Highly unlikely we see the 80kโ90k zone tagged again. If we do itโs another opportunity to add more shorts.
Entering any new shorts below $80k is not worth it as the risk/reward favorable.
Cash stays king. Better to preserve capital and let the market bleed out until itโs time to enter.
I donโt leverage trade but like I said in my post above 80k was too good to ignore.

From the @WhiteHouse factsheet on the global 10% tariff (section 122):
Critical minerals (which include silver and PGMs), metals used in currency and bullion (all precious metals products), are exempted.
If that still leaves any doubt, there is also a second line item stating they will not tariff any natural resource the US is net short on.

Silver open interest and March deliveries.
Social media has become a sea of confusion, misinformation, and speculation involving silver futures and the March delivery month.
The fact is, the Comex is not going to default and March contracts are being liquidated or rolled in an orderly fashion.
We just saw a decline of 14,196 March contracts yesterday, which equates to almost 71 million ounces. This is happening with volatility declining.
It appears the market is strengthening under the surface with less participation. Not seeing the crowded conditions we saw in January.

Following the Supreme Court ruling Customs and Border Protection is deactivating all tariff codes associated with the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
This creates an immediate fiscal vacuum, as these tariffs were generating over ๐ฑ๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐บ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป per day in gross revenue.
More importantly, it exposes the US Treasury to massive liability, with economists estimating that more than ๐ญ๐ณ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป in illegally collected duties are now subject to potential corporate refunds.

To interpret this as a return to free trade would be a severe miscalculation!
The Trump administration is not abandoning its protectionist stance it is merely rotating its legal authority.
As the IEEPA duties fall away, a new ๐ญ๐ฑ% global tariff is being simultaneously imposed under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Furthermore, the targeted Section 232 and Section 301 tariffs remain completely untouched!

This is a structural continuation of the current trade regime disguised as a cyclical disruption!
The refund process will be deeply protracted and litigious, meaning a sudden ๐ญ๐ณ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป liquidity injection for US importers is highly improbable in the near term.
Meanwhile, the rapid replacement of the tariffs guarantees that supply chains will continue to face elevated costs and persistent inflationary pressures.
Legal volatility. Structural protectionism.

THE SILVER-EQUITY NEXUS ๐
The historical divergence between precious metals and risk assets is temporarily breaking down as we can observe in the chart below.
Cross-asset linkages seem to be tightening, for the time being silver is increasingly trading as a high-beta proxy for broader equity liquidity rather than an isolated monetary metal.
โช๏ธ STRONG POSITIVE CORRELATION EMERGES ๐
Equities and silver are exhibiting a surprisingly strong positive correlation in recent times.
They are currently moving largely in tandem, overriding traditional safe-haven dynamics.
This tightening relationship means risk transmission is bleeding directly across asset classes.
โช๏ธ EQUITY LIQUIDITY IS DICTATING METALS PRICING ๐
At present the broader macro tone remains cautiously bearish.
If a sustained equity selloff materializes it is highly likely to exert direct downside pressure on silver.
Conversely if equities can absorb the current selling pressure and stabilize, silver is positioned for rapid upward momentum.
โช๏ธRISK TRANSMISSIONS Trumps Isolated Fundamentals ๐
This implies a cyclical liquidity adjustment rather than a structural change in silverโs core thesis.
When cross-asset correlations approach one, it signals a macro environment driven by broad de-risking or re-risking rather than idiosyncratic value.
Confirmation from price action across both markets is now critical before sizing positions.
๐๏ธ KEY INTERMARKET SIGNALS TO MONITOR ๐
โข Correlation Window: Positive tandem movement
โข Downside Risk: Equity capitulation will drag silver lower.
โข Upside Catalyst: Equity stabilization provides a springboard for metals.
โข Tactical View: Watch the S&P for leading indicators on silver entry points.
โก๏ธ Cyclical correlation. Structural patience.

This figure represents a ๐ฎ๐ญ% decline from the ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฐ record of ๐ญ,๐ฌ๐ต๐ฎ.๐ฐ tonnes.

To determine if this is a bearish signal, we must compare the current run rate to historical averages.
Between ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ and ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ญ, central bank demand averaged ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฏ tonnes per year.
Since ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฎ, a new regime has emerged. The four-year average (including 2025) now sits near ๐ญ,๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ญ tonnes.
Even with the year-over-year decline, ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑ demand remains nearly double the pre-2022 average.
This marks the ๐ญ๐ฒ๐๐ต consecutive year of net buying from the official sector.

The data suggests we are witnessing a structural repricing of sovereign reserves rather than a fleeting trend.
The failure to break the ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฐ record is a cyclical normalization, not a reversal of the thesis.
We have moved from a decade of tactical allocation (averaging <๐ฑ๐ฌ๐ฌ tonnes) to a strategic era of accumulation (averaging >๐ด๐ฑ๐ฌ tonnes).
This creates a persistent, non-price-sensitive bid underneath the market.
The "floor" for central bank demand has effectively shifted upward, driven by geopolitical fragmentation and a desire for neutral reserve assets.

