CFTC and CME prove once again why you should be buying silver

hold your silver . Buy if you possibly can..
Don't drink the cool aid coz happy days for silver holders are getting closer , Gold dropped $25, Apmex dropped their price by $10, and the silver drop hasn't been reflected in their prices.



I just checked out Ebay, 1oz SilverTowne bar sold for $37 + $1.75 shipping.JPMorgan and the Fed don't intimidate me at all. Margin requirements don't affect me at all since I own no financial paper. Physical gold and silver only. The longer they manipulate, the more time I have to buy physical cheap. Bring it on JP!This second margin requirement increase so soon after the last one smells of desperation by the bankers. As the paper and physical prices diverge the paper loses credibility and they start to look not just desperate, but silly as well. Desperate and silly is hardly the image that the masters of the universe want to cultivate.The CFTC is a disgrace. Ol' Bart Chilton assured me today that "it aint' over" and he's still trying. I hope he's right. Either way it's going to end badly for the paper holders.

How much physical you hold is all that matters
The CFTC is a digrace. Ol' Bart Chilton assured me today that "it aint' over" and he's still trying. I hope he's right. Either way it's going to end badly for the paper holders.

CFTC admits one Trader is SHORT 23% of the silver contracts - possible position limits ahead.

CFTC admits one Trader is SHORT 23% of the silver contracts - possible position limits ahead.



they are shorting so much to keep the price supressed - and that the tax payer will bail out any losses.these guys are so stupid. limiting positions would only make the markets less efficient. it would produce worse liquidity and greater price swings with worse spreads. complete crap and they should know it. these guys are a disgrace. regardless of who holds what eventually market forces will play out no matter how large ur holdings.

if shorts were settled with real commodities, and not cash, the markets would go to their natural spreads, and natural prices.
the allowance of cash settlement for shorts, while convenient, is what makes for large speculation.
a market should exist only for those that deal in what the market is offering. if you dont mine or sell gold, and cant deliver if you short it - why the hell are you allowed to do so - thats the problem in my opinion.

you can settle the short sale of silver with cowtails and shoelaces and the CFTC will probably ignore it. I have no idea why they even exist. Sorry about the exaggeration, but i can't express what a joke this agency is.
Goody for Americans this agency is also gonna regulate the carbon credit markets! not suprising, we can secure that not with worthless cash, but cow farts. A clearinghouse would be nice,- that's common sense but what's the point if there's "communication issues"?

James Turk and David Morgan on the silver price and CFTC

In this timely video, David Morgan of Silver-Investor.com and James Turk discuss current high silver prices and the CFTC's investigation. Recorded on November 6, 2010.



A massive increase in short position of non-US banks has increased almost 1000% from 614 contracts in July to 6,329 contracts in December + 5,715. This offset the decline in the short position of the US banks over the same period which has reduced from 31,803 contracts to 26,332 contracts (delta -5,471 contracts). Which non-US bank(s) has increased its short position? What is relationship to the US Bank mega-shorts, JPMorgan and HSBC? Adrian Douglas I think we have seen the asian physical bulls (sovereign or not) take control of the market for the most part. Silver has shaken a a bit of it's outright correlation with gold while the GSR is in a major downtrend. QE2 will likely be $1.5 trillion + not including any swaps.  QE3 has been mentioned already.

There is no stopping the technical trend without a fundamental change, not considering volatile short term price movement.

Thank you Jim and Thank you David. All the Best.

Andrew Maguire whistleblower - The Biggest Silver Market Manipulation Story Disclosed

THE LARGEST FRAUD IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD 5 TRILLION DOLLARS STOLEN IN THE GOLD MARKET!!!!!!
Andrew Maguire (Whistleblower) exposes Comex silver manipulation.

Bill Murphy, Chairman of the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee delivers his testimony about gold price suppression to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission on 3/25/10.

For any long term purchaser of silver, there is no agency more important than the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or the CFTC. The CFTC is charged with ensuring that the futures markets are trading fairly at all times and investigating manipulative trades and fraud within the trading system. Now more than ever, the CFTC is critically important in investigating banks like JP Morgan and their roles in manipulating market orders.



Whistle Blowing on Futures Manipulation



At the center of the investigation into manipulation is Andrew Maguire, who in November 2009 contacted the CFTC to expose front-line JP Morgan traders for market manipulation. Maguire claims that he had personally spoken to several JP Morgan futures traders, who alleged the firm manipulates the silver market and makes billions of dollars annually by pushing the market in its favor.



This comes with little surprise to those watching the silver market, as for years on end, the number of shorts in the market has long outpaced the amount of silver that is believed to have ever been mined. This type of naked shorting allows firms like JP Morgan and others to flood the market with silver contracts and drive down the price, allowing profits to be pocketed on derivative-style bets made on other “off the book” markets where no physical metals are traded.



In addition, firms engaged in this activity can make a fortune in stocks, selling off shares of miners as the price of silver dips.
