  12. Looks like the Rothschilds used to be seated on the London Gold Exchange............... and sold their position to the UN/IMF (unconfirmed but what I am initially reading)......

    This is not a small deal..... something is up here. Let's dig up some information..... I will link when I find a good source of information.

    The fact that few of us know what this is means it is very important..... imo

  14. SGS maybe do an article on recent gold silver margin increases. Lots of confusion about why these are happening, people assume it happens as the price goes up, and now get mindfucked when there are margin increases on the down.

  15. They are referring to the weekly options.

  16. oh we're talking about speciall added options expirations. I always thought those interim added options expirations were garbage since they were added in 08. yeah there's too much risk there for market makers, so they took it off the table and BROKE CONTRACT LAW

  17. All I can say is between 1974 - 1976 we had similar moves, albeit over a 2 year span, not a 3 day span! Is the time span that makes this absurd!

  23. Maybe this is the beginning of the paper/digital gold/silver collapse?? Fingers crossed!!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. dude I have no idea, but I think we have reached a level of support here in price, based on the trading activity. A good thing for silver holders is that "premiums over spot on physical" such as eagles and maples actually increased as the spot price went down. If it holds above 27 for a few days, it might stabilize

  25. GLD Ponzi Scheme going down soon?????????

    http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14996.html

    These revelations should provide a “new filter” through which Rothschild exiting the gold market back in 2004 begins to make a little more sense:

    “LONDON, April 14, 2004 (Reuters) - NM Rothschild & Sons Ltd., the London-based unit of investment bank Rothschild [ROT.UL], will withdraw from trading commodities, including gold, in London as it reviews its operations, it said on Wednesday.”

    Interestingly, GATA’s Bill Murphy speculated about this back in 2004;

    “Why is Rothschild leaving the gold business at this time my colleagues and I conjectured today? Just a guess on my part, but suspect:”

    *SOMETHING IS AMISS. THEY KNOW A BIG GOLD SCANDAL IS COMING AND THEY WANT NO PART OF IT. …”

    “ROTHSCHILD WANTS OUT BEFORE THE PROVERBIAL "S" HITS THE FAN.” BILL MURPHY, LEMETROPOLE, 4-18-2004

    Coincidentally [or perhaps, not?], GLD Began Trading 11/12/2004

    In light of what has occurred – regarding the Gold ETF, GLD – after reviewing their prospectus yet again, it becomes pretty clear that GLD was established to purposefully deflect investment dollars away from legitimate gold pursuits and to create a stealth, cesspool / catch-all, slush-fund and a likely destination for many of these “salted tungsten bars” where they would never see the light of day – hidden behind the following legalese “shield” from the law:

  26. Yeah I just noticed the same thing, lets hope silver finds support here for while, then starts the slow slog back up the hill. What a fucked up few days these have been, just imagine when things start to get really interesting!!

  31. Don't sound the trumpets of relief just yet guys ... from a technical standpoint, (since fundamentals be fuckin' damned), the charts are looking like an In-Neck or On-Neck bearish continuation pattern is forming...let's hope that she pushes through and creates a piercing pattern.. but there may be more downside yet. Just stay hedged in all this turbulence. The most important lesson I've learned (and am still learning) in trading is that ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. Thus .. even the most prescient preconceptions of what should happen can lead you astray.. objective is to make money. And why make money? Why to subsidize phyz stackage of course.

  32. By purposefully blocking OTM SLV strikes, does that not prevent us commonfolk from profiting on the continuing decline silver may see over the next few days/weeks to this 12-14 area that some say is crucial for JPM to exit their shorts? Considering that most people who would be doing this would be turning their profits into physical purchases it makes sense that they'd want to prevent anyone from doing so?

    You can simply buy OCT or DEC ITM or OTM puts on SLV and SLW if you want to capture any downside move .. I use ThinkorSwim and there is plenty to choose from .. not everything is a conspiracy theory .. and I'm not accusing you of such, just stating that fact.

    In fact .. there's a near 40k OI on the 37 OCT put... yikes.

    Was on the phone with Northwest Territorial Mint when they opened at 8am CT this morning. According to the rep, I was #2 and there was already a 45 minute wait. He said demand was MASSIVE! Consider that's 6am for those on the West Coast where many wouldn't even be up yet.

