    Smashing The Shorts


    Hamanaka's manipulation was common knowledge among many speculators and hedge funds, and that he was
    long in both physical holdings and futures in copper.
    Whenever someone tried to short Hamanaka, however, he kept pouring cash into his positions,
    outlasting the shorts simply by having deeper pockets.
    Hamanaka's long cash positions forced anyone shorting
    copper to deliver the goods or close out their position at a premium.
    (...)
    Fallout
    Sumitomo responded to the allegations by implicating JPMorgan Chase and
    Merrill Lynch. Sumitomo blamed the two banks for keeping the scheme going by
    granting loans
    to Hamanaka through structures like futures derivatives.

    Due to increased demand from industry and investors, silver exports from
    China are expected to drop about 40% this year. And that's actually an
    improvement; customs data show exports plunged almost 60% through the first
    eight months. China exported about 3,500 metric tons of silver in 2009, but has
    exported only 970 tons through August of this year.

    What a lot of Westerners don't know is that China ended export "rebates" two
    years ago to stem the shipment of natural resources leaving the country. As a
    result of the regulation, silver exports decreased in 2009 but are nothing like
    what they're experiencing this year

    What does this mean? It would take a full half-year of dedicated silver
    production to cover these short positions. You only get positions like this when
    there's significant illegitimate activity going on
    – not when normal producers
    and consumers trade based on supply and demand. There's no way these short
    positions represent a legitimate hedge against future price fluctuation – and
    that's why the CFTC has been ordered to shut this down.

    I know of no legitimate economic reason
    why silver
    would have such a large concentrated short position, when compared to every other physical commodity. I conclude that the abberation in silver (and, to a lesser extent, gold) can only be explained by manipulation.
    This is the point that the CFTC and the NYMEX continue to evade.

    Auslöser und Antrieb für meinen Neuen-Mogambo-Silberkauf-Kreuzzug (NMSkK) war
    die Lektüre Ed Steers Gold & Silver Daily. Im Bericht für Banken-Trading und
    Derivataktivitäten herausgegeben vom Bankenaufsichtsamt (Comptroller of the
    Currency) für das 1.Quartal 2010 war ihm aufgefallen, dass "2 US-Banken, JP Morgan
    und HSBC,
    zwischen 97% und 99% der Gold- und Silberderivate aller US-Banken zusammen halten.

    April 3, 2010
    Silver Short Squeeze Could Be Imminent
    On December 11th, 2009 NIA declared silver the best investment for the next
    decade. In our December 11th article, we said that it wasn't a coincidence that the
    very day Bear Stearns failed was the same day silver reached its multi-decade high of over $21 per ounce
    .
    We went on to say, "The reason why we believe the Federal Reserve was so eager to orchestrate a bailout of Bear Stearns, is because Bear Stearns was on the verge of being forced to cover their silver short position."

    JP Morgan took over the concentrated short position in silver from Bear Stearns
    and gained complete control over the paper price of silver. Within weeks, JP Morgan was able to
    manipulate the price of silver down to below $9 per ounce
    . NIA
    believes they were able to drive the price of silver down through "naked short
    selling", selling paper silver that is unbacked by physical silver.
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    December 11, 2009
    NIA Declares Silver Best Investment for Next Decade
    Besides the fact that the world has been ignoring the monetary value of silver,
    silver prices are artificially low due to a large concentrated naked short
    position. It's not a coincidence that the day silver reached its multi-decade high of over $21 per ounce
    in March of 2008
    , was the same day Bear Stearns failed. Bear Stearns was a holder
    of a massive short position in silver. In our opinion, this was likely a naked
    short position because there is nobody in the world who owns such a large amount of silver
    for Bear Stearns
    to have borrowed.


    The reason why we believe the
    Federal Reserve
    was so eager to orchestrate a bailout of Bear Stearns, is because
    Bear Stearns was on the verge of being forced to cover their silver short position. Because
    the silver market is so small
    and tightly held, if Bear Stearns was forced
    to cover
    their short position, silver prices could've potentially rose to $50 per ounce or higher
    overnight. The world would've seen how economically unstable our country is
    and confidence in the U.S. dollar would've rapidly deteriorated.


    JP Morgan still holds the silver short position they inherited from Bear Stearns. The concentrated naked short
    position in silver today is the largest short position in the history of all commodities,
    as a percentage of its market size.Eventually
    , JP Morgan will have to cover
    this short position
    or it could jeopardize their existence.


