I was trying to stay away but this is, as inviola said, a total manipulation. Seems like no one wants to invest in a solid company anymore but simply reap profits from shady trading practices. I'm getting pretty peeved but not selling a single share. If they continue to play their petty games, I'll simply add more as they tank the price. I'm sure when we see the numbers this will turn ...more

Shorting is a disgusting way to trade a stock I am amazed that it is legal it definitely makes it hard to build a portfolio of promising companies.How many viable start ups have been killed by shorting.

Totally agree and borrow our shares to do it !
Comment by inviolablspirit on Mar 24, 2021 11:52am
They can't borrow your shares to short a stock, you own them.  Shorts have to borrow shares from the company that runs your trading platform.  So for example, if you were trading with RBC then RBC investor trading would have bought shares in empower and the shorters would be borrowing their shares to short with.  If your trading plateform doesn't have any shares to borrow ...more

So the idea that was passed around earlier by retail investors that you can put your shares up for a high asking price to reduce or prevent a short attack is at best...  laughable.   Sorry, I hate to burst people's bubble of hope, but that's the reality of trading stocks.   On a side note: If you are tired of watching predatory short sellers damage companies and ...more  
Comment by inviolablspirit on Mar 24, 2021 11:39am
This is certainly not a short attack.  Why would shorts try to short a stock that is oversold and has low volume?  That would be a very high risk short that's not worth taking the chance on when there are so many overbought stocks across the sectors which would be an easy target to short.  The stock is being sytematically walked down by the institutions because they simply can ...more

Yay, Risky! :) Welcome back, we missed you! I'm contemplating on doing what you just did, which is staying away from bullboards and my trading platform for a bit. Definitely not going to sell a single share at this point too, not helping whoever is manipulating this stock lately get in for cheap by buying my shares. Well, March is almost done (ufff) and I believe April will be a completely new ...more  
Comment by inviolablspirit on Mar 24, 2021 3:03pm
Yeah, March has been a disaster of a month.  I'm with you the manipulators won't get a single share of mine.  There's too much going on with this company for the share price to remain down for much longer.  Like I said I got a feeling that it's being held down until the clearing house is open.
Comment by Outlander1 on Mar 24, 2021 10:47am
GalAnonymous posted a few days ago about the signs of bashers and  shorters.  The fact they only attack good companies ought to give some reassurance this is a great company. Some of them will become long on the company when they feel it can be beaten down no more. If you believe in the CBDT story, let it play out, the financials will ultimately determine where we go!

Empower is not worth 50 cents. Investors will push this down with warrants 
Comment by Mayberry1 on Mar 25, 2021 12:31am
sorry Charles I totally disagree. This company is being held down by manipulation during a market correction. I like many on this board am not selling a single share and in fact have money set aside if they manipulate it down that far. Ridiculous things like "make believe Steve" and "this garbage isn't worth 50 cents" might have tricked a lot more shareholders in the past ...more

 You you think free speech is worth nothing ? But meanwhile you can come on here and laud any overvalued stock you want and cause people to lose money (like many on this board) buying more at 1.5+ based off your "napkin math"?? But if somebody has something negative to say about a stock they deserve jail?   Seriously. It's mostly fun and banter but some of you need ...more
