The following report details changes from 7/3 @ ~11am to 7/5 @ ~10am:

Now those who trade in gold definitely know about the demand-supply theories. Need I say anymore? If the supply continues to shrink, prices are ought to climb up.

Huge inventory additions for 1ozt gold. Looks like sales volume is picking up again.
 
The following report details changes from 7/11 @ ~10am to 7/12 @ ~10am:

  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 706 to 763. Apmex (-8), RCM (+75)
Looks like yesterday's huge addition to Heraeus 1ozt gold was a mistake as Apmex shows inventory back to where it was the day before.

Big inventory additions to 1ozt gold. Sales volume appears low across the board.
 
The following report details changes from 7/18 @ ~10am to 7/19 @ ~10am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 175 to 176.
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2997 to 3248. Pamp Suisse (-24), Pamp YotD (+358), Credit Suisse (-75), Apmex (-5), Perth (-11), generic w/o assay (+5)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 729 to 643. Apmex (-7), Johnson Matthey (-81)
I noticed that the premiums on almost all 1ozt gold products has been reduced slightly to $34.99 (for at least 10 ounce purchases) and is now pretty uniform for all bullion offerings (not the Pamp YotD). Huge sales of JM 100ozt silver over the last 24 hours.

Good sales volume for gold products. Silver inventory boosted with secondary market offerings.
 
It's been seven days since the last update. Sorry about that.

The following report details changes from 7/26 @ ~9am to 8/2 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 166 to 160. Pamp (+2), JM (-2), generic no assay (-6)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2843 to 2583. Pamp Suisse (-102), Pamp YotD (-30), Credit Suisse (-83), Apmex (-29), Perth (-18), generic w/o assay (+7)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 812 to 790. Apmex (-15), JM (-32), RCM (-33), Johnson Matthey secondary market (+48), Englehard secondary market (+12)

With a week since the last update, it's hard to draw any conclusions on sales volume or supply/inventory movements, but it appears that 100ozt silver is being re-supplied more and more solely through secondary market offerings.
 
The following report details changes from 8/2 @ ~9am to 8/3 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 160 to 160.

The following report details changes from 8/7 @ ~9am to 8/10 @ ~10am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 159 to 146. Pamp (-13)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2440 to 2483. Apmex (+125), Pamp Suisse (+45), Pamp YotD (-12), Credit Suisse (-52), Perth (-53), Heraeus (-6)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 822 to 904. RCM (+73), JM (-2), JM "Canada" (+17), Johnson Matthey secondary market (+7), generic secondary market (-15)
Looks like retail is buying gold in earnest again. 10ozt gold saw some good sales volume over the last 3 days and the Apmex 1ozt gold inventory increase is not in stock at the moment (it's available next month).
 
It's been 10 days since the last update.


The following report details changes from 8/10 @ ~10am to 8/20 @ ~10am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 146 to 86. Perth (-54), generic no assay (-6)

  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 904 to 679. Apmex (-12), RCM (-89), JM (-22), Johnson Matthey secondary market (-116), Englehard secondary market (+15), Sunshine (-4)
Looks like retail is buying is picking up again. 10ozt gold and 100ozt silver saw some tremendous sales volume over the last 10 days (even assuming no inventory additions during the interim).
 
The following report details changes from 8/20 @ ~10am to 8/21 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 86 to 73. JM (-5), Pamp (-7), generic no assay (-1)

  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 636 to 559. Apmex (-31), RCM (+3), JM (-18), Sunshine (-3), Englehard secondary market (-24), JM Canada (-6)
Huge one day sales volume in 100ozt silver.
 
The following report details changes from 8/23 @ ~10am to 8/24 @ ~10am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 73 to 108. Pamp (+29), JM (+6)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3024 to 3039. Apmex (-15), Pamp Suisse (-25), Pamp YoTD (-5), Credit Suisse (+67), Perth (-6), generic w/assay (-5), Scotiabank (+7)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 559 to 597. Apmex (-4), RCM (+56), JM (-11), Sunshine (-3), Englehard secondary market (-2), JM secondary market (-2)
 
The following report details changes from 8/24 @ ~10am to 8/26 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 108 to 102. Pamp (-5), generic no assay (-1)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3039 to 2961. Apmex (-2), Pamp Suisse (-18), Pamp YoTD (-9), Credit Suisse (-22), Perth (-25), Sunshine (-4), RCM (+5)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 597 to 577. Apmex (-1), RCM (-4), JM (-3), Sunshine (-3), Englehard secondary market (-2), JM secondary market (-1), generic secondary market (-10)
Premiums on 100ozt silver went up on most brands 10-20 cents.
 
The following report details changes from 8/26 @ ~9am to 8/27 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 102 to 102.
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2961 to 2896. Apmex (-4), Pamp Suisse (-2), Credit Suisse (-25), Perth (-33)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 577 to 546. Apmex (-1), RCM (-1), JM (-15), Sunshine (-11), JM secondary market (-3)
They lowered the premium on Sunshine 100ozt silver. Other brands remain at the new higher levels as reported yesterday.
 
The following report details changes from 8/27 @ ~9am to 8/28 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 102 to 98. Pamp (-2), generic no assay (-2)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2896 to 3859. Apmex (-16), Pamp Suisse (+969), Pamp YotD (-3), Credit Suisse (-29), generic no assay (+44)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 546 to 476. Apmex (-8), RCM (-1), JM (-12), Sunshine (-37), Englehard secondary market (-12)
Looks like people took advantage of the lowered premiums on the Sunshine 100ozt silver. Apmex has now raised the premium on that brand to be in line with the others. Total inventory on 100 ozt silver has only been this low a few times since I started tracking in mid December:

16 Dec = 488
17 Dec = 469
18 Dec = 472

25 May = 464
26 May = 474
27 May = 465
28 May = 465
29 May = 460

In 1ozt gold, there was a massive addition of new bars and slight lowering of the premium ($29.99 over spot for any quantity). Total inventory for 1ozt gold is now the largest it's been since I started tracking (back in mid December).
 
The following report details changes from 8/28 @ ~9am to 8/29 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 98 to 104. Pamp (+4), JM pressed (+2)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3859 to 3526. Apmex (+20), Pamp Suisse (-454), Pamp YotD (-5), Credit Suisse (+83), Perth (+25)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 476 to 489. Apmex (+3), RCM (-1), JM (-2), Englehard secondary market (-2), JM secondary market (+19), JM matching serial #s (-3)
Looks like sales volume on 100ozt silver fell in response to the higher premiums. Biggest inventory addition was once again to a "secondary market" offering.
 
The following report details changes from 8/29 @ ~9am to 8/30 @ ~10am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 104 to 90. Pamp (-14)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3526 to 3343. Pamp Suisse (-204), Pamp YotD (+50), Credit Suisse (-26), Perth (-2)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 489 to 616. Apmex (-6), RCM (-5), JM "refiner direct" (-78), JM "new" (+100), JM "secondary market" (+114)
Either Apmex sold a hell of a lot of 100ozt silver (Johnson Matthey "refiner direct") over the last ~24 hours, or some of it was re-classified as "new" or "secondary market". Either way, Apmex restocked some Johnson Matthey bars.

Additionally, Apmex raised premiums further on the JM "refiner select" bars and lowered premiums on the JM "secondary market" bars.
 
The following report details changes from 8/30 @ ~10am to 8/31 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 90 to 97. Pamp (+7), Perth (+1), JM poured (-2), JM pressed (+1)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3343 to 3305. Apmex (-7), Pamp YotD (-5), Credit Suisse (-12), Perth (-9)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 616 to 565. RCM (-17), JM "refiner direct" (-4), Sunshine (-11), JM "secondary market" (-22), Englehard "secondary market" (+7), JM "matching serial #s" (-4)
The sale on 1ozt Pamp gold is over - they raised the premium in line with the other brands. Strange not to see any change over the inventory of the last report though.

Sales volume on 100ozt silver looked strong.
 
Following a holiday weekend, it's been 3 days since the last update.

The following report details changes from 8/31 @ ~9am to 9/4 @ ~8am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 97 to 90. Pamp (-8), JM pressed (+1)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3305 to 3179. Apmex (-13), Pamp (-56), Pamp YotD (-11), Credit Suisse (-25), Perth (-7), Sunshine (-6), Heraeus (-5), Argor-Heraeus (-6), Scotiabank (-3), generic no assay (-4)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 565 to 396. Apmex (+3), RCM (-55), JM "refiner direct" (-31), JM "new" (-41), JM "secondary market" (-64), Englehard "secondary market" (+12), generic seconday market (+5)
This is the lowest inventory total for 100ozt silver that I've seen since I started tracking last December. They also raised the premium on 100ozt silver for the Apmex and Sunshine bars.
 
The following report details changes from 9/4 @ ~8am to 9/5 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 90 to 86. Pamp (+4), JM poured (-5), JM pressed (-2), generic no assay (-1)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3179 to 3018. Apmex (-3), Pamp (+31), Pamp YotD (-5), Credit Suisse (-16), Perth (-155), generic no assay (-13)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 396 to 487. Apmex (-14), RCM (+162), JM "new" (-2), JM "secondary market" (-48), Englehard "secondary market" (-4)
Sales volume on 100ozt silver continues to be strong. Apmex lists a big increase for RCM 100ozt silver bars, but they aren't available until 9/14. Taking that into account, they actually only have 325 of the 100ozt silver bars in stock currently.
 
The following report details changes from 9/5 @ ~9am to 9/6 @ ~8am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 86 to 86.
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3018 to 2860. Apmex (-6), Pamp (-21), Pamp YotD (-3), Credit Suisse (-26), Perth (-96), generic no assay (-5)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 487 to 415. Apmex (-8), RCM (-22), JM "refiner direct" (-3), JM "new" (-38)
Sales volume on 100ozt silver continues to be strong. Inventory for 100ozt silver bars actually on hand (discounting the RCM bars not actually in stock at the moment) is down to 257! Apmex raised premiums on a slew of the 100ozt silver bars (incl. RCM and various JM offerings).
 
The following report details changes from 9/6 @ ~8am to 9/7 @ ~8am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 86 to 83. Pamp (-7), JM "poured" (+4)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2860 to 3451. Apmex (+158), Pamp (+41), Pamp YotD (-3), Credit Suisse (+168), Perth (+189), generic no assay (+40)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 415 to 414. Apmex (-4), RCM (-1), JM "refiner direct" (-1), JM "new" (-2), generic secondary market (-1), JM secondary market (+2), Englehard secondary market (+4), Englehard "struck" (+3), JM "Canada" (+2)
Sales volume on 100ozt silver was muted and it appears that some folks sold silver back to Apmex in the last 24 hours. Looks to me like folks were anticipating market reaction for the unemployment report/numbers released today. Large inventory re-stocking in 1ozt gold.
 
It's been 3 days since the last update.

The following report details changes from 9/7 @ ~8am to 9/10 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 83 to 98. Pamp (+17), Perth (-2)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 3451 to 3355. Apmex (-34), Pamp (-96), Pamp YotD (-7), Credit Suisse (-41), Perth (+38), Sunshine (-6), generic no assay (+19)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 414 to 345. Apmex (-5), RCM (-31), JM "refiner direct" (-4), JM "new" (-13), Sunshine (-7), generic secondary market (-2 - sold out), JM secondary market (-2 - sold out), Englehard secondary market (-2), JM "Canada" (-3), RCM "old style" (-2)
Sales volume on 100ozt silver was decent over the weekend. 345 bars in stock is the lowest I've seen since I've been watching (since last December). If you discount the RCM bars which aren't actually in stock (shipping Sept. 14), they only have 219 bars in stock.
