If I were you I would stay clear off shorting stocks like DISH, GMST and TVGIA. Unless you know _exactly_ what's going on in the Interactive TV/digital TV marketplace don't invest (or short) those stocks. JMO.

TO ALL SHORTS: As everyone here is aware OF NOW, I think this stock is BS and by defending BARRONs, I have been called names on this board. I say this now as I have covered 60% of my short position today. COVER YOUR SHORT POSITION FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. Look at today's trade's, a lot of small fish panic selling, with huge blocks being bought. 2. I have talked to very reliable traders that say there was major institutional buying including a large hedge fund. 3. Another good bounce toward 100, could trigger massive short covering. I don't like the new amount of shorts, that suddenly see religion. 4. ML, PW, and DW are pushing AMZN on their clients. WHY? 5. OPTION activity suggest a near term rally. 6. What caused the strong rally w/ good vol during the last 90 min of trading. I have been riding this %$^&& company down from 210. The party is over at this point. You will never go broke by taking profits.
