Happy New Year to you as well. I have appreciated your dedication to the mission of informing people about the dangers of the current worldwide credit/debt bubble and hope they are taking steps to protect themselves. I know I am.

We are witnessing the end of naked trading on commodities, which is only possible when the majority of futures traders accept cash in settlement rather than physical. Rumor has it that the CME action was in defense of a major institutional investor who could not make physical settlement on a large silver contract. Expect many more such shenanigans by government, via the major banks and investment houses as they continue to lose control of the game.

Happy Precious New Year to you too. The Monday bashing was a bit scary something similar to October 25.

Thanks for your guidance and insights all thru 2025.

of course industrial users do not want to get in a Silver bidding war, they want price suppression. I suspect China has a lot of idle dollars they want to use, and dont care if the price in dollars escalates? Would the US crash the (global) economy to get REE prices down? Can they even do that? As the price drops the IND users buy more. I once predicted that gold would be $800 and there would be none to buy.