    The best evidence that the short position in silver is naked and not backed by real
    silver
    , is the differential between what silver trades for on the Comex
    and what real people are willing to pay for physical silver on eBay. Every hour on eBay, there are
    dozens of one ounce silver coins selling for approximately $25.
    That's about a 43% premium over the current
    spot price of silver.
    With so much demand for physical silver

    Four Facts That Bang JP Morgan That You Just Won't
    By: Reggie
    Middleton
    | Fri, Oct 22, 2010


    FACT ONE: First and Foremost, JP Morgan has been DESTROYING Shareholder Value
    for TWO Years Running, and I Don't See It Getting Much Better Any Time Soon!
    That Two Years Is Exclusive Of The Devastating 2008 Market Crash!


    FACT TWO: ZIRP is Literally Starving JP Morgan


    FACT THREE: The JP Morgan Foreclosure Pipeline is Not Only Packed Tight,
    It Is Progressively Getting Much Worse As The Time To Foreclosure Extends AND
    the Delinquency Rate Continues to Climb At The Same Time That Real Economic
    Housing Sales Value Is At An All Time Low As Well - and Getting Worse!!!


    Future Losses Are Mounting at an Incredible Pace Yet JPM is reducing
    provisions due to improving credit metrics.


    FACT FOUR: JP Morgan's Derivatives Portfolio Is STILL VASTLY Inferior To That of Bear
    Stearns
    AND Lehman Brothers Just Before They Collapsed!!!
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    konstruktive kritische Anmerkungen und Tips sind erwünscht !!! Thank you, for your positiv feedback

    Vorsicht hier könnte eine optische Täuschung entstehen !!!


    solche linearen Darstellungen sind bei einer short-squeeze weniger hilfreich
    dennoch kann man sich das Ganze mal ansehen !!!


    den Abstand des aktuellen Tageskurs zur 200 Tagelinie bekommt man in grober Darstellung mit indicator PPO(1,200,1)

    Why Did Japanese Traders Load Up on Silver Recently?
    [url]http://seekingalpha.com/article/228593-why-did-japanese-traders-load-up-on-silver-recently[/url]
    So when I saw that open interest on silver was spiking
    on the Tokyo commodities exchange (TOCOM) over the past week, I put out the feelers for some reason
    why - and why now?


    www.statsweeper.com
    ---> TOCOM-open-interest ---> silver

    www.statsweeper.com
    ---> latest alerts --->

    After all, Japan's central bank has held interest rates near all time lows
    for years on end. In addition, silver prices have been on a huge upswing.
    So why would commodity traders in Japan
    start pumping up the volume on silver now?
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Reviewing the historical chart shows that Silver in JPY peaked at ~JPY 2,000 per ounce-of-silver in
    March 2008.


    Spot Silver in JPY is currently trading at ~JPY 1,900. The strengthening JPY
    makes Silver not yet reaching the 2008 peak in Japan. Should it return to JPY 2,000, Silver
    in USD will be around 24.
    I wish Silver will at least hit 24 for this uptrend.

    Back to the specific canaries hopefully worthy of your vigilance in the here
    and now
    . Below are a series of charts, but they are just thematic examples. If
    there is going to be muni trouble ahead,
    we hope to "see" it first
    in these
    vehicles long before it hits the Wall Street Journal, so to speak. First,
    levered closed end muni bond funds
    are a watch point for us in terms of
    hopefully foreshadowing
    the dawning of a change in investor perceptions
    regarding the macro muni market. We happen to have some exposure to the Nuveen
    Cal Muni Fund (NVX) and the PIMCO Cal Muni Income Fund (PCQ).

    denkt nochmal zurück
    als bei VW-Stammaktien eine Short-Squeeze begonnen hatte
    der Preis ging von ca. 100 Euro auf ca. 1000 Euro
    müsste halt mal bei VW short-squeeze suchen !!!


    Anyone following the futures market for silver know that the large commercial
    traders, banks such as JP Morgan Chase (JPM), always win. That is until now.


    Jeder der den Future-Silber-Markt verfolgt ist bekannt, dass die grossen
    Commercial-Händler, Banken wie JP Morgan Chase immer gewinnen. Das ist bis jetzt
    so gewesen.

    Something has drastically changed in the silver market.
    The banks that once controlled the price of silver

    are now closing positions at a loss.
    Traders may begin to speculate on what has changed and why.
    Some traders have reported that a large buyer is entering the market.
    Regardless of the
    actual reason the commercial shorts have begun to bleed money.
    And when blood spills, sharks will circle
    . Hedge funds
    and traders that never even thought of silver before will begin to squeeze the
    shorts.
    If the big banks don't quickly regain control of the
    silver market they may lose it forever.


    Irgendwas hat sich extrem verändert im Silbermarkt. Die Banken die sonst den
    Silberpreis kontrollierten schliessen nun mit Verlust ihre Positionen.


    Händler beginnen zu spekulieren was sich geändert hat und warum. Einige
    Händler haben berichtet dass ein grosser Käufer den Markt betritt.


