Re: "I agree with all except your first point. Did the PR stop to allow Even to bash, OR did Telatinos switch off the PR because shorts NEED PR to short? That's how they make their money."
Yes they need buying interest to sell short in the first place, say something like, "85 million revenue this year!!! yay!!"
BUT, this company is supposedly combating a PRE-EXISTING short position that was searching for cover. In that scenario, buying pressure only scares and screws the hell out of them, whereas, to cut off communication with shareholders to the extent that Tela did would have been a gift from heaven...
unless of course you're buying as they short or perhaps planning an acquisition....but Taylor's behavior of late, makes me feel like he's sold out and moved on to the next "project"
...VPBH/POPC...and I'm not sure Tela's involved...