  43. A subscriber sent me a link to the London Gold Exchange which closed their doors PERMANENTLY today. Here's the link:

    www.londongoldexchange.com

    At first I thought they might be related to the London Metal Exchange but they are not. Just similar names. Here's the description of the London Gold Exchange from Wikipedia:

    "London Gold Exchange is a digital currency exchanger founded in 2001. The London Gold Exchange is owned by LGE International LTD., an offshore company registered in Belize, with offices in London, England and Hong Kong. London Gold Exchange operate 2 franchises, one in the UK and one 'International' which covers everywhere other than the UK. The UK administration office in Central London, with staff based in locations around the UK. The International administration office is in Hong Kong, with staff also operating from mainland China. Technical staff also operate from locations in Australia."

    Yes. This was a DIGITAL gold exchange playing in the gold DERIVATIVE markets. From other articles the London Gold Exchange claimed to be the LARGEST e-gold exchange in the world.

    Hmmm...

    This surely can't be good news for their customers or the COUNTER PARTIES on the other end of these paper/electronic gold derivative transactions. The ripple effect of an implosion of gold and silver derivatives will set off the long awaited "Weapon of Mass Financial Destruction". I doubt this will be big enough to start the crash but it is definitely a sign of things to come.

    Then again, there is not much difference between an e-DIGITAL market and the COMEX market as both are just electronic derivatives of gold and silver. It's possible that September will be the largest volume month for COMEX silver in history... meaning north of 3,000,000 contracts traded representing over 15 Billion Ounces of SILVER! To add some context there's only about 30M ounces of physical silver available for delivery in the COMEX warehouses which represents a 500-1 ratio of paper trades against physical silver available for delivery in the month...and this is how the price is set for physical commodities in this age of paper Ponzi Schemes.

    I know it is difficult to ride out these slams but this IS the end game so...

    STAND STRONG!!!

    Obviously, it looks like we are going to have to EARN the future rewards on our physical gold and silver investment once again. So be it!

    We saw it coming long ago and IF you survive another few months with your METAL IN HAND then you will be one of the ONLY investors in the world to have preserved their wealth after the CRASH.

    Keep and eye out for the END of the THIRD quarter as there should be MANY surprises in OCTOBER.

    For those of you sweating this one just pop this in your mouth!

  45. SILVER EAGLE SALES

    I normally check the gold and silver eagle sales at the US MINT every few days. Up until about WED of last week the total silver eagle sales were 1,400,000. When they did update the figures from Monday to Wednesday they only increased about 70,000. This weekend I checked and they moved up substancially to 2.3 million or an increase of 900,000 in just a few days.

    Furthermore, I look forward to see what the SLV silver inventory will be today. Check out the following:

    MAY 2 = 354 million
    May 4 = 334 million (drop of 20 million oz)

    This is when silver got taken down from $48-$39 in 2 days.

    SEPT 21 = 317 million
    SEPT 23 = 317 million

    Last week we had another $9 move in 2 days but NO REDUCTION IN SLV INVENTORY???

    Anyhow....the world financial markets are imploding and I watched that trader on BBC that ZeroHedge mentioned. He says the markets are going to implode and everyone is getting into 30 year Treasuries and dollars....LOLOL.

    That's the SAFEHAVEN??

    What a night aye?

  53. I have to say....I don't know any of you on the blog personally, but its nice to know there are like minded people in a sea of sheep.

    It looks like we are indeed at the end game with this Fiat Currency-Fractional Reserve-Compound Interest System. This ponzi scheme was allowed to go on for quite along time due to the fact the global oil supply could grow with it.

    Well that is now over. For those who don't believe in PEAK OIL...there is nothing I can say to convince except to say just stay alive for a few more years and it will become apparent.

    The peaking of OIL and the Falling EROI -energy returned on invested is destroying the current Fiat Monetary System.

    If we do have a severe collapse by 2012....GLOBAL SILVER PRODUCTION will peak and that will be the end of it. We will probably see at least a 20-30% decline in global silver production by 2014-15....maybe even more.

    Even after this huge takedown....this will be the cheapest silver one can obtain.

    Happy trading

  59. With money going into Treasuries, I wonder if China is selling their Trillion dollar worth of Treausry notes and bonds. If they don't reduce their holding now, I am not sure they will ever have any chance in doing so. Several Chinese economic analysts had repeatly calling for the reduction of US dollar and Treaury holding. In fact, Chinese gov official had verbally attacked the US dollar being a reserve currency. Now, with US treasury being an hot item and precise metals and other metals are beaten down. If I were the Chinese official, I would reduce the treasury and buy precise metals, industrial commodity and oil. This would align with what they had been saying all along.

