Cytodyn Inc (CYDY)

This is again an unfounded rumor.

I have worked in Investment banking before working for myself, and no, what you wrote is just not factual.

If you can borrow shares and short them, it makes no sense to use a naked short sell. Why commit a fraud when you can just get the same result legally.

Margin requirements is not a good reason - any short-seller who leverages so much his positions that he would need to workaround margin requirement is dead anyway. I have had many shorts go x2-x10. This is part of the business. Eg, KODK went x4 against me before I made a TON of money on it. I have had many (many) like that. Consequently, successful short-sellers have to be very careful with leverage (among other things, like the presence of a catalyst also) and always keep dry powder (capital) on the side.

The only viable reason to use naked short-sells is when you can't borrow shares anymore. THERE, it can be very juicy because that's where the return is maximal on short positions. But this has not been the case most of the time for Cytodyn. Again, I have had no issue borrowing shares most of the time.

You didn't know this stuff obviously. As for your Napoleonic references, I happen to be French, trained in a military school founded by Napoleon, who celebrates several times a year his accomplishments. Not my thing clearly, I don't revere that, but I think I can spot fakers there too. Sorry kid to destroy the black ninjas fantasy. Cytodyn is a fraud.
