Re: Pulling stocks out of street name to squeeze the shorts.

There's about 180,000,000 shares outstanding. Let's say that 1000 of us withdraw 2000 shares each. That's about 1.1% of the outstanding shares.

My reaction: Big Deal.

The larger the short interest, the more bullish it is for the stock. Those shares will be repurchased sometime. ... and hopefully at a much higher price than today.

FWIW,
Ian.
