does anyone know the truth about Pink Sheet Securities??? The fact of the matter is that NO ONE can forcably short sell a pinky. it is impossible... any and all orders are taken by the MM. all offers to buy, and all offers to sell go through the MM ONLY. the MM can buy and sell at whatever price they want. they can honor your offer to buy/sell, or they can pass-you-by like yesterday's roadkill. other MMs, the SEC, and big boys like money managers may be able to influence the MMs, but no one can short a security unless there is an "open market" for said security. and the pinks are far from open...
