Let us have a look at the data for today
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
In silver, the total OPEN INTEREST ROSE BY A SMALL SIZED 469 CONTRACTS FROM 211,275 UP TO 212,996 DESPITE YESTERDAY'S 3 CENT LOSS IN SILVER PRICING. WE HAVE NOW WITNESSED A SLOW COMEX ACCUMULATION THESE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. ON TOP OF THIS WE HAVE ALSO WITNESSED A LARGE AMOUNT OF PHYSICAL METAL STAND FOR COMEX DELIVERY(OVER 30 MILLION OZ AT THE COMEX) AS WELL AS 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 STRONG SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONGS TRANSFERRING THEIR CONTRACTS TO LONDONTHROUGH THE EFP: 3603 EFP'S FOR SEPT. , 0 EFP'S FOR DECEMBER AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS AND THEREFORE TOTAL ISSUANCE: OF 3603 CONTRACTS. WITH THE TRANSFER OF 3603 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 3603 EFP CONTRACTS TRANSLATES INTO 18.015 MILLION OZ AND ACCOMPANYING:
1.THE 3 CENT LOSS 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) AND NOW JULY/ 2018 WITH 30.140 MILLION OZ INITIALLY STANDING FOR DELIVERY(SEE DATA BELOW).
ACCUMULATION FOR EFP'S/SILVER/J.P.MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES, / STARTING FROM FIRST DAY NOTICE/FOR MONTH OF JUNE:
26,831 CONTRACTS (FOR 13 TRADING DAYS TOTAL 26,831 CONTRACTS) OR 134.16 MILLION OZ: (AVERAGE PER DAY: 2063 CONTRACTS OR 10.319 MILLION OZ/DAY)
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SUPPLY THIS MONTH IN SILVER: SO FAR THIS MONTH OF JULY: 124.16 MILLION PAPER OZ HAVE MORPHED OVER TO LONDON. THIS REPRESENTS AROUND 17.73% 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: 1,793.87 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
RESULT: WE HAD A SMALL SIZED INCREASE IN COMEX OI SILVER COMEX CONTRACTS OF 469 DESPITE THE 3 CENT LOSS IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX YESTERDAY. THE CME NOTIFIED US THAT WE HAD A STRONG SIZED EFP ISSUANCE OF 3603 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) . FROM THE CME DATA: 3603 EFP'S FOR SEPT, 0 EFP'S FOR DECEMBER AND ZERO FOR ALL OVER MONTHS FOR A DELIVERABLE FORWARD CONTRACT OVER IN LONDON WITH A FIAT BONUS (TOTAL: 3603). TODAY WE GAINED A CONSIDERABLE SIZED: 4072 TOTAL OI CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
i.e 3603 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS HEADED FOR LONDON (EFP's) TOGETHER WITH AN INCREASE OF 469 OI COMEX CONTRACTS. AND ALL OF THIS DEMAND HAPPENED WITH A 3 CENT FALL IN PRICE OF SILVER AND A CLOSING PRICE OF $15.57 WITH RESPECT TO YESTERDAY'S TRADING. YET WE STILL HAVE A GIGANTIC AMOUNT OF SILVER STANDING AT THE COMEX FOR DELIVERY IN THIS ACTIVE JULY DELIVERY MONTH OF MORE THAN 30 MILLION OZ. IT SURE LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER FAILED BANKER SHORT COVERING EXERCISE AS BANKERS ARE SCRAMBLING TO COVER THEIR HUGE SHORTFALL.
In ounces AT THE COMEX, the OI is still represented by OVER 1 BILLION oz i.e. 1.069 MILLION OZ TO BE EXACT or 153% of annual global silver production (ex Russia & ex China).
