<<The short sellers can always attack the fundamentals of the poor little Cymi even if they ran out of food (shares to be borrowed)>> Those who chased this stock from 90 to 98 pre-split did so because it seemed like it would never look back. They got hurt. Those who are shorting at 19 post-split are doing so because it looks like it will never recover. They will get hurt. I know several short sellers in this issue, each of whom is very, very good at that line of work, and they're long gone. Positions closed, profits (substantial I might add) booked. Anyone shorting this company now would have to be brain-dead. Regards, John
