RE: Open Message To All The True LongsThanks for reminding me of this tactic!
Your are correct. If longs are in SA for a while (ie a few months+) and don't mind holding their share certificates then this will definately help us all. Many people do not realize that brokerage can use your shares (they hold the certificates for you) to short and play games.....we have seen many of them in the last few years.
I hope that JP and other substancial holders have their certificates in their posession. At the AGM we accounted for over 50% of the outstanding shares and we were not that many people.
When you want to sell then you will be required to send your certificates to your brokerage so it adds a little step. When one anticipates the time is close to sell, you can just send them in.
Something for people to consider as SA is ready to embark on the next phase and one that we hope will burn the ones playing games..........
