I'm in GUMM as an investment.

Short Squeeze? yes its coming. When it happens, you'll know
instantly by the volume and price increase. It has not happened yet,
but will very very very very soon.

For those who are wondering what Sosmartinov is asking,
a broker whose clients own a majority of shares has changed
clearing firms. Their old clearing firm lent the shares out to be shorted. Their new clearing firm does not allow shorting and does
not lend out shares. This has been a major complaint by the Dog Pound here at SI - some looked into shorting GUMM but can't find any shares!
(They say Zicam has no big clinicals to back them up and its a fraud - duh, they are in the middle of clinicals at two major universities and everyone who has used Zicam for a cold gives unequivocal testimonials, so there is something to it. Clinicals will give the 'scientific proof' in October!)
zicam.com

(Bill Wexler shorted a tiny amount at 12 13/16 - lets see how this pans out <g>) Dan has put Bill in his place so many times, and all Bill can do is use the nonsubstantive shorting lible abusive vocabulary. Some of Bill's strong followers have even questioned him after they did DD. They have not shorted it. Their discussions even convinced some to go long because of ZICAM's potential.)

Who would want to be short GUMM if Joe Kernan mentioned the clinicals in October and the publication of them in a major scientific journal?
That's convincing enough to make SI shorters want to be long the stock, at a cheap price, in advance. However, Bill Wexler wants to be short at that time, and is short, and his price is 12 13/16 (he could only find a few shares)....lol
Keep track of this investment for him <g>

The old clearing firm has given the shorts notice that they are required to cover. I do not know the specific date they have to cover but must be soon, since the transition to the new firm is about to take place. Hope this helps. Look for it to set new highs even before the short covering takes place, imo.

Where can you buy ZICAM this coming fall season? Look here: EVERYWHERE! biz.yahoo.com
