Let us have a look at the data for today
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
In silver, the total OPEN INTEREST FELL BY A FAIR SIZED 888 CONTRACTS FROM 206,030 DOWN TO 205,142 DESPITE FRIDAY'S 2 CENT RISE IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX. TODAY WE MOVED FURTHER FROM 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 FAIR SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONGS TRANSFERRING THEIR CONTRACTS TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP:
0 EFP'S FOR SEPT. 563 EFP'S FOR DECEMBER AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS AND THEREFORE TOTAL ISSUANCE: OF 563 CONTRACTS. WITH THE TRANSFER OF 563 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 563 EFP CONTRACTS TRANSLATES INTO 2.815MILLION OZ ACCOMPANYING:
1.THE 2 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 NOW 39.475 MILLION OZ STANDING SO FAR IN SEPT.
ACCUMULATION FOR EFP'S/SILVER/J.P.MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES, / STARTING FROM FIRST DAY NOTICE/FOR MONTH OF SEPT:
27,054CONTRACTS (FOR 15 TRADING DAYS TOTAL 27.054 CONTRACTS) OR 135.270 MILLION OZ: (AVERAGE PER DAY: 1803 CONTRACTS OR 9.018 MILLION OZ/DAY)
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SUPPLY THIS MONTH IN SILVER: SO FAR THIS MONTH OF SEPT: 135.270 MILLION PAPER OZ HAVE MORPHED OVER TO LONDON. THIS REPRESENTS AROUND 19.28% 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: 2,182.09 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.
RESULT: WE HAD A FAIR SIZED DECREASE IN COMEX OI SILVER COMEX CONTRACTS OF 888 DESPITE THE 2 CENT RISE IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX YESTERDAY. THE CME NOTIFIED US THAT WE HAD A FAIR SIZED EFP ISSUANCE OF 563 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 LOST A SMALL SIZED: 325 TOTAL OI CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
i.e 563 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS HEADED FOR LONDON (EFP's) TOGETHER WITH DECREASE OF 888 OI COMEX CONTRACTS. AND ALL OF THIS DEMAND HAPPENED WITH A 2 CENT RISE IN PRICE OF SILVER AND A CLOSING PRICE OF $14.31 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 39.475 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. 1.026 MILLION OZ TO BE EXACT or 147% of annual global silver production (ex Russia & ex China).
FOR THE NEW FRONT AUGUST MONTH/ THEY FILED AT THE COMEX: 392 NOTICE(S) FOR 1,960,0000 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 244,196 CONTRACTS 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. AND NOW SEPT: AN INITIAL HUGE 39.475 MILLION OZ.HUGE 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 FAIR SIZED 1160 CONTRACTS UP TO 474,343 DESPITE THE LOSS IN THE COMEX GOLD PRICE/FRIDAY'S TRADING (A FALL IN PRICE OF $9.90). THE CME RELEASED THE DATA FOR EFP ISSUANCE AND IT TOTALED A VERY STRONG SIZED 10,156 CONTRACTS:
OCTOBER HAD 0 EFP'S ISSUED AND, DECEMBER HAD AN ISSUANCE OF 10,156 CONTACTS AND ALL OTHER MONTHS ZERO. The NEW COMEX OI for the gold complex rests at 474,343. 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 AN VERY STRONG SIZED OI GAIN IN TOTAL CONTRACTS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES OF 11,316 CONTRACTS: 1160 OI CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX AND 10,156 EFP OI CONTRACTS WHICH NAVIGATED OVER TO LONDON. THUS TOTAL OI GAIN: 11,316 CONTRACTS OR 1,136,000 OZ = 35.19 TONNES. AND ALL OF THIS DEMAND OCCURRED WITH A FALL IN THE PRICE OF GOLD/ YESTERDAY TO THE TUNE OF $9.90???
YESTERDAY, WE HAD 7834 EFP'S ISSUED.
