First off...let me say this.....I am not addressing you as the poster....just saying this in general ....I am not a "Monkster", "Monk Believer" ....." Den Member"....or whatever else they call themselves these days....or before.....and I believe I was taken on a few of his plays while paying my tuition in this nasty world of trading pinks. But before all the FLD crap started. Thanks to Rain, I saw the light long before I got involved in that crap.

Now....In Theory, it could be done, and they did do it on one play.
IF the share structure is known
IF the team is strong and committed to not selling
IF the company "plays ball" and doesnt sell into the buying, and holding.
IF it wasnt against the law to manipulate stocks
IF the universe was perfect and the stars all aligned....lol

Monk is a smart guy....no doubt. He and the clan took advantage of many folks IMO but, you've heard the old saying..."give the devil his due"

Folks, I hope, learned from this. The folks that lost money for sure did, the folks on the sidelines, I hope did, so that when the next "Monk" comes along, and there will be many, are wise enough to see it. In a way, WT was another....had a HUGE following, and this board helped expose him.

Nothing is free these days, you have to work for it....if you think you'll sit behind a PC and play stocks all day and make a million...you're fooling yourself. You might win one or two, but you'll loose more than you make till you learn the game.

I see it ALL the time now. MM's short stocks all day, everyday, and every stock that has any volume. I try now call'm as I see them....last one....MSOA....folks just refuse to see legitimate D&D, and the truth. Nodummy, and a few others here, besides myself... tried to tell them, but no, They'd rather throw hard earned money into plays with sneaky CEO's, Ihub alias's they think are helping them to make money- all the while those same guys& gals are selling their shares to them, promoters blasting e-mails to buy, when they are selling, and, the folks that hired them are selling. What a world eh??

Think about this...think of all the folks you know from here on the hub, break them down...2 categories....good, and bad, step back and take a long hard look. Look at the world your kids, and their kids....your grandchildren have to look forward to. A lot of the folks now are unemployed, some taking their last earned money to play this game....risky....yes, stupid...well...in my opinion....yes....because I know they'll lose it.

Guess I'm just venting, maybe someone will read this and it will make sense and open their eyes...I'll go back to the corner, sit and read all the posts like I usually do...but cudo's to you guys exposing the bad ones.....keep it up.
