Brink's Adjusts 26,000 oz of Silver Out of Registered, 1.2M oz of Registered Inventories Remain Unavail for Delivery

Brink's had a large adjustment of nearly 26,000 ounces of silver out of registered vaults and into eligible vaults, and HSBC had a massive withdrawal from eligible vaults to report from Monday's COMEX silver warehouse action.
Perhaps even bigger news is that over 1.2 million ounces of registered silver inventories remain unavailable for delivery due to the MF Global fiasco (because the silver has already been snatched by JPM who moved to make a lien on ALL of MF Global's assets within 8 hours of the bankruptcy announcement??)