ACCUMULATION OF EFP'S GOLD AT J.P. MORGAN'S HOUSE OF BRIBES: (EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL) FOR THE MONTH OF SEPT : 112,930 CONTRACTS OR 11,293,000 OZ OR 351.25 TONNES (15 TRADING DAYS AND THUS AVERAGING: 7528 EFP CONTRACTS PER TRADING DAY OR 752,800 OZ/ TRADING DAY),,
TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA AS TO THE HUGE SIZE OF THESE EFP TRANSFERS : THIS MONTH IN 15 TRADING DAYS IN TONNES: 351.25 TONNES
TOTAL ANNUAL GOLD PRODUCTION, 2017, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD EX CHINA EX RUSSIA: 2555 TONNES
THUS EFP TRANSFERS REPRESENTS 351.25/2550 x 100% TONNES = 13.77% OF GLOBAL ANNUAL PRODUCTION SO FAR IN JULY ALONE.***
ACCUMULATION OF GOLD EFP'S YEAR 2018 TO DATE: 5,548.03* 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)
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 FAIR SIZED INCREASE IN OI AT THE COMEX OF 1160 DESPITE THE LOSS IN PRICING ($9.90 THAT GOLD UNDERTOOK FRIDAY) // . WE ALSO HAD A VERY STRONG SIZED NUMBER OF COMEX LONG TRANSFERRING TO LONDON THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE: 10,156 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 10,156 EFP CONTRACTS ISSUED, WE HAD A VERY STRONG GAIN OF 11,316 CONTRACTS IN TOTAL OPEN INTEREST ON THE TWO EXCHANGES:
10,156 CONTRACTS MOVE TO LONDON AND 1160 CONTRACTS INCREASED AT THE COMEX. (in tonnes, the GAIN in total oi equates to 35.19 TONNES). ..AND ALL OF THIS HUGE DEMAND OCCURRED WITH A LOSS OF $9.90 IN FRIDAY'S TRADING AT THE COMEX.???
we had: 0 notice(s) filed upon for NIL oz of gold at the comex.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
With respect to our two criminal funds, the GLD and the SLV:
GLD...
WITH GOLD UP $3.20 TODAY: /
NO CHANGE IN GOLD INVENTORY AT THE GLD:
/GLD INVENTORY 742.23 TONNES
Inventory rests tonight: 742.23 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 1 CENT TODAY
WE HAD A HUGE CHANGE FOR SILVER : A DEPOSIT OF 1.692 MILLION OZ
/INVENTORY RESTS AT 336.665 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 GOOD SIZED 1160 CONTRACTS DOWN to an OI level 474,343 DESPITE THE FALL IN THE PRICE OF GOLD ($9.90 LOSS/ 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.
WE ARE NOW IN THE NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF SEPT.. THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED A STRONG SIZED COMEX TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS., THAT IS 10,156 EFP CONTRACTS WERE ISSUED:
OCTOBER: 0 EFP'S AND DECEMBER: 10,156 AND ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS:
TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 10156 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 12,349 TOTAL CONTRACTS IN THAT 10,156 LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS FORWARDS TO LONDON AND WE GAINED 2193 COMEX CONTRACTS.
NET GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 11,316 contracts OR 1,131,600 OZ OR 35.19 TONNES.
Result: A GOOD SIZED INCREASE IN COMEX OPEN INTEREST DESPITE THE FALL IN PRICE/ FRIDAY (ENDING UP WITH THE LOSS IN PRICE OF $9.90). THE TOTAL OPEN INTEREST GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 11,316 OI CONTRACTS..
We are now in the active contract month of SEPTEMBER. For the September contract month, we lost 0 contract and thus the number of open interest contracts standing for gold in this front month is 17 contracts. We had 0 notice filed yesterday so we gained 0 contract or an additional NIL oz will stand for gold and these guys refused to accept a fiat bonus and transfer to London.
