Like i said, it never works out for shareholders. I have never seen a forward split or a divedent 1for1 ever turn out good for shareholders. It's just a way to keep shareholders at bay so they can continue to sell shares. Sad you guys can't see that.

FINRA has a difficult time monitoring the OTCBB market. A lot of pinkies exploit this anyway they can. There are simply too many loopholes for FINRA.

preferred share are only handled by the company. The T/A only handles common or if any other type of share they must be registered for trading. The company has complete control over preferred.It is also the company that takes back the preferred and cancels them, issues a legal opinion and then a T/A will issue the common.The T/A never gets the preferred and then issues common.
