re: the silver deficit, nickoo Hmmm .....would not allay my concerns re the security of your holding.
In 'normal' times probably not an issue but given the likelyhood that you (may) have purchased with a view to the "sky falling" scenario .......?
Statement does not confirm a PHYSICAL holding - if you,me,nickoo and my aunties bridge club wanted delivery when/if it all comes tumbling down would/could they supply.
Fine words - but you are still holding paper.
In a vault, with your name stamped on it or buried out by the clothesline - that is assurance.
(somebody wrote recently that a friend had his silver bar wrapped in a sock and used as a doorstop ....hehe)

Just chipping in guys,
