Lots of theories surround the Buffet story bedsides his great success as the oracle. I've often read that he was forced to sell his silver position by the PTB who used the leverage of attacking his family now and long after he was dead, certainly plausible in the power circles of America. Just as it's rumoured someone placed a hand on his shoulder suggesting now would be a good time to invest in Goldman, if you know what I mean!!! Again highly plausible, maybe he will write the truth someday before he passes but unlikely given he is leaving loved ones behind.
