Dilemma
#15

Folks,

I am not an options expert so I have a question.  Are th shorts getting hurt by a short squeeze?  My thoughts are that if the shorts are hedged in cheap out of the money calls, isn't it in the shorts best interest for the stock to go down in price or for the stock to skyrocket in price?  It seems they can make money if the stock goes down, or if the stock goes up dramatically.  It seems a stagnant stock price is the worst for the shorts.  Just my simple thoughts; I'm I wrong?

Good luck longs.
