He often scolded the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission for its failure to recognize or even look for silver market manipulation, peppering the agency with detailed letters and usually receiving replies that were at best evasive. But in the process he did much to alert investors that powerful forces were striving to suppress silver prices, and increasingly having trouble doing so.
GATA sends its respects to Butler's family and will aim to distribute his formal obituary when it becomes available.
