Here is my Question... I bought GBDX upon a friends recom,,, and about 3 weeks after I bought it, it almost doubled...( this was a couple of years ago) now from what I understand it is a scam? Is this a FOR REAL company? I ned to know...so I can take out my 10.00 and take a 990.00 loss on my taxes...yep I only put $1,000 in but at that time there was an announcement about new legislation on the import of UNCUT diamonds and the stock soared... Has there ever been a NY office? someone shed light...I am honestly in the dark on whether to wait it out or take the tax loss....HELP......
