"How to Handle a Short Attack on a Stock You Own
...
An anonymous individual writing under the name “The Pump Stopper” launched a vicious attack on Ekso Bionics Holdings Inc."

Excellent advice from that article which advises to keep perspective. That goes for both alleged pump and dumps and alleged short and distorts.

Although in that case, Ekso is down 85% from the time of Pump Stopper's article. It's unlikely that a single article could have such a lasting effect so keep perspective there too. Likewise, PTOI is down 99.5% from its high--after almost a decade nobody can credibly blame anyone other than the company itself for it's abysmal stock performance. PTOI has achieved zero results during that time--is it really still a mystery as to why the stock was punished??

Pump Stopper also wrote an article about pyrolysis scam Magnegas as well about two years ago. His article was spot on with references. After reading it, I went to Magnegas' headquarters to check it out myself. The CEO was there smoking cigars at a picnic table with other employees. The CEO offered to show me around if I signed an NDA--which is certainly odd because if anyone off the street is offered access, who is he excluding?? I declined.

I wrote my own article about the experience. Somehow, Magnegas was able to get both Pump Stopper's and my article deleted. Shareholders who were deprived of Pump Stopper's article have suffered a 97% decline by holding. With PTOI, be thankful that you have access to a variety of opinions--not every investor gets warnings about bad companies.

Yes, I understand your penny stock also is the real deal, created with the inventiveness of Edison and destined to be the next Microsoft. Yes, I understand that the delays are also only because your company is making their product and/or technology even more revolutionary.