FOR THE NEW FRONT JULY MONTH/ THEY FILED AT THE COMEX: 122 NOTICE(S) FOR 610,000 OZ OF SILVER
IN SILVER, WE SET THE NEW 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
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) AND NOW JULY 2018 AMOUNT INITIALLY STANDING: 30.140 MILLION OZ )HUGE RECORD OPEN INTEREST IN SILVER 243,411 CONTRACTS (OR 1.217 BILLION OZ/ SET APRIL 9/2018HUGE 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 3850 CONTRACTS UP TO 532,128 DESPITE THE TINY GAIN IN THE COMEX GOLD PRICE/YESTERDAY'S TRADING (A GAIN IN PRICE OF $.40). WE ARE NOW IN THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF JULY. NO DOUBT THE BOYS ARE CASHING IN THEIR COMEX LONGS TO BEGIN THE PROCESS TO MOVE INTO LONDON FORWARDS. THE CME RELEASED THE DATA FOR EFP ISSUANCE AND IT TOTALED A HUMONGOUS SIZED 10,812 CONTRACTS : AUGUST SAW THE ISSUANCE OF: 10,812 CONTRACTS, DECEMBER HAD AN ISSUANCE OF 0 CONTACTS AND THEN ALL OTHER MONTHS ZERO. The new COMEX OI for the gold complex rests at 532,128. 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 HUMONGOUS OI GAIN IN TOTAL CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES OF 14,662 CONTRACTS: 3850 OI CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX AND 10,812 EFP OI CONTRACTS WHICH NAVIGATED OVER TO LONDON. THUS TOTAL OI GAIN: 14,662 CONTRACTS OR 1,462,200 OZ = 45,60 TONNES. AND THIS IS MIND BOGGLING: ALL OF THIS HUGE DEMAND OCCURRED DESPITE A TINY GAIN IN THE PRICE OF GOLD/ YESTERDAY TO THE TUNE OF $0.40???.
YESTERDAY, WE HAD 9611 EFP'S ISSUED.
ACCUMULATION OF EFP'S GOLD AT J.P. MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES: (EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL) FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE : 105,549 CONTRACTS OR 10,554,900 OZ OR 328.30 TONNES (13 TRADING DAYS AND THUS AVERAGING: 8119 EFP CONTRACTS PER TRADING DAY OR 811,900 OZ/ TRADING DAY),,
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SIZE OF THESE EFP TRANSFERS : THIS MONTH IN 13 TRADING DAYS IN TONNES: 328.30 TONNES
TOTAL ANNUAL GOLD PRODUCTION, 2017, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD EX CHINA EX RUSSIA: 2555 TONNES
THUS EFP TRANSFERS REPRESENTS 328.30/2550 x 100% TONNES = 12.87% OF GLOBAL ANNUAL PRODUCTION SO FAR IN JULY ALONE.***
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S YEAR 2018 TO DATE: 4,431.15* 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)
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 3850 DESPITE THE TINY GAIN IN PRICING (40 CENTS) THAT GOLD UNDERTOOK YESTERDAY // . WE ALSO HAD A HUMONGOUS SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONG TRANSFERRING TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE: 10,812 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 10,812 EFP CONTRACTS ISSUED, WE HAD A VERY STRONG NET GAIN OF 14,662 CONTRACTS IN TOTAL OPEN INTEREST ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
10,895 CONTRACTS MOVE TO LONDON AND 3850 CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX. (in tonnes, the GAIN in total oi equates to 45,60 TONNES). ..AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT AND THIS IS MIND BOGGLING: ALL OF THIS DEMAND OCCURRED DESPITE THE LOSS OF $0.40 IN YESTERDAY'S TRADING AT THE COMEX!!!. THE COMEX IS AN OUTRIGHT FRAUD
we had: 2 notice(s) filed upon for 200 oz of gold at the comex.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
With respect to our two criminal funds, the GLD and the SLV:
GLD...
WITH GOLD DOWN $1.00 TODAY: /
NO CHANGES IN GOLD INVENTORY AT THE GLD:
/GLD INVENTORY 794.01 TONNES
Inventory rests tonight: 794.01 tonnes.
