I don't know that a huge short interest has always spelled doom for every stock that has ever been traded. All I know is that, in every case that I am aware of, this is an almost sure sign that a particular stock is doomed to fail eventually.

Yahoo! and AMZN were difficult to short back in May 98, three splits ago. Both had huge short positions and modest floats.
