Did you transact the short Linden?

Yep.

If not I would hold off until the picture becomes clearer.

The picture is quite clear to me. IMHO, there are some seriously shady financial shananigans going on here. This is a stone cold lock of a short and I'm not passing up the opportunity to add more shares.

Why wait till the stock crashes to short, when you can short now at inflated levels?

The Kaufman Bros. analyst has his firm's reputation

I distinctly remember the same arguments being put forth for CYBG and LOCK right before they tanked due to financial games.

Mutual funds are making bets with $$$ they can afford to lose.

Mutuals funds owned millions in CCSI also--enough said for that argument.

Can the little investor stomach a forth coming squeeze?

Sure. Plenty of margin for a short like ABTE. I'm may add ABTE to my core short short to 0 portfolio of ZITL, CFON and ZONA.
