I know this sounds bizarre, but its probably because the SEC has told them, not to. <<<

OR THERE ARE NO STOCKS AVAILABLE!

The float on this stock is relatively small. My broker does not have any available to short. The small number of these shares on the market is one of the reasons for its rapid rise...there is just not enough to go around.

I posted all parts of the 10Q I felt were relevant. I cannot find anything positive in the 10Q except maybe revenue growth. I likely am predisposed to the negative but did try to be impartial.

It was clear in the 10Q that all acquired companies are loosing money and that dilution of the company's stock was used for acquiring these money loosing firms.
