Hello, Lorne. Yes, I've seen the purported Bloomberg story of shorting in financials, 2 airlines, and some travel industry stocks prior to last Tues. The version I heard was that "said shorting occured in London, not here." And I heard some official mouthpiece from our SEC deny later this afternoon on CNBC that it "could have not possibly happened here, because when shorting occurs, they (SEC) can get their hands on who is doing it within minutes, but that SEC counterparts in London and other large markets could take a little longer to investigate those types of shortings, which he doubted had occured." So, stories and denials...ever feel like you're watching a ping-pong match? G'night. gold_tutor

<<Gold and silver buried in WTC <<Gold and silver buried in WTC By Simon English (Filed: 19/09/2001 " Investors buying and selling gold and silver usually just exchange the warrants that indicate ownership. Only 1pc of gold trades involves a physical transfer, said the NYME. Analysts say that the amount under the building is not significant enough to cause a shortage in either gold or silver.">> Half true anyway. I'd call NOTHING insignificant, wouldn't you?
