LOL. That is because your account total is too low. Money talks and walks (whereever it wants to go) in this business. That earlier poster, with all the membermarks, appeared fairly successful, and perhaps therefore able to short the stock immediately after the approval announcement's rise (using his real time charting knowledge to guide the trade execution point) and then use his posting expertise to help drive his short profit home.

I have no problem with him doing that, I just object to the shell game that is continually being played by some of the players. Also, often overlooked, there is a really good-looking young company here that was forced into accepting a very low hostile takeout bid.

We were routinely talking about $5 to $10 per share on this thread until the shocking initial unsolicited bid ($0.38/share) was announced. It was only a little while later that the extent of the damage done by the market manipulation by the hostile claimjumper became apparent in aurc's acceptance of the counter-counter low bid offer. They were obviously strapped for the cash necessary to complete the ramp up of production. Their capital market was taken away from them. Shorting, naked and otherwise, was a key tool in the implementation of the takeover of this company. Longtime holders saw digits disappear from the left side of the decimal point in the pps of the future; into the pockets of the claimjumper.

And now certain others (perhaps including the claimjumper itself) persist in trying to rob us of our meager gains almost accomplished to the right side of that same decimal point.

Give me a break. Just go away. You know who you are.

spooky42alien - Shorting, or should I say naked shorting, is what got AURC got on the RegSHO list for 15 of 18 months. Some very interesting info on naked short selling:

spooky42alien - harder for the retail customer, but not impossible, but quite easy for hedgefunds and those with overseas accounts. Have you checked out the links on naked short selling?
