By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

Little in the way of news has transpired in the past week that could have an impact on the silver market. The main stage has been set for some time, regarding all the known factors affecting silver, to date. There is no need to review any of them, at this point.

Connivers Figuring To Cheat (CFTC) & What Will They Say When Silver Runs Out

September 28, 2013
By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

CFTC chief Gary Gensler, Goldman Sachs alumnus, seems to be saying, “Hey! Silver longs and mining shareholders! I picked up a line from “The Big Valley” TV series, October 31, 1966 episode, “Target.” I use the line at all CFTC meetings on silver prices---“I say, we kill him right now!”

Is mainstream media guilty of professional malpractice?

By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

One person’s view on how and why the mainstream media have served as an accomplice to precious metals manipulation.

Today's dismissal by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission of complaints about manipulation of the silver market leaves plenty of room for a conclusion opposite from the one that news reports will publicize -- that there's no evidence of manipulation.

Can Silver and Palladium Tell Us More About the Outlook for Gold?

September 25, 2013
By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

Summing up, the recent upward move in both metals was not as bullish as it seemed at first sight and the breakdown in palladium was not invalidated. The implications are still bearish and the bearish case for gold that we made in our previous essay seems to be confirmed by what we see in the silver and palladium markets. At the same time please keep in mind that the analogy to the 2008 decline is still in place and a small move higher should not surprise us (such as the one that we are seeing…

We shouldn’t hold our breath waiting for government agencies to end manipulation
