Normally, hate to pile on, but that loser is just getting a piece of his own pie, a veritable bend over and apply the grease job. Couldn't have happened to a more pompous moe ron. Nobody is bigger than the market. BotomShorting leads to BrownFingers and just as stupid as buying at the top.

What a batteleground here. People whose judgement I trust (as experienced competent shortsellers, or good investigative journalists) seem to be divided over whether AREM is a buy or a short. Not only that, much of the whole exchange is pretty uncivil -- and this is between posters whom I thought better of. So I closed out the last half of my piddly little short now, just over $15 (at a loss, FWIW). I shorted AREM because it didn't seem to pass my smell test -- it seemed pretty typical of the various frauds or "accounting oopsies" I have either successfully shorted or watched in the past. The big difference here though is that AREM is the first such "smelly stock" I've shorted that had defenders who I consider to be above mindless herd-following. I'll now stand back and see how the AREM story unfolds... - Daniel
