I currently have a lot of private messages. Please be assured that all messages will be read to and replied to this coming week. -
Options/Futures/Swaps. Mostly those are cash settled. I write (sell) a Option to deliver 100 ounces of gold on a particular future date - or many multiples of such contracts. Come that date and the contract expects the seller of 100 ounces of gold to be provided to the buyer. With many such Options/Futures contracts however, oil, pigs bellies, whatever many don't actually want to take delivery, rather they'll accept (or pay) the cash value/difference instead. Investors aren't buying to get a ton of pork delivered to them at home, rather they're buying to hopefully make gains, more money. Similarly sellers/writers create those Options in expectation of making money. One side wins, the other loses, same with any other investment such as stocks. When there are few taking actually delivery of Options, cash settlements instead, so more Options/contracts are created than what actual amount of gold/whatever is actually available. What is commonly considered as being paper-gold, exists on paper only (or nowadays in a computer system/virtual). Basically its a way to leverage, scale up gains (or losses) relative to small changes in prices. The market is more efficient when leverage is being used as even a whisper of a small change can yield a decent profit (loss) that otherwise non-leveraged might incur too much in the way of dealing fees/whatever in order to be viable to arbitrage. You can generate a form of 'dividend' from gold with Options/Futures as the price includes a element of time-value, reflective of interest that might have been earned/paid over the length of time of the contract. So some investment houses may hold gold and buy (or sell) some Options/Futures rather than just holding gold alone. Or even just buy (or sell) Options and hold no gold. The sellers of contracts often buy those back again just before expiry (delivery date) in order to avoid having to find (buy) gold in order to hand over to the Option contract holder. The 123 paper-gold to gold ratio is indicative that a lot more gold is being offered for delivery than what gold is actually available. If all of those that opted to buy contracts did so with the intent to take delivery of physical gold, not sell those contracts before the contract expiry date, then there's no way all of those contracts could be honoured. -

He's pushing the narrative that once the stock markets and USD collapse, the central authorities will be forced to revalue all debt and currency into gold and by extension, silver. If you do those calculations you can put gold at an insanely high price (think if the US revalued the $35 trillion debt + $35 trillion assets into gold) and thus for a limited period during the currency revaluation transition, you could buy a house for a few ounces of gold or 75-100 ounces of silver I agree it's highly speculative but it's fun to think about. I could buy an entire street with my stack 😂 -
