China Silver Price Today in USD | Shanghai Premium - MetalCharts
Track the China silver price in dollars (USD) in real-time. Live SGE prices converted to US dollars for easy comparison with Western spot prices.
Wow, that entertaining Asian Guy channel is really having AI hallucinations. It claimed total USD collapse to occur last weekend and now it's claiming that foreign state hackers have secretly drained all of the physical metals from Western vaults without the CME realising it was gone. Time to give up on Youtube, it's a sea of AI slop.
Too true. I got this feeling the other day when I chanced across a vid of AG AI taking exception to and criticising a real YT poster who called out AG AI.
I thought YT had rules around AI vid's having to disclose it's AI content. Would love to see AG AI old mate does a face to face with lets say Peter Schiff (hehehe) as proof of non AI persona.
Im seeing silver as a set of fundamental perceptions.
Financial (Money, like gold), Industrial (Critial but consumed, like Oil), Sentamental (antiques , jewellery, collectable), and Opportunistic (meme coins and tulips)
The memetic aspect, driven by naratives, is like a spectrum of posible identitys attached to what intellience or propaganda your exposed too, and I feel that the price divergence between Shanghi and west is a bias introduced by:
Western treatment with a more financial, and opportunistic bias. Where the Shanghi price is valuing the industrial utility and pricing for the physical scarcity.
Like the west is the "real" bid. And shanghi is the "real" ask.
And the spread is the logistical overhead and cost value in arbourtrage that is where the players with all the control of the system are profiting in the "wealth transfer"
The price drop?
Profit taking?
If theres a massive flow of silver now headed from the us to china. And the price dropped because the US markets overextended the shorts on the western market as the shanghi price fell (obviously with purchaces the critical demand drops... and it would be suspicious if the shanghi price just plummits on demand relief...
Then thats insider trading... right?
Id love to see the silver physical flow dynamics for this month, and the short positions that have gone into the market over the fortnight bridging this weekend...

Watched "Hello Dear Friends....my name is Clive Thompson" latest vid just now. No emotion, no outrageous calls on what happens next, just mono tone Clive sharing his data dive into share market and metals price crashes eg how many and what happened next. Granted some of the current drivers for PM's especially Ag are different to past economic drivers, as a numbers guy who see history as one part of the puzzle to what happens next the data presented was quite interesting.
I asked Chatgpt if she knew AG Jon AI Guy. She said she didnt know him but she knew who he was on YouTube.
Sometimes talking to these AI bots is funny but can be a little creepy.
Last summer I told Chat to talk to me like a sexy grandma and it got wierd real fast the way she was talking to me haha. Kept calling me honey and sweetie and all the things.
I told her to stop that and talk to me like a smart grandma that knows everything instead.
When i gave her permission to get sexy she turned into a gilf (grandma id like to fk).
Just didnt seem smart to be sneaking around the wife with a chat bot hehe.
Last thing I need is those two fighting over me.

Nice summary based on fact rather than speculation and rumour. Clive's video is worth 10,000 of those AI crud vids.
It was sad to see how many fell under the spell of "Chinese Guy" content, Cognitive bias is something we should always keep in mind imho.

I am finding I need to watch a spread of many youtube channels since none are really good enough to only follow since even the bad ones occasionally bring up a valid point that the others have missed. I find though that generally if we believe the narrative that manipulation will end (or at least get a bit under control) the "true" price discovery for silver should mean higher prices in the short/medium term. The idea is to stick with that conviction and not panic

When people talk about silver manipulation its most always related to suppression as historically that's what it always been but it can work both ways. So many sources of information now it's easy to suffer from confirmation bias and i can't help but wonder what agenda they are pushing.
This is one of the best, well researched articles i have come across about institutional silver manipulation:
https://navnoorbawa.substack.com/p/eight-banks-paid-13b-for-silver-manipulation
Makes me wonder if the current market is based solely on all the conditions creating the perfect storm or if there is a little guiding hand in it all. Hard not to be at least a little skeptical given what's happened with silver in our lifetime.
Bitcoin dropping sub 50k, its about time to diversify back into air coins. So easy!

I'm hoping we will see prices stay around this level for a while before then gradually starting to climb. You know, like a normal marketplace 
The Asian Guy / John AG channel is still sharting out videos on an industrial scale but it's also made big calls like the "US currency collapse" prediction for 2 weekends ago that were of course completely off target....
Apparently China had a ban on trading in several PM and Oil funds as this all occured.
www.fxleaders.com
Notes that some funds were trading at premium of 30%+ to the shanghi silver price...
Also read somewhere the COMEX has guardrails that should kick. In during volatility such as occured friday that halt trading: "circuit breakers"? Which did not get set off...
I mean.. If momentium was building in Easterm markets on the demand, and demand is halted, and western markets were selling into that one way demand, and western markets didnt pause... thats like dropping the tug of war rope and seeing how far the side with pressure applied is willing to go.
Also saw on an AI YT vid data indicating JPM had a lot of shorts close on the bottom.
Havent been able to verify that. But wouldnt surprise me if markets fell becasuse demand side took a break, that a price dip exceeding a market safety feature limit would result in huge short position closure.
Becides stopping the fall, it also meant they close out before the 35% margin increase to the new floating limits that were supposed to mitigate any need for further staticly set margin requirements.
Mabie they need to change the rules again to include a margin premium based on volatility instead of price... i mean, that IS what they clain the changes to premiums are a due to when they change things.
Imo. Were squarely in bubble pop and bull trap mindset space to all the chart analysis trading algos and short term speculators now, so fundamentals and manipulation theory take a back seat until somethung sayisfying those self fullfilling predictions play out
If its qquick, itll look like a dead cat bounce... i drawn out itmay last months and actually go somewhat sideways overall due to underlying demand.
I hope sideways... because we do kind of want high prices for miners to actually increase production...
And physical investor silver isnt likely to create industry inflows to levels that will meet consumption in a sustainable way.
China Imposes Full-Day Silver Fund Pauses Amid Commodity Mania
China suspended trading of five commodity funds on Friday to reduce the underlying risks of investment mania in gold, silver, and oil,

oh well i wont live long enough to get the cash back not to worry lets hope im wrong this time.
oh well i wont live long enough to get the cash back not to worry lets hope im wrong this time.I sat out the entire run up after being stuck with PMs since 2013, decided to send 50k to CMC to buy into energy, found they didn't have what I wanted, somehow ended back at a PM index going against what I was saying the whole time and knowing it was late, it crashed the next day.
