Thats exactly what it is. Dont get me wrong, silver has been suppressed through shorting and is a good long term play in my opinion, but its NOT going to be causing anything resembling what we saw with gme. Melvin likely covered much of their positions in the manipulated drops caused by trading halts, and the rise after. If they know when a fall and rise will happen... Because their owners/parent company are orchestrating it.. They can cover. The reason this is all incredible is because normally theyd never be so blatant with the manipulation. Normally it would be subtle and much of it algorithmic. But this time they were caught with their hand in the cookie jar and got desperate to avoid rapid insolvency and worse, so they just made a hail Mary play out in the open. Their buddies in media and congress ran defense.. And it looks like theyre gonna get away with all of it.
