A question... A lot of people post on various threads that it is "illegal" to short BB stocks. Is this true? One stock that I follow, although no longer have any money in (OTCBB:JAWS) has message threads that have been consumed with talk of a "massive, illegal, naked" short for over a year now. I imagine one of you here could answer this question factually, so if anyone has the time or inclination, I'd appreciate a little education on the subject. TIA
