I doubt they will bother covering the entire short position... this is the wild west of the investment world... if they were to cover 700 - 5 billion short shares... .50 - $2 doesn't even begin to cover it nor does $10... I doubt they will let this ticker skyrocket past $2-$10
We've seen the stories of $AM€ $GM3 BB%BY
They didn't cover squat, only some did while others are finding ways to increase liquidity to continue paying billions in interest...