TO ALL INVESTORS THINKING OF BUYING GOLD THROUGH THE GLD ROUTE: YOU ARE MAKING A TERRIBLE MISTAKE AS THE CROOKS ARE USING WHATEVER GOLD COMES IN TO ATTACK BY SELLING THAT GOLD. IT SURE SEEMS TO ME THAT THE GOLD OBLIGATIONS AT THE GLD EXCEED THEIR INVENTORY
SLV/
WITH SILVER DOWN 17 CENTS TODAY :
VERY STRANGE!! A HUGE CHANGE IN SILVER INVENTORY AT THE SLV: A DEPOSIT OF 752,000 OZ OF SILVER INTO THE SLV DESPITE THE HUGE FALL IN PRICE.
/INVENTORY RESTS AT 327.551 MILLION OZ/
NOTE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GLD AND SLV: THE CROOKS CAN RAID GOLD BECAUSE THEY DO HAVE SOME PHYSICAL. THEY DO NOT RAID SILVER PROBABLY BECAUSE THERE IS NO REAL SILVER INVENTORIES BEHIND THEM
Let us head over to the comex:
The total gold comex open interest ROSE BY A CONSIDERABLE SIZED 3850 CONTRACTS UP to an OI level 532,128 DESPITE THE TINY GAIN IN THE PRICE OF GOLD ($.40 GAIN/ YESTERDAY'S COMEXTRADING). 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. WE WILL WATCH IF THIS CONTINUES AS WE APPROACH THE STRONG DELIVERY MONTH OF AUGUST. THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED A HUMONGOUS SIZED COMEX TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS., THAT IS 10,812 EFP CONTRACTS WERE ISSUED:
FOR AUGUST 10,812 CONTRACTS, DECEMBER ISSUANCE OF 0, AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS:
TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 10,812 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 BASED FORWARD.
ON A NET BASIS IN OPEN INTEREST WE GAINED THE FOLLOWING TODAY ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES: A VERY STRONG 14,662 OI TOTAL CONTRACTS IN THAT 10,812 LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS FORWARDS TO LONDON AND WE GAINED 3850 COMEX CONTRACTS.
NET GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 14,662 contracts OR 1,466,200 OZ OR 45.60 TONNES.
Result: A STRONG SIZED INCREASE IN COMEX OPEN INTEREST DESPITE THE TINY GAIN IN PRICE/YESTERDAY (ENDING UP WITH A GAIN IN PRICE OF $0.40). THE TOTAL OPEN INTEREST GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 14,662 OI CONTRACTS..
We have now entered the non-active contract month of JULY where we LOST 4 CONTRACTS TO STAND AT 140. CONTRACTS. WE HAD 1 NOTICE FILED YESTERDAY SO WE LOST 3 CONTRACTS OR AN ADDITIONAL 300 OZ OF GOLD WILL NOT STAND AT THE COMEX AS THESE GOLD INVESTORS MORPHED INTO LONDON BASED FORWARDS AND RECEIVED A SWEETENER FIAT FOR THEIR EFFORTS.
AFTER JULY COMES THE ACTIVE AUGUST CONTRACT MONTH AND HERE THE OI LOST 8473 CONTRACTS DOWN TO 245,732 CONTRACTS. AFTER AUGUST, SEPTEMBER LOST 1 CONTRACT AND THUS FALLS TO 566 CONTRACTS. THE NEXT ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH IS OCTOBER AND HERE THE OI ROSE BY 774 CONTRACTS UP TO 32,489 CONTRACTS.
WE HAD 2 NOTICE FILED AT THE COMEX FOR 200 OZ.
