If you look at any number of tweets from Ham compared to the people you keep calling "Ham" you will see how silly it is to keep pulling that lol
Show me where they have sold any restricted shares...you can't and they haven't..end of story
Yawn..here we go again...big difference between RESTRICTED shares and UNRESTRICTED. Restricted shares allow a company to make acquisitions vs taking on toxic financing so that's good to have and doesn't affect the float

Wes didn't come up empty...the same type spoofing data from the same source was used in the NWBO case where judge just ruled basically " MM's need to produce the trade data" and I wouldn't say it's out of the question for a another case to arise for GTII/shareholders/stakeholders at some point regarding spoofing
YOU ARE WRONG AGAIN lol..Go back and read the case(which you obviously have not) or Google "Alpine executed sales in 230 stocks quoted on the OTC markets, and 5 stocks that were exchange-listed" this was from the Wells notice investigation and in the record for the Alpine vs FINRA case. I'll summarize your other weak arguments by saying out of all the times they tried to sue the agencies over the years in multiple states they won just 1 time. I would read the book "naked short and dirty" since you're living in LA LA hedgie land regarding what a concentrated net short position is, and means. Maybe talk to people who have/do work there recently? Alpine couldn't even calculate their net capital correctly during the time of fall 2022 NSCC issues. That was from someone who helped develop the entire infrastructure for the net capital requirements for a huge broker. So he knows what's up. I didn't say FINRA had authority over NSCC lol...everyone knows its SEC at the top and its brothers and sisters under them
"Don't confuse FINRA with being true" ? LOL ok we'll trust Alpine? You? ..everyone whose been around a while or knows people in the industry knows what Alpine was and what they did. More importantly though From the wells notice investigation:
"Alpine executed sales in 230 stocks quoted on the OTC markets"
"Alpine did not act as bona fide market maker in any of these securities at issue"
"In more than 97% of the 5,598 instances, Alpine maintained either just one sided quotes (i.e. only a bid or ask) or maintained "unpriced quotes"
Funny out of all those 230 stocks that a GTII short would trip them up(and don't say they forgot to call it in because it was over several days and the borrow rate was over 1200%) Anyone looking at this situation and the 40 years of lies by Alpine(including their off shore ties) and the Kramers literal BILLIONS of unregistered shares on top of seeing TRILLIONS of dollars in FTD'S in the market in general and doesn't wonder where exactly is all this money being funneled to needs their head examined.
Beginning with "miscalculation" of their net capital requirements, them saying they could pay the NSCC fees imposed,
then oops No they couldn't to not knowing how to do the math on 10 million in Utah. Every single time they get caught and let off the hook..why kick them out now???? I mean REALLY think about it..we know who is in and runs FINRA and the NSCC etc but now? Why now? Common sense should tell everyone why.
Yes they always tend to list all of their evidence right away, BEFORE discovery right? LOL Give it some time like the FINRA case when they revealed the Wells notice investigation later on. And nobody expects an agency to come out and say "we found the Alpine naked shorts" that's not how investigations work #1 and #2 the original mention of GTII in the NSCC backtesting issue proceeding almost seemed to be put there on purpose??? Hmmm
I said USED to be...do you need me to break down and educate you as to what that means? And what capital letters and EMPHASIZING a word means? And FINRA was the one who said it.
