Intervention Data Piling Up

I don't believe that the government has a slush fund to manipulate the price of commodities or financial markets.  However, the data that a significant intervention was made on behalf of the U.S.$ is starting to pile up.  The 10x increase in the short positions in the futures markets for silver does not at appear to be a risk that anyone but a central bank or sovereign wealth fund could withstand... unless the Hunt brothers are back.
