yes, it could mean that prices will fall later, if the imbalance is expected to be temporary, like a storm in the gulf of mexico causing an increase in the price of oil or gasoline. but in the case of silver, it is just one more piece of evidence that the manipulation is starting to unravel. the supply of physical bullion is the weakness in the price suppression scheme.

if and when it becomes apparent that the comex does not have enough silver to satisfy even a small amount of investor demand, and these paper promises have no backing, i expect prices will rise all across the board.
