Gold Backwardation Seen by SocGen Prompting ‘Corrective Rally’
Physical gold demand is strong and “nearby tightness” will persist for the “foreseeable future,” Robin Bhar, a London-based metals analyst, said in a report e-mailed today. Gold will average $1,150 an ounce in 2014, according to the bank, which predicted the rout in April when prices entered a bear market, having fallen 20 percent from the high last year.

How to beat a GOLD SHORTAGE
By Miguel Perez-Santalla
Over the last few years, during the great investment demand for gold and silver, we have seen sporadic shortages in bullion coins.
Many people have written about these shortages as a harbinger of things to come in precious metals more widely. One of the fads is to decry supply issues in silver and now recently gold. However, the truth of the matter is less dramatic, if not quite so simple.
In most cases, supply issues with silver or gold coins are caused by abnormal or let's say surprising increases in demand from bullion coin buyers. Simply put, coins don't come out of thin air. They need to be manufactured. This all takes time and money. No one wants to tie up their money in a product that is not going to sell. That exposes gold and silver buyers to "just in time" inventory gaps if it's coins they want to buy.

Silver & Gold : There is some dislocation in the Physical Market
The metal's second consecutive daily gain was sparked by data showing China's annual consumer inflation accelerated more than expected in June.
Signs of tightness in gold forward market also boosted investor sentiment.
News that the 1-month and 3-month Gold Forward Offered Rates (GOFO), rates at which bullion banks are prepared to lend gold on a swap against U.S. dollars, fell for the first time in years underpinned gold prices.
"Clearly there is some dislocation in the physical market and maybe because demand has been surprisingly strong that has caused some temporary shortages," said Societe Generale analyst Robin Bhar, adding that there has been a lot of gold borrowing in the last 24 hours.

The metal's second consecutive daily gain was sparked by data showing China's annual consumer inflation accelerated more than expected in June. Signs of tightness in gold forward market also boosted investor sentiment.

Physical Demand And Silver-To-Gold Ratio Signal Strong Rally In Silver Prices
Silver prices have slumped to deeper lows in June 2013 after having been smashed big time earlier in April. Technical indicators suggest an extremely oversold condition and that a rise seems imminent. On a weekly basis, RSI (relative strength indicator) is at the lowest in 40 years of data and nearly that low on a daily basis. This timing indicator suggests that silver is extremely oversold on both a daily and weekly basis. Gold is similarly oversold. Technically, a rally in gold and silver prices is
Take a look at a recent statement by GATA: Market-rigging central banks laugh at technical analysis and 'fundamentals'
GATA said: "Technical analysis of a manipulated market like gold has been tedious nonsense for years, but these days, with virtually infinite paper dropped on the gold futures market at illiquid times to drive the price down even as the physical market remains strong, technical analysis has become insulting. The only analysis worth anything anymore is the identification of the source of all the paper. The suspects are obvious - Western central banks."
absolutely unavoidable. Then why have bullion seen a steep and steady decline in prices? Having said about Gold and Silver being in technically oversold conditions, market manipulation yet, will of course play its own part in defining price direction, even though for a small volatile period now.

SILVER : The New Law of Supply and Demand
Theodore Butler
|
July 5, 2013 - 9:10am
Facebook Twitter Forward Print
This was excerpted from the Weekly Review of June 29, 2013 -
The cornerstone of the free market system is the law of supply and demand. This is the premise that governs how the prices of resources are determined in any free market economy as opposed to prices being set by government edict or monopoly control. It is the mechanism by which resources are produced and consumed in the freest and most efficient manner. Here’s a great definition of this law from the Free Dictionary – “the theory that prices are determined by the interaction of supply and demand: an increase in supply will lower prices if not accompanied by increased demand, and an increase in demand will raise prices unless accompanied by increased supply.”
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/law+of+supply+and+demand
There are three components to the law – supply, demand and price. Price serves as the fulcrum between supply and demand, balancing the two. But the important point is that the interplay between supply and demand is what determines the price. That’s elementary and spelled out in the above definition; a free market price means the price is determined by supply and demand. This is the definition we expect our children learn in school. Unfortunately, this definition is old-fashioned and no longer operative in gold and silver and other commodities. Instead a new definition of the law of supply and demand has supplanted the version still in the dictionary.
Simply put, the new law of supply and demand has the price determining supply and demand and not vice-versa as it should be. This may sound like a game of words at first blush, but it goes to the heart of the matter. When price determines how much is produced and consumed, instead of supply and demand being the determinant of price, that’s just another way of describing price manipulation. All our laws against manipulation and the restraint of free trade are aimed at preventing an artificial price from coming into existence. That’s because it is well-known that an artificial price will adversely impact production and consumption and cause overall harm to society. An artificial high price must lead to over-production and under-consumption and an eventual price crash, while an artificial low price must result in an eventual shortage and price explosion.
There is undeniable proof that the recent price action on the COMEX in gold and silver is the new and manipulative version of the law and supply and demand. There was no big increase in production or weakening of demand for gold or silver leading to sharply lower prices; instead the price decline, due to speculative selling of futures contracts, is determining what will be produced and consumed in the future. Speculative selling on the COMEX has resulted in prices low enough to threaten mine production and encourage increased demand (especially investment demand).

