no doubt..the huge valuations have attracted lots of short sellers and the small floats combined with the high short interest make for great manipulation targets.
luckily i have refrained from shorting stuff like JNPR, mainly due to these circumstances. but aside from the short covering there must be some people actually buying these stocks, and eventually they will probably find out that the swift upward moves can abruptly turn into swift downward moves. not even a reason is needed...it'll just happen one day.
