    Metals Hearing
    Proposed Federal Speculative Position
    David Stawick, Secretary, Commodity Futures Trading Commission
    Dear Sir:
    Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits for precious metals. I advocate
    for the establishment of a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of no more than 1500 contracts.
    Please restrict any hedging exemptions from those limits as well to legitimate hedgers. Please stop the
    levels of concentration in COMEX silver futures that have been experienced over the past few years on
    the short side of the market.
    Thank you for all your efforts to improve the integrity of our markets.
    Sincerely,
    Dr. Philip J Stewart
