He answers well, under 'attack'.

Just thumbing some numbers...

First day trading $18-24, 90+ Mln shrs, 2nd day $18.17-15.50 range, open/close about $18-16, 28 Mln+ shrs.

So, est. 1/2 were shorted* (say 60 Mln shrs), by introducing brokers or other, around $18-17 average, followed by the push to $6.55....net about oh, $10/shr...would be about $600 Mln profit..not bad. Never mind the shorts after the first 2 days, which would bring the net up over $1 Bln IMO.

About 50 Mln shrs have traded the last 5 trading days.

*In the interest of making an orderly market...of course.
