....here is some sage advise from Uncle Jimmy, which has been previously discussed on this forum. You can go to Jim Sinclair's website www.jsmineset and do your own research by entering the key word "intermediaries" in the search field at the top left- hand corner of his page.
"Take delivery of your certificates for the purpose of eliminating as many financial intermediaries as possible. It is a smart move to remove as many of these financial agents as possible as the largest names in the finance industry roll badly over from the derivative meltdown. If the Jolly Green Giants falls what do you think will happen to the peanut venders also involved?"
