93 million.
That's how many shares are short on one of my favorite investments right now.
With a total of 304 million shares outstanding, we're talking about
32% of this company's stock that has been sold short by traders who
think the share price is going lower.
The thing is, over the last couple of years, these bearish bets have
been absolutely correct, and they've generated some outstanding profits
as the stock price has dropped.
I know old habits die hard, but the time for this particular short
play is over. The stock has fallen from $40 a share in January 2012 to
around $9 today (the 52-week low is around $5). The downside profits
have been made. The odds of another sharp move lower have declined
dramatically. (more)
