Yea, market makers are smart, they know better than to short COPI when now the new regulations make em take physical possession of shares now.
That's another reason the stock is going straight up... The market makers are not shorting "air shares" to force some sells, the way they drove it down this summer before the new regulations went into effect...
I hadn't even thought of this as a reason the value is coming back to COPI so fast and steady! :-)
