COMEX Feb-2014 Gold Contract Delivery: 746 contracts to go - Weekly Update

5,920 Feb-2014 contracts filed for delivery on first notice day January 31st.  As of last Friday, 3,286 have been settled and 1,888 have been 'lost' to delivery.  The trend looks very similar to the last major delivery contract month of Dec-13.  
















Refer to my post from last week for more commentary and definitions.

Last week, Deutsche Bank joined JPM and Bank of Nova Scotia as major issuers.  Together they have issued 91% of the settlements this month.  HSBC and Barclays have stopped (taken ownership) of 89%.
