I've noticed this. Etrade has been showing the actual size of the bid and ask all week, and it has confirmed what I have thought for awhile. Small ask being maintained by the MMs to keep the price in check, but no volume because nobody will sell any blocks big enough to justify the commission to the average retail buyer.

On a different note, I was in charge of entertainment tonight for a visiting employee from the China based company who does most of my company's data entry work. I was thinking Atlantic City, a ballgame, etc. He only wanted to go to the mall to buy the US products that he cannot get in China. For dinner, he wanted "something American".

He had a very long list of orders for "American" products from all of his friends and family, so I believe he is more the rule than the exception.

And by the way, when we all ordered beers at dinner, he wanted WINE. When I asked why, his response was that he can get beer in China, but good wine is hard to find, and usually expensive.

I am more certain than ever that Frank is on to something here! I've got nothing but time to wait, and full confidence in Frank and GDHI.

Sorry, but that is incorrect. When FINRA refers to the "over the counter market" in the new rules, it is referring to OTCBB, OTCQX, OTCAB, AND pink sheets.

You may have noticed that the MM's have started displaying the SIZE of their orders. This is supposed to make life better for all because of this new MM transparency. We shall see.

It looks like there are 21,005,000 known shares left in the .0002's at this very moment. That makes sense because around the time when the new rules became effective there were about 47 million shares left in the .0002's.