ON FIRST DAY NOTICE FOR THE JULY/2017 COMEX GOLD CONTRACT WE HAD A TINY 14,600 OZ OF GOLD (.4544 TONNES) INITIALLY STAND FOR DELIVERY. BY MONTH END JULY/2017 WE HAD SOME QUEUE JUMPING AND THE FINAL NUMBER STANDING: 17,600 OZ OR .5974 TONNES. THUS WE HAVE ALREADY SURPASSED LAST YEAR WITH TODAY'S TOTAL AS 23,900 OZ ARE STANDING (.7433 TONNES). see data below
FOR COMPARISON FOR THE UPCOMING AUGUST 2017 GOLD COMEX CONTRACT MONTH:
A)AT THIS STAGE IN THE DELIVERY CYCLE/JULY 20/2017 WE HAD 193,720 CONTRACTS O/S VS TODAY: 245,732,
THERE ARE 7 READING DAYS LEFT BEFORE FIRST DAY NOTICE AUGUST 2018 CONTACT MONTH AND THIS COMPARES WITH 7 TRADING DAYS IN COMPARISON TO THE AUGUST 2017 YEAR.
(SO WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A HUMDINGER OF A FIRST DAY NOTICE AUGUST CONTRACT MONTH WITH A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF LONGS STANDING FOR DELIVERY)
B) INITIALLY WE HAD A GOOD 831,100 OZ (25.88 TONNES) STAND FOR DELIVERY ON FIRST DAY NOTICE JULY 31.2017 FOR THE AUGUST CONTRACT MONTH
C) AT MONTH'S END, AUGUST 30 WE HAD 524,500 OZ OR 16.33 TONNES STAND FOR DELIVERY AS WE HAD CONSIDERABLE TRANSFERS TO LONDON VIA THE EFP'S
Trading Volumes on the COMEX
PRELIMINARY COMEX VOLUME FOR TODAY: 481,568 contracts
CONFIRMED COMEX VOL. FOR YESTERDAY: 326,544 CONTRACT,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And now for the wild silver comex results.
Total silver OI ROSE BY A SMALL SIZED 469 CONTRACTS FROM 212,527 UP TO 212,996 (AND A LITTLE CLOSER TO THE THE NEW RECORD OI FOR SILVER SET APRIL 9.2018/ 243,411 CONTRACTS) DESPITE THE 3 CENT FALL IN SILVER PRICING/ YESTERDAY. SINCE WE ARE NOW INTO THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF JULY, WE WERE INFORMED THAT WE VERY STRONG SIZED 3603 EFP CONTRACTS FOR SEPT., 0 EFP CONTRACTS FOR DECEMBER 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: 3603. ON A NET BASIS WE GAINED 4072 SILVER OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS AS WE OBTAINED A 469 CONTRACT GAIN AT THE COMEX COMBINING WITH THE ADDITION OF 3603 OI CONTRACTS NAVIGATING OVER TO LONDON.
NET GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 4072 CONTRACTS
AMOUNT STANDING FOR SILVER AT THE COMEX
We are now in the active delivery month of JULY and here the front month FELL by 75 contacts to stand at 670 contracts. We had 70 notices filed yesterday so we finally lost 5 contracts or an additional 25,000 oz decided to morph into London based forwards and they received a fiat bonus for their efforts.
The next delivery month, after July is the non active delivery month of August and here we lost 73 contracts to stand at 1166. The next active delivery month after August for silver is September and here the OI rose by 391 contracts UP to 154,067
We had 122 notice(s) filed for 610,000 OZ for the JULY 2018 COMEX contract for silver
FROM LAST YEARS DATA, ON FIRST DATE NOTICE FOR THE JULY 2017 SILVER COMEX DELIVERY MONTH WE HAD 12.115 MILLION OZ OF SILVER STANDING FOR DELIVERY. AT MONTH'S END WE HAD 16.435 MILLION OZ EVENTUALLY STAND AS WE ALREADY HAD QUEUE JUMPING BEGIN IN EARNEST FROM APRIL 2017 ONWARD EVEN TO TODAY. SO WITH TODAY'S NUMBERS WE SURPASSED LAST YEAR'S LEVEL BY A WIDE MARGIN.
AND NOW COMPARISON VS AUGUST LAST YR:
ON FIRST DAY NOTICE JULY 31/2017: 1,965,000 OZ STOOD FOR DELIVERY
THE FINAL AMOUNT OF SILVER STANDING: AUGUST 30.2017: 6,245,000 OZ AS WE HAD CONSIDERABLE QUEUE JUMPING.
