76.88 million ounces of registered silver. 575.5 million ounces of open interest. A coverage ratio of 13.4% — below the stress threshold for the sixth consecutive issue. And First Notice Day for the May contract is approaching.In January 2026, 33.45 million ounces of silver were withdrawn from COMEX registered inventory in a single week.

Lescure also said that he strongly encourages banks to…
