    Metals Hearing
    Position Limits
    Dear Sirs:
    This is by way of comment on the issue of position limits for precious metals, which was the subject of your March 25 public
    meeting.
    I believe (1) that the Commission should establish a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of no more than 1500
    contracts, (2) that any hedging exemptions from those limits should be restricted to legitimate hedgers, and (3) that the
    Commission should put a stop once and for all to the past and current levels of concentration on the short side of the market
    in COMEX silver futures.
    Sincerely,
    Richard Sypher
    Oldsmar, Florida