Is It Time To Buy Silver?
The first part of this article introduced the demand for silver; this 2nd part will discuss the tendency of silver supply and reserves.
Mine Production
The total world silver mine production rose from 13,290 metric tons (427.3 million ounces) in 1986 to 24,000 metric tons (771.7 million ounces) in 2012, while the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) was 2.30%. At this point, the growth rate was greater than the world silver industrial demand growth rate, which was 1.56% in the same period.

Why Are Premiums On Physical Gold And Silver Rising Even As Futures Crash?
manipulation of the Paper Gold and Silver prices? Is it again due to the naked shorting by the usual suspects, trading desks, big banks and hedge funds? Has the physical market completely disconnected from the paper market? Right - Gold and Silver physical markets are facing a complete disconnect with the paper or the futures market only based upon the fact that these paper markets can be easily manipulated. These markets were initiated for achieving a better price discovery based on current fundamentals and prospective future demand and supply factors. But now have become a playground for the Big and Influential or more popularly known as TBTF. Much has already been spoken, written and debated upon the same and I would prefer not to get into those details again here. Whatever is the reason for the gold and silver price smash, what I wonder is, who in his right mind would prefer to pay a large premium for something that he would get at a much cheaper price in just some more time? - No, these investors just won't wait, but rather stand in long queues, pay premiums and confirm holding some Gold and Silver rather than await a more attractive price. Why? It's the shortage of supply in gold and silver and more bottlenecks in supply expected as the mining industry halts productions. Going ahead I'll explain the same.

Silver Demand: The Photovoltaic Industry
THE PHOTOVOLTAIC industry didn't start to show on charts, according to the CPM Group of New York, until the year 2000 when they consumed approximately 1,000,000 ounces, writes Miguel Perez-Santalla at BullionVault.
Essentially that is barely a blip on the silver consumption chart. In fact in comparison to the smallest of the large consumers at the time, which was electronics, it was not even a tenth of their consumption.
It was not expected that this industry would become an important player in the silver market for years to come. The facts at hand of the silver data prove this out. It was not until the year 2008 that the industry reached any volumes of importance having consumed nearly 19,000,000 ounces.
What happened in the global economy was that major subsidies were being given for the development and promulgation of solar energy by sovereign nations. Germany, at first the largest consumer, was then followed by many other European nations in this objective. But it was not until the USA began to offer subsidies that the silver consumption for these products became of major importance.
The photovoltaic industry in certain countries became very important sectors and so with the global economic crisis many were to suffer. Spain specifically suffered tremendous economic losses in this industry when the state pulled its subsidies. This has been a major concern for developers and businesses involved in solar power.

Is the Silver Price Finally Bottoming Out?
It caused quite a stir at the time. There was no shortage of people calling me delusional for suggesting the bull market in silver was overdue for a pause. Some even labeled me a "traitor," presumably to the "hard money" movement.
One of the silver companies I recommended to NOT buy immediately contacted me after the article was published, insisting there was nothing to worry about, and that their stock was a great investment.
For the record, since then, the price of silver is down 35.2% (based on the London PM fix). And of the four silver investments I said to avoid:
1. The iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is down 33.3%.
2. Large silver bars have obviously gone down commensurately with spot silver.
3. Shares in Silvercorp Metals (SVM) are down a WHOPPING 61.5%.
4. And shares in Coeur d'Alene (CDE) are off by 50.8%.
Not pretty.

