inventory at APMEX is now below 12,000 ounces, a number I've NEVER recorded.
On top of that, over 75% of it is BACKORDERED, meaning they don't even have it yet. Anyone up for a possible

Yesterday's tracked

Seriously, what’s Europe’s game plan now?
If they pay up, the ruble soars, Europe looks weak,
#gold
price soars w/ exchange rate & euro tanks?
If they don’t pay, it’s lights out (among many consequences) & Europe’s plunged into darkness in more ways than one.
What’ll they do?
Over two years ago I was reporting
#silversqueeze
numbers to a few hundred followers. If you’d told me I’d be at 20K today, I wouldn’t have believed it.
Thank you all for your continued support & trust in what I do. There are VERY exciting things coming this year - stay tuned!

sales at APMEX have accelerated at a pace I haven't measured before. The 20-day moving average has exploded to numbers not seen since early Fall when prices were much lower. I suspect this number will reach a new high very soon.

In just one hour at APMEX, I tracked
#silver
sales equal to 91% of an average ENTIRE Sunday and
#gold
sales equal to 96%.
These numbers are staggering!

If there's a
@WallStreetSilv
-planned
#SilverRaid
for Oct. 1st, now would be a good time to do it.
APMEX inventory going into this weekend is the lowest it's been in 2022. I believe other retailers are similarly stocked, so now would be the time to do more damage.

COMEX SILVER VAULTS AGAIN AT LOWEST LEVEL SINCE AUGUST 31, 2020 AS JP MORGAN TRANSFERS ANOTHER 4.98 MILLION OUNCES TO REGISTERED CATEGORY
SINCE FEBRUARY 25, JP MORGAN HAS TRANSFERRED OVER 11.5 MILLION OUNCES OF SILVER FROM ELIGIBLE TO REGISTERED
Something to ponder:
If the US Government owned every single ounce of
#gold
that has ever been mined in human history, at today's prices it wouldn't even cover half of the current national debt.
As of 8pm, APMEX has just 514

#GOLD
IS CONTINUING TO FLY OFF THE COMEX LIKE NEVER BEFORE
The 100-day and 200-day average rates of gold withdrawal have NEVER been as high as they are now and they are continuing to increase.
How much
#silver
is being drained from Comex & LBMA vaults? Here's a chart detailing the monthly changes in their combined holdings.
Notice that in 2021, shortly after Silver Squeeze began, there was a huge pattern shift. Still think
#silversqueeze
hasn't made a difference?
Yesterday was the second highest Wednesday I've recorded for estimated
#silver
sales at APMEX.
The previous second high was during the LME nickel fiasco, and the highest was a few weeks ago during the height of the (first?) banking crisis.

The question should not be "Are precious metals markets rigged?"
The real question should be "How much longer can precious metals markets be rigged until the supply and demand side overwhelms the rigging?"
