This is almost half a day's trading and we already have half a million shares traded, I expect this dude to trade over a million shares today, and it usually signifies a top or a bottom, and in this case, I believe the bottom will be made today.

Shorts will try to influence downward price pressure prior to good news being released... This causes uncertainty among the current shareholders who may sell... The selling may feed upon itself to bring the price down considerably... The shorts then cover at these lower prices and start buying... That's why you will sometimes see a stock dip prior to some expected good news, and then rebound all of a sudden... The job of the shorter is to create uncertainty... Uncertainty leads to lower prices... Jim
