DEAR MR. GENSLER AND OTHER BOARD MEMBERS,
I AM WRITING TO REGISTER MY DISMAY AT THE RECENT ALLEGATIONS OF MANIPULATION IN THE SILVER FUTURES MARKET. IF THESE ALLEGATIONS ARE TRUE, AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE,
IT STRIKES AT THE VERY ROOT OF TRUSTING OUR FINANCIAL MARKETS. WITHOUT COMPLETE CONFIDENCE IN THE" HONEST WORKINGS" OF THIS MARKET AS WELL AS OTHERS, THE PROSPECT OF MAKING PROPER INVESTMENTS DECISIONS IS IMPOSSIBLE. WHY WOULD I WANT TO "PLAY THIS GAME" IF THE RULES ARE STACKED AGAINST ME AND CHANGE AT THE WHIM OF BIG PLAYERS WHO CONTROL THESE MARKETS. THIS IS NOT THE COUNTRY I HAVE GROWN UP IN. I AM HIGHLY DISAAPOINTED IN THE WAY THINGS HAVE TRANSPIRED IN OUR FINANCIAL SYSTEM. I IMPLORE TO CORRECT THIS "ABOMINATION", WHICH YOU HAVE THE POWER TO DO SO, AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
THANK-YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING IN THIS MATTER.
SINCERELY,
JOSEPH JAEGER
