CPM Group's Silver Survey 1999 << The silver market both confused and pleased everyone in 1998. In the first part of the year silver prices staged a surprisingly sharp rally, as banks that had sold silver short in the forward market had to scurry to find physical metal to deliver against these commitments when the buyer stood to take delivery. That buyer was Berkshire Hathaway, which announced in early February that it had purchased 129.7 million ounces of silver as a long term investment and had taken delivery of this metal on an allocated basis as part of its strategy. The tightness related to the shorts having to find this much metal to deliver through the London market pushed silver prices sharply higher, and drove them into a backwardation for a time. -- cont'd -- >> gold-eagle.com **** Hi Giraffe, << Now that says a lot about Canadians.
