Early this yea, high premiums developed for Comex bars in the U.S. thanks to fears of tariffs on importing silver (and gold). In response traders shipped an estimated 300 tons of silver from London to New York to alleviate that squeeze.

I opened this year's New Orleans Conference by asking the assembled crowd a direct question: "How does it feel to be right?"
As I then explained, gold's historic bull market was proving us correct in every one of our long-held, often-disparaged views.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
While monetary metals prices stand near record levels, their recent smashdowns in the futures markets show that the struggle against market manipulation isn't over. We're gaining but we haven't yet won.

For weeks, 67-year-old Le Thi Minh Tam has been scouring Hanoi for gold to give her son at his upcoming wedding, battling long queues outside shops whose stock sells out fast.
"I'm getting worried, as I still don't have enough," Tam says with a sigh. "They don't sell gold bars anymore, only gold rings with a very limited amount for each customer."
