From JSMineset.com comes last night's commentary on market action by Trader Dan:

Excerpt:

"...Apparently there has already been some sizeable short covering occurring in the Comex silver market that only recently has come to an end as the three groups mentioned above have gone back to their normal status quo. One group of buyers has been operating somewhat under the radar screen and that is the class known as the other reportables. These are large traders such as private individuals or locals or sometimes CTAs. They have been steadily buying since $22 and as of yet show no sign that they have had enough. While not the largest force to contend with in the market, they are also not to be ignored. Those who trade in reportable size in any market are generally not your typical, uninformed speculator but are those who tend to know their market fairly well. After all, large private traders are not risking client money – they are risking their own and that makes for no tolerance towards ignorance..."
