personally i think they are getting deep into no man's land
now .. and honestly this is just based on what daily reg sho
showed for april .. and of course what came to pass in the
closing minutes of friday's market

and the gamble they face right now is *pressure* down
on monday so some sell is countered by folks like myself
who plan to add more ..

i originally thought <a couple of months ago> that the
catalyst would be the co. uplisting .. that would imo
absolutely force a run to cover <when this happens MC
is incidental> .. now i'm wondering if it may be a JV
<partnership> with WM or in kind

imo next week may well make the whiplash pps gyrations
we've seen the last weeks seem tame .. truly hard to say
without seeing what they show for volume and then for me
what the trades show on the tape

if friday is an indication we have one hell of a week coming up

again just my opinion .. btw monday we get the MM MONTHLY data
out of finra for the month of april .. curious to see if the
merry trio still hold the top 3 positions .. really curious
as to what ASCM & CHDN *reported* to finra

I'm no expert, but I know that nobody's pockets are infinitely deep, and that most people dislike losing money. Being short when the prices is rising and expectations are positive is a fast way to lose serious money - if the price just keeps going up your potential loss is infinite. If JBII continues to rise anyone who is short the stock will at some point (probably different for every individual) be compelled to cover.

I'm not positive of this but I assume that if shorted through a broker, the broker would have a rule that required the borrow to be covered at some percentage of loss.

you can stay short as long as your broker is happy with your margin or your exemptions as a bona fide market maker are valid for the exchange of listing.

The one thing sure to end shorting is success. No one stays short a dividend-issueing company with a reasonable price to dividends ratio :)
