We tend to expect, as we're waving bye-bye to our tax money, that a portion of it will go to critical structure, among other things the enforcement of laws and regulations ... seems a bit pointless otherwise, to even have laws and regulations on the books, actually it could make them dangerous, if all they do is provide us with an illusion of their utility
Which is to say - we have paid ... and paid and paid and paid [we're canehjun up here] ... yet what you say rings true, for sure, investigators must be motivated, and traditional forms of crap-callers have been thinned right out
Short sellers were often great at scam-picking, pity that they came so much to rely on a method so completely fraudulent as naked shorting, selling paper that did not in fact exist, willing it up from thin air, it was almost like they were Goldman Sachs there for a while ... couldn't last, no accountability = total power = corruption, now they have to be accountable for a borrow, and quite rightly
Sounds like you have something specific in mind, Jeff, it's been so long since i hung around scambuster threads that i have no idea what's up, so starting from scratch here ... also, i wasn't caught in the Allen-Vanguard stock, just an observer on that, a bit concerned though as if it's that easy to write down hundreds of millions and wipe out shareholders in secret without explanation, then all holders in all companies had better address yet another risk
And in this case it's a bit late to short the stock -g- ... also, it's domiciled/listed canadian ... but a specific answer to a specific question - Uh, maybe, depends, how much we talking here? -g- |
