Very very doubtful that a CUSIP change is going to force a squeeze if there's anything left to squeeze. It's been stated here many many times that a RS will not eliminate NSS or shorts in general. I believe Overstock.com tried that as well with no results. It should be remembered that short sellers are far more astute/sophisticated at trading than the majority of the market. Until the company sees fit to let us mushrooms know why they're doing a RS all we can do is continue in abject speculation.
