Dan, What I'm more concerned about is ever-increasing number of outstanding shares of stock, most of which I suspect is being sold at market and pressuring the stock down. One big question for me is who owns all the preferred shares and is converting them into common shares and selling. Is it beyond anyone's wildest imaginings that it might be our friends at FIG? It is hard for me to accept the idea that at .16/.18 there are people out there with confidence and conviction that this stock will go down rather than up. In other words, at this price shorting, in my mind, is as risky (if not more) than buying long. What do you (or anybody on this thread) think? Is there a good reason to short XECOM now? Let me know; I might be interested. TJS

TJS & Dan: You are absolutely correct. XECM's lack of performance has been due to the fact that this stock is being shorted. That is why I ask for all share holders to ask for the delivery of their shares. It is beyond me to express our frustration to see how the stock can underperform with such strong fundamentals in place (e.g. bright management team, growing business, strong balance sheet, etc.) in one of the strongest bull markets of all time. Shorts would love to short anything and regretfully XECM has been their main target for the past 2 years, an that is the main reason for XECM's lack of performance. Again that is why I ask ALL share holders to ask for the delivery of their shares. So PLEASE go ahead and BUY XECM at these dirt cheap low prices and show the shorts who is in charge by making sure the shares you own are delivered to you. At these prices XECM is practically being given away for free, so BUY and watch how the stock will reach $100/shr very very very soon after which it will do a 2 for 1 split. GO XECM. SF
