<< We're just collecting the shares of a growth company; one that we believe will give a very nice return in a couple of years. >> Spoken like a true believer. My guess is that you have some pretty tight stop-sell orders and monitor the stock on an intra-day basis. "nice return in a couple of years." ha!. I am "short" in the sense of having a few put options to keep up my interest in following this stock. Obviously, the more this stock levitates the greater the attraction to short-sell. Short squeezes don't bother me since the effect is transitory and do not alter the fundamental picture. :)
