Shorts are generally move agressive and have a very short perspective on a trade. They are on Margin and their risk is UNLIMITED.

I would say since the IPO of Rambus shorts have been the real winners. That is one of the reasons the numbers are so high. This stock has so much hype and so many doubts it makes for a perfect stock to short and to trade. But the risk can be huge on both sides. I personally think that many of the shorts have a lot of profit on the table as a cushion that prevents them from rushing for the door on any bounce, also since any real profits are still far out and some doubt that they will ever arrive. Also the prospects by many that the market could weaken going into Y2K timeframe, really gives them a lot of time hold their postion.

Time is on their side right now.

Don
