OK, I realize most of you probably think I'm crazy, the way I keep harping on about the shorts, but in a thinly traded stock that has a conspicuously down history the shorts usually call the shots. The shorts still have a large position in SPSN and aren't likely to give up on what has been, for them, extremely easy money.

However, I sense that the really rabid shorts have moved on and the ones that remain are a lot less willing to throw money at the stock in the range it's currently trading in. That doesn't mean that they wont defend their positions should SPSN start a meaningful move to the upside, but in the current $3.00 to $3.50 range there's not much desire to defend the stock price. They tried to do so the other day and it cost them some money as SPSN shares seem harder and harder to come by.

It will probably take a few more brokerages changing their opinions about SPSN before a real break out occurs. Or, God forbid, SPSN might actually say something that would move the stock price.
