jimmy I have tried to explain to these negativos.
The short is on the books of the brokers. And auditors are corrupt as we have seen with Enron. Why not corrupt here too ??
All share credits in clients accounts must be covered by paper certs somewhere. No sweat. 100,000 credits should always be deliverable with a paper cert for 100,000 shares. But we are saying that this cannot be done now. There are more credits on the books than there are paper certs left to back them up. That is why right now that the brokers who are short MUST stall client requests for certs. They dare not crack those big certs that they have. The dam will break. Can I - gump - prove that ? Of course I can't. But I believe that the T F can and will prove it. This cert pull has been a phenomenal success. Never before in the market history has there been a cert-pull exercise that got to this near 90 % mark. Those big certs will take a huge bite out of the balance that we all can see is not accounted for. And then .. how many does the T F have on its list of those who can't get delivery ? The brokers dare not risk having their books examined. The short game is over for them no matter what route they decide to take now.
