You want to paint an epidemic of abuse using naked shorting as the vehicle to defraud. SHOW AN EPIDEMIC then or shut up.
OK, so you want a few names of companies claiming to be victims of illegal naked short selling? Do 109 names constitute an "epidemic"? Mind you, this list is from several years ago. I'm sure a more up-to-date list would be way much longer...
=====
The remaining 109 companies among the 122 named to date have issued press releases or been named in the media as having been victimized, or as taking various actions, either alone or in concert with other companies, to oppose manipulative trading in the form of illegal naked short selling. The actions have ranged from lawsuits to withdrawals and threatened withdrawals from the electronic trading system managed by the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp., to withdrawals from toxic financings, to the issuance of dividends or name changes designed to squeeze manipulators, to joining associations or networks or to contacting regulatory authorities to provide documentation of abuses or otherwise complain.
