I agree---if you look at the "Gold Corner" of 1869, it took three of the wealthiest men in America everything they had to ATTEMPT to corner the market on just New York gold. Still, they came close.
But this does raise questions as to why mutual funds would so specifically trigger all this, and who was behind it.
