Many people think that there are an order of magnitude more people reading these posts than posting. And there are probably yet an order of magnitude more people watching or posting on yahoo. So... it is possible there are hundreds people reading these posts as well as the 5 on IV.
In other words, you are once again terribly inaccurate, and once again it is inaccurate in the direction of interfering with actions against the people shorting this stock. Why would you risk that? For what gain?
There are currently only 50K shares available to short according to multiple posts on Friday. There are about 6 Million shares shorted. Maybe more, but that was at last report.
If only 300 longs managed to remove 5K shares each from the shorting pool, that would be 1.45M short shares forced to cover within 3 days.
If there is a PR of significance on Tuesday AM, and the stock pops to $10/share, and then these longs move to force the short covering, then the shorts would have until Friday to close their positions. If there is a string of fantastic PR's this week about Direct, the price could have ballooned to $50/share by then. Some, such as Sentiment, think it could go to well over $80/sh. So we could trap those shorts in to having to buy/cover at $50+/share, losing $40++/share. That would be a $60M++ loss. That would sting.
And the above numbers are without the short squeeze. Without these efforts the shorts would hang on, gambling that disappointment about the L trial down the road would outweigh the Direct data PR's and the price would plummet. If they made that gamble and lost, then great. But there might be a delay in news on the L trial till the end of June based on latest speculation. And if that happened, there might be time, with enough dishonest bashing, to drop the stock price down to whatever their goals are... something well below their earlier sell price. Even with fantastic news on L at the end of June, that could clearly happen in the interim. And they are counting on it for their gains, or, at a minimum, for their escape.
But if we force them to buy at the peak of next week, it doesn't matter if there is a dip where they could escape in the following weeks. Those we trapped would be toast. The above numbers of $10 and $50 are without the squeeze. Where would it go to with the squeeze?
The above numbers might be overblown, but even a third of that would be a nice sting.
And to be honest, I think all of the above is transparent to a lot of people here. Not that it is certainly true, but that it might be true within the limits of what we know. And what you know. And therefore it is worth a try.
So you can LOL you want, but be assured that there is some audience LOLing at you, almost every time you LOL.
Wait for it....
