This paragraph from the reply, provides guidance with overt utility. "Unlike an increase in a corporation’s declared “short interest” even a mild increase in FTD levels might imply the intent to defraud. The benchmark to evaluate in regards to “intent to defraud” issues is the increase in FTD levels above the historical norms for that particular corporation. Perhaps even more impressive than Bear Stearn’s 145-fold increase in FTDs is the fact that this represented a 57-fold increase in FTDs above the previous all-time “high water” mark. Only corrupt Wall Street bankers, “deeply captured” regulators and conflicted SROs in the midst of a gigantic cover-up process could possibly refer to statistics like these as mere “background noise” that should be filtered out.” current market systemics indict the present system to the above described bottom line. Systems have run amuck. Compartmentalists hiding behind plausible deny ability will begin breaking ranks. It will be like the last man standing sort of thing, as these issues are not part of mainstream headlines, the action is occurring beneath and out of view. One can not make a value judgement about this trend because of missing information. But, knowledge has emerged from the body of the complicit, which suggests self interest is shifting from the sustained intent camp to the next camp, which is now fully reconnoiterd. unwinding is complex, accept at the individual level...its simple self interest.....payment has no monetary value when protection of reputation from common understanding, is about to unfold all over you. The Bought and paid for, discovers retreat, and withdraw, as the stakes change within self preservation. Hope rings eternal.....which is the message, the outside is the next side.
