"So you'd have one of two options, to either forget about owning the stock or else keep raising your offer until someone with shares decided to sell. You'd have the wildest swings in stock prices imaginable! The shorters assume risk and that's what they are expected to do. "
Supply and demand ever heard of it? That's a true legit market. The shorters don't take any risk in my opinion. The sell a share the never paid for to begin with and refuse to buy it back unless the can do so at a profit. Not much risk in that. How long have certain companies been on the REG SHO list? They stay on there for months because the MM's refuse to cover at a loss.