How to Invest in Silver and Gold in 2013
Anyone thinking about how to invest in precious metals right now has been watching the plunging prices of gold and silver.
Both metals are firmly in bear market territory. By the end of last week, gold was down about 27% from its 52-week high of $1,803 and silver had cratered by a whopping 43%.
But the recent downward slide in the price of silver and gold has once again revealed to investors the most important fundamental fact about precious metals - they're incredibly volatile. Swings of 50% in value in a single year are not unheard of.
But the fact remains, there are a host of good reasons why you should know how to invest in precious metals and why they are important to a diversified portfolio.
Precious metals offer unique protection against inflation and insurance against financial or political disasters.

THE BANKSTERS ARE BUYING PHYSICAL SILVER BEHIND THE SCENE TOO!
HSBC has quietly moved into acquiring large amounts of silver bullion.. The bank has secured another deal to buy silver bars from KGHM which brings their total purchases of silver from KGHM alone in the last 12 months to $876 million or PLN 3.65 billion.. KGHM is one of the largest producers of silver in the world and is the second-largest producer of refined silver in the world.. They produce silver bars registered under the brand KGHM HG that are attested to by "Good Delivery" certificates issued by the London Bullion Market Association and the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre.. Listed metals producer KGHM signed an estimated PLN 1.67 billion deal on 2013 sales of silver to HSBC, KGHM said in a market filing yesterday.. The deal puts the total value of deals between KGHM and HSBC in the last 12 months to PLN 3.65 billion or $876 million, the filing read.. The Management Board of KGHM announced that on 21 January 2013 a contract was entered into between KGHM and HSBC Bank USA N.A., London Branch for silver sales in 2013.. The estimated value of the contract is PLN 1,672,260,469.66. As a result of entering into this contract, the total estimated value of contracts entered into between KGHM and HSBC Bank USA N.A., London Branch over the last 12 months exceeded 10% of the equity of the Company and amounts to PLN 3,654,120,061.59.. The highest-value contract signed during this period is the above-mentioned contract. The criteria used for describing the contract as significant is that the total estimated value of the contracts exceeds 10% of the equity of KGHM.. KGHM is one of the largest companies in Poland and one of the largest mining & metallurgy companies in the world.. The main customers of Polish silver in recent years have been the United Kingdom, Germany and Belgium. HSBC appears to be one of their main customers now.. Respected and erudite, James Steel, the chief commodity analyst at HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. continues to be bullish on silver and recently said how "silver tends to track gold, except it over performs in a bull market" and how he was "moderately bullish on silver" in 2013.. HSBC did not comment on the deal and it only came to light as KGHM is a listed company and had to report the deal which was then picked up in Polish media.. The massive deal could simply be HSBC securing supply for the NYSE listed ETFS Physical Silver as they are the custodian.. Or it could be that HSBC's senior banksters are concerned about securing supply as they expect robust investment demand to continue and possibly increase resulting in higher prices too...

Barclays : SILVER exhibited its weakest month in two years
Barclays Capital’s commodity strategists this morning predict more tough sailing for the price of gold. They’re just as bearish on silver.
From the note:
On silver:
On the industrial demand side, silver imports into China were the weak spot in April’s trade data and reaffirm our negative view on the metal. Imports were down 28% y/y at 172 tonnes, while exports were up 21.5% y/y at 85.7 tonnes, keeping China a net importer of the metal. Once again, the weakness in silver was across the board, from powder to jewellery; unwrought silver suffered the sharpest decline at 29% y/y, while powder imports were down 28% y/y. Given that investor appetite also remains soft, silver is set to remain significantly oversupplied.
A considerable amount of weakness stemmed from the ETP outflows, which had been relatively resilient compared with gold until May. While outflows were still weak for gold in May, silver exhibited its weakest month in two years with outflows tallying over 500 tonnes. May’s activity almost eliminates inflows for the year to date, but outflows over the past two months only make up 3% of total holdings. Silver coin sales, on the other hand, have been quite strong. The US Mint has reported sales exceeding 100 tonnes every month so far this year with June on track to surpass 100 tonnes

Unsustainable Silver Prices
First Quarter 2013 True All-In Cost Silver Industry Figures: Unsustainable Silver Prices
Over the last month we have been analyzing and posting the silver industry's true costs to mine each ounce of silver. We have analyzed all the major publicly traded primary silver producers, which includes close to 19 million ounces of mined production for Q1FY13 - a very large portion of the total worldwide production of silver (estimated at over 190 million for Q1FY13). We believe our numbers represent a large enough portion of mined production to extrapolate as a general figure across the industry.
Why These Costs Are Important
For silver ETF investors (SLV, SIVR, CEF, and PSLV) this metric is very important because it allows an inside understanding of the true costs associated with producing each new ounce of silver. This is arguably the most important metric in analyzing any commodity because it shows the price where production of that commodity becomes uneconomic. If it costs more to mine a commodity than the market is willing to pay for it, eventually producers will stop producing the commodity and close up shop. These are the type of environments that savvy commodity investors dream of because it allows them to purchase assets that cost more to produce than to buy, which is an environment that cannot last for very long because eventually supply will be lowered, cause scarcity, and then the price will increase.

