Does supply/demand as seen in production/consumption figures matter as much as we think?

As shown below the average DAILY silver volume cleared in the LBMA alone is on the order of 270 million ounces. If we look at that as an annualized figure.....Mr. Buffet's purchase does not appear to be significant in terms of volume.

Any comments?


LONDON, July 14 (Reuters) - The average daily turnover of
gold cleared through London fell slightly in June to 32.2
million ounces per day from 32.4 in May, according to figures

In value terms the daily average was also lower at $11.0
billion, from $11.1 billion in May. It was the lowest average

The average daily silver volume cleared in June rose sharply
to 270.5 million ounces from 236.6 million in May, while the
average daily value cleared rose to $1.3 billion from $1.1
billion in May.

The average number of transfers in June for gold was 1,105
compared with 1,154 in May. There were 513 silver transfers
on average up from 455 in May.
