Steve Forbes: "We will return to a gold-based monetary system. I don't think we'll go back to a 1920s or 20th century-style gold standard. But I think monetary policy will be tied to the price of gold, which manifestly it is not today. So, yes, a gold-based system is coming back, and it will be good!"

Sure looks like our divy shares are going to have a very bright future with a return to the gold based monetary system. Go FFGO!!!

The price of gold has nothing to do with anything here.

Why people bring it up is a mystery to me....

AlanC, The company has given the short sellers enough time to cover and the short sellers have employed just about every tactic known to invetsors to help them cover and/or to load up and go long themselves, IMO. All of the 8-K's and the delays will play into FFGO's filing favor when those with money, power, and influence try to get FINRA and the DTCC in their side.

Good to be long and looking forward to what lies ahead.

but I remember another stock that had a similar situation where the DTC washed its hands and put the onus on the brokerage firms. You should have seen some of the excuses the brokerage firms came up with, they were hysterical.

The whole thing was hysterical. You can hardly blame the brokerages; it was a real pain for them to process all those cert requests. And that, of course, is why they no longer accept Pinky certs for deposit.

But in the end, you all DID get those certs. Nooooo squeeze.
