Hi Misiu,
Knowing what Dr Arman knows about potential partnerships/buyouts, I don't think he needs to set a trap because the shorts are already standing in it. He just needs to close the deal and announce it on a Friday evening after the close. Why Friday evening and not Monday morning? Well because EVERYONE will know about the partnership/buyout come Monday morning, and it could create a short squeeze unlike anything we've ever seen before. Can you imagine if the opening bid on a future Monday morning was $5-$10+ for a partnership, or $20+ for a buyout, especially if it's GSK?
