The Hunt Brothers attempted to corner the silver market. Controlling enough to cause the price to spike and sell at the top was the plan.

I don’t think they succeeded. The current market is broader and different conditions prevail.

nor do i think they were trying to “corner” anything. they moved their oil money into silver when oil was getting killed. nothing illegal about that.
