true.. but it isn't the short sellers that push the price down, it is the lack of buying that pushed drmd and many stocks down, short selling puts a sort of temporary cap on how high the price will go short term.. the short selling, if they are premature, precipitate a squeeze and then a surge in price unwarranted by ta or fa, which is why short interest is perceived as bullish by many people.This also causes a whipsaw price that can fool a lot of people. see ddim/zitl charts for the mid spring..

Judith: I am sorry. Anyway... What I was saying about Daytraders Shorting DRMD is just that. Daytraders. Today and Friday, maybe even monday depending on todays and Fridays action.
I would not see DRMD as a long term Short by any means!!!!
Short term, there is a strong potiential for a profit taking Short selling Combo.

Have a good new year!
