For years we have heard about the manipulative short position that the bullion banks hold on gold and silver. And while some have wondered if it will ever end, keep in mind that when these banks are short, they're losing money when the price goes up. Which certainly appeared to be the case this past week, and Dave Kranzler of Investment Research Dynamics joined me on the show to explain what happened.
