Stop Predatory Short Selling

[MarcusA]

We know what we are suffering from - and it is not a lack of gold in the ground.

Out out practical (not simply theoretical) curiosity:
What the heck happend in 2012 and made them remove rules that restricted this awful short selling? Who was behind this?

We need to get back to fair markets.

JP MORGAN. Everyone know this. JP MORGAN is the biggest gold/silver naked short in the market.

Thanks, but I am not sure, if that is what I asked for. I asked "what happened"? So, how did JP M did this? By phonening the Gov. or sending them the phrasing of the new regulations removing the previous restrictions that prevented short sellings? Unfortunatley, this is a serious question. (In Europe it happens all the time that companies write the laws, literaly,  and the send the

watch the video. The problem is way more serious in Canada and they managed to prove to the government that the system did not do what the government had intended it to do. Short selling itself is a good thing, not predatory shorts and naked shorts. The government need to do something about it.

3 words, Liquidity, liquidity and liquidity. You need a market, to make any money. A coin with only one side isn't oft flipped.... The only reason people don't like shorting, is because like the coin, somebody wins and somebody loses. Nobody likes heads when they stake up tails.

I thought I'd give you the most recent data on the derivatives view of this, from the end of Q1 2021 from the U. S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Report on Banking Derivatives. https://www.occ.gov/publications-and-resources/publications/quarterly-report-on-bank-trading-and-derivatives-activities/files/pub-derivatives-quarterly-qtr1-2021.pdf On page 44 it shows that JPM has $35

Your posts are always greatthanks. You mentioned Goldman having 0 derivatives and that being a red flag. Im sure its speculation, but could it be because of the new leveraged laws and reclassification of gold due to Basel 3. Would Goldman show any derivative percentages if they owned physical gold?

Good point.  Goldman could show zero derivatives and own a tankfull of physical gold.  The red flag would be that Goldman has physical (or none at all) and the other banks have paper.
