The great asx silver stock shortage, page-56

Here's a worrying issue. If Russia destroys underwater communications, which facilitates $10 Trillion of trade per day, the COMEX could declare a Force Majeure and nullify all options/futures short contracts for Silver. The price of Silver could jump to $100 in $12 daily increments, but my Call Options and CFDs would not pay out. Of course, the banks doing the extreme shorting would survive in this scenario.

Looking for leverage, I wonder how CFD providers would treat silver stocks - keep trading as usual?
