In the late Nineteen Seventies, two Texas oil billionaires — Nelson and William Hunt — set out to corner the silver market. At their peak, they controlled more silver than most governments in the world. Prices soared from just six dollars an ounce to nearly fifty by January Nineteen Eighty.
Families melted silverware. Pawn shops overflowed. Traders believed the Hunts were unstoppable. But then the rules changed. COMEX tightened margin requirements. The Hunts were overleveraged... drowning in debt. And when the crash came, silver collapsed from fifty dollars to ten in a matter of weeks.
It became known as Silver Thursday. Billions were lost. Fortunes were destroyed. And even the richest family in Texas couldn’t escape the lesson that leverage cuts both ways.
This is the dramatic story of ambition, greed, and collapse... the day silver nearly broke Wall Street.
