JPMorgan is more than just a big bankster. It holds the record for highest silver fines (spoofing and the like), to the tune of a $Billion. No matter, they steal much much more than that, so can easily afford it.
Now, they silently move their NYC gold ops to Singapore, out of the reach of US (aka, Trump) investigators.
I'm gonna be at the edge of my chair tomorrow with the market opening (Silver futures opens tonight at 6 PM, if they can still cool their operations).
One does not make a move like that without a lot of planning.
That said, I imagine the market moves towards the money.
The US Markets are all about debt; just look how it responds to whisper about rate cuts. It tells you all you need to know about the US economy.

As long as it goes up it’s fabulous. The minute it stops going up, everyone cries foul
Too funny.

I searched using Chat GPT and here is their answer:
“There are recent stories about Singapore’s ambition to become a major gold/precious-metals hub and about growing demand/trading activity in Asia. But none of those stories provide evidence that JPMorgan has relocated its gold desk to Singapore. So the claim — as something ‘recent and confirmed’ — remains unsupported by credible sources.“
So, I would be skeptical about this story.
JPMorgan’s gold traders cheated other market players for years by “spoofing trades” or manipulating the price of precious metals to boost their profits, a former employee testified to a Chicago federal jury Tuesday.“Our job was to do whatever it takes to make money,” former trader John Edmonds said in a court case accusing three of his former colleagues of committing systematic fraud. “Everyone at the time did it on the desk and it worked.”
JPMorgan’s former global head of the precious metals trading desk Michael Nowak, precious metal trader Gregg Smith and hedge fund salesman Jeffrey Ruffo have been charged by the Justice Department with racketing and conspiracy charges and are now on trial for the crimes.

And convictions....
Nowak was convicted on 13 other charges including fraud, spoofing and attempted market manipulation, and Smith was convicted on 11 charges. Ruffo, who was only charged with racketeering and conspiracy, was acquitted of both. All three men had pleaded not guilty.

Asians have no faith in crypto or most paper currencies. They put whatever surplus funds they have into personally held gold and silver.It drives their governments crazy because it takes capital out of the economy.Either banks involve themselves in gold and silver or their profits decline. They can’t make high interest loans if people don’t keep their savings as cash on deposit in the bank. Better business for the bank to be a defacto gold and silver broker than being a moribund loan maker.
Maybe they took an expensive junket to have a meeting, business as usual.
“J.P. Morgan Research estimated gold to exceed $2,500/oz by the end of 2024, and its current predictions forecast that gold will reach $2,600/oz in 2025.”

“China is also now the largest gold producing nation in the world”
These are my notes from the youtube:
- 50+ traders and their families were told to move to Singapore in just a few days.
- JPM last week sold 4 billion worth of physical gold, which was the biggest physical delivery since 2008
- Singapore has no gold import tarrifs
- JPM’s private bank is located in Singapore
- BRICs governments have sold 93B in US treasuries last week
Smart money knows things before the people do. Something is up, maybe an actual audit of Ft Knox? Or, more likely, they are escaping possible fraud charges. JPM has been fined a lot in the past for shenanigans.
The disruption stopped trading in major currency pairs on CME’s EBS platform, as well as benchmark futures for West Texas Intermediate crude , Nasdaq 100 , Nikkei , palm oil and gold , according to LSEG data.

Global futures reopen after exchange operator CME suffers multi-hour disruption
The stock market is fleet NYC and the election of a communist.
Most FINRA Series 3 traders in Singapore would be my guess.
The stock market is fleet NYC after the election of a communist.

Scams related to J.P. Morgan can involve phishing attempts, investment scams, recruitment fraud, or a more elaborate fraud like the one where a company was sold based on misrepresented data. Scammers may impersonate J.P. Morgan representatives via email or phone to request personal information, offer fake investments, or send fake job offers. There have also been instances where customers took advantage of glitches to commit fraud, leading to legal action from the bank.
Common types of scams
Phishing scams: Scammers send fake emails that look like they’re from J.P. Morgan, often asking you to click a link or provide personal information to “verify” your account.
Investment scams: Impersonators may contact you by phone or email, claiming to be from J.P. Morgan Asset Management, and pressure you to invest in bogus funds with official-sounding names.
Recruitment scams: Fraudsters may create fake job postings or offer letters, inviting you to fake interviews and asking for money or sensitive personal information.
Corporate fraud: A high-profile case involved the founder of a company, Charlie Javice, who defrauded J.P. Morgan during an acquisition by providing a fake customer count to inflate her company’s value. She was found guilty of multiple fraud charges in 2025, according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners.
ATM glitch fraud: Some customers exploited a temporary ATM glitch that allowed them to deposit fraudulent checks and immediately withdraw large sums of money. J.P. Morgan has taken legal action against these individuals.