India: Govt told to raise import duty on Gold
They made such a request arguing that duty hike on gold in India would spur smuggling of yellow to the southern neighbor at a time when the local market is facing shortage of gold.
India on Wednesday hiked gold import duty from 6 percent to 8 percent to curb its current account deficit.
“At a time when the domestic market is facing gold shortage, the recent duty hike in India might increase gold smuggling to India,” Mani Ratna Shakya, president of Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers´ Associations, told Republica. “Hence, we have requested the government to hike the duty as soon as possible.”
If customs duty on gold is raised in line with India, the yellow metal will be dearer in the domestic market by around Rs 1,000 per 10 grams. But traders have requested the government to increase the import duty by at least Rs 1,500 per 10 grams to prevent smuggling of gold to India.
“If the government does not raise duty immediately, the duty hike in India, which has made gold expensive there compared to the local market, will encourage smugglers to illegally export the yellow metal to India to get Indian currency which is selling at higher rates in black market,” Shakya added.

Silver investors need to keep faith - Rakhimov
Petaluma CA (The Gold Report) -
It's these times—volatile markets that shake you to your core—when you truly learn what kind of investor you are, says Sean Rakhimov, the founder of SilverStrategies. The investors who face these testing times, never forgetting why they sunk their funds into precious metals in the first place, are soon to be rewarded, according to Rakhimov. In this interview with The Gold Report, Rakhimov explains why he believes that investors who haven't been shaken out of stocks yet will be able to cash in on a "triple" headed to the silver sector.
The Gold Report: Sean, this market for precious metals is testing the mettle of even diehard investors. How is the market testing your resolve?
Sean Rakhimov: It's as hard on me as it is on everyone else, with the caveat that this is the only market that I participate in. I'm guessing most other people are buying other things along with their precious metals portfolios. It's been very trying in the last couple of years, but particularly this year.
TGR: Let's say for a moment that you're a precious metals coach. Please provide investors with some inspiration.
SR: It's not one-size-fits-all because times like these will identify your weaknesses in your outlook and convictions and exploit them. I am betting that a lot of investors are being shaken out of stocks.
On the other hand, the demand for physical metal has been absolutely astounding. The lower the silver price goes, the higher the demand. Shortages have been reported pretty much all over the world in recent weeks.
This provides an excellent opportunity. If investors haven't had exposure to precious metals at all, then they should start with the physical metal if they can find it. Otherwise, they need to prepare themselves for times like these, which will undoubtedly happen in the future. Learn from it and be prepared to not act like a victim and walk away from their positions when these situations happen again.

Silver: 3 Reasons The Little Brother Has Massive Potential
Silver holds all of the same characteristics that make gold a great monetary metal. Silver is durable, malleable, easily recognizable, portable, divisible, and uniform (one silver coin is basically the same as the next). It is also scarce enough to make it valuable for smaller transactions. Most important of all, as with gold, no amount of money printing will reduce your physical holdings of silver by one bit.
What makes silver even more attractive than gold is its potential upside. There are several reasons why silver may outperform gold in the coming years. They are outlined below. After examining these reasons, we’ll explore the recent shortage of Silver Eagles at the US Mint and what this all means for the price of silver in the long run.

