Well don’t get my words twisted. The point of the argument is that shorting has happened, no denying, and can be detrimental to share price as shorters will do all in their power to cover. If there are individuals risky enough and willing to short pennies I am sure there are those who naked short them as well.
It’s risky to naked short, but also risky to short in general and that hasn’t stopped people from doing it. Greed knows no bounds.
