These Canadians stocks are getting way too scary. I actually feel safer holding some Nasdaq BBs. Who would have thought of this? You can't sleep on these stocks anymore. I wonder how that one SEC employee in Vancouver is doing. He's probably given up. Lola:)

Fuddle, that was an excellent link...Thanks... For those that don't understand how short positions are created in these pennies and then they are not covered in the open market, these three paragraph's explain it in a nutshell... His firm bought 800,000 shares at 25 cents, with warrants to buy another 800,000 at 35 cents each. He was also personally granted options to purchase 340,000 shares at 19 cents each. Almost immediately, Smith began selling the shares, often in advance of converting the warrants or exercising the options. In one instance, his firm was short by 513,000 shares before exercising enough warrants to cover the shortfall. By the end of August, he and his firm had sold all 1.6 million shares and warrants, and had exercised all but 40,000 of his options and sold the underlying shares at prices up to 67 cents. ...ed

koanhead, I read the same Baines story but I say it as bad reporting with a one-sided rehash of old news. The real news on ipz is that IMO (and PHPI) ipz is a class tech Peter Lynch play. Why? Use the free email fax service like a do for work and you a flawless packaging of PC software and great quality images of your faxes in your inbox. That is service! I'm cynical enough to almost believe Baines is doing a reverse pyscho play here. How? Well some of the pop Foolish investing books I believe calls for "negative news" to confirm a rule breaker. So could Baines be making a sacrific here to setup Rule Breaker preconditions around ipz? A possibility? I'm watching this one for the last week's excellent momo to return. I was surprised by the relatively quiet Monday action. There is AGM today. PHPI pink789
