LOL . oh **** indeed.

On another note , I found something interesting the other day ... it was in an SEC update report filed on 11/19/07 and it was in part a report on some of the things the SEC looked into after that Overstock CEO really got mad at the FTD shorting going on in his company's stock.

Anyway , the SEC compiled a list , which was accurate as of 9/21/07 , of the Top All Time 185 Companies on Reg SHO Threshold list since the inception of that list.

Of course , OSTK was number one lol.

And lo and behold , amongst all of these largish companies like OSTK , Krispy Kreme, Taser , NovaStar , Netflix , SunPower , LaZBoy etc .... nestled snugly 'twixt and 'tween were no less than 8 Yorkville Clients.

I thought that was interesting in light of what we often hear about how hard it is to short a sub-dollar or even a sub-penny otcbb stock.

Can you short an otcbb stock? Anyone here ever do it? Who can?

p.s. Got a spreadsheet on the subject if anyone's interested in seeing it , will finish it and post it somewhere before too long.
