  3. Look at the moves in the 19 stocks today. Then, look at TASR, OSTK.

    Check out Regsho, and pick a couple of the biggest stocks. Check the charts. Then, when it really breaks, and it won't be long, make yourself one of those ten baggers. I know where a lot of the pennies are. But that's not for this board. That's where the action is and will be. But you'll do fine with some of the listed stuff.

    As far as how does it affect you, think about it. Borrows are tough. Up is the easiest path. Plus, you 've got the Feds in the Brokerage Firms already. And the Hedgies are whores. They'll turn on each other. If they know a competitor has a big fail and there's a buy in coming, they're going to hose him like a prom Queen. Have at it.

    Regsho.com is Tabaccos' site. He was on TV yesterday. It's information is good, and easy to access.

    Oh, remember. Anything before 1/5/05 is 'grandfathered' and doesn't show up on SHO. BUT!!!! That doesn't mean it 's not naked shorted to death, and that the fails exist. They attempt to drive them to zero. When they don't, you get a CROX or Jones Soda. So, if you see a stock is "heavily shorted", or , if the reported interest is a crazy number and the stock isn't on SHO, put it on a suspect list. It probably has a big percentage, or even mulitple of, it's float in failed securities.
    Good luck.

  4. Why would the SEC enforce it?

    The exchange or the brokers/market makers can enforce just by switching the no naked shorting.

    No need to 'enforce it' SEC is useless.

  5. The brokers or participating brokers and exchange own this market.

    They can enforce their own rules.

  6. The rapture will happen monday and daytraders, esp. shorts, will be left here in this market that knows no merit. Investors will be transported somewhere where a company's success has more to do with how its share price moves.

  7. Just imagine if he put all that energy into the company instead of crying to anyone who will listen about the evil short sellers. But nooo, it is all their fault his company is unprofitable and hemorraging cash like a stuck pig. It's all their fault the company is a quarter billion in the hole.

    But hey, who wants to do real work when you can just manipulate the float and push your stock price by short rips.

  8. Sure. Force Protection, the dozens and dozens of companies trying to develop drugs to keep your sorry ass alive, Taser, Cal Maine, and million others. All just so much fodder for your heroes; those psychopaths who dont' know how to do an honest trade. Your boy Phil Goldstein was on CNBC this morning. He's so fucking stupid that lackey Kernan and Cramer's former producer Quick couldn't make him look good. "Phil, don't you think these rumors that are obviously false.....??" "I'm for free speech.!!!" Just brilliant. Someone to hold up for your kids to admire.

    XLF up 15% since Cox made his forced decree. Now, at least they can raise some capital. How many other companies have they starved todeath? If you had the fucking brains to create something, maybe you'd have some empathy for those that did, and had it stolen. But then again, maybe not.

  9. I don't take pharma drugs and would love to see 95% of that industry dissapear from the face of the earth. Maybe I should be supportive of Taser, an innovative enabler for more police violence, with a CEO that sounds like he was selling used cars.

    Hmm so shorting a piece of crap company that can't make money or keep a proper balance sheet is not knowing how to make an honest trade? Especially when the piece of sh*t company has been manipulating the float by squeezing shorts and having their stock very hard to borrow? Yeah ok, try looking in the mirror at one of the causes why naked shorting got so popular.

    I don't know or care who that is as I don't watch the moron box. While you are obviously glued to it. The irony of you calling anyone stupid.

    Are you kidding me? You're gonna exclaim victory because an index composed of companies which are nothing more than leeches which have never and will never produce a d*mn thing are up? Especially after crying to regulators & government to help support their stock, while the executives embezzle funds and the balance sheets turn into contortions that make NYC sewers look like 5 star hotel room bathrooms?
    It's pathetic just how scared you are to face the truth. You're like a kid who cries about getting wet because he went swimming. You are a joke and a hypocrite. It's all great when a company that can't make a dime is hyped up & squeezed shorts to have a $60-70 stock price when it can barely be justified to be worth $10. But when the tide turns, it's a conspiracy & great injustice.

    And stop making yourself out to be an almighty amazing person who we should all listen to without question. Your level of intelligence is laughable and your "success" is just another case of piggybacking off daddy's position & connections.

    Seriously, all these crybabies about their companies being naked shorted to death can always go private. Too bad by taking the company private you lose the option of creating the illusion of the company becoming profitable someday and have no dumb retail investors to rip off.

    Hey. Dipshit. What do you think capital markets are for? So you can have a private dumping ground? They' are to raise capital. Capital formation!!! Ever hear of it? You 're not supposed to bring somebody public for 4% and then smoke them..

    You think like old people fuck.
