Warning about disclosing to ANYONE your shares and their location!!!! This is part of a larger article about shorts written in the Stock Detective by Leroy Stockman: Let me discuss why short selling is a professional activity rather then a small investor activity. It is a professional activity because the pros know something you don't. Usually they know the exact status of the outstanding, float and ownership of most of the shares of stock. For example, if a brokerage house brings a stock to the market, they know everything. Often, they house the treasury stock, the original owners stock, and even many of the investor's stock. Thus they are in a great position to short the stock knowing that they have plenty of shares to use should they need it. And they know the nature of the buying and selling of the stock. And let's face it, buying demands cash so buying is more apt to dry up then selling so being in a short position is more advantageous then being in a long postition from a brokerage house's perspective. CYMI will explode to the upside on 1)a Company stock buyback, 2)all shareholders take physical delivery of their shares, 3)the explosive underlying fundamentals and earnings growth at CYMI or 4)some combination of all of the above. Be very careful about disclosing your shares and where they are because there are gonna be some real desperate people looking for shares. These guys will try any ruse to further their purposes. Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~~^^ [6.6] ....> [_]
