The GUMM stock fraud. Your hysterical rantings here and on Yahoo message boards about the product flying off the shelves are amusing - but I can assure you that you're not fooling anyone. According to my own sources and research, Zicam has not been moving any product off the shelves except in "token" quantities (the EXACT words from one of my retail contacts). . In other words there's no push-through and no reorders. So basically, the crooks at GUMM have made initial shipments to some retailers...period. Other stock frauds such as Enamelon (ENML) have used similar promotional techniques to give the impression that small initial sales (some on consignment!) to "big name" retailers mean that the product has gained market acceptance. Zicam is a worthless quack medication. The management of GUMM are a bunch of crooked bastards and your stock will eventually go into the toilet. Count on it.
