That remains the problem. Over 900 million paper contracts dumped today so far. Apparently these have been rolled into the March contracts, kicking the can down the road and putting off the official short squeeze till 2026. But this is a problem with no solution for the shorts. That game has been badly exposed.Where is the metal for the paper?
That seems to be the problem.
Despite the fact that silver has now broken the $64 barrier -- and the silver well in London is running close to empty...with very elevated lease rates...the gold/silver ratio remains at a farcical 69.5 to 1 as of the Friday's close. The 'normal' and historical ratio is around 15 to 1...which would put silver at about $286. And if priced at the ratio of 7:1 that it comes out of the ground at, compared to gold...that would put silver at around $614 an ounce. So a triple-digit silver price is in our future -- and all that remains to be resolved is what that number will be -- and how soon 'da boyz' allow it to happen.
What occurred ? !Bad news for Bank of America

Woops.I read the long article posted bt @PlunkettsGhost and learned B of A is short, JBM are long.
It said there are 7 other big shorts but did not name them and might be overseas
400 million shortfall .per annum. I stand to be corrected.One billion ounces according to the article.
Annual production I think is a little less than a billion ounces!!!!!
The “line ups” are not in futures.They’re in PHYSICAL silver.This move is driven by inelastic global physical demand, not paper speculation.Margin hikes can cool leverage.They can’t create silver that doesn’t exist.That’s why this rally is different.Not a paper spike.A structural repricing.
Is the xrp bubble bust?
Probably. I had a small punt on it.Is the xrp bubble bust?
