What determines the price of physical silver?

Supply and demand.

supply and demand of physical silver only determines premium over (or under) spot price. So other than the small percentage that premium adds to the total price, what actually sets the price of physical silver?

"sets" the price? LoL

Loves me some shiny!
And how do you determine this price you are willing to pay?

no mystery. It's JP Morgan. Holds over a million hard ounces and moves the most paper on the COMEX.

JP must be having nightmares riddled with these loosers...
or having wet dreams as they get away with cornering the market with the low prices they control. Prices keep dropping and their stack keeps growing. They appear to know something a few here don't understand.
Since 2000 JPM has paid over $29B in fines for 95 banking violations. Why would anyone accuse them of being corrupt. LOL. Fortunately for JPM, the CFTC's "hands off" approach regulates the futures market as JPM continues to set spot price on the COMEX and take advantage of that price with it's growing stockpile.
Around the same time silver bullion was hitting its near $50 high in late April 2011, JPMorgan began stockpiling silver bullion in its COMEX warehouse. (Buy High, Sell much Higher?).
JPM trying to catch a falling knife? Seriously? They know exactly what they are doing.
JPM is the silver market.

Know what's more precious than silver? A tasty conspiracy theory! Mmmm ... delicious!
We sure wish you would be right sometime and OUR silver go up in value rather than down.. down.. down..

fact remains fact, even when you close your eyes. Was I wrong when it went to $44? LOL.

What is the evidence that JPM is actually buying silver?

You do know that JPM operates a depsoitary that holds millions and millions and millions of ounces of silver for several ETFs? One of which even began in April 2011.
So I'll ask you again. What evidence do you have that JPM is actually buying silver for itself?

Interesting...not a single ETF on that list. The largest holder of silver is SLV, and they arent even on that list. Hmmm...do you think maybe they buy through JPM?

iShares silver ETF currently holds over more than 333 million ounces of silver "in trust," much more than JPM holds.

Yes..everyone knows that. And being so large, don't you find it interesting that they aren't on that "futures" list? Just how do they go about buying more silver for the trust? Kinda interesting that JPM is the custodian. Just like Fidelity or eTrade might be the custodian of your IRA. The trade is in the name of the custodian, for benefit of you.
You understand now why it is erroneously believed that JPM is the end buyer?

Hmmmmm....inception date of April 2011 and JPM is the custodian. Just a coinkydink to your pretty little chart above?

Well, since you blame stockbrokers telling folks to buy stocks which may drop 70% over the next 7 years ( cough silver cough), then yes, you was wrong.

buy what you like. I like silver.

I do too. But I aint gonna buy no damn conspiracy and manipulation theories.
Knowledge is the enemy of fear
Fully understandable. A financial organization with $29B in fines for 95 banking violations since 2000 would never conspire to manipulate a market.

Yeah, there's a real silver shortage all right! I checked Apmex, they're all sold out of none of the thousands of kinds for sale!

Just thought I'd toss this in here. I am not Warren's biggest fan but sure enjoyed this quote.
So lets think about this. You allege JPM has 140 million ounces of silver Thats about $2 billion worth....or just a small fraction of the fines you say they paid. Another perspective is that JPM has a $1.3 Trillion dollar balance sheet. So silver would represent less than 2 tenths of 1% of their assets. Why would they even bother with such a tiny, tiny market? Heck, Apple, just today, traded over $9 billion worth of stock. Silver just isnt worth messing with. Think about it.

First lets really think hard about their track record with the violations and the fines. Speaks volumes.
Now lets think about their silver motive. Eleven years ago JPM had next to zero ounces of silver. What will they have eleven years from now and what will it be worth if they become a major net long paper player. If they only double their stack and sell at $100 an ounce they're looking at $400 billion. Triple or quadruple their stack? Run the price up to $200 in the futures market?

You will always believe JPM owns physical silver even when presented with evidence otherwise and zero motive.
Knowledge is the enemy of fear
JPM's record of motive speaks for itself, but you can continue to be their public defender.

True. Unfortunately a dearth of willingness perpetuates these premises.
