Let's assume that they did borrow 300 tons, and let's assume they are the stupidest people around. And borrowed at the low of $280. Well at $300/oz they lost 192 million, plus lease rates. Compared to their leverage of 300 tons, or 3 Billion, that a loss of 6.43%

But than maybe they borrowed back at $400? And showed a PROFIT of $960 Million; 25%. This is the LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT! Who knows where they entered into their positions?
