Gopher,

re: Short interest

Yup, it may lead to volatility.

But if shorts didn't cover prior to earnings and stock at $92 i can't see them covering at sub 90 and just options expiry.

The shorts will likely killed on a seminal event such as a Dell design win.

In fact short positions may be increasing.

regards,

Kash

Re: "What about the 12 million plus short interest? That is a pretty destabilizing force. If they all think that AMD has bottomed and that it is likely to move up after Friday then tomorrow could be pretty explosive."

Comment: At $85-1/2 I caouldn't resist those July 90's at 3/8's so picked up 200... Hope the explosion occurs before Friday's close!!!
