@Keith - Short
"
I think the reason for Spansion´s high short interest is a very consistent business underperformance relative to guidance and expectations quarter after quarter over a very long period of time. Short interest was at around 16M already in mid-2007.

I could agree with you here, the environment for memory was
and is tough. But keep the stock movement in mind, you could
short at 14,10, 8$ a while ago. Now, the stock is 2,xx. Its
a topic of chance/risk. Short this stock in the 2,xx - clear,
it could go down in the best case to 0$, but it could go up
fast to 5$ or even more. I don't think mister market is NOW
that keen to be short here, so I assume a big part of the
short-number is related to the SFUN deal. How much, I really
don't know.
