I see the usual arguments are flying—no surprise there.
Let me clarify one thing for those genuinely curious (not necessarily for the benefit of those who’ve already made up their minds):
I’m here because DBMM escaped revocation, and that alone changes the game. Short positions that expected revocation (and the easy out that comes with it) are still very much alive.
Preferred share dividends—whether you like the idea or not—are a proven mechanism to expose naked short positions, as demonstrated with Overstock. Dismissing it entirely because you don’t like Patrick Byrne is missing the point.
No one’s suggesting DBMM is Apple. We all know where we are. But escaping revocation while remaining non-reporting for years and keeping the ticker alive does create a unique setup.
And yes, I believe naked short selling has plagued plenty of OTC companies—some because they deserved it, others because they became easy targets in a broken system. If you disagree, that’s fine. Time sorts these things out better than debate.
But the key is this:
I’m not here looking for a “shorty is trapped” Hail Mary. I’m here because I understand how the mechanics work when certain legal tools are used, and if DBMM management pulls the trigger on one of them, it creates a very difficult position for shorts.
Whether they do or don’t… we’ll see.
Until then, I’m good with where I stand.

No effort at all Fd and I appreciate your professional demeanor here it is refreshing.
Let me see if you can help me understand something here, I'm confused.
Your not arrogant but you've taken up Barbers position of posting the daily uptick of DBMM, wait a minute you were just passing by.
Then you say something to the sort we are all very lucky you stopped by, what???
Krombacher was nice share a bit of your back round here, nice, wow your an astute fella, but why are you here posting as the pinky expert above everyone else..........surly it's not arrogance.
I was in the same room as the Queen of England and that didn't make me a pinky expert, heck been in the same room with multiple celebrities still I'm no expert.
So, is your 15 minutes of fame passed or is arrogance blinded by your special abilities.........a little help would be appreciated.
No response necessary big fella, just an observation here from a simple man.
Thanks for any enlightenments you may have left behind me and others find need of.............

Geez, if you stop directly responding to me, I won't respond. However, what you state as factual, just is NOT.
So, to respond to a few of your points...
We’re not talking about fairy tales; we’re talking about known cases of naked short selling being exposed (Overstock, GME, AMC). These weren’t imaginary. They happened.
GME and AMC were not naked shorted. They were heavily shorted because both companies were poorly run and in debt. They both DESERVED to be shorted. The difference was that somehow Keith Gill incredibly gained a following so large that they forced a short squeeze.
Overstock settled with both Merrill and GS neither confirming nor denying, so who knows?
Therefore, yes you ARE talking fairy tales.
Shorts who bet on companies failing are often just as greedy as those hoping to catch a turnaround.
Look, I've never shorted a stock in my life, but there greed is based on shorting a stock with poor management and becoming worthless. It's not much different than playing the "don't come" on a craps table because the odds are more favorable.
Penny stock mullets are drawn into greed because they've been told by someone that they "shorty is trapped!". They aren't buying the stock because its a good company or they see growth. They've been tricked into believing a false narrative. They have been "stung".
You’ve compared DBMM to CMKX and referenced wild rumors from that saga. I agree, CMKX was a disaster, filled with fantasy
No. I've not compared the two companies. I've compared the two sets of ......."investors" (although I hate to use that term).
Two types of posters on penny stock boards.....ok, 3
The scammers
The mullets
The common sense
You cannot be 2 of these things, you can be only 1.
I've described this company as ridiculous, but whether or not they are in on the scam, well I haven't done that much research. THIS is a company worth less than 2 million dollars and with no product. If you are honest you will admit, you don't care about a product. You believe in the naked short story and that's why you are here. Am I wrong?
IF a company wants to stop being shorted, be a profitable company. Even Apple has shares shorted, but they don't worry about it.

Respect for Experience, But Let’s Stay Focused
Fung_derf, thanks for the civil tone and for sharing your perspective. You clearly have decades of experience, and that’s always valuable in any discussion—whether we agree or not. You’ve met with Presidents, Billionaires, Fed Chiefs, and I’m sure you’ve had conversations most of us will never have. I respect that.
But for the sake of everyone else reading along, I want to clarify a few things—not for you, since you’ve already said you don’t care to continue—but for the other investors here who are interested in the bigger picture and facts.
---
1. Experience Doesn’t Make the Facts Go Away
I’m not interested in “belief” systems. This isn’t about faith in management or conspiracy theories about Presidents and Popes.
This is about publicly available information: filings, revocation risks that DBMM avoided, regulatory processes, and legal mechanisms available to companies in DBMM’s position.
We’re not talking about fairy tales; we’re talking about known cases of naked short selling being exposed (Overstock, GME, AMC). These weren’t imaginary. They happened.
---
2. Greed Cuts Both Ways
You mentioned greed. Fair point. Greed motivates both sides:
Shorts who bet on companies failing are often just as greedy as those hoping to catch a turnaround.
The difference? Some longs have recognized undervaluation, regulatory windows, and legal leverage that may force shorts to cover.
It’s not about greed. It’s about game theory. If management executes certain moves (e.g., preferred share dividends), shorts will be forced to act, and there’s an opportunity there.
---
3. CMKX Was a Circus—This Isn’t CMKX
You’ve compared DBMM to CMKX and referenced wild rumors from that saga. I agree, CMKX was a disaster, filled with fantasy. But:
DBMM isn’t floating conspiracies about royal families or treasure maps.
They filed their audits, regained compliance, and remain current with OTC Markets.
That alone makes this a different scenario, not because it’s “special,” but because it’s fundamentally not revoked.
---
4. You Don’t Have to Care, But the Market Will Decide
You’ve said you’re out, and you don’t care. That’s fine. But others still do care about how this plays out.
DBMM has choices. If they take certain actions (which remain available only because they’re still trading), the outcomes will be shaped by market mechanics, not internet debates.
---
Final Thought: Respectfully Parting Ways
You’ve spent 25 years watching, lecturing, and educating. I respect that. But respectfully, you’re leaving before the discussion really starts.
For everyone else:
DBMM isn’t guaranteed success.
But they aren’t CMKX.
They escaped revocation, and they could put a preferred share dividend in place (Overstock proved it works when executed strategically).
Shorts have a window to cover before they lose control of the situation.
I appreciate your time, fung_derf. Wishing you success in your other trades.
