OT HOMS is a highly manipulated stock, like KKD. Anthony (equity investigations) has it listed as a GTZ (go to zero) stock because of extremely questionable accounting methods and practices. Have you been to their site? Very annoying pop ups constantly. Membership fees and mostly banner ad revenue. When it made the double top a few weeks ago at 37, I heard numerous analysts touting it on CNBC on the very merits Anthony had pointed out was the manipulation spin employed, but shorting is contrary to my emotional nature, and I did not. I know this is not the thread for this, but since we're on the subject, let me mention NLI. From a FA perspective, it doesn't get worse than that. Most of that 17 B debt is at 17-18 percent interest, from what I've read. They have cash for only another quarter or so at present rates, but they continue to borrow. Apologies to the rest of the thread for this. Just had an impulse to respond when I saw HOMS mentioned.
