SEC considers ending short sells

SEC considers ending short sells

ATTN: Posters and lurkers take this to two other boards, asking that it be reposted to identify participation and promulgate this cause.

Short interest as a known commodity is part of DD, but not having to be responsible to cover margin calls is the practice that will be curtailed with new legislation. Shoot off an email to the SEC, they are requesting consumer feedback relative to MM short sales.

RE: SEC enactment of legislation to eliminate short sells

SEC Concept Release:
Short Sales

Here's an excerpt from the SEC sight.....

OTCBB investors are responding. SEC has received a record number of comments from individual investors, numbering in “the hundreds.” They’re surprised, because they rarely receive many individual responses to such proposals, and the word is out that the issue of MMM is gaining their special attention.

This should easily be responded to by the thousands. I am drafting my response, and will take this cause to two other boards I view.
