re: Metals, silver in particular, getting crushed.

On CBOE website. Commitment of traders report. And another report that shoes who is taking physical possession.

They're hugely short futures contracts, but taking deliver, and lots of it on their fewer long contracts.

I'm mobile, or I would post links. But you can find it if you dig around a bit. There are also some articles on it, but mostly written by silver longs, so you need to separate facts from their bias. The CBOE reports are factual.

Farm land is worth quite aa lot. Our football team isn't worth much except pain. We play tOSU close, and I guess that's good enough up here. Drives me frigid nuts.
