Jack: Those short will not cover until forced. By the time they are forced they will have lost millions and the longs will have reaped a long awaited harvest at their expense. The shorts are not the sharpest knives in the drawer they operate like a casino and play the odds. Most of the time the casino wins but every once in a while they have huge losses. TEVE is going to provide one of those huge loss occurences for the shorts. Go TEVE!!! Hold what you have and buy what you can!
