Submitted by Tyler Durden: We are confident that in the aftermath of our article from last night "Just What Is Going On With The Gold In JPMorgan's Vault?"
in which we showed the absolute devastation of "eligible" (aka
commercial) gold warehoused in JPM's vault just over the Manhattan
bedrock at 1 Chase Manhattan Place (and also in the entire Comex vault
network in the past month), we were not the only ones checking every
five minutes for the Comex gold depository update for April 25.
Moments ago we finally got it, and it's a doozy. Because in just the
past 24 hours, from April 24 to April 25, according to the Comex, JPM's
eligible gold plunged from 402.4K ounces to just 141.6K ounces, a drop
of 65% in 24 hours,and the lowest amount of eligible gold held at the
vault on record, since its reopening in October 2010!
The absolute collapse in JPM's eligible gold inventory, means total Comex eligible gold has fallen to just 5.8 million ounces, half of what it was in early 2011, and back to levels last seen in March 2009.
So, once again, just like last night, we ask the same questions which are even more critical today than they were 24 hours ago:
- What happened to the commercial gold vaulted with JPM, and what was the reason for the historic drawdown?
- Gold, unlike fiat, is not created out of thin air, nor can it be shred or deleted. Where did the gold leaving the JPM warehouse end up (especially since registered JPM and total Comex gold has been relatively flat over the same period)?
- Did any of this gold make its way across the street, and end up at the vault of the building located at 33 Liberty street?
- What happens if and/or when the JPM vault is empty of commercial gold, and JPM receives a delivery notice?
