He said Shanghai is now shut down and Crimex is the only game in town for price discovery. They should be able to get paper silver down to $40 within a couple weeks.
Don’t bet against the criminals.
BTW – just looked at eagles and maples, the premiums are already between $12-$14. Ridiculous. Even more ridiculous is that they are paying $2-$4 under spot.
I listened to some of this video from our brothers site and Asian guy has the numbers for big money industrial demand. The rest I figured would happen but wasn’t thinking big enough, ” big money.” the elephants in the room. Well have to see.
They think they can hold the silver price down by halting silver stocks that are made in paper trades? So what, they go buy the silver instead contributing to the supply shortage? Lol
China is the main reason behind the silver pullback. It can’t do anything about the demand so is trying to manage, slow the parabolic.
china halted silver trading today

As of April 15, 2026, reports indicate that the Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) has halted silver trading, effective Thursday morning, amid extreme volatility and a narrowing supply. This follows a series of regulatory interventions in early 2026, including the suspension of China’s only pure-play silver fund in January and February to curb excessive speculation, high premiums, and to protect investors.

Key details regarding the silver market situation in China:
Trading Halts: The UBS SDIC Silver Futures Fund (LOF) experienced an emergency halt on Jan 30, 2026, with further suspensions for silver funds continuing into February, as noted by Reuters.
Supply Tightness: China has implemented strict, new, silver export restrictions as of Jan 1, 2026 and is dealing with low reported silver inventories, say Carbon Credits and a YouTube report.
Market Context: These actions follow a rapid, unsustainable rally in silver prices driven by high demand from the green energy sector (solar panels and electric vehicles) and investors hedging against a weak U.S. dollar, notes CNBC.
These measures indicate a crackdown on speculative trading, aimed at managing, rather than stopping, the physical demand for silver in China.
We had silver above $80, gold was coming back, and then the dollar rallied hard…oh wait! The dollar is lower! For sure then oil is up big time and the SM is selling off hard -nope. Bonds? I guess it must be bonds today.
Deer79 – I’m with you. How we go from parabolic to dead virtually overnight is beyond me. Gold goes up $100 and HUI goes up 15. Gold goes down $40 and HUI loses 25. Silver up $4, but silver shares end up net losers the next day when silver goes down $.40. Shut it all down.
Don’t like to say this, but the sooner this whole thing implodes, the better. Should have happened in 2008, but the power elites said NYET, we want the games to go on……
Obstruction of justice and intimidating witnesses law. Copied from London corruption laws? If they want to reverse to the Roman empire stone age make things up as they go along laws maybe I can start a business selling rocks with their names on it for the day of the regime change.
NEM being sold ahead of earnings. Guess investors are fed up with stock dropping 10-20% every time they announce great earnings. So why not sell before?

The court of appeals has basically just slapped Judge Boasberg and told him to stop abusing his position as a judge to attack the Trump Administration.
Since I checked on the dollar after reading my herb book where I think I have a herb tea for any kind of condition now and a positive counter to the market I checked yikes think it was WEAT symbol for a wheat stock after Armstrong’s comment. It closed green today but technically not in buying zone yet but moved over the 50 EMA to keep a eye on.
It might not be, just trading in a range right now. See if there’s a fed meeting coming up. Plus with increasing debit people are moving away from treasuries to PMs and Bitcoin for safe haven.

California is trying to pass a bill that would criminalize investigative journalism with misdemeanors, $10,000 fines, imprisonment, and content takedown.
The proposed bill is titled AB 2624 and was made after I exposed mass fraud by immigrant groups in America.
They never learn. This is the same kinda of corruption that ruins these programs that run out of money that was meant to help our citizens that need it. They’re just a special kind of stupid. The new guys getting in are just as bad or worse than the previous ones.
Why Israel is going to be isolated, because of Netanyaho. In a video a few days before this he said Europe should stock up on food and victory gardens.. with current events.
Yes during Biden it was open season on thousands of children by so called non profits for profit. They were actually putting out flyers in South American countries to come to America, they were recruiting people and children.

Contextual Factors:
“Unaccounted For” Children: Reports indicate that over 85,000 migrant children were not properly tracked after being placed with sponsors by the ORR, with some reports suggesting even higher figures for children who have become “lost” within the system.
Federal Funding & Roles: These organizations frequently operate under federal contracts and grants to provide housing, case management, and legal services to minors at the border, with some, such as Global Refuge, experiencing significant increases in revenue.
Vetting Failures: Concerns have been raised about the speed of releasing children to sponsors, with allegations that vetting was rushed, resulting in children being placed with individuals who were not their parents or legal guardians, including human traffickers.