    Abgesehen von dem aktuellen Hintergrund dass die Commercial-Shorts angefangen
    haben zu bluten. Und wenn Blut ausläuft, dann werden die Haifische anfangen zu kreisen.
    Hedgefunds und Händler die niemals daran gedacht haben
    Silber zu handeln werden beginnen die Shorts auszupressen.


    Wenn die grossen Banken nicht schnell die Kontrolle zurückgewinnen am
    Silbermarkt dann dürften Sie für immer verlieren.

    habe hier mal einen Chart zum overbought-market silver
    reingestellt


    ihr müsst mal einige Wochen zurückblättern und euch die angehängten Bilddateien ansehen


    im Moment halte ich noch meine Silberminenaktien


    jedoch wäre es nett wenn ihr hier einige Charts als bildliche Darstellung reinstellt


    und dann kommt natürlich das Gegenargument
    dass bei einer short-squeeze z.B. bei VW-Stammaktien die Charttechnik nicht mehr funktioniert


    auch in einem manipuliertem Silbermarkt kann die Charttechnik teilweise Fehlsignale liefert


    dennoch finde ich die Charttechnik wichtig um einen overbought-market zumindest zu erkennen
    ob ihr verkauft oder nicht diese Entscheidung ist schwerer als die Kaufentscheidung.


    Vor kurzem hat hier einer das Beispiel vom crude-oil-market genannt
    da ging der Preis pro Barrel auch von ca. 30 US-$ bis 140 US-$
    sind alles nur grobe Angaben
    mein Gedächtnis ist leider nicht das beste oder ich kenne Kollegen
    mit einem besseren Aufnahmevermögen aber im Finanzbereich sind die total gescheitert


    Jeder kann es lernen Aktien zu kaufen und zu verkaufen
    Jeder kann es lernen seine Lebensversicherung zu verkaufen und sich Gold und Silbermünzen kaufen
    decision-making-process
    sowas haben wir in der Schule einfach nicht gelernt

    am Do. 30.Sept-2010 ist der Ölpreis durch die 200-Tagelinie nach oben gestiegen


    und wenn ich am Fr.01.Okt-2010 den Silberpreis beobachte dann steigt er


    am Fr. 01.Okt-2010ebenso verliert wieder der Wert vom US-Dollar gegenüber dem Euro


    der ganze Fr. 01.Okt-2010 dürfte sehr interessant für den Silberpreis sein


    ich bin noch voll in Silberminen investiert


    würde aber gerne Verkaufssignale erhalten um bei steigendem Silberpeis zu verkaufen und neu einzukaufen
    ( Momentum traden ) mit extremen Abstand zu 200-Tagelinie

    Zinsen 1979/1980 gegenüber dem Jahr-2010

    that inflation is the biggest driver of interest rates - you can also see that gold's stunning rise in the second half of the 1970s occurred during a period of strongly rising interest rates. So, rising interest rates and rising gold prices are not mutually exclusive.


    [Blockierte Grafik: http://static.safehaven.com/authors/casey/18361_a.png]


    The second difference between now and then becomes clear in the next chart showing that
    while there certainly was an inflation problem during Volcker's reign,
    there definitely was not
    a debt problem. At least not compared to today.


     [Blockierte Grafik: http://static.safehaven.com/authors/casey/18361_b.png]


    The implications of the nation's current debt load loom large in this discussion.
    Aggressively raising interest rates,
    as Volcker did back in the day (1979),would not just dent today's U.S. economy, it would destroy it. As it would evaporate a significant amount of the trillions of dollars now sitting in government debt, much of it held by pensioners.

    der Ansteig vom Silberpreis und Goldpreis
    oder der Wertverfall vom US-Dollar
    kommt zum richtigen Zeitpunkt
    eben dann wenn der US-housingmarket nicht mehr steigt sondern weiter fällt
    ist aber nur eines von mehreren indicators.

    While most of these statistics use the 1980 highs in gold and silver as a
    proxy, there is much more potential for a greater move in precious metals now
    because currency and economic imbalances are not confined to the U.S. but are
    global.
    If the US dollar is devalued, it is likely that the Euro, Yen and other
    currencies would also be devalued.
    While the 1970's bull market in gold and
    silver was largely driven by U.S. buyers
    , a panic to buy precious metals within
    the next 5 years will be driven globally.

    ist ganz einfach
    Du stellst gute Infos hier ins Forum rein
    und stellst dann die Frage.


    Es reicht wenn Du mir sagen kannst
    ob der US-Dollar oversold or overbought is.


    Natürlich kannst Du Deine Chartanalyse mit Graphik verdeutlichen


    Bilder mit Sprechblasen funktionierten schon bei den Mick-Maus-Heftchen
