Re: Position Limits for Precious Metals Market
Dear Gentlemen:
Thank you 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
~
1,500
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 sale of the market.
