Yeah, it's always "the shorts" are the problem. Been hearing that here and elsewhere over and over again for over a year. Doesn't seem to matter whether the short percentage is high or low, it's always "the shorts" are the reason the stock price is too low, or the stock price is not "taking off". That tiresome argument has become a cancer that has spread across IHUB almost everywhere you look, and is continually used as an excuse for a stock price that doesn't do what longs want it to.

The "it's the evil shorts who are the problem" mantra, hammered over and over again almost daily, that becomes just a convenient deflection cliche, and eventually becomes counter productive to understanding the actual reasons behind why a company has problems with its stock price.

However, the "it's the shorts" mantra is necessary in order to dangle the other cancer that haunts stock boards, which is the almost mythical "wait for the short squeeze" mantra, something that rarely ever actually occurs, but is constantly pushed as a carrot to suck in unwitting investors with promises of great riches when "the shorts get burned" and the mythical "short squeeze" happens.
