RE: RE: point... I beg to differ on the suggestion that there are no dishonest dollars made in the stocks. NAKED SHORTSELLING i consider very dishonest , as it amounts to selling something you dont own , and cannot borrow.
And the recent short and distort schemes , ( alfred little etc) may be even worse than the naked shorters.
They make allegations of fraud, send letters to regulators with accusations and meanwhile short the stock in the millions of $$$ with the help of some hedge funds. Then when the allegations are disproven, because the company is a bonafide , upfront entity, the accusers take their millions in profits and say , oh wait , we were only posting our opinions, and we cant be prosecuted for any wrongdoing. It is criminal in fact , and at the very minimum hugely dishonest.
Grinder may be working as a basher for a short who is under water..... cant blame him for trying to make some dough... but if you dont find his posts informative, you can always use the iggy button, it certainly cleans up the board so you can read just the informative posts and not have to wade thru the useless ones.
