Matter of cash flow for new inventory. Worldwide mint products continuously being released.

Ain't it funny how they only lose coins?

Yes...bad news in envelopes always finds it's way to my mailbox, but good news in bubble mailers always finds it's way between the seat of the mail truck.

Must be a sign
<< <i>Good price. Wonder if they think the price is going down further and they want to unload some inventory >>
I don't get it. How do people who invest in precious metals not know how these dealers work? The big dealers are fully hedged. It doesn't matter what the price does. Up or down the dealer makes his money on the spread. If silver goes up $10 or down $10 tomorrow the dealer doesn't make or lose any money.

I find it hard to believe that these large precious metals dealers are not doing a bit of speculating along side their hedging activities. Just look at the banking industry and the losses they suffered from betting/speculating on interest rate movements when they were telling their shareholders they were only hedging. I may be ignorant or naïve, but I don't believe these large precious metals dealers are not betting on price movements as well when a clear indicator tells them the market is falling.
Ask almost anyone who has worked in the futures market and they will tell you that the big boys are hedging and speculating on a daily basis.
I agree that a true hedger is making money on the spread, I just question if these firms are as pure as you think they are. Here is an example of what I am talking about:
Barings Bank
So my question to you is, how do people who invest in precious metals not know how these dealers work?

It's like comparing apples to oranges comparing investment banks to online pm retailers but perhaps you have a point. Although I don't know why the management for these companies would risk their money on speculation when selling their hedged inventory is a sure money maker even with the thin margins.
I don't think Tulving was fully hedged
<< <i>I don't think Tulving was fully hedged >>
Wasn't Tulving a convicted criminal 25 years ago? Why would anybody do business with that guy? I'm talking about reputable business.
<< <i>.....I'm talking about reputable business. >>
I heard about one of those on the History Channel.
<< <i>I don't think Tulving was fully hedged >>
More likely he was fully wedged; caught so tight between a rock and a hard spot that there was no escape.

Good for stackers and flippers if one can afford to hold for awhile.

The Mint keeps chittin em out as fast as they can and I think the demand is waning for them. Sometimes they gotta provide incentive/s to get em sold.
