๐Ÿงต THREAD: Something BIG Is Happening on COMEX (Dec โ€™25 & Mar โ€™26)
1/
Silver deliveries for December 2025 are exploding.

What started as a few hundred contracts suddenly turned into hundreds per day.
Weโ€™re now looking at 672+ requestsโ€ฆ and climbing.

Remember:
๐Ÿ‘‰ 1 contract = 5,000 oz
๐Ÿ‘‰ 672 contracts = 3.36 million ounces
๐Ÿ‘‰ And still EARLY.
2/
This isnโ€™t rollover behavior.
This isnโ€™t short covering.
This is โ€œI donโ€™t want cash โ€” I want metal.โ€

And COMEX HATES when longs ask for metal.

@michaeldweiss 3).
because of opposition from countries in the BRICS group of emerging economies, which includes Brazil, India, China, and South Africa.

EU lawmakers called on the Commission many times to do what FATF was not able to.โ€

โ€žAlthough @marcorubio calls himself a conservative, if you look closely at his time in the Senate โ€“ with all his flip-flops and failures, his shapeshifting and Trumpification โ€“
2).
youโ€™ll see that a more apt description of his politics is the quote attributed to the 19th-century French socialist Alexandre Auguste Ledru-Rollin (1807โ€“1874) [1]: ยปThere go the people; I must follow them, for I am their leaderยซ [2].
3).
What was Rubioโ€™s reaction to losing the Republican nomination in 2016? First, he endorsed the same ยปliarยซ and ยปcon artistยซ who could not be trusted with the nuclear codes. And then โ€“ of course โ€“ he broke his pledge not to run for re-election.โ€
