They are suppose to be the big short fund holding
around 800,000 shares short at near a $8 million loss.

They took their short position around $7 years ago when
there was different management, and few products.

If this is true, Fierro has lost a lot of money. $8 million is a lot of money. They are going to lose a lot more. They are shoping for blocks, but no one wants to sell to them.

Also heard firms are telling Fierro to go to the open market to cover.

Eddy,

Thanks very much for your offer. I'm fairly certain that Fiero Bros (FSCO) on Level II has been shorting GUMM this week. The volume exceeded 1 million shares yesterday and the day before, so his volume is a very percentage of the total volume. Other people might have been shorting the stock even though it's hard to borrow and I think it would be very interesting to see the short data from your BS detector if don't mind collecting it. There has been quite a bit of BS from short sellers here lately, and if that was the input to your detector, it would probably be off the upper end of the scale lol.

Take care,

Dan
