Small Fry: I am BULLISH on EGGS.If there is no shares to short like on AMZN,EBAY,YHOO etc, it appears this fact seems to start a massive up swing in those stocks.What do you think on this?

Small Fry:EGGS:Short Interest: This only covers up to 10-15-98.That figure I am quite sure has gone up since then.Although few traders can short EGGS as there is few shares available as we know.
