 Frequently Asked Questions on Silver  |
| Which kind of silver is best?
I like the cheapest form of silver available. I have never liked Silver Eagles, because the premium is always too high. I've always bought the "generic rounds", because you get more silver for your dollar. I also like the 100 oz. bars, when they are cheaper, which they are today.Thursday, April 2, 2020 |

| JPMorgan’s Motivation |
| To be sure, there are many who reject, out of hand, my allegation that JPMorgan has accumulated a massive amount of physical silver over the past seven years, amounting to 700 million ounces or more. That’s completely understandable, since I can’t document and point out all 700 million oz and few have taken the time to review the basis of my claim. It doesn’t matter that I first picked up on JPMorgan’s quest to acquire physical silver four years ago, by which time it had already accumulated 300 Thursday, March 8, 2018 |

 No Manipulation, After All |
| In the never-ending search to either verify or rebut one’s own findings, I’d like you to consider something different today. I’m going to ask you to set aside my highly specific allegations of wrong-doing in the silver and gold markets, mostly centering on JPMorgan, and focus instead on whether if what I allege is really wrong or even matters much. Even though my allegations are based upon data published by the CFTC and CME Group, I would ask you to put that aside and consider that I may have beThursday, February 15, 2018 |

| THE Week. THE Record. THE Extreme Sign for Gold |
| To say that gold’s weekly volume was big is like to say that snails are not the fastest animal. You can't say that it’s a lie, but it doesn't really convey the entire truth, either. Gold’s weekly volume was highest EVER. Yes, ever. There was not a single week – not ever during the 2011 top or when gold declined in 2008 – when gold moved on volume that was higher than what we saw last week.
Is this significant? You bet! The chart below provides details (charts courtesy of http://stockcharts.com).Monday, January 29, 2018 |

| Gold and Silver Manipulation on Full Display, Again |
| India is reporting a massive increase in her physical gold imports – an increase of 53% is being reported by MMTC-PAMP India President (Marketing) Vipin Raina. One would think this would drive the benchmark price of gold higher, but alias it is the paper derivatives market operated at the LBMA and COMEX “markets” that influence the benchmark more than anything. As Craig Hemke has pointed out the inverse dollar/yen trade is probably the number one influence of the gold benchmark. You can actuallTuesday, January 23, 2018 |

If it does come to fruition, I will gladly reveal my associate’s identity to give him his proper due; but in case it doesn’t, I’ll spare him any embarrassment for an incorrect premise.

| EXAMINING SILVER MANIPULATION: What Some Analysts Miss |
| One of the major topics discussed in the precious metals community is the manipulation of the gold and silver prices by the large bullion banks. Many precious metals analysts point to the massive commercial short positions held by JP Morgan and Scotiabank as the root cause for the low silver price. While I agree that the bullion banks’ massive short contracts are controlling the silver price to a certain degree, there’s another factor that is overlooked by the majority of precious metals analySunday, November 26, 2017 |

| Life Under Manipulation |
| We as individuals have little or no control over the state of markets, all we can do is adapt to market realities. In the case of silver, the reality is that it is in the grip of a price manipulation. History shows that various world governments have often artificially set the price of silver and gold in connection with official monetary policies. However, for the past 35 years a specific type of price manipulation has existed in silver via futures contract positioning on the Commodities ExchangSaturday, November 25, 2017 |

| The Key Test Ahead |
| Before getting into the subject of today’s title, allow me to update a couple of topics previously discussed. Last Wednesday, I offered a review of world silver inventories in which I concluded that there were roughly one billion oz in fully documented inventories of metal in industry standard 1000 oz bars and perhaps another 500 million to one billion additional oz in unverified holdings; making a grand total of 1.5 to 2 billion oz for world silver inventories in, essentially, the only form thaFriday, August 4, 2017 |

| Fine Gold versus F.I.N.E. Central Banks - Gary Christenson |
| Gold is one of nature’s finest creations.
On the other hand, central banks create trillions of fiat currency
units – dollars, euros, yen, quataloos, whatever – from nothing and use
those currency units for purchases … Apple stock, salaries for a
thousand Ph.D. economists, office buildings, lobbyists, politicians,

| Surprise CFTC Gold/Silver Manipulation Announcement: Ted Butler |
| I was shocked by Friday’s announcement by the CFTC of an order and simultaneous settlement of manipulation charges in COMEX gold and silver futures. I first saw it in a Zerohedge article and subsequent articles on Bloomberg and in the Wall Street Journal, but all those accounts were somewhat off target compared to the CFTC announcement itself. This was one of those rare cases where the source announcement was much clearer than the articles describing it. I would ask you to take the time to read Tuesday, June 6, 2017 |

These changes have unquestionably begun in “second” and “third world” nations with undversified economies, unstable political regimes; and of course, fiat currencies that can’t be abused – like the dollar, EuroTuesday, June 6, 2017 |