Can Silver Shine Brighter Than Gold?
By Jason Sampognaro | More Articles
May 14, 2013
When we think of gold, we think of the solid, safe-haven, value-holding, inflation-hedging, shiny, yellow metal that lets us sleep at night knowing the governments of the world cannot print it out of existence. Gold is the big cheese in the precious-metals investing community. There’s no doubt that gold should be a part of everyone’s investment portfolio, but it’s important not to forget gold’s little brother: silver.
Silver holds all of the same characteristics that make gold a great monetary metal. Silver is durable, malleable, easily recognizable, portable, divisible, and uniform (one silver coin is basically the same as the next). It is also scarce enough to make it valuable for smaller transactions. Most important of all, as with gold, no amount of money printing will reduce your physical holdings of silver by one bit.
What makes silver even more attractive than gold is its potential upside. There are several reasons why silver may outperform gold in the coming years. They are outlined below. After examining these reasons, we’ll explore the recent shortage of Silver Eagles at the U.S. Mint and what this all means for the price of silver in the long run.
Reason #1: The 16:1 Rule
Historically, silver has traded at about a 16:1 ratio to gold. At today’s current spot prices, silver is trading at closer to 55:1. If we assume that silver will eventually return to its historic ratio, the current deviation could imply one of three scenarios:
1) Gold will drop off a cliff
2) Gold will fall significantly, while silver simultaneously rises
3) Silver will skyrocket to all-time highs

For the first scenario, let’s assume that silver’s price remains at current levels, and gold falls to assume the historic 16:1 ratio. At $30 per ounce of silver, gold would need to fall to $480 per ounce — a level not seen in almost nine years. For the second scenario, let’s assume that gold takes a significant hit. The most recent bearish estimates for the gold price have been around $1,200 per ounce. At a 16:1 ratio, silver would have to climb to $75 per ounce — more than double its current price. For the third scenario, let’s assume that gold maintains its current price, even though we at the Hard Assets Alliance think it is destined to move much higher. With gold at $1,600 per ounce, silver should be $100 — over three times its current price.
Of course, anything is possible, but if you believe that gold will rise as the dollar falls, what does that say about silver? Perhaps $100 per ounce does not seem so unreasonable.
Reason #2: The Metal of All Trades
Many of us think of silver as an investment metal, but silver’s main source of demand comes from industrial uses. In 2011, coin demand only made up about 10 percent of total demand for silver. The rest was applied, in everything from photography to jewelry and electronics. There are even some instances of silver replacing platinum in catalytic converters.

The Silver Scandal - The Long War On Silver
I have remade this video due to audio issues with the first one. The Silver Scandal - The long war on silver covers an interesting 70+ year old article covering the silver shortage in WW2 and is very interesting because it covers silver being "used up" and also cover silver leasing and silver certificates.

Gold & Silver...Plot to Collapse the Precious Metals Mining Industry?
..Banks and global governments are acquiring physical gold and silver at alarming rates. Are they attempting acquisition of the Gold & Silver mining industries? Is their goal to completely control production and distribution of precious metals? The UN's NWO agenda is to enslave the global population....slaves have no ownership rights to ANYTHING of VALUE! The PTB's never fail to disappoint coming up with schemes undreamed of.

Will Gold & Silver continue to fall or have they bottomed?
This week has seen somewhat reduced volatility in precious metals, with gold ranging between $1,442 and $1,480 and silver between $23.20 and $24.60. The question we would all like an answer to is having consolidated after the massive knock-down last month, will prices continue to fall, or have they bottomed?
To help answer this question, let’s look at the position of the bullion banks on Comex, in the form of the four largest traders. The two charts below are for gold and silver, and represent the balance between the gross long and gross short positions of the banks deemed to control the market.

Silver Bullion Shortage : GET PHYSICAL WHILE YOU STILL CAN! - Greg Mannarino, BrotherJohnF, SilverDoctors
Miners mine based on industrial demand which is way down and there is a surplus that salesmen are trying to push off on investors. Even if investment demand doubled it would not put a dent in what has dropped out of industrial demand. Miners pay bloggers and dealers to push their product. Silver was a great investment in the 90s and early 2000s but countries dont buy silver. These guys have to repeat the same crap every day, smells fishy.

Physical gold-silver shortage could benefit undervalued miners
by Jeb Handwerger
We may see a very powerful rebound
Now after this recent decline there is a palpable sense of panic and fear throughout the resource markets. This is the biggest decline since 2008 and 2003 when all the bad weather bears sold and missed out on 200% reversal moves in the mining indices.
Don't make a similar mistake now. As I stated before,
we should see a bounce. Hold on and add as we may be approaching a major bottom. I wrote recently that we may see a very powerful rebound as short covering and record investment demand returns to the precious metal sector.
All of the summer soldiers have left the battlefield. Only the long term value investors remain and they couldn't be happier as there are bargain basement discounts galore throughout the resource industry.
Mining is a difficult business that requires capital and meticulous operation management. Investors have been burned by the majors where we have witnessed a major decline in earnings and profits as costs soar.
Barrick (ABX) came out with better than expected earnings recently and rallied the entire gold mining sector on increasing volume. Interesting this comes right after panic selling and capitulation. Long term value investors are able to get a dividend paying stock with cash flow at $2 below book value.
Barrick announced incredible, better than expected numbers from its Cortez Trend properties in Nevada where cash costs are incredibly low. At the same time the Pascua Lama mine has become a disaster, which they should probably just shelve and take a write down.
The major miners are facing challenges with rising production costs from projects that are extremely capital intensive. In the past, they have done a poor job in their acquisitions into high cost mines in questionable jurisdictions.

