The other thing, I wonder (No disrespect to the shorts). How long before these short accounts start calling in margins? I'm sure we are all averaged at under a dollar and you are all seeing the same 459% increase since December. I am very surprised that these shorts are allowed to keep it up. Is there something that I am missing? I was under the impression that margins are supposed to be called by now?

You are headed in the right direction! NYSE and AMEX are older and NASDAQ is newer as a market. For years, NYSE and AMEX were IT and the crem dela crem of stock listing. Then during the .com phase and PC blowup I believe that is when NASDAQ become pretty much the equal over those years but more focused on the tech sector. Overall though, they have similar requirements at this point stock and financials wise to qualify. Not sure how much the cost per year is in comparison. Hopefully that make sense.