THE NEXT ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH IS OCTOBER AND HERE THE OI LOST 677 CONTRACTS DOWN TO 29,102. NOVEMBER SAW A 183 CONTRACT GAIN TO STAND AT 271. DECEMBER SAW ITS OPEN INTEREST RISE BY 358 CONTRACTS UP TO 369,130.
WE HAD 0 NOTICES FILED AT THE COMEX FOR NIL OZ.
FOR THE SEPT GOLD CONTRACT MONTH;
FOR COMEX SEPT/2017 FIRST DAY NOTICE GOLD: 80,700 OZ OR 2.696 TONNES INITIALLY STOOD
BY THE END OF SEPTEMBER: 57,700 OZ OR 1.797 TONNES FINALLY STOOD AS THE OTHERS MORPHED INTO LONDON BASED FORWARDS.
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.
AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE OCTOBER TRADING MONTH: 333,300 OZ OR 10.367 TONNES FINALLY STOOD FOR DELIVERY AS WE HAD ONE DAY OF QUEUE JUMPING.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And now for the wild silver comex results.
Total silver OI FELL BY A FAIR SIZED 888 CONTRACTS FROM 206,660 DOWN TO 205,142 (AND FURTHER FROM 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 2 CENT GAIN IN PRICING.
WE ARE NOW INTO THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF SEPT.AND, WE WERE INFORMED THAT WE HAD A GOOD SIZED 563 EFP CONTRACTS:
FOR SEPT: 0 CONTRACTS AND FOR DECEMBER: 563 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: 563. ON A NET BASIS WE LOST 325 SILVER OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS AS WE OBTAINED A 888 CONTRACT LOSS AT THE COMEX COMBINING WITH THE ADDITION OF 563 OI CONTRACTS NAVIGATING OVER TO LONDON.
NET LOSS ON THE TWO EXCHANGES: 325 CONTRACTS...AND ALL OF LACK OF DEMAND OCCURRED WITH A 2 CENT GAIN
The next active delivery month after August for silver is September and here the OI FELL by 22 contracts DOWN to 961.
We had 28 notices filed on yesterday so we gained another 6 contracts or 30,000 ADDITIONAL oz will stand at the comex as these guys refused a fiat bonus as well as a London based forwards. For the past 17 months starting in April 2017, we have been witnessing on a constant basis queue jumping as the commercials seek physical silver immediately after first day notice. After a little holiday last week, queue jumping resumes in earnest in the silver pits. In the past 4 days we gained a whopping 8,565 million oz as there seems to be a huge fire (shortage) of silver somewhere.
October LOST 115 contracts to stand at 393. November saw a GAIN of 68 contracts to stand at 268.
After Nov., the next big delivery month is December and here the OI fell by 1108 contracts down to 174,850 contracts.
We had 392 notice(s) filed for 1,960,000 OZ for the SEPTEMBER 2018 COMEX contract for silver
Trading Volumes on the COMEX
PRELIMINARY COMEX VOLUME FOR TODAY: 206,548 contracts
CONFIRMED COMEX VOL. FOR YESTERDAY: 358,923 contracts
AND NOW FOR THE ACTIVE SEPTEMBER SILVER CONTRACT AND COMPARISON TO LAST YR:
ON FIRST DAY NOTICE FOR THE SEPT/2017 SILVER CONTRACT MONTH: 20.515 MILLION OZ STOOD FOR DELIVERY AND BY MONTH'S END: A HUGE 32.875 MILLION OZ WAS THE FINAL STANDING AS WE WERE WELL INTO THE PHENOMENON OF QUEUE JUMPING IN SILVER. THUS WE ARE WAY AHEAD OF LAST YEAR AS ALREADY WE HAVE 39.475 MILLION OZ OF SILVER INITIALLY STAND. AS I HAVE STATED ALL MONTH: "WE WILL NO DOUBT PASS LAST YEAR'S TOTAL OF 32.875 MILLION OZ ONCE SEPTEMBER ENDS AS THE BANKS SCRAMBLE FOR PHYSICAL SILVER."...AND WE SURELY ACCOMPLISHED THIS FEAT.
