Silver lease rates have exploded in China as gold’s consolidation continues ahead of the Fed Meeting.

Email: Silver Lease Rates Explode In China
December 8 (King World News) –
Email from King World News reader Grant W out of Australia:  G’day Guy’s, further to the Chinese market and the rumours of $125 per ounce of silver, the market lease-rate has exploded to 200% (that’s worse than loan sharks), leaving the re- hypothicated market who sold silver they didn’t have scrambling. All the while J.P Morgan has moved 169 million ounces into their custodial vaults and moved their entire previous metals trading desk to Singapore. All the while convincing clients to push-out their contracts to March, along with 375 paper owners for every one ounce on the COMEX. The canary died long ago, they just glued a stuffed one onto the perch to give the illusion of safety!…

Email: What To Do With The Miners
Email from King World News reader Alan S:
  Many thanks for the information that you share on King World News.  Us novices and even semi novices need all the help we can get, and your site is truly a God send.  I log in to King World News every day.

I have a question that I have pondered for some time now and still cannot come to a comfortable conclusion.  Your thoughts will be very much appreciated.

When the overall stock market collapses by 20% to 50% as projected, what happens to mining shares?  Do they crash also?  Should one try to get out before the crash or just hold on?

Again, many thanks.

Alan S

This Is Hard To Believe
Otavio Costa:  Who would have thought that with gold at $4,200/oz and silver nearing $60/oz, total capex across the mining industry would still be as depressed as it is now?

When you adjust for gold prices, aggregate capex is currently at one of its lowest levels in history.

Almost 90% lower than its previous highs.

KING WORLD NEWS NOTE: Mining Stock Capex vs Gold Is Near Lowest Level In History!

If you’re looking for a classic sign of a mining-cycle top, it’s when companies start spending like drunken sailors.

Today, we couldn’t be further from that.

All of this underscores my view that we’re still in the very early stages of what could become one of the most important mining cycles in a century.

Do Not Sell Mining Stocks
King World News note:  The next stock market decline may be a slow motion crash.  Meaning, death by a thousand cuts much like it was in 1973-9174.  During the ’73-74 bear market gold and silver skyrocketed along with the mining stocks.  

Also, while the XAU Gold Mining Index vs Gold remains in the”Devil’s Box” you do not want to sell any high-quality mining stocks because they are way too undervalued.  Mark Lundeen highlighted the King World News/MSA “Devil’s Box” below.
