Radim, MskiHntr & Al You can not borrow BB stocks. Are you sure? Perhaps I'll type the article completely and post this weekend. I'm sure I can trust my Broker DLJ with my certificates, ROTFL. One more quote, as I have to head out to the Cape for a launch simulation tonight. " The original mandate is to protect the public. Over time, the mandate becomes protect the interest of the industry (read Brokerage). The SEC applies more lenient policies to major brokerage firms. It allows some brokerage firms to ignore the Law. It defends the brokerage industry from outside and foreign incursions. These polices are not always in your best interest." Theres more that gets to the point on shorting, but it's to long to type now. Well one more short one: "You cant be certain that they short U.S. OTC. Thus, the brokerage firm could sell short stocks trading in Africa, S. America, or Asia. However, I'd bet they primarily sell short American stocks." The article The Good, The Bad & The Ugly is written by William Cate. Forget sending comments to Harry for e-mailing, since some believe different. I'll take the heat through E-mail.
