The whole idea of a sort squeeze is a bunch of hype. If someone was short in YHOO why cover it now? If anyone covered their short position with the stock at an all time high after opening up 10 points, they need their head examined......

RE: "Sorry.. this is not a paradigm shift, it is just a common old fashioned short squeeze,..."

The "paradigm shift" was referring to Guardian's post. Not about short term plays in a particular stock.

Paradigm shift as in the "industrial revolution" was a paradigm shift. It's is a long term phenomena that is not noticed until it becomes obvious. Similar to Andy Groves "inflection point".