  60. @SRS Rocco

    Have you entertained the theory that while we may be at a Peak Oil situation, the presumption that fossils decomposition is the source for oil, or whatever crap they spew these days? Doesn't it make more sense that the supply/origination of oil has been distorted to create a supply and demand market, one in which they can control and use to their benefit in a multitude of ways.

    Regardless, I think the whole energy industry is bullshit as it is. Just the same as the medicine industry... any type of innovation that could revolutionize the world and free the common man, would not be allowed to be released. Instead, we must live in their system of oppressing technology, full of IPADS and other useless shit, in which they can shape and learn the publics movements.....

  64. @SRSrocco:

    It would be interesting to see some analysis on how Peak Oil is driving the markets today. You get knuckleheads like The Weather Unit that aren't accounting for this major factor in the ceiling on global stock markets. It's a perfect storm as far as I see it: Peak Oil combined with Sovereign Debt, mixed in with a Monetary Crisis, and a dash of Bank Insolvency and we have an unmistakable recipe for disaster and socio-economic meltdown.

    Throw that in with declining ore quality globally, as commodities peak, and silver is a bad investment? Doubt it. Those in the know will keep stacking, and preferably on the cheap. I could care less if we are looking at blatant manipulation, because there will come a time when manipulation is either no longer possible, or meaningless as real purchasing power is relegated to true stores of value.

  66. Yousif....I have written blog pieces in different blogs on peak oil but no articles on websites. I have written an artile titled:

    "Peak Silver and Mining by a Falling EROI"

    http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14756.html

    You can find that article at the link above. I have spent a great deal of time reading many engineers and geologists on the OilDrum and in other sites.

    The world global supply of oil has hit a plateau over the past 5 years...even with record high prices. All 3 big oil companies proven reserves have declined substancially since 2000 in the USA and 2 of the 3 have dropped ZEROHEDGE if they will publish this sort of material.

    The world contracts from here.....Growth is dead, so owning gold and silver will be some of the best stores of wealth anyone can find. Treasuries and Bonds will implode due to the fact there will not be the availiable cheap energy to burn to produce stuff to back the Bonds and Treasuries of the world.

  67. somehow that last comment got butchered. What is missing is this. I am working on a new PEAK SILVER UPDATE that will be published on SGS website, Market Oracle, Goldseek, Silver Seek, hopefully Financial Sense and I got my fingers crossed that ZEROHEDGE might publish it as well.

    I have another article that explains the collapse of the US Empire and world econmies by a falling EROI.

    Please do yourself a favor and just stop, nobody here cares. Believe it or not, people are discussing real things here and don't care about your website. That is why the discussion isn't happening on your website.

    Just had to mention it. Go home troll/immature attention seeker.... there are bigger problems going on in the world than driving traffic to your website and creating fear.

  69. @ Scott J,

    On face value there could be something to your argument about the origination of oil. However, the only other viable option to the prevailing theory of fossilized algae cooked under the pressure of miles of rock is abiogenic theory. However, this theory has many additional problems.

    If abiogenic oil is true then companies like Shell and Chevron, among others would not be dumping billions into the development of algae fuels. BP wouldn't be drilling under a mile of ocean, and offshore Brazilian reserves wouldn't even be newsworthy if Peak Oil wasn't the prevailing reality in global energy. They know about the reality of peak oil, and are gearing future investments into alternatives. If anything official estimates on global oil reserves are inflated. Big oil is at the mercy of supply and demand, and they know it.

    NATO wouldn't have been so jumpy with their trigger finger when it comes to Lybia if this weren't the case, and the US wouldn't have taken such imperialistic foreign policy stances in the Middle East if the production and transport of fossil fuel wasn't such a dire situation, and so necessary to keep the American machine running. Once the iron-clad realities of Peak Oil hit the game is over, because there is no viable alternative that can replace the economic production capacities of cheap, easy oil.

  70. Looks like we are holding at $1600 and $30 for the last few hours. If this keeps up, then we may have put in at least a temporary base/hit the elevator shafts floor!

    And interesting Jedpaschall, I just find it hard to believe these things as truth in such an age of deceit. Guess we will find out soon enough.

  72. If China is dumping treasuries that would be extremely bad news for the dollar. What if one day they announce, "We no longer hold trillions of dollars of T-bills and are now going to back the Remninbi with gold." That would be the economic version of Pearl Harbor.

  75. If I were China I'd be really pissed right now.

    I'd be pissed that the US is running up excessive debt levels and spinning it all as business as usual.

