Re: Goldseeks' Bob Chapman responds to a callers question about naked short selling

By Bob on 4/23/2007 8:07 AM

Goldseeks' Bob Chapman responds to a callers question about naked short selling in the equity market place. Not a big deal, but all positive comments help. If you want to cut to the chase, pull slider bar between rewind and fast forward tab. He mentions that wonderful organization DTCC as well as the Plunge Protection Team . Caller (Alex), directed question towards perceived future interview with Jim Rogers that had already taken place. Alex was off the mark as far as the Jim Rogers' Interview, but on the mark as far as naked short selling. Excellent session talking about the collapsing real estate, the New World Order, Gold and Silver (obviously) and the powers that be, Bilderberger Group.

Found this on RB

AntiSocialMedia.net
Exposing user-generated discontent.

We owe Gary Weiss an apology…
UPDATE / EDITOR’S NOTE: Floyd Schneider, while apparently admitting that he does use multiple Yahoo message board IDs simultaneously as alleged in this post, objects to our contention that he is paid for his work, as he explained to the New York Post in its recent story about antisocialmedia.net. We have extended the invitation to Mr. Schneider to tell his side of the story in this space and hope he takes the opportunity to do so.

…A very small apology, but an apology none the less.

Because Gary was found to be behind the first real example of multi-ID message board bashing to be publicly proved, and because it was apparent from writing and posting styles that one person was making a large percentage of all bashing contributions to the Yahoo boards in particular, we concluded that Gary was generally responsible for most all of it.

Well, as we’ve gone on to learn, thanks to more advanced techniques and a few golden tips, we were missing much of the full picture.

The truth is, lately Gary Weiss seems to be playing a decreasingly significant role on the various message boards where the likes of lamborghini751, cupandsaucerwithsugar, state_police_retiree, and bobobaloney once roamed.

And in many places where we long suspected Gary, we’ve instead come to discover Floyd D. Schneider, of Newton, NJ.

Gary: we’re sorry for accusing you of something you didn’t commit…as much as we suspected, anyway.

Floyd: we wish to express our deep disappointment in your decision to make a living out of lying.

Want proof?

Exploiting Yahoo’s Dissembler Sorting Algorithm bug (which we were sworn never, ever to reveal, so please stop asking) we determined that the following seven Yahoo messageboard usernames were tied to the same individual: strethoechasity, returnofstockdung, baloneymarch, zorro20934, china39846, charlesp0nzi, and floydtheoneandonly

Using Google, we found several legal filings, including this one, which make it clear that:

…“floydtheoneandonly,” “charlesp0nzi,” “thetruthseekercom,” are pseudonyms used by Floyd Schneider.”

It seems Schneider has been sued multiple times for making defamatory statements about companies in anonymous message board settings, such as Yahoo and Silicon Investor, and it’s been shown to our satisfaction that he did so for compensation and in coordination with hedge funds shorting the stock (or worse).

In other words, Floyd Schneider is the embodiment of the mythical “paid basher” you’ll find he spends an inordinate amount of time denying exists. In fact, he had been an associate of the convicted naked short seller Anthony Elgindy who, in one of the most famous posts on his siliconinvestor.com website, outted Schneider as a paid stock basher, severing their prior relationship at the same time.

Think about it…someone Elgindy (possibly reading this from his prison cell) considered excessively mercenary. Wow.

A more detailed analysis of Schneider’s posting patterns will soon follow, but here’s a quick summary of the companies he has most ferociously attacked in recent years:

Xybernaut
Matrixx Initiatives
Overstock.com
Novastar Financial
Escala Group
Cenuco
Hythiam
Lucent Technologies
iMERGENT
What do each of these companies have in common? They’re all targets of the illegal market manipulation technique known as strategic failure to deliver, as manifest by their presence on the so-called Reg SHO Securities Threshold List, indicating chronic failed trades of a company’s stock.

To better understand that issue, watch this presentation.

