RE:Shorts

Not likely to apply to the geniuses who shorted the additional 290K shares from between Aug 15 and Aug 31.

And maybe some did buy calls to hedge, but those aren't cheap right now and they're just making the outcome for their short positions worse when to option go in the money and the seller of the call has to buy the stock to cover those if they aren't already holding.

But hey! What do I know.
