You do realize how MMs transact certain pink stocks ??? Essentially an MM can short 100% then buy the share to transact a retail order. Fintel, OTC short report, whatever site does not show a true short position. Finra reports those twice a month…..

“For market makers with a customer order to sell, they will temporarily sell short (which gets published to the tape as a media transaction for public dissemination) and then immediately buy from their customer in a non-media transaction that is not publicly disseminated to avoid double counting share volumes.”

If you haven't learned yet, most posts on a message board are in the writer's opinion. All of my posts are in my opinion (IMO)......do your Due Diligence (DD) and make up your own mind!
