Sorry all, I just could not help myself this afternoon. I just sold some lcos short at 92.5. Check out the chart and you will see a similar spike a few months ago. But as we can see in amzn, it could just go up and lose more money. profits just are not important. It appears to me that there is a little too much froth in the market and also noticed amzn slipping. That short at 199 would have been a large money maker for the day! Wish I had the balls to do that one.
good luck.

I've seen these words or words like them many many times before about AMZN!

How true! Amazing.com has gained 24X from low to high this year.

I remember seeing short seller's recommending the stock be sold short when the stock was even below the yearly low. No doubt that has contributed significantly to the recent performance in short funds like BEARX.
