angelhillcorp, shorting shouldn't effectively increase the share count if they are really "borrowed" and not naked shorted. If I borrow your car for a week and you call me and tell me you sold it, I have to bring your car back or pay you what your buyer's offer was and I keep the car. Still one car, not two.
Cash is King until further notice!!!
My comments on companies are usually my opinion of long term success (years). The PPS may go up or down greatly in the meantime depending on the number of greedy suckers with money.
