Shortersmy guess is yes sir old retard Jed ahnd Granirme (whatever the F his name is, probably another alias for Jed) have already shorted this stock and are sh#ting their pants in likely getting caught with it- remember with shorts, you dont get to choose to hold on to the stock for months on end like you do when you go long, the broker houses (or their $6.95 e-trade online account) will give them a margin call to have to buy back the stock, because they never owned the stock they shorted in the first place, they merely borrowed it from other investors.
I think that idiot on BNN who said he shorted BNK at 7.65 is looking pretty stupid as well.
good luck longs, I think 2011 will be a banner year regardless of Q4 results.
cheers,
