Silver Refineries no longer taking most silver

This is after dropping from paying 90% of spot to 80% of spot

Silver in a bubble?

basically so many mouth breathing rednecks are coming out selling their silver which traded sideways for 30 years, that refineries can't handle the capacity

This is actually bullish for (paper) silver

They literally cannot meet demand with the refineries running full tilt

I'd assume it's priced in though. These commodity traders aren't stupid.

Is that what it's saying? refineries are turning silver down and paying less for it - what's the other end? I don't know much about silver supply chain

agreed its priced in though

The first sign of a bubble or upcoming correction is when people on the street heavily discount or stop physical trades. This applies to over inflated currencies, etc

Bullish for paper silver and good delivery bars as the supply is bottlenecked

Bearish short-term for scrap silver as demand is bottlenecked

That's what you said, about the refineries. I don't know if they are or not. I just know that if they are at max capacity, then that's the logical conclusion.

no I'm not saying the refineries are at max capacity. I'm saying they're stopping taking some silver and paying less for what they do take
