The Silver Crash - caused by manipulation not The Market

Silver has declined significantly this week in response to equity requirement hikes in commodities margin accounts. This has triggered a massive margin call wave resulting in heavy liquidations. The tightening of trading credit will effectively quell inflation, even in the face of a rising debt limit and possible default on US bonds, and may revitalize the economy.They just raised the margin on silver...that tell me that they are afraid of silver. It tells me that silver is good, but physical. Asia do not buy the paper fraud they are accumulating physical, Westerners' do the same thing!!!!!! The CME was told by the Us Government to do what they did to break the back of the precious metals market , now you have to put up five times as much money as you did 9 days ago and that's not true for the short-side of the market , those shorting have to put two times ...what happened is unprecedented and illegal..

Lindsey Williams : COMEX Massive silver shortages and collapse of EURO and USD in 2011

Lindsey Williams : COMEX Massive silver shortages and collapse of EURO and USD in 2011 .Since this recent desperate move of changing margin requirements several times I wonder how much time is left to default? Any opinions? I feel it is this year 2011. This webbot thing is kind of interesting.


A recent interview with Lindsey Williams on Alex Jones has him mentioning that some rich folks did get wind of the silver leveraged position of the COMEX and started withdrawing silver by the millions of ounces, supporting the web bots analysis. At the silver prices and with backwardation of the spot price, it won't be long before the COMEX goes bust and the paper and physical silver prices diverge.

There is less than one quarter of an ounce silver per capita above ground

The COMEX is manipulating the silver Market ,The volatility in silver market was created by the combination of the bubble forming and the CME decision to increase the margins , The CME increased margins 5 times! this is forcing investors to sell , they raised margin requirements from $9000 to $21000 in five days ! there is no small investor that can handle that so they are all wiped out ,Guys like George Soros and Carlos Slim are dumping paper, not real. They never had any to begin with....Its all just blips on a screen and some day soon, we will hold the worlds real wealth....


The total amount of above ground silver on a per capita basis is less than one quarter of an ounce per person , if this is not a shortage than what is it ?????

High Frequency Trading in the Silver Market - Unsustainable! CNBC 5/5/2011

High Frequency Trading in the silver market .The paper games days are numbered too fast and it's just unsustainable for the markets to even control



Separating speculation from supply and demand, with Daniel Fisher, MBF Trading. . Daniel Fisher : this is so fast and so ridiculous, it's -- i can't even fathom these markets because when you watch silver move during the day, even if you're on the right side of the trade, the speed at which it's going on, it's unfathomable. i mean, the truth is these moves down, the corrections are all so overexaggerated by all the high frequency trading that ifru just slowed down we wouldn't see oil down 10 bucks today, wouldn't see brent trading down, you know, down below. Daniel, it's joe. when you talk about high frequently trading in the commodities space, people know about high frequency trading and stocks. how does it work in the futures mark? i mean, it's a similar deal. you have computers that are running each other in essentially. bidding and offering at the same time and they know when the large orders are coming so when you see a big sale in oil coming in, 100 lots, computers know they are coming and they essentially front run the order, and they front run each other and just run each other in. it's too fast and it's just unsustainable for the markets to even control.

iShares Silver Trust (SLV) scam exposed




GET PHYSICAL iShares Silver Trust (SLV) scam exposed . BUY PHYSICAL ONLY ! Never trust banks with your physical metal.I knew this about the SLV (and GLD) but everyone should know this info!The GLD and SLV are insurance policies securing a lifeboat on the Titanic, but if she hits an iceberg then the insurance becomes payable in cash. Beautiful.To trust a banker is like trusting the devil. Don't cry when you get burned. Owning physical is the only way to go now. A year or two ago they changed the wording from "the trust holds silver" to "The trust is EXPECTED TO hold silver.  Why the change?! It's almost like, you go to the vaults, and lo and behold they have aluminum bars (not silver) and the custodian and the trustee both said, "Well, gee, we EXPECTED them to be silver. Oh well. Too bad for you ... we put it in the prospectus, so don't say we didn't warn you

Dont Panic, Buy and Hold Physical Silver!!

Don't Panic, Buy and Hold Physical Silver !!

The manipulation in the silver market right know this is crazy. The price dropped almost 4 dollars in under 7 hours I have been watching the price since I got home from work about 3. The price went from 44. 21 to 40.60 in under 7 hours, the made 4 heavy drops hitting the 40.60 mark. We had 44.21 down to 42.52 from there down to 41.38 another big drop to 40.76 bottoming out at 40.60. Now it bounced around a little in between but sank fast. After it hit 40.76 it struggled back up to 41.83 before it bottomed at the 40.60 mark an hour and a half later I HAVE TANGIBLE PYHSICAL SILVER. Just look outside the scenarios that have been laid out by the major news outlets and paper shoppers and see for yourself what is really going on with silver. Go on the major online dealers websites and which ones you go to I don't not care you will see the truth about silver it is extremely hard to obtain physical right now. The U.S. mint is not currently making silver eagles, the major dealers and local dealers all have delays on eagles and a lot of other bars and rounds have a wait or in a sense backorder on eagles and one oz.

Bob Chapman explains how the Silver Market is manipulated

Bob Chapman the FED is owned by private banks some of them are foreign , and the government is controlled by the banks that own the FED , they want you to leave the physical market and go to the traditional paper market and SLV , GLD ....



