Actually, I am not big on shorting and don't particularly care for it,
but there are times when its very tempting. The broken uptrend line and the subsequent failure last week make this a low risk, IMO.

As to the question of whether it is option related;
I imagine there are always option strategies being wound or unwound,
but this stock may have been artificially strong as a result of such a strategy.

One thing I did notice about TRMB a week or so ago, is that the short interest rose for several straight weeks, never a good sign.

Rubble, it's always interesting to hear another opinion on this thread, even if it is from someone who apparently has no underlying knowledge of this company or the industry and who, it is clear, has been shilling all over SI for a very dubious enterprise. But let's hope he actually takes a short position here; that would be fun for the rest of us.
