If people don't try and counteract the short interest groups they will crush every OTC stock. Like I said its a game and in their favor. Why do you think groups like Pennystock Whispers, Money Runners, Clay Trader etc...are so popular? Their groups have the fire power to crush short interest, "being only short term" and sometimes for huge gains. Have you every noticed that when a stock rises significantly the negativity always stops and these short interest posters disappear. It's only when it becomes overbought they return with a vengeance. Look at the Chart for MRIB you can see a steady decline in PPS since the last large runup in March, have we had some dilution? yep? We have also purchased 1383 cased of Vodka to Supply California stores "all 100% paid for" etc... These short traders are playing on the short term gain emotion. Since things are taking longer than expected, they know OTC traders dont hold more than a few weeks to a few months "many people have been burned before". People actually expected Marani to have full US distribution by now and that's laughable. People don't understand what a huge undertaking that would be and what kind of resources they would need to do it. Short interest groups know this and their playing the dilution card to its full extent and since national distribution didn't happen over night its now a scam. lol