Silver Shortage of April, 2013
(In Rounds and Eagles!)
Silver Stock Report
Rounds and Silver Eagles are sold out, and occasionally it has been difficult to source them, on and off, so far this year.
Prices over spot are changing up to 5% per day, and silver eagles are selling for up to 30-40% over spot on ebay.com.
Investor buying probably remains about where it has been for the past 4 years, at about 100 million oz. of silver per year, but maybe a tiny bit more in recent weeks of course.
Silver Eagles are about half of the silver sold to investors, nationwide.
There is nothing extraordinary about sales figures from the US Mint. They are pace to make about 40 million oz. of Silver Eagles this year, which is a bit more than last year, and about the same as the year before that.

Gold & Silver Coins & Bars Global Shortage
Premiums for gold and silver bars have jumped higher all over the world. They have surged to multi-year highs in Asia. Reuters reports overnight that premiums are surging due to "strong demand from the physical market, which has led to a shortage in gold bars, coins, nuggets and other products."
Shortages of gold and particular silver coins and bars is not confined to the small coin and bar market and there are also supply issues in the larger bar market with kilo bars being increasingly difficult to secure.
Swiss refineries are struggling to meet global demand for refined gold bars. They have been cleared out of their stock of kilo gold bars – the preferred form of gold bullion amongst many store of wealth, affluent buyers in Europe and Asia. Buyers have been told that they will have to wait until late May prior to receiving delivery on paid for product.
Shortages are most prevalent in the silver coin and bar market where premiums have surged.
Silver coins and bars can now not be bought from the largest bullion dealers in the U.S. who have been cleared out of stock in recent days. Unlike after Lehman Brothers where there were shortages and delays of 3 to 4 weeks, there is no guidance being given as to when certain gold and silver coins and bars will be available again.

Worldwide Silver Shortage Pushes Premiums On Silver Eagle Coins to 40%
By: Jason_Hamlin
COMEX silver prices once again dipped below $23 today. My previous article entitled Ignore COMEX Pricing – Silver Eagles Sold Out at Dealers, $33 on Ebay detailed just how divorced from reality the COMEX price has become. So with another dip today, I decided to try to get my hands on some more silver coins. I realized before I picked up the phone that it would be difficult, but I have a few dealers in Colorado and California that have consistently been able to find supply at reasonable premiums.
Not anymore. The first phone call that I made was to one of the largest bullion dealers in Southern California, where I have bought a good deal of my physical gold and silver over the past decade. In fact, I had just bought several rolls of silver eagle coins from them last month at around $2.65 over spot price per ounce. I also purchased some for a family member back in January and paid the same premium.
In the past when some analysts were talking about a supply shortage and rising premiums, I was always able to find supply from this particular shop with a reasonable premium that was never more than 10% over the spot price. But today I was told that I could only order for future delivery at some point in late May or June and that the premium was $5 over the spot price.

An Unprecedented Rush to Gold & Silver Bullion causes Shortages Worldwide
The shake out of ETFs and futures has left the Australian mint short of deliverables and Japanese and Chinese gold retailers seeing a “frenzied” surge in demand. The customers are not just the ‘rich’ or ‘elderly’; in China “they tend to wear water shoes and come directly from the market…;” in Australia, “the volume of business… is way in excess of double what we did last week,… there’s been people running through the gate,” and Japanese individual investors doubled gold purchases yesterday at Tokuriki Honten, the country’s second-largest retailer of the precious metal.
For bullion-buyers, this also introduces an additional variable to consider in looking for a source for your bullion: availability.
I certainly see the current situation as a "buying opportunity" for investors. Indeed, had I not used-up the remainder of my bullion-buying dollars (for the time being) at the beginning of September I would definitely be a buyer myself at the present time.
Higher premiums appear to be the "necessary evil" which those of us who want REAL bullion have to live with - unless you happen to live in a "bullion supermarket" like India. As people grudgingly pay these higher premiums, I remind people to consider how those "high premiums" will look a couple of years from now, when silver is likely MULTIPLES of the current price.
Given the choice between paying silver's (real) "fair market price" today (and getting low premiums on those purchases), or buying silver at a fraction of its real value, but getting "squeezed" for an extra dollar or two an ounce, it is obvious what is better for investors.

