Short squeeze

An acquaintance of mine shorted this stock when it was below $20. I advised her to cut her losses early, but she can't stand taking any losses and couldn't bring herself to cover her short sell.

She is facing an almost 200% decline as of today and potentially unlimited losses. Does anybody think that it is more likely that this stock will go down $10 instead of going up at least another $10? Is WIN another Bid.com or the next RIM?

Hello Jim, Just to clarify my position. You claim;

That was posted before we knew about the 2 Decmber meeting. Since then, I have re-thought the thing, and I think we have about the same take on it all.

Jim, you talked about the Dec 2 meeting in the post of record here.

I would have to agree that I have taken offence to some of your post recently and finally felt that I had to comment. You are a very well respected poster and as such much weight is given to your comments. I was simply trying to express my difference of opinion.

For the benefit of the thread, it is important to understand that each poster has a different strategy and perception which is greatly effected by that strategy. This has a great effect on the content of his/her post. Jim & I have differing strategies. To use an expression from Hatim, I offer you "a white flag of peace". :-) Cheers!!!
