There has been no recent paid pump on CPOW that I have seen. I made a point of getting myself on all of the freebie paid pump mailing lists and set google and yahoo finance alerts on this stock. If anyone mentioned CPOW I did not see it.

I'm a little burned out and now feeling some confusion on this shorting issue. I need to revisit this matter tomorrow with a fresh eye. One thing that does not make sense to me is why in 2 weeks this stock has attracted 5.5 million short sales with no pumping going on. This is a monetary value of let's say an average of 10 cents over the past 2 weeks = $550,000 plus the cost to short sell a penny stock (commissions) which I am not sure is all that cheap to do.

IDK it really seems like A LOT to me. Why THIS stock which is a relatively small almost easy to overlook company gets so much attention on short sales. It's WEIRD to me, honestly. How many stocks are trading on the OTC and Pinks? Are there really that many investors out there short selling small companies like this on their own without any "tips" to do so?

To me if it is not Lebed or Sykes orchestrating this at this time (I am not ruling that out just because neither has brought up this stock in awhile) then WHO is generating that kind of interest in shorting our little Saskatchwan company? How much is market maker naked shorts?

It may not be possible to ascertain the answers but I am trying.

Good luck to CPOW investors.

It may be a silly question, but when exactly was he talking about? Did he receive the money recently?
