WHY I WOULD HATE TO BE SHORT THIS STOCK

One of these mornings we may wake up and
to the premarket news:
SRCM is being bought out for ~$48/share.

This will only reward current longs.

Shorts will be at an INSTANT loss,
not even a chance to cover lower because it
will be an instant gap in price.

On the other hand, if their is no truth
to the rumors, the stock will just begin
to drift lower - no instant loss for the longs.
The neat thing is that it is currently drifting higher!

INSTANT loss for the shorts if a buyout, INSTANT
profit for the longs. A possible drifting loss for longs if
no buyout. The shorts are taking the biggest gamble with the
longest time frame to make a possible profit.


I can feel the buyout coming. Anyone else "feel it"?
I'm left with maintaining my LONG position based on
my intuition of the present moment, rather than
the history of past months.

S.W.
