And as of last week there were reports that there a basically no shares out there to short. So, what can they do? Find more desperate stories to try and post like personal attacks on BODs, trying to goad Duma into saying IOC has been booted, digging deep to find proof that OSH won't be buying IOC, etc. Then they use intraday shorting to try and cause some panic (because there are no shares to borrow). But it's not working. The stock is in the strongest hands ever as the SD process moves ahead. I think IOC has a couple if conferences it does yet in March and April, then Elk needs to be popped, an update on SD would be appropriate. Plenty of things to keep the pump primed for the SD announcement. And the markets are flying high. Risk is on.
