I'm gonna try to short them again today.

I haven't been able to do so in a few weeks. Maybe after yesterday, some shares will be freed up.

Perhaps I'm bias, but I can fully see them splitting under $50, split adjusted $25, maybe $20.

Gil, quick lesson for me if you have the time... if there are no shares available(I have 1 full service and two online brokers all out)anywhere, This would denote that close to as much bullish as bearish sentiment?

With 7.2mm shares in the float, could pinch the shorts, unless insiders lend out their shares(can they do so?). Also noticed That Joe Rickettes and family own most of the shares.

Now double that. In the case that the stock does split at say $80, how much you bettin we see them unload some shares by summer?

All, IMO, and I'm not short or long here, but will post when/if I go short.

I can't read charts the way you do.
