Any experts can comment here: Doug Furth: FINRA's constituency consists of marketmakers and broker dealers, who ostensibly stand to lose if the company is able to successfully emerge from this cloud of controversy. They will do so if they are short or perhaps if they house short positions that could conceivably default in the event of a significant increase in the price of the stock.
FINRA is protecting these institutions. That means that they are siding with the shorts, either directly or indirectly.
If you take a good look at FINRA's history they are historically biased against the retail long investors. Put simply, they are NOT your friend. And they are NOT friendly to the company, either.
