◆ GoldCore Live Video Update: Gold and Silver Coin and Bar Premiums - What Is Happening?

◆ Premiums are higher on gold and silver coins and bars, both when you buy and when you sell, and may stay higher in the "new normal."

◆ Bullion coin and bar premiums are not commissions and brokers only make a small component of the premium in what is a very low margin business.

◆ Beware of aggressive pricing strategies on coins and bars and focus on getting value with regard to premiums.

◆ GoldCore remains open for business and when they become available we are buying coins and bars from our government mint and large refinery suppliers and from our clients. While oremiums have surged, we have kept our premiums very competitive. We are paying 1.5% over spot gold to clients for gold kilo bars and higher premiums for smaller bars and bullion coins (1 oz).

◆ We are only selling to clients who have cleared funds on account and are on our Buyers List as we simply cannot meet the demand we are experiencing.

NEWS and COMMENTARY

Gold Dealers Report Big Shortages of Small Bars and Coins

(Bloomberg) -- When people are worried about the future they turn to gold to protect their savings. That's rarely been more true than today.

Surging demand and disruptions from the coronavirus pandemic have created a shortage of the small gold bars most popular with consumers. Those who do manage to get their hands on metal have to pay up –- well above the per-ounce prices being quoted on financial markets in London and New York.

Some dealers are desperately contacting clients to see if anyone is willing to sell their gold bars and coins, and offering a rare premium over spot prices. Others have given up trying to trade altogether.

"People want to buy, not to sell gold," said Mark O'Byrne, the founder of GoldCore, a dealer based in Dublin. "We have a buyers' waiting list and we emailed our clients seeing who wished to sell their gold. At this time there is roughly only one or two sellers for every 99 buyers."

Fwd: The Looming Bank Collapse The U.S. financial system could be on the cusp of calamity. This time, we might not be able to save it.

After months of living with the coronavirus pandemic, American citizens are well aware of the toll it has taken on the economy: broken supply chains, record unemployment, failing small businesses. All of these factors are serious and could mire the United States in a deep, prolonged recession. But there's another threat to the economy, too. It lurks on the balance sheets of the big banks, and it could be cataclysmic. Imagine if, in addition to all the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, you woke up one morning to find that the financial sector had collapsed. You may think that such a crisis is unlikely, with memories of the 2008 crash still so fresh. But banks learned few lessons from that calamity, and new laws intended to keep them from taking on too much risk have failed to do so. As a result, we could be on the precipice of another crash, one different from 2008 less in kind than in degree. This one could be worse.

The repo market is ‘broken’ and Fed injections are not a lasting solution, market pros warn

By Joy Wiltermuth Published: Dec 7, 2019 9:35 a.m. ET Banks prefer to keep money at Fed instead of lending to other banks Getty Images Examining $100 bills. Getty Images By Joy Wiltermuth Markets reporter The Federal Reserve's ongoing efforts to shore up the short-term "repo" lending markets have begun to rattle some market experts. The New York Federal Reserve has spent hundreds of billions of dollars to keep credit flowing through short term money markets since mid-September when a shortage of liquidity caused a spike in overnight borrowing rates. But as the Fed's interventions have entered a third month, concerns about the market's dependence on its daily doses of liquidity have grown. "The big picture answer is that the repo market is broken," said James Bianco, founder of Bianco R...
