The (Silver) Sunday Night Massacre, One Year Later - TF Metals Report

``It appears to me that the current demand for silver is strong and that the current supply is tight. Even tighter than last year at this time. Equally important, price has fallen 40% while The Silver Cartel has effectively trimmed their net short position by 70%. The only sensible, business option for The Cartel is to continue to cover their short position, regardless of price action going forward. Given the ongoing possibility and continuing concern for delivery default, The Cartel must utilize this final dip in price to flatten their books. If they do, silver will rise through this process and then accelerate, once Cartel price interference has been removed. If The Cartel fails to get flat here (or if they are not allowed to), they ultimately risk a default and collapse that will not only bring down their individual firms but, also, bring about a financial calamity the size and scope of which has not been seen since 2008.''
