Don't you think it's time to recognize that there are scams on both sides of the aisle? There are some very legitimate companies that are listed on the German exchange. I've spoken to a couple who had nothing to do with the listing. Both and others have had some very strange trading patterns. I try to avoid "promoted" companies and stick with low o/s and low float companies. There is also the case of COVD, which is a very unusual case, probably the largest dollar volume stock on the OTC. Not recognizing schemes and scams on the short side is as bad as not recognizing that paid promoters are responsible for crap companies. It would be relatively easy to create fairer markets and eliminating scams and manipulative schemes on both sides, but out regulators are too lazy or incompetent or political to do so. Let's see what develops here. I would be careful about being short on some as this thing unwinds and draws more attention.
