No, because you are shorting it now, and if it goes to 30 and pulls back to 25, you haven't made squat overall. Especially not enough to warrant the trouble you are going thru. You guys are gambling for a 25-50% return just the same as longs would be. But you are tying up far more capital and taking a lot more risk than a long would be to play it your way. What if it doesn't pull back? Also, Ok, revenues will likely be down from the x-mas qrtr, but it isn't a "given" that the stock will pull back. Like I said, if they make their projections, the stock will be worth more. As long as they are still operating in the black in the qrtrs between holiday seasons, there is absolutely no reason for the stock to pull back other than shear manipulation, at which time, smart investors will step up. SHRP isn't experiencing "one-time" surges in revenues. The revenues have steadily increased year over year just as a strong retailer's should. Look at the year over year comparisons.