"Alpine Securities was one of the largest clearing firms in the United States until 2018"
Google that and you can find the PR from FINRA
And I will say again and for the last time it's comical that you keep insisting Alpine had longs to cover the GTII short as well the cockememy excuse regarding trades not being "entered on time" have you looked at both the breakdown given by NSCC of the Backtesting Charges along with the FTD data for same time period? Over SEVERAL days. My guess is no because if Yes you're just gaslighting end of story
Dark Pool Market Maker Data March 2023#NakedShortsWar#ReleaseTheBlueSheets #SettletheTrades #RICO pic.twitter.com/xw2f4UYzIt

Go look at dark pool data for Alpine and do some basic math based on the fact that in 2023 they had about 300ish stocks they were clearing and that alone blows up your whole theory as there were billions of shares traded...YOU just don't get it..they don't(and many others) play by the rules. Why would they??? I have zero need to pick anyone's brain, especially the book smart people who say "this is how it works" meanwhile time and again funds get fined for mismarking trades and host of other things, naked short schemes get uncovered but but but but but is all we hear and nobody's buying it anymore. The good news is you won't be the judge,jury or executioner ;)
Im not avoiding your questions it's that they are based on false assumptions..the point is, you posting that just proves several points. The biggest one is nothing Alpine says cah be believed (read all 80+ documents)Why is Alpine which is essentially defunct now, still fighting all these agencies? Who is funding it with millions of dollars? Why didn't they put that loan money toward the 10 million they needed? Why did they misrepresent several times that they had that money and would put it up to stay compliant? Where have they washed trades to/through and where offshore and or domestically? THOSE are more questions that actually matter...and there are several more that are germane. There's no need to mention the few hundred names Alpine was involved in or GTII for that particular action so its a silly and false "smoking gun...its more a water pistol. All one has to do is look at other "cease to act" actions to see that. That particular action is not fact finding per individual stocks its blanket action. The funniest part was this whole thing was set afire by the "concentrated net short position" in GTII back in fall 2022. Why don't you Google that and look at what the definition of that term actually means. The NSCC I'm pretty sure can tell if there are really the "long" shares available to offset it tucked away as Alpine alleges. So to reiterate not one damn thing Alpine says or asserts can be trusted based on their record. There's a lot more going on here than you realize and you'll see that one day.
Saw it long ago Bernstein, its from the Alpine vs NSCC case and it doesn't prove a thing as previously stated except Alpine cant be trusted...NSCC along with FINRA, have both pretty well proven they can't rely on anything Alpine says or submits...especially math, this is also proven by reading the responses in that case from the other side by the way and the fact they issued the cease to act...but don't worry people above your pay grade who know how to track things down are on it and have been and who says Alpine even still has custody of said position? That wouldn't be too smart woukd it? Duh again and thanks for another nothing burger..I hear CNN is hiring
Again you should know how to "reply" to a post. If this is real you do understand that throughout it it says they CANNOT RELY on Alpine’s calculations just as I mentioned previously their net capital calculations were incorrect. But knowing who I know and what I know they will try(or have tried) everything to syndicate any naked positions off the real "books" which again, if this is real show are entirely inaccurate. And if they are being investigated now as John Hurry is by FINRA(As of Oct 23 when he tried to start a trust company outside of state from Alpine his application was turned down citing several reasons, one of which is he's being investigated by FINRA) no details would be divulged in any public documents (especially non public communications to the ones being investigated) duh!
So the answer is no you can't back up what your attempting to twist yet again. And it's not my job to look for or post your "proof" and if you call what you've posted in the past as "education" then it would only qualify for remedial gaslighting math and fud. If you really want to educate then why don't you explain the process to move short postions around and where all they can go? Then explain merely buying time to lock down and or hide assets? Actually wait, we don't need you to.
You want to put an actual link in there? because nothing comes up in a search for this cease to act for Alpine
https://www.loopnet.com/property/461-melwood-ave-pittsburgh-pa-15213/42003-0026M00056000000/
https://www.trulia.com/home/170-dorado-beach-e-dorado-pr-00646-2105676783
Here are two links. All you would have had to do is type in Google maps is search for the PR Address like you did for the PA address just copy and paste it and look at the little red flag. Also there are multiple options to search addresses but you picked something that wasn't updated or accurate.
Absolutely horrible DD..was this intentional? Lol...go to Loopnet and look up The Pittsburgh address and you can see the FRONT of the office building not the rear.
Then go on Google maps and look up the PR Address and you will see a very nice building with cars outside even.
