Post claims a physical silver shortage is disrupting COMEX trading, citing CME cancellations of day and GTC orders for a session and alleging impaired hedging/price discovery. Tradeable angle: if verified, any exchange/clearing or liquidity disruption can widen spreads, lift near-dated volatility, and potentially steepen backwardation/raise lease rates—supportive for spot and front-month silver relative to deferred. However, the content is second-hand/social and mixes operational order-handling with broader shortage conclusions; treat as a volatility/liquidity watch item until confirmed by CME notices and inventory/flows data. Monitor COMEX registered stocks, EFP/EFS activity, and SLV/ETF creations/redemptions for confirmation.
