Simply buying new, dilutive shares "covers" them.
It's how the pink market works.
Especially when a TA is gagged like QASP's.
Dilution abounds amid the cries of "Short Squeeze" and "Get Shorty".
Soon, if the pinkCo eventually files reports, you see the O/S has magically increased and there has never been a squeeze.
Look at the half a billion increase to the OS from Sept 31 '13 to Dec 31 '13.
Known numbers, as of 1/1/14, are 850Mish.
We won't get the known numbers for March 31 '14 until at least mid-June.
No shorts in qasp.
