Hi AntiMarv, I think we are all correct when we say that the shorts are out of ammo/powder/influence.

And we all say that based on what we know is a fact, that there are almost NO more shares available to short. Out of 4 1/2 million, a couple hundred thousand is almost none.

BUT, it may even be better than that.
I keep thing about something. Right now, there SHOULD be millions of shares available. When MOST of the 4 1/2 were under $7, and we go from $5 to $8, they SHOULD HAVE covered (and unless re-shorted, should be available).

BUT THAT'S OK, WE WIN, no shares available to short = Good For Us.

I've been thinking about what Phantom said, it makes sense because it is FREE + GUARANTEED money for them, and WOULD explain why there has not been massive short covering.

I am Mr. X... OK, I buy into a stock for $10 and I am given warrants for $10.
I let the price rise to $12 and then I take my quick profits.
BUT now what do I do? ALL I can do is hope the price keeps going up so I can make even more $ on my warrants.

BUT, what if I didn't want to "HOPE"?
What if I wanted a GUANANTEED profit in the future? Even if it will be a much smaller profit, it will be guaranteed.

I short the stock at the same $12 I sold it for.
If it goes up to $20, I will make a lot on my warrants, but I will lose some of it back on my shorts.
I make $10 on my warrants, and I lose $8 on my short.
I cover my shorts with my warrants and I make $2 per share.

IF it bombs and goes down to $2?
I make $10 on my shorts and I don't exercise my warrants. I buy to cover at $2 and take my $.

AND … THAT WOULD explain, why shorts HAVE NOT COVERED.
I think?
