    Metals Hearing
    CTFC regulation of metals markets
    I followed the recent CFTC hearings on precious metals markets with great
    interest. Based on much of the testimony presented, my suspicions regarding
    the manipulation of these markets, mainly by a few large banks, have been
    more than amply confirmed. As I read the law, such manipulation is patently
    illegal. As a small investor I expect our government to ensure that markets
    are free and fair. This has obviously not been the case. I hope you will
    establish and enforce strict position limits in the precious metals markets.
    This is a reform that much needed and long overdue.
    Sincerely, Peter T. Holland
