Sources & methodology
This tool is a directory of links to third-party official sources. It does not scrape, automatically download, cache, reproduce, transform, calculate from, or maintain a historical database of CME Group, LBMA or SHFE inventory figures. All figures remain on the publishers’ own websites. Silver Dominion is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by CME Group, COMEX, LBMA or SHFE. Third-party terms and page availability may change.
Daily and monthly labels describe each publisher’s reporting schedule. Check the date, units and definitions in the original report before comparing figures.
Track Global Gold and Silver Inventories
The Gold & Silver Inventory Tracker provides direct access to official precious metals inventory reports from CME Group (COMEX), the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA), and the Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE).
Explore COMEX registered and eligible stocks, London vault holdings, and Shanghai warehouse warrants. Each link opens the original publisher’s report, where you can verify reporting dates, units, definitions, and revisions.
Silver Dominion does not reproduce or maintain third-party inventory figures.

Understanding COMEX, LBMA and SHFE Inventories
Major precious metals markets publish different types of inventory data. Understanding these differences is essential when comparing gold and silver holdings.
COMEX Gold and Silver Stocks
CME Group reports metal held in approved COMEX depositories under two classifications:
- Registered: Metal meeting exchange requirements with an issued warrant, making it available for futures delivery.
- Eligible: Metal meeting exchange specifications but without an issued warrant. Owners may choose to register it when applicable requirements are satisfied.
Neither category represents all gold or silver held in the United States.
LBMA London Vault Holdings
The LBMA publishes monthly aggregate gold and silver holdings in participating London vaults. Its gold figures also include holdings at the Bank of England.
Unlike COMEX, these reports do not distinguish between registered and eligible stocks.
Shanghai Futures Exchange Inventories
SHFE publishes official warehouse-warrant data for gold and silver. These figures cover metal within the exchange’s reporting system, not China’s entire precious metals supply.
The tracker links directly to SHFE Daily Warrant reports, allowing visitors to check specific metals and reporting dates.
Why Gold and Silver Inventories Matter
Inventory reports provide insight into physical metal held within major exchanges, warehouses, and vaulting systems.
Changes in reported holdings may reflect deliveries, withdrawals, investor demand, industrial consumption, or transfers between storage locations.
However, no single inventory report represents total global gold or silver supply. COMEX, LBMA, and SHFE follow different reporting methods, schedules, and inventory definitions.
Falling inventories do not automatically predict rising prices, just as increasing stocks do not necessarily indicate weaker demand.
Inventory trends become more useful when considered alongside mine production, recycling, industrial consumption, investment flows, and futures positioning.
Official Sources and Physical Market Analysis
Silver Dominion links directly to original CME Group, LBMA, and SHFE publications rather than copying or maintaining their inventory datasets.
The tracker does not scrape, automatically download, cache, transform, or build historical databases from these third-party reports. Publication terms, reporting methods, and availability may change.

Gold & Silver Inventory FAQ
What does the Gold & Silver Inventory Tracker show?
The tool provides direct links to official gold and silver inventory publications for COMEX, London, and Shanghai.
What is COMEX Registered inventory?
Registered inventory is metal held in a COMEX-approved depository that meets the relevant exchange requirements and has a warrant issued against it. This makes the metal available for delivery against futures contracts.
What is the difference between Registered and Eligible metal?
Both categories meet applicable COMEX specifications. Registered metal has a warrant issued, while Eligible metal does not currently have a warrant. Eligible inventory should therefore not automatically be treated as available for delivery.
What are LBMA London vault holdings?
LBMA publishes aggregate monthly data for gold and silver held in participating London vaults. These holdings are different from COMEX inventory categories and should not be compared without considering the definitions used by each publisher.
What are SHFE warehouse warrants?
SHFE warehouse-warrant reports cover metal represented by warrants within the exchange’s reporting system. They provide information about Shanghai exchange inventories but are not directly equivalent to COMEX or London vault holdings.
Does falling inventory mean that gold or silver prices will rise?
Not necessarily. Inventory movements alone do not determine price direction. Prices are also influenced by investment flows, currencies, interest rates, industrial demand, mine supply, recycling, futures positioning, liquidity, and wider economic conditions.
How often are the reports updated?
The publication schedule depends on the source. CME Group reports are generally published more frequently, LBMA vault data is published monthly, and SHFE follows its own exchange reporting calendar. Always verify the latest date directly on the publisher’s website.
