IMO, the only reason some firms are placeing restrictions on the stock are due to volume problem calls on the symbol. I just spoke with my back office and they have no idea about the stock or would have no reasons what-so-ever to restrict it. Reason I think is because most likely I am the only one at my firm who owns it. I called an market maker to see if I could get a handle on what the mms are talking about on this one and will let you know when she calls back.
