Major Production Declines From The Top Two Primary Silver Mining Companies

July 22, 2019

As the silver price continues to break out of its lows, two of the top primary mining companies are experiencing major production declines in the first half of the year. Mexico’s Fresnillo PLC and Peru’s Buenaventura’s top primary silver mines saw a significant decrease in production due to either falling ore grades, decreased volumes of processed ore, poor weather, or labor strikes.

Silver Market Update: outlook for silver is excellent

July 22, 2019

Some weeks back we had correctly surmised that gold’s gathering strength would rub off on silver and cause it to start catching up, so we bought a range of silver ETFs and stocks, a move which has paid off well as they have spiked quite dramatically in the recent past. Starting with silver’s 10-year chart, we can see that its presumed giant Double Bottom is starting to look more and more like the genuine article, with the price starting to advance away from the 2nd low of the pattern.

Wrong Whale

July 15, 2019

The 4 big concentrated silver longs, which I have been writing about for nearly a month, further reduced their net long position by 3882 contracts to 62,707 contracts. The only reporting category to have liquidated enough (or any real) number of contracts in the reporting week were managed money traders, proving conclusively that managed money traders held a significant percentage of the very strange concentrated net long position in COMEX silver. How else could I have expected managed money…

Deliberately Looking Away

July 11, 2019

The two developments in focus include a broad artificial pricing scheme, or manipulation, affecting a wide swath of commodity markets and a more specific price manipulation involving JPMorgan in silver and gold. The illegal pricing schemes did not evolve overnight, but over a multi-decade period of time.
