hes full of crap, just another monday morning quarterback. i doubt that many have the balls to short this stock. i ultimately feel that the stock is a piece of crap, but i did book a nice profit on half of my shares at 10 and change and will let the rest ride. anyone that claims that they are shorting the stock after the fact is probably full of it because it is very hard to get a good locate on stock to borrow, believe me, i know how hard it is. i would not short this stock, but most clearing agents will not lend out a stock that is as volitile as this, especially because it was so low recently which means nobody owns it on margin, so technically, there is no stock to lend out.
