Well.. silver may go down now due to the equivalent of "Naked Short Selling" in the silver markets. That's what it is, isn't it now? Selling more of a commodity than physically exists (where precious metals, bonds, or equity shares)?? It's counterfeiting.. And it's been going on in the stock markets for many years now as shorts have not been required to have a physical "locate" on the stock they are borrowing to sell. I believe the same has been the case in the US government bond markets for awhile now as well: ipsnews.net Demand was driving US Treasury yields down to near 0%, hence the permission to sell "Naked" what they did not possess at the time in order to keep yields higher. Of course, the government DID then pass a massive stimulus package to increase the supply of US Treasuries.. Hawk
