re: hedge funds, I agree with SJS. Generally speaking, funds that are short T-bonds for any reason would not usually be shorting high PE stocks. The most common bond & equity funds are convertible arb funds, where someone will be long a convertible bond and short the underlying stock.

The guys likely shorting JDSU-type stocks are those running short-biased hedge funds and pure mo-mo gamblers who are short for small periods of time.
