Re CALM: I also have read about it (see Marketwatch listed articles), including one guy saying it will be "the mother of all short squeezes." Certainly seems like it should -- but it's been dropping, and fast -- WHY?! Help! Need to understand. Gaucho: What is the average short price now? % short? And time to cover? Surely not still $8, and I'm afraid they will cover before it has to go it.
Disclosure: Long on CALM. Don't want to lose money on it. Am off to check on shortsqueeze.com, but first:
Trading Goddess: Nope; sorry! 1) Can't afford that for shoes. 2) Don't like them. (Why? Because I said so! So there!)
Tom (TM) -- thanks for the NYSE short list. I find it useful to see these lists, esp if something I own or want to own is on them -- helps to decide, and also to be more alert to the danger of their falling after a short squeeze. (I try to keep a note to myself of those things I have that are in a short squeeze.)
However, I think that Howard's question points to far more useful information -- how long it would take to cover the squeeze. This is something that Altucher et al. include in their short squeeze lists, so there must be some way to find it out w/o too much trouble.
Can anyone tell me how? I can really use such info.
