I would like to add that I do not consider naked short selling to be an event of recent times. Instead, I believe it was a part of the past, on a grand scale, with the expectation of company failure or bankruptcy. The quantity of illegally borrowed shares may have been so vast that even the recent significant share dilution might not suffice to cover those positions adequately with authentic shares. While this is speculative on my part, I hold this belief. Should there be any pre-notice of forthcoming corporate action changes and should a notable short squeeze occur, it would lend credence to my speculation.
