The Hunt Brother's Arabian Connection...

    I've heard the Hunt brothers (William and Nelson) collaborated with some Arabs to manipulate the silver market in the 1970s. After the bubble burst the Hunt's were convicted in some rather unsavory conspiracy actions and eventually went broke declaring bankruptcy.

    If (a private citizen) owning gold was legal then would the above results have been the same if the Hunts would have tried to corner the market on gold?

    Also, the fact the Hunt's were part of this there is no question, but the Arab players. Who were they, anyone know?

    Take Care

    2nd try..

    Thanks Cloudy, The Saudi's being at the heart of this don't surprise me in the least. Now, the Shah's Son Renzi, well that's something surprising altogether...
