So I was thinking about this the other day when I was buying my lottery tickets You traders on here know much much more than I do about the markets and how they move.

How much money would it take to influence the silver market...say, buy a bunch of futures and then demand delivery. Are there other actions that could unwind some of the manipulation in the market? Obviously a mere couple of hundred million wouldn't totally screw over JPM and the other big boys, but could one individual make enough waves to make them pucker a little?

In my opinion....you have have the pockets like Eric Sprott that purchased $1.5 billion of silver bullion last year. This can't help but effect the market because he demands the physical and not just paper.

If I had that kind of money I would buy up as much physical as possible. I think that would have a more direct impact on prices. COMEX doesn't have to settle in physical, they can weasel and pay cash.

You might effect it temporarily, but "they" would just leverage it back down again. Loads more paper around than real metal.

When those that are actually dealing in physical stop using the paper markets, the paper markets will crash.
