Doc - bingo, this seems to me also the most logical scenario. At a certain moment (when they see more gains in being long rather than short; don't think we are there yet) these hedge funds will turn 180 degrees. They of course don't care about the company or who is right or who is wrong. They just want to maximize short term profits. Based on

1. they know that multiple hit pieces have a disproportionate effect on the pps
2. the attacks are well coordinated
3. they know the timing of the hit pieces

these hedge funds would be foolish not to play the market both ways. No doubt about this. Therefore I think this particular campaign is huge; shorts have made 100's million $ these last two weeks; some ended up in the pockets of late followers, but most with these hedge funds. Including option trading, I assume after last Friday we have well past 500M$, possibly close to 1B$ now.

Then we also have to add the effect this has had and still has on the whole CGS sector.

Imo there is no reason, when the moment is there, why these hedge funds would not turn around. Huge profits to be made, if you know the timing....Lower short interest and particularly option trading could be significant indicators. I would not even exclude a sudden series of positive articles on SA...
