    Metals Hearing
    Manipulation in Silver
    Dear Sir;
    Thank for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits for precious metals.
    Please establish a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of no more than 1500 contracts.
    Please restrict any hedging exemptions from those limits 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.
    I am a bit distressed that, up until the 25th of March when the truth was confirmed, a few
    Banking organizations can bully this market to their, and only their, advantage. This
    "fraud"
    must not only be stopped NOW but the people involved should be prosecuted! No more talk
    about the
    "too big to
    fail" or
    "too big to be prosecuted".
    It's past time to start doing the
    "right thing". Makes you wonder how many bodies these people stepped on to get so
    Big and apparently, bullet proof from accountability. Good grief!!!
    Sincerely,
