Lamont,
One more time I asked two direct questions:
1) Where is the evidence Hellix stock is being naked shorted now in the year 2022 or even in recent years? I'm taking you at face value and am asking you to provide evidence to back up your claim.
2) What is to be gained by naked shorting Hellix stock which as far as we know is a company which exists only on paper, isn't operating, and I'll add its stock is highly difficult to buy even if the general public wanted to.
If you can't provide the evidence of naked shorting which allegedly occurred now or in recent years, and it appears you can't, just say so. That's fine. If you can't answer #2 that's also fine.
I know what shorting is, I know what naked shorting is, I know naked shorting is illegal but goes on anyway because the various regulatory agencies are compromised. I know what calls, puts, straddles, strangles, dividends, short-squeezes, implied volatility, market cap, etc are. I also know the price of physical precious metals are determined by the paper price and there is no real price discovery as a result. I didn't buy my first gold or silver coin, stock, or ETF last week.
You need not forward any more investopedia-esque definitions of basic terms which do not answer the two Hellix-specific questions I posed. These are red-herrings.
I've been in this space 14 years and as previously mentioned I was a listener to Bob Chapman and presently am a regular listener to people like Weir, Morgan, Holter, Kientz, Kirby, Mannarino, Marcus, and others Fox Business or CNBC wouldn't dare interview. So stating something as sophomoric as the price of physical metals is determined by the paper price isn't exactly news to me but even if it was it doesn't answer the two Hellix questions above.
Be well.