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.
INITIAL standings for SEPTEMBER/GOLD
SEPT. 24-/2018.
today we had ta little activity at the comex and as gold entered the comex vaults
today. Still no gold enter the dealer or registered side of things
we had 0 kilobar transaction/We had 0 inventory movement at the dealer accountstotal inventory deposit into the dealer accounts: NIL oztotal inventory withdrawals out of dealer accounts; nil ozwe had 0 withdrawal out of the customer account:total customer withdrawals: nil ozwe had 1 customer depositi) Into HSBC: 60,958.296 oztotal customer deposits: 60,958.296 ozwe had 0 adjustments
FOR THE SEPTEMBER 2018 CONTRACT MONTH)
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 0 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 SEPT/2018. contract month, we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (609) x 100 oz or 60,900 oz, to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of SEPT. (17 contracts) minus the number of notices served upon today (0 x 100 oz per contract) equals 62,600 OZ OR 1.9471 TONNES) the number of ounces standing in this non active month of SEPT
Thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the SEPT/2018 contract month:
No of notices served (609 x 100 oz) + {17)OI for the front month minus the number of notices served upon today (0 x 100 oz )which equals 62,600 oz standing OR 1.9471 TONNES in this NON active delivery month of SEPTEMBER.
We gained 0 contract or an additional nil oz will stand for physical gold at the comex and these guys refused to accept a fiat bonus to move their contracts over to London as queue jumping in gold intensifies. Let us see if this continues throughout the month as it looks like the commercials are scrambling to obtain any physical gold they get a hold of.
THERE ARE ONLY 4.511 TONNES OF REGISTERED COMEX GOLD AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY AGAINST 1.9471 TONNES STANDING FOR SEPTEMBER
total registered or dealer gold: 145,041.066 oz or 4.511 tonnestotal registered and eligible (customer) gold; 8,331,575.291 oz 259.11 tonnes
IN THE LAST 25 MONTHS 96 NET TONNES HAS LEFT THE COMEX.
end
And now for silver
AND NOW THE AUGUST DELIVERY MONTH
SEPTEMBER 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 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 CNT: 99,903.335 OZ
total customer deposits today: 99,903/335 oz
we had 3 withdrawals from the customer account;
i) Out of Int. Delaware: 35,102.330 oz
ii) Out of Delaware: 3017.250 oz
iii) Out of Scotia; 200,859..290
total withdrawals: 383,922.844 oz
we had 1 adjustment
i) out of CNT: 614,542.586 oz was adjusted out of the dealer CNT into the customer account of CNT
total dealer silver: 83.385 million
total dealer + customer silver: 291.277 million oz
The total number of notices filed today for the SEPTEMBER 2018. contract month is represented by 392 contract(s) FOR 1,960,000 oz. To calculate the number of silver ounces that will stand for delivery in SEPT., we take the total number of notices filed for the month so far at 7326 x 5,000 oz = 36,630,000 oz to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of SEPTEMBER. (983) and the number of notices served upon today (392 x 5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.
.
Thus the INITIAL standings for silver for the SEPT/2018 contract month: 7326(notices served so far)x 5000 oz + OI for front month of SEPTEMBER(983) -number of notices served upon today (392)x 5000 oz equals 39,475,000 oz of silver standing for the SEPT contract month. This is a huge number of oz standing!!
We gained 6 contracts or an additional 30,000 oz will stand at the comex as these guy refused to morph into London based forwards as well as refusing a fiat bonus
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ESTIMATED VOLUME FOR TODAY: 63,932 CONTRACTS
CONFIRMED VOLUME FOR YESTERDAY: 105,751CONTRACTS..
YESTERDAY'S CONFIRMED VOLUME OF 105,751 CONTRACTS EQUATES TO 528 million OZ OR 75.5% 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
