Rick I do believe your intentions are honorable and thank you for posting here and writing as a Street contributor.

That being said, the long community is in a different boat than the options community. Furthermore, BOTH sides are sensitive to any potential "sheep scaring" at the moment.

The impact of today's article on TheStreet would be MUCH more beneficial to investors were they to have read it when CCME was at $19 to $23, not AFTER a short attack.

While I have recently added to my long position in CCME, I did so by maintaining a constant percentage of high risks holdings in my portfolio by simultaneously selling an equivalent value of other OTC stocks that were already considered in the highest risk category.

CCME is not marginable by most brokerages at this moment anyway, so whatever your long holdings are, the stock direction won't affect margin equity thresholds.
