The reporter could have explained how this is done during a squeeze.<gg> How did IOM and KTEL limit their shares? <s>

In a short squeeze, a company deliberately limits the supply of its stock, driving up the price and forcing all investors with short positions to cover their borrowings at highly inflated prices.

Secondly, squeezes do not force all investors to cover at a higher cost. It does force the margin requirements. Those with sufficient capital ride it out, knowing once the squeeze is over, the overinflated stock price collapses. (see IOM and KTEL for examples)
All, is very inaccurate and misleading. I wonder who told the reporter learned this?
