I see $80.40 on the CME front contract. I see another margin hike incoming.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

It's getting harder for the banksters to do major smack downs. Even the margin requirement changes are only having a temporary affect now.

overnight repos, too. again, banks & govts have seemingly infinite ways to manipulate the spot price. they are keeping it where they want it and will continue to do so to their own maximum benefit.
their manipulations may not be having the same effect, but they do still have an effect. will we ever see $90 silver? I don't know. no one else does, either... unless you're a banker at the big banks. spot silver should already be in triple digits like it seems to be everywhere else. based on what we've been seeing, I presume a kill switch will be activated once silver hits a certain level and it'll trigger a sell-off or a paper dump or another overnight repo or any one of a multitude of things to drive the spot price down again, so that we can sit and watch silver inch it's way back up over numerous weeks. the bankers will allow $90 silver when they're ready for it. the markets are only as free as the bankers allow them to be.

Overnight repos are normal for banks around the end of a quarter and especially at the end of the year. I don't think that is holding silver back - a social media falsehood that continues to be echoed.
Now short selling and increasing margin levels, yes this can be used to "control" market pricing. Why is this time different, because industrial users need the silver not a cash settlement.

Silver seems to have dropped in the overnight market to $80.48.

 Silver had a phenomenal day today. It was amazing to watch. When silver hit the intraday high I saw paper traders selling (profit taking) but despite that dip, silver held and bounced back up into the close. Silver finished so strong today that I believe the only thing that kept it from hitting $90 today was the closing bell. Like the referee ending the fight. And even after the bell it continued going up into the extended hours trading and even made a new high in the overnight. But now there's a big red candle on the chart tonight that tanked the price nearly $3 in an hour. So I wouldn't be surprised to hear tomorrow there was another margin hike on silver. Something interesting I heard tonight; if you own silver or even gold right now it's almost statistically impossible that you aren't in the Green, in the profit. Congratulations
