    Metals Hearing
    To whom it may concern;
    I am grateful for the opportunity to comment in response to the hearing on position limits for
    precious metals. I fully support the CFTC in setting reasonable position limits that would prevent
    excessive speculation and concentration. It has been proposed that speculative position limits be
    set at 1500 contracts for Comex silver. I fully support this level, and deem it appropriate and
    necessary. The CFTC should restrict any hedging exemptions from those limits to legitimate
    hedgers. The levels of short side concentration in COMEX silver futures over the past few years has
    been tremendous. Please take action immediately. If there has been evidence of manipulation in
    the past, please punish responsible parties appropriately. I fully support Chairman Genslerand the
    rest of the commission in seeking international (LBMA specifically) cooperation in terms of position
    limit enforcement.
    Sincerely,
    Ty Bennett
