Like our runup to $100, I see the shorts just patiently let the stock run up, and then hit it hard and grind it right back.
That's the tragedy of the events Tarules lists; the battered and bruised retailers selling off too early. Sorry Jimin, but totally disagree with that..REAL TANGIBLE MONIES that they would have to PAY/cover if short is a DEAL CHANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! playing with shorted shares and often undelivered is where these guys live....They are more than happy to sell their neighbors house or have it remortgaged five times over when we have a do zippo SEC..They are well aware of a paper tiger as so often is the SEC..They're great and writing laws...Just shitty at enforcing them!
