If that company can not get a loan or float a bond or sell off parts of itself or generate a profit sufficient to buy back stock to benefit from its undervalued stock then I conclude that the stock is not in fact undervalued. Wherein am I wrong? I understand that it is illegal for good reasons; but the negative effect on the market would seem necessarily limited to cases where the company's value was subjective rather than objective - "this is a good idea that will in the end create profits" rather than "this is a company that right now is generating profits equal to its potential". And then you are back to the job of everyone trying to pitch an idea; others will want to shoot down your ideas for their fun and profit. And in a competitive world people play rough whether it is Gates giving contributions so he can get away will illegal abuse of monopoly or some
Hollywood writer letting the air out of the tires of a rival so they miss an important meeting with a producer. I'm just not seeing a reason for thinking this is as big a deal as I've been led to believe that you do. Yes its bad and illegal, but a big deal? Not that I can see.

of catchy. Since you do seem sincerely interested, I'll answer your first question with an example. Force
Protection makes MRAPs for soliders and Marines in Iraq. $ 200 million in revenue, $ 18 million GAAP net income. They could not keep up with orders, and announced a secondary to raise capital to expand their factory to build more MRAPs. Immediately they went on the Reg SHO list as they were naked shorted from $ 25 to $ 5. They cancelled their offering, so they did not raise capital, so they did not expand their factory, so they cannot produce as many vehicles, so some soldiers will die in Iraq this month. Now one can say, "At this price, couldn't they buy back stock," etc. etc. Similarly, couldn't one say of a woman who crossed Central Park and encountered a rapist, "Well maybe she can subdue him and take his gun and sell it in a pawn shop and come out ahead for the experience," but it kind of misses the point. Rape is bad. Taking money in return for nonexistent stock is bad, too. -

their position beyond that. As far as, "a big deal? Not that I can see." Great. Then settle the trades. Just settle the trades. Oops, says the SEC: after downplaying this issue for several years, they officially (on the SEC website) switched their position to say that trying to force the trades to settle would create "excessive volatily from the large pre-existing open positions." That is, the system would crack. So in short, "It's not a problem, it has not been going on, don't worry about it ....Oh wait, it's gone on so much that trying to stop it now will make the system crack." And more recently, of course, the SEC has come out and said this is a very big deal and of grave concern to the commission in its job of overseeing the capital market. So in sum, you are asking me to defend why I am opposed to something that you admit is bad and illegal, and which the SEC has disclosed is of grave concern to the capital market. Did I miss anything? -

are many proposals put forward every month on ways to improve; some even directly opposite each other (delete more articles, delete less articles, ...). We need more transparency but oversighted edits, private mail lists, private evidence, pseudonymous administrators and editors, undisclosed COI, sockpuppets, and meat-puppets all work together to ensure too little transparency. None the less I have never seen a more open project, so I have hope that wikipedia will continue to get more useful every year. Thanks for your help in adding transparency; the community is in better shape now that "shoot on sight" is no longer the law around here.
1355:"short selling" debate by the business press. This is the same press that is willing to explain in layman's terms what "short selling" is, every time it uses the term, but largely failed to mention the "naked" in front of "short selling" that makes all the difference here. This has had the convenient effect (for an NSSer) of killing the "media moment" that your cause needed: after all, how much of the "investment community" (the broad one) knows that the practice exists, and is in a gray area legally, except that the government is now saying you definitely can't do it with

Even then I can't promise that I'll help anymore than others, but in terms of return for time spent, I suppose it's about the best I've come up with. Regards,

honest--don't let them conflate SS and NSS. If you're the same person I saw on
Canadian business TV the other day, the interview ended with that 'stock question' that boils down to: "Well, if you're running your company well, what are you worried about short selling?" Again, issues conflated, probably leaving many viewers with the impression that there's no fundamentally different issue at hand, just another guy who doesn't like short selling. (Case in point: I remember this much better than the rest of the interview. :-) Regards,

I think I'm sympathetic to your cause, at least insofar as I favour the banning of Mantanmoreland, but I think it would be best if all editors with high profile real life involvement in naked short selling laid off that article. Moreover, I'm sure it's not news to you that there are editors here who are pretty mistrustful of you; it would probably help your case if you built up a body of edits on subjects less controversial and less related to your professional life.