Do more research and the PR building sold for about 7.8 million in 2022 I believe
And most startups won't be in skyscrapers anymore either as commercial real estate is slowly dying due to work at home covid conditions that stuck around. Look where Amazon started..in Bezos garage
But even having a biz address in a barn in a cornfield doesn't make it legal or ok to manipulate a companies stock price different ways
And why not use Google maps for both? Or a couple other sources?
That wouldn't fit the narrative..we know
Next Bridge Hydrocarbons reveals that short sellers have expressed interest in acquiring shares beyond the 2.65 million short shares reported by FINRA.$MMTLP

Naked shorting doesn't happen in OTC stocks, it's a fairytale conspiracy theory... blah blah blah. Wanted to say thanks to those who pump this bs narrative it only makes it clearer what's happening and by whom and its blowing up in their face for the world to see..so this is after tradestation admits they loaned out too many shares IN WRITING.

Lol he was 100% right about the warrants...that was 4 days before it squeezed up 7 more dollars from 9/27 share price duh.. lot of SH's with warrants never got them exercised by brokers but instead a run around(thus slowly down that $7 move up) Meanwhile one of the biggest offenders of the warrants problem Fidelity was begging for shares to loan at 1300% and then CTB was 1000%. Now brokers in the US cant/wont let the dividend shares trade or even get them for their customers. Canadian brokers have no issues though oddly. If you can't tell something is off then you're blind or don't WANT to see it
2006....and if 33 SEC lawyers hadn't left to go work on Wall Street then maybe investigations would be faster among other reasons. As we sit right now they take years to complete. If you read all the litigation trickling out every month you could see and understand that. Anything post Reg Sho is definitely relevant. We aren't going anywhere so we'll make sure this is eventually fixed so Americans won't keep getting robbed even worse. The countdown has begun and it started last night.
Not embarrassing at all as it all relates and most on here realize that. You keep forgetting NITE/Knight Capital
https://theintercept.com/2016/09/22/the-money-is-gone/
Do you not know how to reply directly? Lol You should call the SEC and tell them they wrongly used the terminology "naked short" but the entire playbook of how it's done is laid out in that complaint. 8 of the 10 stocks were not named. Very common of course.
Did you not read the Sabby Management LLC SEC action? For someone who keeps touting their Supreme knowledge you have your numbers flip flopped. Which I understand because you're a newbie to reality. Remember when you said that naked shorting doesn't happen in the OTC a have that note and who will syndicate it out to multiple parties you already have the answers to the test! Here is the Sabby Management action again and I'll post it for the mobile crowd separately. nd i immediately corrected the record with the Knight Capital OTC SEC action? And then I explained how many are doing this by using common sense and actually paying attention to what's happening and talking to real traders who have seen it and A. Not getting caught because of the SEC's budget,manpower issues, and lack of desire to expose them? And B. They can make 10 million and get a 1 million fine and no jail so sadly who wouldn't do it? Ringing a bell? The best part is when you actually typed out you have "exposed scams" lol. I wonder how many were just NS'd??? Either way it's shooting fish in a barrel..how easy and lazy a crusade. The company takes the financing and are told we will help you grow then they get NS'd into bankruptcy then all gains are tax free by the NS's. Just KNOWING they have that note and whose involved will syndicate it out and kill the company into bankruptcy making gains then tax free is like having the answers to the test! How easy! LMFAO
https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr-25746
The point was and is that its constant chaos and thievery with those put up on a throne..it's very simple to naked short..idiots do it every day. And of frontrunning and block trading OUTSIDE the open market is totally fine and just a "gray area" then why investigate? And if they didn't do it then why settle for such a large amount? Surely they wouldn't have spent $249 million to fight it? But go ahead kiss their feet..seems retail has more common sense and ability to see through BS than many here lol
JUST IN: Morgan Stanley, $MS, is close to an agreement to pay $200 million to $300 million to resolve an investigation into its employees’ handling of stock sales big enough to move the stock market.

