Gold $1253.00 down $9.00
Silver 17.30 down 25 cents
THE DAILY GOLD FIX REPORT FROM SHANGHAI AND LONDON
.
The Shanghai fix is at 10:15 pm est and 2:15 am est
The fix for London is at 5:30 am est (first fix) and 10 am est (second fix)
Thus Shanghai’s second fix corresponds to 195 minutes before London’s first fix.
And now the fix recordings:
Shanghai morning fix Oct 3 (10:15 pm est last night): $ holiday
NY ACCESS PRICE: $
Shanghai afternoon fix: 2: 15 am est (second fix/early morning):$ holiday
NY ACCESS PRICE:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
London Fix: Sept 30: 5:30 am est: $1265.50 (NY: same time:1265.70 $: 5:30AM)
London Second fix Sept 30: 10 am est: $1254.50 (NY same time: $1254.50 , 10 AM)
It seems that Shanghai pricing is higher than the other two , (NY and London). The spread has been occurring on a regular basis and thus I expect to see arbitrage happening as investors buy the lower priced NY gold and sell to China at the higher price. This should drain the comex.
Also why would mining companies hand in their gold to the comex and receive constantly lower prices. They would be open to lawsuits if they knowingly continue to supply the comex despite the fact that they could be receiving higher prices in Shanghai.

Deutsche Bank Dumped On Heavy Volume As German Government Denies Talks With US DOJ
In addition to 100s more job cuts, Deutsche Bank stock is tumbling on the back of Bloomberg reports thatthe German government isn’t in talks with the U.S. Department of Justice over Deutsche Bank.
- There are no talks taking place with the DoJ, German government official says on customary condition of anonymity
- German government has always made clear that this is about talks between the U.S. authorities and Deutsche Bank: official
And the reaction is a heavy volume dump…
Is the short-squeeze stock party over?
If Cryan comes home empty-handed, Germany is going to need another bank holiday on Monday.
