The [shorts] reek of desperation.
Anyone who believes there is an army of traders short RMHB doesn't understand what's actually involved in shorting penny stocks. I know it's a favorite conspiracy theory of penny stock CEOs looking to blame SOMEONE for their failures but.. it really doesn't happen much.
Next time someone blames "the shorts" I suggest you ask them to explain the $5 rule. If they can't.. you can safely ignore them
For short positions in stock where the last sale price/share is less than $5, then the maintenance margin requirement is $2.50 per share or 100% of the stock value, whichever is greater.
If you want to short 1,000,000 shares of RMHB, you have to put up $2,500,000
Your maximum profit will be $22,000. That's LESS than a 1% return.
Now you know why tales of "shorts" ganging up on poor little companies (like RMHB) are complete BS, and why anyone blaming "shorts" for a stock's decline is either ignorant or a liar.
