Thanks Mark, that does throw a bit more light on the matter.

I did read on a blog site, that if you are invested in a company crying that naked shorts are hitting their stock and that is why it is suffering - then get out fast. It is almost certain that it is an excuse by the company for other failings, such as diluting its own shares.

This would fall in with what Janice has said. It also would make your explanation Mark have substance. Naked shorters would be very careful where they practised - certainly not on companies that were sound, and could recover easily, or that were about to pay out a decent dividend - stock or cash.

Thanks again to all who responded and cleared some air.
