Can anyone here reconcile how these tables of data on size of stockholdings don't show all the accounts that posters have here, so many of them being more than 250,000 shares for example and therefore about the same or larger than the "institutional" and company official shareholders (aside from SEO)?

Seems like E*Trade and the likes don't show up either as house holders or other nominees for privacy purposes.

Hence there are so many omissions that these listings are rendered virtually meaningless.

Hi Majic - The only difference are the Julius Baer 2.12M shares within the institutional holding section.

I can only GUESS that Julius Baer is not subject to the same reporting requirements or (obviously) the two links are pulling from different databases?

FWIW, it seems like the 4 names on the nasdaq link are investment firms (and also included on your link) and Julius Baer is a mutual fund, curiously which specializes in W African holdings.

Regardless - IMO - the only thing that really matters is the Q to Q changes within both links. Clearly, the AOL link is much more comprehensive - thanks!

Also good to see the BOD holding 200K+ shares EACH.

Maybe the FAB 60M shares are behind the VERT, LFCM MM games of the past & present...who knows!

John.
