FGI - HLX: what happens if they short FGI to $9 ? Will HLX want more $ yet ? $9 gives HLX $5.13 - would they take that ??? C'Mon - I just threw out the "who's short" thing, to stir up some commentary on this... seriously; Professional traders should short FGI non-stop untill the merger closes... and I think they will; unlike anything this stock has seen yet. FGI is a short - "plum' - very, very little institutional ownership; sitting at a $10 margin point, they run $10 they trigger some "Calls" and they take out the sell stops as well imho. FGI longs had better be deciding in a hurry - what they want to do and where they make a stand... Also; if FGI can not find the buying support to fend off this short run; what makes anyone think that there will ever be they buying support to run this up to any major degree later ? At the very least, this battle will signal to the FGI longs - what kind of upside they can expect later... Lookout below imho... shorting FGI here is a Hedge Fund Gravy Train. Dig in guys.... the mortar rounds are incoming...