Check back soon for part three of our four part series on the root of the problem affecting our friend Gary Weiss

Bud...how about starting a topic on Naked Shorting and Universal Express...I am sure there a lot of intelligent folks who follow your blog that have very, very genuine, unanswered questions on this company, its CEO and their investment in USXP...such a fair and free discussion under your guiding and moderating influence would go a long way in shedding light on many of the wide-spread doubts, theories, beliefs, dogmas about naked shorting in general...

Reply: I agree such a blog would be a good idea, but I can't do it in my privileged position. Maybe someone else not so involved for such a long time can handle it.

Not sure I understand...I suppose you are saying someone else can handle it but not on this site ? If there is some way to handle it here, without your direct input (which is quite understandable), I would love to have aired here the various views on naked shorting and how complicated it is to pin everything that befalls a company that alleges to be suffering under the onslaught of this disease, especially when other equally egregious failures by such a company are brought to light in just about every instance...I agree totally that no matter how awful an emerging company's behavior in matters related to holding the trust of its shareholder base, hastening its death by relentless naked shorting is absolutely unpardonable...nevertheless, rarely is this picture complete without a full understanding of what attracts the roaches to attack a certain naked shorted company...there is at least equal blame to go around in almost every case I have been acquainted with...just my two cents...

Bud I thought you may want to see and comment on this if you have not already!!

"An event will soon occur" ????

A passing comment??? Or knowledge of a specific event?? Not associating this with CMKX, but there have been rumblings for a long time about market clean up... yes, and even outside the CMKX surroundings.

Levitt urges one fiduciary rule for all players
By Aaron Siegel
May 7, 2007

PHOENIX — The broker-dealer exemption rule has been overturned, but investors still should be cautious, warned Arthur S. Levitt Jr., former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
“While brokers will say they are under NASD oversight, they are not regulated with the consumer in mind,” he told advisers at the Investment Management Consultants Association’s Spring Development Conference here late last month. IMCA is based in Greenwood Village, Colo.

The broker-dealer rule, which exempted brokerage firms that charge asset-based fees from investment advisory regulations under specified conditions, was known informally as the Merrill Lynch rule. It was overturned in March by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

“The Merrill Lynch rule only served to confuse investors,” Mr. Levitt said.

“We need to bind brokers and advisers by similar fiduciary standards; there should be no exceptions,” he said. “Just as you put your health in a doctor’s hands, investors need to do the same with brokers and advisers.”

Mr. Levitt, who served as head of the SEC between 1993 and 2001, is a senior adviser to The Carlyle Group in Washington.

Hedge funds

In addition to his comments on adviser regulation, he predicted that the roughly $6 billion loss recorded last year by the now-defunct Amaranth Advisors LLC, a Greenwich, Conn.-based hedge fund, will be surpassed in the not-too-distant future.

“An event will soon occur to bring about a day of reckoning, and the potential political response will be swift, severe and overstated,” Mr. Levitt said.

He observed that many hedge fund advisers realize that good governance and transparency are competitive advantages, and are registering with the SEC.

“You need to seek out funds that take that commitment seriously,” Mr. Levitt said.

He also advised that their clients, who are clamoring to include hedge funds in investment allocations, do so carefully and with caution, noting that hedge fund “democratization” can translate into investors’ entering areas they don’t understand.

Commit to SOX

Addressing other aspects of regulation, Mr. Levitt said that the benefits of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 far outweigh its costs.

“If small companies cannot afford internal controls, then why should the rest of us invest in them?” he asked. “I don’t think that Western civilization will rise or fall if a listing moves from the New York Stock Exchange to Hong Kong or London.”

“Competition is great,” Mr. Levitt added. “If five companies drift from the U.S., so what?”

During the ensuing question-and-answer session, one attendee asked Mr. Levitt about his impressions of the Clinton administration, of which he was a part for eight years, and the current government.

“Bill Clinton was a great president, superb for investors and ran the most pro-investor administration,” he said. “And certainly, what has followed has not been up to the standards of those years.”

On another political note, Mr. Levitt predicted that New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg will jump into the presidential race as an independent and potentially shake up the election.

Mr. Levitt is a director of Bloomberg LP in New York, which was founded by Mr. Bloomberg in 1981.