Bob Chapman : I happy that our government is knocking the price of silver down ...they ( the brokers ) are discouraging investments other than in SLV and GLD and of course in commodities and that's because it's leveraged and they make more commissions , and they don't care whether SLV and GLD go bankrupt or not . The government is controlled by the owners of the FED , they want to get people back to the traditional paper market ....last week silver margins were increased by the CME twice by twenty percent today they raised them again by another thirty percent , which is a psychological factor in this market because most of the people in the market are big hitters , they don't buy three of five contracts they buy three hundreds or five hundreds or three thousands or five thousands that's the kind of market this is ....the CME owns the COMEX and so they are the ones who make the rules and these rules come from the treasury department and of course these people in the exchanges very well know that ..it's easy to identify what they are doing if you've been in the brokerage business for 29 years like I was says Bob Chapman of the International Forecaster , the FED is owned by banks Europeans as well as Americans the biggest share holder is JP Morgan Chase followed by City Group and Goldman Sachs and a host of others and some of them are foreigners , the government is controlled by the owners of the FED they control the treasury

Peter Schiff : now a good time to buy Silver

Peter Schiff : now it's a good time to buy Silver



Peter Schiff :...I would say that the moves over the last couple of weeks have been largely driven by speculators but overall the entire bull market NO , i mean it's driven by the fundamentals , Silver is not rising because there are speculators it's because silver is rising that's why there are speculators they are attracted to the bull market but they are not causing it , but certainly at a certain point speculators will add a volatility , we had a huge move up before this correction , it's hardly crashing I mean silver is at $40 dollars an ounce it's right back to its trend line , I think it's a good buy right now not only for long term holders like me , if you are a short term trader if you are fast money guy I do not think there is a lot left to this correction i think there is more upside now just to re catch the fifty level .....

Peter Schiff : the vast majority of the correction is now over in the silver market

Peter Schiff : now there is more upside potential than downside risk in the silver market ,  the vast majority of the correction is over


Peter Schiff : ...nothing goes up on a straight line silver had certainly gone ahead of itself the gold silver ratio was way in silver's favor in a very short period of time , so it makes sense that we have a pull back especially from a level like fifty ($50/oz) which was the record high going back to 1980 so it certainly makes sense that we got a pull back ..now the catalyst could have been Bin Laden but Peter Schiff doubts it that could be a coincidence a lot of time the markets look for any kind of catalyst to do what they want to do anyway and it's clear that a lot of speculators got into the market

Golden Opportunity to buy Physical Silver

The news of the killing of Osama Bin Laden has only temporarily slowed the price of gold. The yellow metal futures expiring in June ended today, rising 0.1% to $ 1,557.10 an ounce. The gold price has been supported by further weakening the dollar. The price of silver has held its exceptional rather abruptly to rise. The futures maturing in July has lost 5.2% to $ 46.08 an ounce. During the meeting, the silver price has come down by 13%, the biggest intraday drop since October 2008. The CME Group , the company that manages the NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange), has decided to increase for the second time in a week the initial deposit required to secure transactions on the futures on silver. The measure has forced many small speculators to close their positions.this pullback in silver price is a Golden Opportunity to buy Physical Silver

Silver the Osama Effect

Silver gained 500% in two years

NOT ALL that glitters is gold, but silver is another matter Silver always shines despite today's correction . Paraphrasing one of the most abused proverbs, that could be the summary of what happened today in the markets and, in particular, on the commodities market. since the Announcement by the U.S. authorities of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, all commodities prices have started to decline . But the psychological effect on players did not last long, because analysts have noted that the death of Osama - as in the top of the wanted list - is not enough by itself to declare the end of the Muslim-inspired terrorism. Much more important, at this moment, it would not end of the war  in Libya. Thus, gold and crude oil have already rebounded late in the morning, coinciding with the decline of European stock exchanges, which is then accentuated after the start of Wall Street.

But not all commodities have followed the path of gold and oil. That was thew case of silver. Traders have sold futures on precious metals with both hands and in the early stages of the session options causing the silver price to plunge by 12%, the largest decline in its history! . There was then a recovery in the rest of the day, but prices have remained in negative territory.

But how to interpret the trend of the price of silver? The negative reaction is
explained by the fact that silver is one of the more sought after by industry and arms traders, in the early hours after the announcement of the death of Osama,The markets thought that there may be a slowdown in demand for military equipment. In fact, demand is already falling for some time because of the crisis of sovereign debt (states must cut the budget and do so even in the defense sector).

The answer, then, is, as often happens, in a speculative movement. From the lows of 2008 to $ 8.453 per ounce of silver has doubled its value ($ 17,960 / oz) last August, and then accelerate up to $ 49.831 (new top for the last 31 years) just last Monday, with an appreciation almost 500% in two and a half years. The precious metal, which in recent years has suffered a deterioration in demand for industrial use (especially in the field of photography with the advent of digital technology), now seems destined to have a new life. The silver industrial demand may increase due to new uses in the field of photovoltaic solar panels.

In addition, it should be noted that silver is a safe haven by excellence, given its chronic shortage: the world demand exceeded the annual production since 1990.

Silver crashed because Osama Died?!?!?!?

Silver prices tumbled on Monday, making their biggest loss since late 2008 by news that al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed in a U.S.-led operation in Pakistan .Osama Bin Laden is dead, President Obama announced Sunday night, in a televised address to the nation.Seems those of us in the PM camp are a little unimpressed with the Osama news, in fact, most seem a little skeptical given the huge, suspicious drop in silver prices ,price is what it was 7 days ago so I look the dip as nothing but a useless attempt to manipulate silver when most markets were offline. The have done nothing but won themselves back 7 days of hikes.This is a great opportunity to buy more silver as the price is not going to stay this low for long time I believe ....
