Silver Bullion - What are silver futures (silver futures
contracts)?
What are silver futures or silver futures contracts? Silver futures or silver futures contracts, without getting too technical about it, are in
essence financial contracts that obligate the buyers of the relevant contracts to acquire or buy a specific
quantity and specific quality of silver from the sellers of the relevant contracts on a specific future date at
a specific price.

Physical Silver vs. Paper
Silver
All of the above-mentioned factors (quantity, quality, future date
of purchase and price) are pre-determined in detail in silver futures contracts.
Now it must be mentioned that most silver futures contracts do not call for the actual
delivery of the physical silver for settlement, but rather for
settlement in cash (at the time this was written). This while some silver futures contracts give the option (to
either the buyer or seller) to settle in cash or through the delivery of physical silver. The truth be told, the
settlement of most silver futures contracts are done in or happen in cash (or fiat money for that matter!). This opens the
door to silver market manipulation, because
almost endless mountains of paper silver can be created in this way with no
relation to the actual demand or supply of physical silver, although having a real impact on not only the
silver price as quoted in the news media and
elsewhere, but also on the actual prices silver investors are willing to pay for physical silver. In
fact, a conservative estimate indicates that for every 100 ounces of paper silver held there is only 1
ounce of actual or physical silver available to back it (at the time this was written). This is lunacy of
the highest order and is only allowed because the very same scoundrels, who are behind the deployment of the
“paper gimmick” in the U.S. and elsewhere in the
world, are behind it. It is one of their creations and one of many that are used for the specific purpose to
sustain the “paper gimmick” and to facilitate the transfer or rather 'legalized theft' of the wealth of the
target group. Make no mistake about it; it is nothing short of economic warfare on such a vast scale that it is
difficult at best for most people to understand or comprehend.

Yes, silver futures or silver futures contracts were originally used to
hedge against risks and to counterbalance possible losses in the silver market. However, ironically it has
turned into a proverbial beast, a beast which in its complete form (inclusive of all paper silver), has the capacity not only to destroy
the U.S. economy, but the global monetary or financial system in its entirety. The truth be told, the financial
system is nothing short of a gigantic casino today, a casino where astronomical bets are made on almost
everything imaginable through derivatives, silver futures contracts included
(at the time this was written). The best of all is that this ‘grand casino’ is largely left unregulated,
creating the perfect breeding ground for the above-mentioned scoundrels and their lackeys to step in and
practice their evil. It is very important to know that they are and have always been in the business of creating
problems (for others) and then pretend to offer solutions to the very same problems they have created. It is
never the best solutions, but the type of solutions that will only benefit them and create more problems
for the target group.
