RE:RE:Silver is catching a nice bidSure, trading is allowed. The problem here is that this "trading" occurring on the COMEX is basically naked shorting. Something like 2 billion ounces of silver traded on Tuesday when they took the price down 15%. How can almost 3 years' worth of mine supply trade in one day?!
Seriously, ask yourself that question. The paper price of silve is FAKE. The COMEX trades paper silver, not real silver.
The reason they want to keep a lid on silver is because it is the achille's heel of our financial system. The market is SO shallow that if it gets out of control (i. e. price explosion) it will drag gold with it thus undermining confidence in the USD, bond, etc. The paper money powers will throw everything, including the kitchen sink, at the metals in an attempt to slow their rise.
In the end, true money always trumps fake money. Be patient......
