,000 oz = 3,640,000 oz to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of JAN. (3) and the number of notices served upon today (1 x 5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.
.
Thus the INITIAL standings for silver for the JANUARY contract month: 728(notices served so far)x 5000 oz + OI for front month of JANUARY(3) -number of notices served upon today (1)x 5000 oz equals 3,650,000 oz of silver standing for the JANUARY contract month. This is VERY GOOD for this NONACTIVE delivery month of JANUARY. WE GAINED 1 CONTRACT OR AN ADDITIONAL 5,000 OZ WILL STAND FOR DELIVERY IN THIS NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF JANUARY AS QUEUE JUMPING CONTINUES AS WE PROCEED TO MONTH'S END.
ON FIRST DAY NOTICE FOR THE JANUARY 2017 CONTRACT WE HAD 3.790 MILLION OZ STAND.
THE FINAL STANDING: 3,730 MILLION OZ
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I almost fell from my chair: we received volumes at the comex and they were on time
ESTIMATED VOLUME FOR TODAY: not available yet
CONFIRMED VOLUME FOR YESTERDAY: 140,940 CONTRACTS
YESTERDAY'S CONFIRMED VOLUME OF 140,940 CONTRACTS EQUATES TO 520 MILLION OZ OR 74.53% 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

At 3:30 pm we receive a totally useless COT report which gives us position levels of our major players at the comex. Of course, the liability of the bankers is much greater than indicated due to the huge number of EFP's issued:
Our large speculators
Those large specs that have been long in gold added another 3949 contracts to their long side
those large specs that have been short in gold added a tiny 976 contracts to their short side
Our commercials
those commercials that have been long in gold added (??) a huge 3256 contracts to their long side
those commercials that have been short in gold added another 5301 contracts to their short side and this does not include all the EFP transfers to London. The obligation still rests with the bankers on these EFP contracts but the obligation now rests in London
Our small specs
those small specs that have been long in gold added 1530 contracts to their long side
those small specs that have been short in gold added another 2458 contracts to their short side and they have been blown up by now.
and now for your silver COT
if the following is going on at the comex, it is also going on in London
it sure looks like we are getting silver capitulation by our bankers
Our large speculators
those large specs that have been long in silver pitched a surprising 3673 contracts
those large specs that have been short in silver added 4458 contacts to their short side >>??
Our commercials
those commercials that have been long in silver added a huge 3730 contracts to their long side
those commercials that have been short in silver covered a net 4916 contracts and most of these were transferred to London
Our small specs
those small specs that have been long in silver added a small 503 contracts to their long side
those small specs that have been short in silver added 1018 contracts to their short side.
