There may very well be two types of shorts ... except I personally have never come across any of the long term patient kind. My experience is that they ride with the position as long as it goes their way and are pretty quick, or at least a whole lot quicker than most longs, to pull the trigger and close their postion when it starts to go against them.

A really stubborn long can legitimately say "OK, I am prepared to lose 100% of my investment." A really stubborn short can lose very much more than that on his original investment, depending on how stubborn he is and how many margin calls he is willing to make to prove he was right all along.

Then again, you can say there are two kinds of people interested in HEB, those who believe Asensio's reports (I don't) and those who do. I don't agree either that he has correctly described the relationship between the CFS community and HEB or how they assess the prospects of the benefits that promise to be derived from Ampligne.

I base that on my assessment of Asensio's other pronouncements about HEB, which I consider disengenous lies. Using out of date information, since corrected, is a self serving lie which puts everything else he says in extreme doubt, to me. For other judgments, I also compare his litigation history ... what he has been sued for and what happened at the trials and those of HEB... which has won each of their cases and collected damages.

Time will tell on all these trades and what may be a profitable trade at the end of one day may well be a big loss the next day or week. I, for one, think the over-all bias for HEB is to the upside.
