Perhaps the options that the scum use to repress metal prices, are diminishing??? Silver is certainly becoming an ever important tool for them to use to squash up days…..
Alex Valdor………as far as the large spread in Palladium between the bid and ask…..
When I was a market-maker at the CBOE, if our pit was the only exchange listing specific prices for calls and puts on a stock, we could widen the bid and ask as much as we wanted to because we were the only game in town. When stocks became multiple listed (San Fran, New York, Amex etc.), the spreads significantly tightened, as the competition to gain business over the other exchanges became cutthroat.
Perhaps certain market-makers in Palladium are stepping back (tariffs???) and the few that are left have widened their markets accordingly???
