it has been proven MANY times JBII is not heavily shorted. (It's not even on the regsho!) The only place I see borrows to short JBII had only a maximum of 2,000 shares and that is no longer available! No big short would short this because they can't find borrows and this stock is way too thin to short because you cannot cover easily.

So to think this is some sort of bear raid is pretty amateuristic. Financial restatement PR and they think the tank is a bear raid. hilarious!

In today's day and age bear raids happen by people who are positionless and just doing it either for sport, or because they are invested/work for a competitor, or just downright ignorance or even just being malicious for the same reason an internet virus is created.

JBII has been the victim of a bear raid, and everybody knows it who isn't an amateur. I say the word victim though loosely -- only those dumb enough to sell at $1.50 or .75 when the first bear raid started are the victims.

Bear raid
The illegal practice of attempting to push the price of a stock lower by taking large short positions and spreading unfavorable rumors about the target firm.

While I agree about the lack of short selling and rarely even mention that, it's blatantly obvious the bear raid in the form of unfavorable and downright false rumors. Class action lawsuits for example by PIPE investors? Please. I sure hope nobody is dumb enough to fall for such amateurish nonsense.
