Hi Jason, Whoever did the financing for FST is probably the house that's doing the shorting. (With a ton of in the money warrants out, it makes it tough to be long FST now.) Later grayhairs

When would they have been shorting? I show both houses as net buyers the last couple of days.

We can only guess at the who and the size of the position as we all know. If there is a nice sized short position then that perpetuates the upward momentum as the buyers want the staock and at the same time the shorters are buying to cover. I turly love it when they have to cover. I do not like it when they are creating teh position It is highly unregulated and IMO should be completly outlawed - another debate for another time. ( not to say I would not do it - I just do not agree with it)
