I suspect you will look back on your decision and wish that you only had to stomach 50%. Buying INPR at 10 was very risky. Whatever prompted such a move? Did you not even consider a stop-loss? Your first decision to buy INPR was obviously based on little research, and even less preparation for decline. Hence, it is likely that your decision to short INRP is based more on your anger at losing money that on any well researched investment stategy. Short selling at 5 is pure stupidity. The smart shorts rode this one all the way down, but are certainly looking for a bottom in which to cover. The rest of the herd will get slaughtered as they always do.
