Susan... they don't care about the little guy. It's nothing more than a power struggle between those with the greater guns. But shorting a company with $9/share in cash, which is profitable to boot, is nothing more than an invitation to be squeezed very hard. Some folks like to live on the wild side. Short-sellers are no different than speculators. They prey on ignorance and fear, and merely open the doors for the institutions to collect the small investor's shares at a cheaper price. No bones about it... the stock market is a war of attrition where the ammunition is the US dollar and informatio/disinformation. Those with more ammo or better propaganda win. Regards, Ron
