For all: Where does the concept of "capitulation" by the shorts fit into the near future. RS&C pointed to this buying support/momentum and used the word "capitulation".

I would think that this is a very dangerous time for any hedge fund manager with a large short position, due the the large amount of positives ahead that could be released, especially European approval (that is expected in this quarter). If the upward momentum continues toward the low 60s as every day passes the European approval announcement becomes a little closer, yes very dangerous.

If Nations Sec. has a 1% position also, what is the likelihood that crossen switches back toward "buy" or "strong buy" as European approval approaches and more data is released on Viracept at hamburg...

These are the days.