Many Online retailers Are reporting significant Shortages in Silver Bullion
Many other online retailers, however, are reporting significant shortages. So much so that some are being forced to cancel customer orders because there is simply no inventory, especially as it pertains to silver.
A subscriber alert from Future Money Trends indicated that the shortage is quickly becoming more widespread:
Several bullion dealers are reporting low or no inventory, others are just outright overcharging their customers. Wholesale dealers are also reporting they are out of several products including the American Eagle.- in etfdailynews : http://etfdailynews.com/2013/04/17/precious-metals-retailer-says-they-have-been-experiencing-astounding-volume/
…
“…there is basically a silver shortage right now. Dealers are starting to run out of products and delay the shipping times.” David Smoler, DBS Coins
Here is a message from my good friend who works in the bullion industry when I asked him if there were real shortages happening.
“Across the board, sold out. Delivery delays up to 4-6 weeks, premium rising. Friday was our busiest day ever; until today. Which was much busier.” Andy Hoffman, Miles Franklin

People running through the gate to buy Gold Bullion
There are reports of very strong demand for coins and bars from buyers internationally who believe that the sell off that saw gold fall to a two-year low is overdone.
Very significant demand is being seen throughout the world for physical bullion – in Japan, India, Australia, the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. The speculative raid by one or two banks which led to the price crash is being seen as a gift by eager buyers internationally.
Gold sales from Australia’s Perth Mint, which refines nearly all of the nation’s bullion, surged after prices plunged, adding to signs that gold’s slump to a two-year low is spurring increased demand.
“The volume of business that we’re putting through is way in excess of double what we did last week,” Treasurer Nigel Moffatt said by phone, without giving precise figures. “There’s been people running through the gate.”
The Perth Mint’s sales of gold coins climbed 49% to 97,541 ounces in the three months ended March 31 from a year earlier, according to data from the facility in Western Australia that was founded in 1899.

Silver Market Coming Under Orchestrated Attack
By: Clive_Maund
Much of what is written in the parallel Gold Market update applies equally to silver, and it will not be repeated here. So we will proceed to look immediately at the latest silver charts.
Silver was a sideshow on Friday, as it was gold that came under an orchestrated attack, being driven down first in the Far East before waves of selling in New York took it lower and lower towards critical support, before it was dealt the knockout blow by the London physical market suddenly freezing up in the afternoon, sending holders of bullion into a blind panic and mad scramble to protect themselves in the futures market.
Silver was sideswiped of course and the collateral damage it suffered resulted in it breaking below a remarkably clearly defined and strong support level by the close, as we can see on its 3-year chart, a development which has set it up for a potentially brutal selloff and vertical plunge next week, as this has and will trigger stops clustered in this area, and we can expect hapless traders to be driven towards the exits by margin calls sent out over the weekend.

Silver Market: China Silver Demand Increases as the Euro Continues its Downfall
Silver will be in high demand in the future. The future of silver looks promising. Many industry insiders understand that silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of any metal that currently exists. As we already know, silver has the potential to store more power in a small amount of space that any other metal that is in existence. Electrical connections that involve silver have the capacity to ignite power needed at a rapid speed. Industries that produce cell phones, computers and other devices for the average consumer use silver. With the popularity of iPhones, iPads and other devices produced by such corporations as Apple Computers will only increase in demand. Solar energy is another industry that silver can accommodate. The list is endless, especially in countries where manufacturing plants produce electronics that use silver such as China. In the web based daily news site chinadaily.com explained why silver is an important commodity in article from 2012 titled ‘China claims biggest global silver market’ by Wu Yiyao. China is the biggest economy in the world in terms of manufacturing. Yiyao reported that “The Washington-based Silver Institute said total silver demand in China increased by more than 100 million ounces, or Moz, in the past 10 years, to a record of 170.7 Moz in 2011.” One of the main reasons China will be an economic powerhouse for the next 100 years is because of its manufacturing base. Yiyao writes:
