Treasury Reduces Foreign Silver Price This Month
The Treasury cut its foreign silver price from 38 to 20 percent per ounce. Foreign silver purchases resume at the new level for the first time since last Friday. The price compares with the London spot at 36.73. The small differential makes shipment from London to New York uneconomical. Secretary Morgenthau did not consider curtailing purchases, but experts warn continued lowering could curb demand.
