Not really short. The stock sold there is technically short but really it's a covered sale. It is a way for a company, it's insiders or its finance people to sell stock that is restricted. It is NEVER bought back in.

We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth... For my part, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst; and to provide for it. --Patrick Henry, Patriot and Hero of the American Revolution
