You are probably right, Bruce.

In my earlier days I invested in two bad small caps that crashed and burned, and then got hit with class action suits. I had bought stock during the class action period, so I should have qualified for an award. I filled out all the forms that the class action attorneys sent me. And I waited. In at least one of the two cases the company eventually settled and was supposed to pay shareholders.

But I never got so much as one red cent.

So yes, I assume that the cash will all go to the lawyers.

As a short in CYOE, I think that this settlement is largely a non-event, except that the warrants are good news for shorts.

The warrants will probably serve the role of helping to keep a lid on the stock price. If the stock goes well above 9, and I had one of those warrants, I would exercise it and flip the stock. This sort of warrant-related selling is a good friend for shortsellers.
