I saw you had linked my comment on SSGOF. Etrade is telling people not to worry as soon as they get certified shares the short will just go away. After 3 different conversation, finally with a supervisor from Corporate Actions they had told me that if they do not get certified within Trade+ 5 days shorting laws will go into effect cause forced buy-ins. Real shifty on etrade's part but other people on board are telling me they called and all will be fine. For their sake I hope they get certified in time, but especially with foreign issues, it could take longer.
