Complaints to regulatory agencies haven't stopped the practice of undeclared short selling. However, one way companies can protect themselves is to recommend to shareholders that they take physical delivery of their stock certificates. When physical delivery of stock certificates is demanded by a significant number of shareholders, the creators of nonexistent stock can be squeezed. The short sellers won't have stock certificates to deliver and thus they will cause losses for them and will cause them to move their undeclared short activities elsewhere. -------- The present RMIL special situation has to do with the above comments and has nothing to do with Type 1 or Type 2 (cash/margin) accounts. We are not talking about legal shorting we are talking about blatant selling on nonexistent shares to flood the market. Thus keeping the price of a stock down and to terminal short it at the same time. If a terminal short is made (stock value = $0) then the shorts or market makers never have to worry about coving their shorts or extra shares that they flooded the market with. This is why every shareholder must demand delivery of their certificates! Riley G

Forwarded message. - Why brokers don't want to get you your certificates: The TA will never see a request for a non-existent share. All the TA does is change names and numbers on already existing paper. The TA will never get a "request" for certificates that doesn't include the certificate that is being "name-changed". When your broker asks the TA to issue you a cert (via the DTC), the broker also has to "represent" a street named cert that can be converted and issued to you. By asking the TA to issue you a cert, the broker is basically saying that the brokers firm "has" that share, and is now signing it over to you. This is where the fun begins: Your broker can't ask the TA to change the names from "street" to "you" if there isn't a "street" to change. The TA just changes names on paper. There has to be something to change FROM. Your broker can't ask the TA to issue a cert on a "non-existent" share. Lets say you bought at .50, and your broker credited your account with a thousand shares. Now, the price is two bucks, and you ask for certs. If your broker didn't actually have those shares in inventory, to honor your cert request he has to get his hands on some shares to ask the TA to reissue in your name. That costs him (or his firm) some money. ($1500.00). He doesn't want to spend the money!!! THATS WHY ITS SO IMPORTANT TO HOUND YOUR BROKER UNTIL YOU GET YOUR CERTS. I hope this helps some understand why their brokers keep losing paperwork and misspelling names. In other news: That lawsuit is the funniest thing I've ever seen. I would be so embarrassed to have signed my name to that document. I also appreciate being provided on a silver platter all the information needed for a healthy class action suit. OVIS and her shareholders jobs are getting easier every day.