FOR THE AUGUST CONTRACT MONTH:
LAST YEAR AT THIS TIME JULY 20.2017 WE HAD 437 SILVER COMEX OI OUTSTANDING VS TODAY: 1166
SO, AS IN GOLD, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A CONSIDERABLY LARGER AMOUNT OF SILVER STANDING FOR THE NON ACTIVE CONTRACT MONTH OF AUGUST THAN LAST YEAR.
INITIAL standings for JULY/GOLD
JULY 19/2018.
For JULY:
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 2 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 JULY. contract month, we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (98) x 100 oz or 9800 oz, to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of JULY. (140 contracts) minus the number of notices served upon today (2 x 100 oz per contract) equals 23,600 oz,(.7340 tonnes) the number of ounces standing in this non active month of JULY
Thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the JULY contract month:
No of notices served (98 x 100 oz) + {(140)OI for the front month minus the number of notices served upon today (2 x 100 oz )which equals 23,600 oz standing in this NON - active delivery month of JULY .
We lost 3 contracts or an additional 300 oz will not stand for comex delivery and these guys morphed into London based forwards..
FOR THE INITIAL COMEX JULY 2018 CONTRACT MONTH: AMOUNT STANDING
23.600 OZ VS LAST YEAR'S INITIAL STANDING: 14,600 OZ
THERE ARE ONLY 7.6588 TONNES OF REGISTERED COMEX GOLD AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY AGAINST 0.7433 TONNES STANDING FOR JULY
total registered or dealer gold: 240,026.915 oz or 7.4658 tonnestotal registered and eligible (customer) gold; 8,661,381.883 oz 269,40 tonnes
IN THE LAST 24 MONTHS 85 NET TONNES HAS LEFT THE COMEX.
end
And now for silver
AND NOW THE APRIL DELIVERY MONTH
JULY INITIAL standings/SILVER
we had 0 inventory movement at the dealer side of things
total dealer deposits: nil oz
total dealer withdrawals: nil oz
we had 0 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 141 million oz of total silver inventory or 52.0% of all official comex silver. (141 million/270 million)
ii) into everybody else: nil oz
total customer deposits today: nil oz
we had 2 withdrawals from the customer account;
i) Out of Brinks: 59,861.570 oz
ii) Out of CNT; 1959.454 oz
total withdrawals: 61,821.024 oz
we had 0 adjustments/
total dealer silver: 78.302 million
total dealer + customer silver: 279.954 million oz
The total number of notices filed today for the JULY. contract month is represented by 122 contract(s) FOR 610,000 oz. To calculate the number of silver ounces that will stand for delivery in JULY., we take the total number of notices filed for the month so far at 5480 x 5,000 oz = 27,400,000 oz to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of JULY. (670) and the number of notices served upon today (122 x 5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.
.
Thus the INITIAL standings for silver for the JULY/2018 contract month: 5480(notices served so far)x 5000 oz + OI for front month of JULY(670) -number of notices served upon today (122)x 5000 oz equals 30,140,000 oz of silver standing for the JULY contract month
WE LOST 5 CONTRACTS OR AN ADDITIONAL 25,000 OZ WILL NOT STAND AS THESE GUYS MORPHED INTO LONDON BASED FORWARDS AND RECEIVED A FIAT SWEETENER FOR THEIR EFFORTS.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES:
THE INITIAL STANDING FOR SILVER AT THE COMEX JULY 2017: 12.115 MILLION OZ ALTHOUGH AT MONTH'S END: 16.435 MILLION OZ STOOD FOR DELIVERY. THIS COMPARES WITH TODAY'S INITIAL STANDING FOR SILVER OF 30.140 MILLION OZ.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ESTIMATED VOLUME FOR TODAY: 102,173 CONTRACTS
CONFIRMED VOLUME FOR YESTERDAY: 76,060 CONTRACTS absolutely criminal
YESTERDAY'S CONFIRMED VOLUME OF 76,060 CONTRACTS EQUATES TO 380 million OZ OR 54.3% 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
