Oh, THAT’s cute! You log on with a fake name and dump on Matt for opposing naked short selling, plus you call Matt’s video a ‘hoax’.

It’s bad enough you’re proven wrong about that ‘hoax’ accusation – but it gets worse when Matt exposes who you really are. Yep, ‘the stalwart’ is actually Joe Wiesenthal, Editor of Clusterstock (duhh! the very same Clusterstock who’s erroneously called Matt’s video a ‘hoax’). And what’s your defense? It’s OUR fault for not realizing who you really are because (wink! wink!) you’ve been using that fake name ‘for several years’.

Look, if you want to oppose Matt, please do it out in the open like he does. Otherwise, if you use a fake name, I can only conclude that your ‘facts’ are the same.

Per an email exchange I had with Matt.

I should clearify that those above comments from “Joe” are me Joe Weisenthal from BusinessInsider. Hope that clears that up.

I forget not everyone realizes that TheStalwart is me — that’s my Twitter handle and blogname for several years.

Cheers.

Just curious. So this is a ‘noob’ Q!. So if the trading company accepted that they did ‘locate’ the said # of shares. Aren’t they obliged to hand over the shares to whosoever that buys them from this shady day-trader!?

Actually, the system worked well. It turns out at the :27 second mark, there’s an alert that says the trade didn’t go through.
