Who asked for certificates this week?
Going to call your broker over the weekend?
Sure, it is easier to let someone else do this, and there is probably no downside to you if you don't. But if a large enough group starts asking, things might get interesting.
Either management is lying about everything, fooling Viacom, and pumping tons of money into advertising all to give the illusion that things are fine... Or, they are legit, there is under 100M shares in float, and the volume could only be due to something not quite on the up and up regarding the shares.
A five minute call to your broker. That is all it takes. Ask for, say, a quarter or half of you shares in certificates and shift the remaining shares to a cash account (not margin enabled).
