They may try...but my guess is by the time the 10K comes out, the key players will be moving out of this stock and on to another. Shorts are looking for maximum impact in the shortest amount of time. Just like with UTA, TSTC, CHBT, etc, they don't continue to harp and harp.. That's not to say they won't come out with something here and there, but the barrage of attacks that we've experienced lately will likely go away...leaving room for an occasional short piece here and there by Johnny Short Lately.. It should be beyond debate when Deloitte comes in and signs on the 10K, especially after all the allegations of late. Deloitte isn't going to sign off lightly, IMO. When the dividend is announced and distributed (despite being seen by many as "paltry"), that will go a long ways to changing public and investor perception.. I'm actually with Rato on the size of the dividend needing to be increased, at least temporarily, to put matters to rest...but I wouldn't set any precedent of 100% net income as a dividend. If they did 20%, that would be significant enough to prove the company legit, IMO, and that alone would keep the share price at this level or higher based purely on the dividend yield. Considering growth on top of that would increase the yield over time, you'd have yourself a nice cash.
