Reminds me of a funny story...

The thing I dont understand is that retailers are unable to short microcaps...

A few years ago, one of the BIFS longs decided to take some profit when the stock went over $2. In her excitement, she miscalculated and sold a lot more than she owned. In a matter of hours, the stock crashed back to 75 cents.

She had the sense to cover immediately, and made out like a bandit.
