    Metals Hearing
    Position limits
    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 and gold of no more than 1000 contracts. Please restrict any hedging
    exemptions from those limits to legitimate hedgers. Please stop the levels of concentration in COMEX silver and
    gold futures that have been experienced over the past few years on the short side of the market as it serves no
    purpose other than to the institutions selling the paper and presents great risk to markets and the public in
    general.
    Sincerely, Patrick Gentry