There will not be any criminal charges against the bank, per Bloomberg.
https://www.investmentexecutive.com/news/from-the-regulators/ciro-aims-to-beef-up-short-selling-requirements/
OPE! There's another country cracking down...how many is that now? 5? More to come I'm guessing
#1 The guy that got caught bashing while shorting (short and distort) made multiple accounts to do so...he had his own little paid bashing scheme. Only A fool would think this doesn't happen all the time and on a grander scale.
#2 At some point in the near future you'll see more light shed on this when it's exposed in other ways...crime still in progress though
#3 Every experienced trader , and even new ones KNOW there are paid bashers...so kinda the opposite of what you're saying per usual.
https://fxnewsgroup.com/forex-news/regulatory/finra-fines-elevation-for-alleged-violations-of-rules-prohibiting-fraudulent-trading/
And of course...here we go again with another example
The issue is the vast majority of retail understands this now as they were educated to not have margin accounts but rather cash accounts and/or set very high GTC orders. Everyone also knows stock loan and PFO are the moneymakers. Robinhood would never exist without PFO. There have been days with 9 billion FTD'S and Reg sho list appearances for months at a time but yet heavily FTD'd stocks don't rise or get bought in. We constantly get huge brokers saying: Ooops we marked all of our sales wrong and our math hasnt been right for years(thus making all FINRA reported data incorrect) And then quarterly these FTD'S can be "grandfathered" in at better prices etc. You play that loose and fast with minimal repercussions, and you get where we are today. If you leave your window wide open and have $1,000,000 sitting next to the window and all the thief will get is a slap on the wrist for only $50,000 the burglar will take that money EVERY TIME. That's what this is about...that kills companies and kills the economy and is why we are continously loosing ground on other countries while we get robbed blind.
Yes I can read and so can everyone else here and elsewhere and everyone knows what's going on. We even called it amongst ourselves before this latest attack down. There were even some of the same dummies who came back to bash on Twitter from a year ago under a new handle. That's FACT not fantasy. Didn't even need AI to figure it out for some
The people with accounts in Canada have for some reason but not in the US yet. And everyone gets a completely different story as to why they can't turn a placeholder into a real share that's unrestricted. I would advise again researching the MMTLP and Tradestation situation currently and apparently since you never speak of it, the stock loan programs at brokers. Stock borrowing Utilization for GTII by the way is 100% and average duration of the loans is well over 100 days now...somehow though even at 100% today we have over 1.4 million available to short again up from 47k yesterday
https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr-23401
That's a silly and false statement..everybody knows of these schemes with paid bashers and they are easy to spot. Especially right before a stock starts to go down. The issue is the SEC is underfunded and slow so just like with the recent Sabby management LLC naked shorting scheme they uncovered they do one of these cases every so often, give a little slap on the wrist and it just continues. That's why there are groups and lawyers with complete investigation services now taking this up and quickly getting identities from different platforms. Wouldn't be surprised if they start offering cash rewards for those participating soon to flip like a pancake and give up all they know;)
Yes see the chart lol...and see the patterns from the past
As told to me directly by multiple traders who covered Hedge funds for years..that is correct... most if not all brokers and OTC even easier to do
That's actuality simply pointing out the message is erroneous, misleading and useless based on the disclaimer
Hilarious..now we are back on the bankruptcy bandwagon....and then it will be a halt or then a delist etc etc..I think if they have survived over 40 years in some form its doubtful any of these things come to fruition...also read the disclaimer on your precious DD website about the "probability of bankruptcy" you tout
"The Probability of Bankruptcy SHOULD NOT be confused with the actual chance of a company to file for chapter 7, 11, 12, or 13 bankruptcy protection"
None of the stories that people post here are "unrelated" if you actually read them. There are some that either don't read them thoroughly or at all but choose to comment. When some started "showing up" here directly after the run up in fall 2022 we were told "naked shorts in the otc don't exist" We posted the Knight capital story where SEC found they were naked shorting OTC stocks lol...so perhaps read the stories and links as they are consistently showing everything said that is a "conspiracy theory" for GTII is not and it's happening all the time and has for MANY years.
