<< Pat, it is easy for the MMs to hit on NN: only 175 Mill shares float; only the strong ( -enough to hold and buy shares ) will survive, G, >>

If the float is light, then if someone wanted to spend some $$ to depress the stock, it would not take too much.. (price elasticity). The short interest would go up, indicating that folks are selling into the market shares that they don't own. I think there is a delay in reporting short interest, so we might not know this for awhile.

Is this a correct analysis? (I'm not saying that anyone is actually doing this, but..)
