When gold punches through $5000 and proceeds directly to $5500 in less than 72 hours, you know something is very, very wrong out there.

THE SILVER MARKET IS BEING HEAVILY MANIPULATED RIGHT NOW.

Silver is trading at two completely different prices at the same time.

In the US (COMEX), silver is around $92. In Shanghai, physical silver is around $130. That's a 40%+ premium in Shanghai.

Same metal. Two prices. And this gap is exactly what manipulation looks like.

Here's why:

1. COMEX IS MOSTLY A PAPER MARKET

In the US, silver trading is dominated by paper contracts. Most of the volume is not real silver moving around. It's contracts being bought and sold. And the paper to physical ratio is estimated around 350:1. That means for every 1 real ounce, there can be hundreds of paper claims.

So when big players dump paper contracts, the price drops even if physical silver is still tight. No actual silver needs to be sold.

They just sell paper and push the price down.

2) SMM AND SHANGHAI REFLECT REAL PHYSICAL DEMAND

SMM prices reflect actual physical transactions inside China. Silver holding around $120 there already shows stress. Shanghai spot prices near $130 show something even clearer: buyers are paying up because they need physical silver now.

These premiums appear when supply is tight, delivery matters, contracts are not enough. Shanghai is not pricing paper leverage. It is pricing availability.

Where paper dominates, silver prices are suppressed. Where physical demand dominates, silver trades much higher.

COMEX shows a paper price. SMM and Shanghai show the physical price.

The gap between them is proof that silver prices are being heavily influenced by paper trading, while the real market is already clearing much higher.

Very likely that the Warsh announcement was an emergency measure to stop the dollar's slide. Meanwhile….

That's a pretty darn good guess. Warsh is a deep state minion tied to City of London banking.

Moreover, it was reported that JPM and HSBC managed to close out short positions at $78, the very bottom of the plunge before silver closed up in the eighties.

Yep, drive it down and then rake it in....right?
I understand they will run out of time. Do you have any insight on this?

Sounded like more of a bailout to me, albeit not in the usual sense.

Yes, bailing themselves out of their obligation

JP Morgan selling paper silver in a panic and driving price down. That Shanghai price of $120 is close to the real physical silver price.

And the metals are already roaring back….owning physical is paramount but the real big time money is going to be made on the junior miners, many of whom are still dirt cheap, if not for long. The CDNX index is completing a massive multi-year reverse head-and-shoulder pattern…..might go to the moon before the Artemis mission does.
