Mattie, I think you may be right about the shorts being squeezed in APOL. I was one of them. Ouch. Nonetheless, it was the IBD article that seems to have triggered the run.

The stocks you were naming are all in the Overpriced Stock Service. Was that the newsletter that was being distributed for free?

The problem with being short in a bull market is that you stand an excellent chance of being squeezed. Unless you're willing to short the the high flying large cap stocks at this juncture, I'm afraid that the chances of being squeezed in the middle and small caps is increasing as money flows out of large caps and into the smaller caps.
