Ted Butler - The Silver Conspiracy

``At the same time the concentrated short position of the 8 largest COMEX shorts is near record highs, JPMorgan's share has rarely been lower, according to the COTs. The only explanation that makes sense is that those involved in the conspiracy are trying to take the attention and heat off of the crooks at JPMorgan by shifting some of the short position from JPMorgan and placing it in other large short accounts. There is no legitimate reason why the 5 thru 8 largest traders on the COMEX hold an all-time record short position at a time of record low miner hedging. As distasteful as I've always found the word "conspiracy" to be, I can't find a more apt description for what has transpired on the COMEX.''
