You are almost as much fun as Eddy Blinker. OK "Bink", you are now going to educate me on the mechanics of short-selling. 1) Explain in detail how short-sellers can "manipulate" the price of the REFR stock fraud down to $2 (this will be fascinating...in light of the uptick rule). 2) You mentioned that VRSN (a stock that will eventually be trading <5) and the REFR stock fraud (a stock that will eventually trade <1) went up on a "horrible market day". How/why did this happen? (I happen to know...do you?) 3) Extra credit: Explain why - with a nearly perfect and uninterrupted histroy of being wrong...you continue to embarrass yourself.
