SLV rose into the close, albeit slightly. Looks like it is rising modestly again in after hours trading.

$70 might be the new floor. We shall see what happens this next week with China's restrictions. Where are LBMA and COMEX going to get all the silver they need?

maybe they can dig for it themselves while wearing ankle bracelets.
watching the overseas open? I've been waiting for it. silver up a dollar+ in the first half hour.
so it looks like the margin hikes & overnight repo pumps & the kitchen sink are being thrown at silver to keep the price down. at the end of the day, they still can't print silver. the clock is ticking.

The price of silver in China is up $2 to $73 as I write this.

In the overnight market, the SLV etf is up ~2.5%.

I don't expect to see any major changes today or this weekend - holiday hangover.

Banksters did an excellent job keeping silver under $75 last night. Lets see how well they do when China opens back up Sunday night. Any truth to the numbers coming out of Japan $130oz and South Korea $97oz?

Multiple sources on YouTube. International Stacker mentioned it and he has been pretty good vetting things.

I'm seeing the same higher numbers everywhere but USA.
bankers need a taste of their own medicine. i'll bet they probably wouldn't like having their funding cut.

I'm seeing the same higher numbers everywhere but USA. Seeing the same, starting with Shanghai being higher last week. Now Japan and others. It appears the US spot price has disconnected from the rest of the worlds spot price. Not only that, but also the US paper silver price also has a spread well below physical silver. Something seriously wrong. Quote:

The problem now is that the "too big to fail" Banksters (AKA Gangsters) are reportedly receiving "stealth bail outs" from the Feds, totaling in the hundreds of billions of dollars, to save them from bankruptcy.. This is being done quietly and in the form of huge cash infusions, one I saw was allegedly on Dec. 31st for 75 billion. The last 2 cash infusions allegedly happened in conjunction with the last 2 margin call increases on silver. I saw a graph showing how many times the Feds have injected billions in cash to the banks over the past few years. There were practically none in the past couple of years. Until you looked at the latter half of 2025. Then you see a spike with dozens of these transactions. No doubt all of it is related to the run up in silver. The banks / shorts are trapped, and getting crushed by this squeeze. So yeah they appear to be throwing everything plus the kitchen sink at it. |

So if silver is higher everywhere else then won't those countries just buy all the silver they can get from this country where it's cheaper. Causing an even bigger problem for all the short positions.

is there anything left for them to buy? if the big vaults are emptying/empty, what's available? if overseas retail starts buying from USA, that would be noticed somewhere. I'm sure we'd hear about from certain sources, but supposing that happened, wouldn't that quickly drain retail outlets here? inventories might be dwindling, or low, but not depleted... not yet, anyway. in USA, retail has not yet caught on. maybe it's just starting to, maybe not. what troubles me is the big push to get retail going. the bankers are aware of everything that we are aware of-- and they're in possession of things we don't know, always five steps ahead-- so it stands to reason that they are aware of retail not in the game yet. are they pushing the entire game until it finally just shatters? what are they going to foist upon us when that eventuality comes to pass?

Causing an even bigger problem for all the short positions. After the CME finds that hiking margin rates isn't working anymore, they can further change the rules of futures contracts to force cash settlement as the only option. Once delivery is no longer required, there is no mechanism for the silver price to be squeezed because of fails to deliver physical. That is the next move. It won't matter that all physical silver sold heads to China to be made into solar panels, EV batteries and AI data center components, because that's where they are all manufactured anyway. They have the ability to pay the most for silver and they have the highest and best use for the material. If China chooses to be petulant like we are here, they can say that they are no longer willing to buy silver from the U.S. because we finance genocide and refuse to sell us critical components for weapons, solar panels, EVs or components critical for AI data centers for the same reason. Then what? One thing we learned in 2025 is that China doesn't need to sell in the U.S. to grow their economy 2.5x faster than ours. China supplies the whole world. The U.S. cannot supply our own domestic economy.
