I've placed some thought as to why there's so much negativity on IHub with regards to TALK.

Based on the share count in 2015 Marker Makers and/or hedge funds were naked shorting TALK and did not see the merger coming or note conversion to clean up debt in March, April and May.

If its naked shorting TALK PPS should increase dramatically if UMS request a new cupid # and certificates. FINRA will have no choice and request all shares shorted to be bought back to ensure UMS takeover of TALK starts with a clean slate.

This means as longs they will have to buy back our shares at prices higher they don't want, but oh well they would have no choice.

Can anyone help me determine if its naked shorting or note conversion.
