    Deal" 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.
    As a business owner for 31 years and a regular observer of Kitco and Kitcosilver
    for 3 years, the spot price of silver certainly does not seem to respond to normal market
    forces. All to often its price moved in sync with that of gold with the price of both
    remarkably responsive to clock timing.. For years, we have suspected market
    manipulation; we whole heartedly commend your opening an investigation into the
    regulation of buying/selling practices of this commodity.
