The tic factor effect may be small, but it will be far bigger than the elimination of the GFC. Neither of them will have any effect at all on penny stocks, especially those already revoked that were never naked shorted in the first place.
The "light" has been on for 4 years, chas. You just need to take off the blinders.
Sure, Chas. First Reg SHO was supposed to make every stinky Pinky out there run like Secretariat. Then it was the initiation of monthy short interest reports for OTCBB and Pink stocks.
Nothing happened. What makes you think anything will now, just because short interest will be reported twice a month?
