Hi gary,

>>>fund managers are purposely target short sellers in a effort to drive them out of the stock.by having
there brokers recall any of these stocks that have been lent to shorts.if the shorts can't find any shares
to borrow they are forced to buy shares in the open market in order to return them.which helps drive
the price up.

Is this correct? If I lend some one stock to short I am committed to this contract until the person has covered his short. On the other side, if I borrow stock to short the lender can not call off that transaction. In other words the short seller is in the drivers seat.

Joan
