An old friend of this thread who's not been heard from in a while, suggested that MPPP be shorted today. Apparently he and his followers did a good chunk of selling, as the stock is down a few points. One thing to keep in minds when a stock is shorted heavily; it's like two gun-fighters out front of the saloon, the dust swirling at their feet, the tumbleweed tumbling. They both draw their 6-shooters. One fires...and misses. The other is left firmly in the cat-bird seat. Same with those shorters. If they've shorted heavily, and the stock goes their way, down, well they may hang on or short still more. But...if the stock starts to go against them, they're standing with an empty gun. They've gotta hang on or cover. The price of course is the key; the price is always the key. (Lee)
