RE: outstanding ShortsAgree with many of your comments but take a look at the TSE shorts list as it shows that prior to the 9/11 (Aug.31 short position on the TSE) BBD was short 39,481,234 shares and it was at that level through most of the summer. Indeed the short position on BBD was as high as 45 million share back in August 15th, 2000.
