Yeah that is pretty cool how they do that. Kinda like running the deck back at a black jack table. Then ya call people at home and tell them to put money back cause they are now on margin. Pretty easy to do if you read lots of comic books as I suspect of Obwon. SEC has the power to run back trades for two years under a yellow sun. Under a red sun or when exposed to green Kryptonite they can only sue ya..

Hi jbIII; Just as a theoretical sort of question... Suppose the SEC were to shut a company down, causing the shares to become worthless. Wouldn't that be damaging to the shareholders by definition? Would you call that protecting the shareholders? *Just goes to show how these Paid Bashers get their definitions of who is helping whom all confused!!!* -- Carl It reminds me of how recently the Albanian government shut down the pyramid companies that were taking over the economy. The result wasn't pretty at all...
