[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3388389, member: 27832"]There's no substitute for a first-hand account. :) Thanks for posting this! Having said that, Wikipedia claims that Nelson Bunker Hunt "[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Bunker_Hunt']was fined US$10 million and banned from trading in the commodity markets as a result of civil charges of conspiring to manipulate the silver market[/URL]", citing [URL='https://www.nytimes.com/1989/12/21/business/2-hunts-fined-and-banned-from-trades.html']a New York Times article[/URL] which says William Herbert Hunt was fined the same amount. They both seem to have bounced back just fine from this minor setback. W. Herbert [URL='https://www.forbes.com/profile/w-herbert-hunt/#23d943c1a30f']is worth $2 billion today[/URL]. But I'm sure he learned his lesson.[/QUOTE]