Silver prices are pushing toward multi-decade highs but the physical market is exhibiting a structural dislocation.
The divergence between rising spot prices and collapsing premiums suggests a fundamental shift in how the metal is being monetized.

Silver has experienced significant appreciation driven by ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ๐๐๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ (specifically solar and electronics) and inflationary hedging.
Paradoxically while the spot price is rising, ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ถ๐๐บ๐ have collapsed.

We are witnessing a "Melt Value Flip."
The intrinsic metal value of common silver coins now exceeds their numismatic (collector) value.
This creates immediate "๐บ๐ฒ๐น๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ."
Historic coins are being diverted from the collector market to refiners to be melted down for industrial use.
This permanently removes supply from the numismatic ecosystem, converting history into industrial feedstock.

The 2025 data regarding official sector gold accumulation has arrived. While headline volumes have retreated from record highs, a longer-term view reveals a fundamental change in the baseline demand function for sovereign reserves.

World Gold Council estimates central bank demand reached ๐ด๐ฒ๐ฏ.๐ฎ tonnes in 2025.
This figure represents a ๐ฎ๐ญ% decline from the ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฐ record of ๐ญ,๐ฌ๐ต๐ฎ.๐ฐ tonnes.
While this data is preliminary and likely to be revised upward as lagging institutions report, it currently sits below the psychological ๐ญ,๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ-tonne threshold.

To determine if this is a bearish signal, we must compare the current run rate to historical averages.
Between ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ and ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ญ, central bank demand averaged ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฏ tonnes per year.
Since ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฎ, a new regime has emerged. The four-year average (including 2025) now sits near ๐ญ,๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ญ tonnes.
Even with the year-over-year decline, ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑ demand remains nearly double the pre-2022 average.
This marks the ๐ญ๐ฒ๐๐ต consecutive year of net buying from the official sector.
The market impact remains evident, with gold appreciating +๐ฐ๐ฒ% against the Euro over the same period.

The data suggests we are witnessing a structural repricing of sovereign reserves rather than a fleeting trend.
The failure to break the ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฐ record is a cyclical normalization, not a reversal of the thesis.
We have moved from a decade of tactical allocation (averaging <๐ฑ๐ฌ๐ฌ tonnes) to a strategic era of accumulation (averaging >๐ด๐ฑ๐ฌ tonnes).
This creates a persistent, non-price-sensitive bid underneath the market.
The "floor" for central bank demand has effectively shifted upward, driven by geopolitical fragmentation and a desire for neutral reserve assets.

Most of you did.. or did not โฆ pay attention to who replaced Powell.
Before the K. Warsh announcement, the market assumed: โNew Chair = Fresh Pump.โ
That missed the point.
This appointment is the single most important monetary policy shift since 2008.
Kevin Hassett (๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐๐ซ) was traded for
Kevin Warsh (๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฆ).
๐ต ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ค๐๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐ธ
Before the announcement, markets priced in Hassett.
He represented technological optimism, a continuation of the credit cycle where stablecoins and cheap debt keep the wheels turning.
Under that regime, liquidity expandsโฆ and Bitcoin flies.
๐ต ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐โ๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ง
Warsh is different. Heโs a disciple of sound money.
He doesnโt believe the Fedโs job is to keep the S&P 500 at all-time highs.
He believes the Fedโs $๐.๐๐ balance sheet is a systemic risk that needs to be cut.
๐ต ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ก ๐ฅ
Why does this matter for your bags?
Bitcoin has a 0.43 correlation with Global M2.
It is a liquidity sponge.
โข Hassett would have turned the tap ON
โข Warsh is here to turn the tap OFF
Warsh appears focused on extracting ~$๐๐ from the banking system to restore Dollar credibility versus the Yuan and Gold.
You cannot have a shrinking money supply and a parabolic crypto market at the same time.
The math does not work.
๐ต ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ก ๐๐๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ฑ โ๏ธ
Hereโs the nuance most are missing: Warsh is not anti-Bitcoin.
He sees Bitcoin as a thermometer: a warning signal when government spending runs hot.
But hereโs the problem:
A thermometer doesnโt heat the house.
By fixing the Dollar and halting debasement, Warsh lowers the temperature.
He makes the Dollar attractive again.
A stronger Dollar is kryptonite for asset pricesโฆ at least in the short term.

A chop is forming between $๐๐๐ค โ $๐๐๐ค
(upper wicks could stretch all the way toward ~$๐๐๐ค).
Big money is distributing to retail that still believes the โFed Putโ is coming.
It isnโt.
Warsh will likely chose Austerity over Debasement.

I respect the mechanism. Iโm not fighting the Fed.
A range is forming where patience will be tested and leverage will be punished possibly for weeks or months!
After the chop, the liquidity drain likely pushes price through the current floor ($๐๐๐ค).
I have some bids near 59, but Iโm waiting for repricing in the $๐๐๐ค โ $๐๐๐ค zone before deploying serious capital
