LOL, whatever. Either you or he is confused. I was just explaining it to you. If you want to believe that his short position is special for the first short position in the history of the shorting game, be my guess, but I've seen dozens of newbies on message boards make the exact same claim before due to lack of understanding how it works.

Tell your friend to look at his account. If he shorted at say $22 he has $11,000 more cash in his account right now then he did just before he shorted. I'd give you 100 to 1 odds in a bet.
