quinlash, you post non stop about shorting - but you have no clue as to how it works.
Let me help you - I'll keep it simple.
A 'shorter' borrows stocks high, let's say $10.
He sells those stocks - and pockets or invests the cash.
When the stricken drops - let's say $5 - he buys the rock and repays the original lender. The shorter makes a profit of $5 a share.
Too risky for me - but given Tilray share price has dropped to near 52 week lows - it seems that pretty much any short investor has had opportunity after opportunity to make money.
Meanwhile, a long such as yourself has had his money tied up in a dead money stock - and seen his potential losses grow.
All this while you wait for US legalization.

RE:quinlash describes Tilray
This is why I suspect many who sold short were mislead
