There are no shorts here. No shorting a trip zero stock. That would be an insane risk and cost prohibitive. http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=98607055 Why would qasp management gag the TA? You've said this has been shorted for weeks now. If so, they would be short over a billion shares. If that were the case, qasp management would be PR'ing that "fact" from the rooftops. But again, there are no shorts.
