As the paper price of gold
falls even lower due to market manipulation, gold continues to bleed
from the COMEX Warehouse stocks. Today, another 156,310 ounces were removed from the Customer inventories.
What is even more interesting is how much gold has been removed from the COMEX since the beginning of the year.
From The SRSRoccoReport:
If we look at the COMEX Inventory table below, we can see that 64,177
oz were removed from HSBC and 92,133 oz were removed from Scotia
Mocatta. Again, both of these were withdrawn from the Eligible or
Customer Inventories.
While HSBC and Scotia Mocatta can afford these sort of gold
withdrawals from their customer inventories, as you can see, JP Morgan
cannot with only 141,197 oz remaining. Basically, the gold that
was removed from these two bank vaults, would have totally wiped out JP
Morgan’s remaining customer inventory.
Furthermore, as we can see from the chart below, Gold Continues to Bleed from the Comex:
Since the beginning of the year, total COMEX gold inventories have
fallen 32%, from 11 million oz in January to 7.5 million oz today. This chart is from 24hGold.com, and has not be updated yet as it still shows the previous days total in the top right part of the chart at 7.68 million.
So, as the bizarre paper trading in the precious metal markets keeps
pushing the price of gold lower, investors continue to withdraw more
gold out of the COMEX warehouses.
It will be interesting to see what happens to JP Morgans pathetically
small gold inventories in the next several weeks and months.
