Short Squeeze: Hi Vlad. Been away the last couple of weeks because working hard to make up for time off during kids' spring break. Also been working on tax returns to pay (under threat of imprisonment) for the Draft Dodger in Chief's missile attacks on commuter trains in Serbia. 20,000 of my 25,000 shares have always been in my IRA or Keogh accounts. On Monday, I directed my broker to move the 5,000 shares in my cash account to my teenaged son's custodial account, so those just became non-marginable. (The move was prompted by tax-planning, not short-squeezing.) Hope we don't see another 1/2 hour or one-day wonder tomorrow. A close above 7 will have the short hold-outs dry-heaving all weekend, fearing more news before Monday's open.
