Uncle, for the first time I disagree with you. Americans are the most optimistic people in the world and will not stand for being second best. That's why we're number one and moving higher. So you either get on the American corporate train or risk being left behind. Just like the DOW 10,000. Sooner or later we'll be higher. P.S. Bears are good for us. They make us all smarter, quicker, and think long and hard about our commitments. So don't kill them all Uncle. Besides they almost always self-destruct. I have this feeling that the shorts are most likely Hedge Funds. They are the ones with the loose cannons running them. Who else who short a stock this thin? These guys have the ability to not only cover their short position but reverse it. So if a fund has 100,000 shares short they may even purchase 200,000, 100,000 to cover and a 100,000 to go long. They know what a short position this size in a stock this thin means. These guys will squeeze their own brothers for a quick buck. Just breaks my heart.
