<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1379677, member: 29012"]I can only speak for myself and the reason I didn't post about it was because there was no price change. I expected at least some price uptick, but since that didn't happen it was mostly a non event. Silver still has the highest margin requirements of anything so this change doesn't really mean all that much. Last year there were a lot of speculative longs driving up the market to $49 so the margin hike was justified, but the level of the moves before and after $49 shed light on how price was not reflective of the actual market whether up or down. I think the fact that the speculative longs did not return to the market after this margin decrease means that the speculators have been burned and are styaing away so the CME did their job of stabilizing the market albeit only after allowing rampant speculation far longer than they should have which gave them the opportunity to scare people away from silver as an investment in the first place.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