    I'd be pissed that the western central banks are printing from heaven to earth trying to bail out the same speculators who lost on the housing bubble, who have again lost on the greek/euro carry-trade fiasco.

    I'd be pissed that just two years ago these same clowns were accusing China of being the bad guy for currency manipulation.

    I'd be pissed that these clowns are now accusing China of hoarding rare earth and precious metals, instead of choking on yet another trillion in western paper.

    I'd be pissed when someone like Timmy has the gall to land in China and smugly say their investments in treasuries are 'safe'.

    I'd be pissed when Ben openly admits they are going to distort the treasury markets and thereby alter investment scenarios for foreign holders of that same debt.

    I'm no fan of the Chinese for any number of reasons. I'm just saying I'd understand why they're pissed.

    Paper Tiger, meet Paper Eagle.

    Orders 9.30-5 Only
    Due to the current volatile markets and an extremely high number of orders we will only accept new orders between 9.30 am and 5 pm until further notice. We have done this so that we can maintain our usual high level of service.

    First they say not taking orders over the weekend, now only taking orders while there's someone in the office ready to press the panic button and shut down the whole site next time there's a 15% intraday fuckjob. That's the next stage for all this - dealers refusing to take orders for extended periods of time. It's coming, surely.

  79. Taking off as we head to the end of 4 PM trading. Well, WU, let me be the 1st to rub it in on you- today, your gloom and doom FAILS.

  80. Thorfinnr, I highly doubt WU cares whether he is right or wrong. For him, it seems the only thing that matters is frequency. It's kind of like Paris Hilton, she doesn't care if you see her sucking cock in a porn video or at one of those gay ass hollywood award shows that the sheep can't get enough of, as long as you see her. That's what her make up is, as is that of the Weather Douche.

  81. apparently, london gold exchange neither traded gold, nor is located in london... thus is irrelevant.

    zerohedge for more.

  82. Offtopic but SVM's afternoon stiffy just poked me in the side.

    watching that $7 put volume shows me the shorts are still holding strong tho.

  83. Perfect On-Neck formation as suggested earlier. This is typically a bearish continuation pattern so hedge up before the close if you have any losing paper positions.

    Exactly...so why is it on a big HEADLINE ON THIS SITE? Is somebody being objective or simply trying to scare you with disinformation?? I am all pro commodities...but you cant write that kind of nonsense...

  85. How is the london gold exchange not being in London anymore make this story not relevant. You do realize at one point it was a predominate player in London....And you do realize that someone in Hong Kong had to buy this from the owners of the London exchange..... connect the dots friends.

    This is far from a non-event, your scope of the situation is just not wide enough.... I am not saying I know what is exactly going on, but I can tell you this is not a small event. You think that this going bust during the paper implosion and the start of the great physical race and currency bonanza is not a big deal? What is a big deal then... I would like to know.

  86. "On face value there could be something to your argument about the origination of oil. However, the only other viable option to the prevailing theory of fossilized algae cooked under the pressure of miles of rock is abiogenic theory."

    Aboiotic oil MAY WELL BE TRUE, BUT SIMPLY DOESN'T MATTER.

    I wrote a bunch of posts on LATOC about this in the past. Abiotic people often have their head in the sand, just like those that promote a cold fusion style dues ex machina solution.

    Fact of the matter is that depleted fields are staying depleted from a production perspective. If we found out that abiotic fields can 100% refill a field like a big self charging batter of a million years does it really matter? We emptied the world supply at a rate that looks almost exponential when charted. The Abiotic refill process looks nothing like this, so it's simply not going to help.

    If it was 10,000 times faster, and refilled ghawar in 100 years, at todays extraction rates were capped, we would still not have it filling fast enough to make it sustainable.

    So, it really doesn't matter if aboitic oil is fact or not as depeted fields from the first half of the century are not coming back to life.

  87. I don't get this story? To me it looks like an over leveraged bucketshop?

    Don't let the name fool you. I once nearly traded with Saxobank, until I found out they used the name bank, but had no banking licence (in 2007 anyway). What in a name?

  89. @ Fourth,

    Aboiotic oil MAY WELL BE TRUE, BUT SIMPLY DOESN'T MATTER.

    Good point. In which case the peak oil models are still in play. But, what I don't understand is how abiotic proponents deal with organic fuel sources, especially the up and coming algae fuels that have similar ester structure to crude oil. Anyway, probably is of little consequence to the current discussion.

    I came across the peak oil movement long before I got into PM's, and frankly PM's have been the 'silver lining' to the brewing macroeconomic disaster on the horizon over energy.
