Well the market definitely helped today. But MANU had unexpected revenue shortfall last qtr, followed by a slew of investor class action suits. They issue a statement that they believe they corrected the shortfall problem days later(yeah right). Then in between the investor lawsuit press releases a bunch of upgrades, which tells me some large MM want to get out and also the press department is working overtime announcing new contracts. Hey I can understand propping up your stock price with press releases, but until they can show me the money, I don't think the bad news is over. That all being said I probably will take half the short off the table today, looking to reshort the same amount if they recover 2 points.
Just plain lucky today
