| The Ghost of Fort Knox Past: Part 2 |
| In my precedent essay, we looked briefly into the Ft. Knox gold controversy. Ft. Knox gold used to back circulating currency, but those days are long gone. Whatever gold remains within this U.S. fortress is now just another Treasury “asset.”Friday, April 10, 2020 |

| Silver Price To Surge As “Investors and Users Fighting Over Available Physical Supplies” |
| One of the world’s foremost silver analysts Theodore Butler has elaborated on another “powerful” bullish factor which “screams at us to buy silver”.
Mr. Butler is one of the leading experts on the silver market and he elaborates on his very positive outlook for silver prices in an article entitled ‘Another Unique Blow-Off Factor’ published on Silver Seek yesterday:
The reason that this knowledge is so important is because the COMEX is the primary place where silver prices are set.

| Ted Butler: J. P. Morgan And Precious Metal Price Manipulation On the Comex |
| I am no legal expert, and therefore have no idea of the merits of this as a prospective case. The law involves things like intent, opportunity, evidentiary proof, and so forth. Apparently one can sue another entity for just about anything, but that does not mean that the case has any merit. And I certainly could not advance such a case based on even industry knowledge. That strikes to the heart of my own issue.
My primary concern is a lack of transparency. And that lack of transparency in thMonday, March 24, 2014 |

Margin Call: Ted Butler Wonders About the Real Cause of Bear Stearns' Collapse  |
| Ted Butler has put one of his newsletters into the public domain.
It raises some interesting points.
At the time of the MF Global collapse it appeared that JPM had their fingerprints all over the squeeze and margin call that put them down. JPM, In the City of London, With a Margin Call.
But I had never thought about it happening in the case of Bear Stearns.
Goldman may be the vampire squid, but JPM may be Mack the Knife.
And is MF Global Jenny Towler, and Bear Stearns Schmul Meier? AndTuesday, February 18, 2014 |

 Ted Butler: Busting the Perfect Crime |
| Obviously I do not know if the CFTC is going a good job of regulating the metals markets or not.
And that is a big part of the problem. I have little confidence that they are doing a good job of maintaining honest and efficient markets based on what I am seeing in the futures markets almost every day.
For an agency to have an ongoing investigation of manipulation in a global market like silver, with NO offical report having been issued after almost five years, is not up to the expectations tSaturday, May 25, 2013 |

Open Letter to Ted Butler  |
| Dear Mr. Butler. I read your article about silver manipulation at 24hgold.com. I am responding as someone who wants free markets. I want to make one thing clear before I proceed.
Dear Mr.Butler:
I read your article about silver manipulation at 24hgold.com and I am responding as someone who wants free markets. I am compelled to respond to your allegation of "manipulation", because I believe you mean it as the naked selling of silver futures (and others also include gold futures in the same scheme). This is not occurring, and I have data to prove it.Thursday, October 4, 2012 |

 The CFTC Silver Investigation |
| There has been an explosion of interest and commentary these past few days as a result of a front page story in Monday’s edition of the influential Financial Times (of London). The story stated that the CFTC was set to drop its four year investigation into alleged silver price manipulation due to insufficient evidence to bring charges, according to three unnamed sources.Friday, August 10, 2012 |

| The Death of Liquidity |
| I know I have been on a one-track mission recently about the extraordinary development of the COMEX gold commercials miscalculating in establishing their giant short position. I know I have been virtually alone in depicting the resultant commercial short covering as being the prime price driver behind gold’s $300 run from $1600 in early August.Tuesday, September 6, 2011 |

It is important to try to understand, as much as possible, what are the dynamics behind the large price moves recently. It is human nature to accept any plausible-sounding reason offered if it is in conformance with the price direction.Friday, August 12, 2011 |

 A Nervous New World  |
| While silver has vastly outperformed gold over any reasonable time period over the past ten years, the rarity of silver is vastly underappreciated. I would guess that maybe one out of every million of the world’s inhabitants knows of this fact. Even among those exposed to the rarity of silver compared to gold, few accept it. Inevitably, as more come to learn and appreciate this startling fact, more will choose to invest in silver.Tuesday, July 26, 2011 |
