Any advice on what direction SIEB will take this week and coming month ? With NDB's solid earnings report, we could see a possible upgrade on it which may affect all OLBs positively. And with all the biggies reporting in April, SIEB could ride the coat-tail until it reports in May. There's is also a slight chance that SIEB might also for a change report positive earnings with a pre-announcement. Hhmmm. Not sure about shorting, unless I'm also holding a larger long position. I have the long position @ 23 1/2, and I'm wondering if I should also protect myself from serious losses with a short. But then again, we could have a major short squeeze. I understand that most of the float is short. Any advice or thoughts on what's in play for SIEB this week and next month ? Twick
