Sky Scientific caught you, too. Now there was a textbook case of insider manipulation. Did you hear about it from that august publication titled, ironically enough, "Wall Street Insider"?
Your superb post reflects a depth of knowledge not available to those who have not been similarly stung by the insiders' "shell game". What is remarkable about this "game" is that it is played with impunity despite the broad purview and otherwise focused scrutiny of redundant state and federal securities watchdog agencies. This is a charlatan's game, and there are but a blessed' few who know how it is played. This generalized ignorance is, of course, the charlatan's greatest strength. In the end, this oft repeated company shell game is tantamount to organized theft on a scale that makes all the rackets of all the mobs look like the Saturday night two-penny ante poker game over at Uncle Joe's house. Doubtless, you make a compelling case for ignoring Woolenchuck's well-worn admonitions and strident exhortations regarding the taking of physical possession of shares held long. The small investor, as you wisely suggest, risks ensnarement in a potentially fatal trap- intended or no. Besides, this point itself is moot if, as has been announced here, the company registers the great number of shares it currently holds. Time, of course, will tell us the nature of this beast. All of us here would gladly suffer a sharp price increase in the stock. In the meantime, I look forward to your thoughtful posts. |
