Yesterday we published an article detailing the Comex gold futures to deliverable physical gold ratio that is now north of 200:1. But an erudite colleague of mine, John Titus of “Best Evidence,” correctly pointed out that: “They are probably bluffing. In other words, the real number is significantly higher than 200:1.”
For the record, John does more thorough research on the economic numbers and reports that he studies than anyone I’ve ever come across. And he does it with the trained analytic eye of a seasoned patent litigation attorney.

What is the probability of that?
JP Morgan was recently caught stuffing proprietary Comex futures short-sell trades into the “Managed Money” account category of the COT report.
