On the subject of being paid for owning NWBO. I've admitted I am by allowing Fidelity to lend my shares, but I never have been paid for posting. I believe I'll be paid very nicely for owning NWBO, just as all longs will be paid, because the share price moves up dramatically.
Frankly if we're not bought out, I'd practically guarantee we'd see $30 in 5 years or less, that's a one hundred banger from where we are today. While my average price isn't $.30 or less, it's below $.40 now, so I doubt if it will be much longer after it reaches $30 that I have a hundred banger. That's how I'll be paid by NWBO.
Actually I'm probably wrong about that, if I count the money I'll be getting by lending the shares, and Fidelity continues to borrow them, I will probably have a hundred banger by the time we're at $30, perhaps before that.
You can say lending shares supports the shorts, but they're the legal shorts. I don't believe the legal shorts are nearly the problem the illegal shorts are, i.e. naked shorts and in many cases the MM's themselves playing their games.
You know what's being faced with legal shorts, that position is public knowledge. What's unknown is whether the MM's are short millions of shares, or tens, or hundreds of millions. We know of their spoofing, but I believe they're guilty of far more than that.
I'm willing to take the criticism for permitting shares to be borrowed, anyone with margin in a margin account may be doing the same and not being paid for it. I can take that money to the bank monthly regardless of whether NWBO's up, or down. I frankly don't know exactly how Fidelity did it, but I was permitted to vote all my shares, not just those which weren't being borrowed.
I frankly don't know who, if anyone, is being paid to pump, but anyone who's bashing is either short themselves, or being paid to do what they're doing. Daytrading probably is another way the stock is traded, true day traders buy, and sell during the day, but hold no shares at the end of the day. Most day traders I've known do profit in the short run, but occasionally get killed by just one really bad trade. In time, most have abandoned the practice. No doubt, NWBO has some identifiable trading practices most days, but I don't know they're that predictable. I know of no specific reason for Friday's trading other than perhaps the growing awareness of something happening sometime soon.
