Hey, back in the double digits! (what's a little . among friends?) Takes a little intestinal fortitude in here, but, hey, it's priced like a cheap call option with a zero strike price and no expiration...! Some people end up owning the big houses on the beach this way! Can you imagine being short here? Now THAT would take guts.

Shorts could lose 100%...200%...300.%...1000%...5000%.... or MORE --(infinite, actually) -- versus a maximum upside of only 100% (less taxes) -- the exact reverse of the longs' risk/reward. Place your bets.
