Providing liquidity is nothing more than selling and buying naked or shares that shouldn’t exist. I’ve disagreed with this for quite sometime. See your bears will always tell you there are no shorts because the data on short interest. But the real shorting is done thru short volume and dark pool. I think with all the corruption going on, that dark pool has been greatly exacerbated and taken advantage of by hedge funds. Think what would happen if the entire otc market was margin called. HCMC I believe that their patent was infringed and I also believe that Phillip Morris products produce combustion.
