well, it was fun while it lasted

I got stopped out from my short,
so I'll be back late morning
tomorrow to try again.

Longs should not dilude themselves,
this is a short squeeze rally at
this point, nothing more.

Lot's of teens and twenties longs
stop loss sold already, but the
johnny come lately's in the 30's
and 40's have lose conviction
before the shorts can triumph.

With all due respect, this has got to be the worst stock to short.

There is almost no float and with each news item or published opinion, MCOM becomes better known.

No supply of shares and lots of demand -- well you figure it out. That's why shorts are getting screwed.
