The rule states that the broker who loaned the trader a stock to short can force the trader to relinquish the shares with a 24 hour notice irregardless of current price.

A Week of Superstar Bears Moving the Market

Comment on a Barron's article:
"Blind Jockey Goads Horse Off the Track" Mr. Vito fails to inform us that some of the "spectacular" earnings of the week were actually abysmal. Intel beat their results of the '08 melt down quarter. Not exactly great...in fact very poor. Goldman Sacs made money after billions of government AIG bailout were siphoned in their back door. Both Paulson and Geitner are good ol' Goldman boys. A new rule prevents disclosure of where big block trades come from (the ones that have caused the late day moves this week). Can you smell Goldman Sacs? Are we happy that the government can now directly manipulate stock prices so that today's pain is put off until tomorrow. Unemployment is over 10% in fifteen states. The author is correct. We are we dupes with wool over our eyes. We are sheep ready to be skewered for the poolside barbecue. We are lemmings jumping into toxic water.

Chips: Bullish on the Restock Rally

From another blog: "AMCC has been on a rocket climb this week as the insiders were selling shares at much lower than its current price. Who knows more about what's in store for this telecom chip company? The buyers or those that just sold over 31,000 shares? I think the buyers haven't been doing their due diligence."

The Rise of the Silver Surfer

To add to the author's thesis: The Fed wants, needs and is working very hard to increase inflation. The stock market: every ma and pa and about to retire boomer needs higher equity prices. It is inflation that will do just that. The Fed have been successful so far. Deflation and high unemployment = 1970's era stagflation. This is what the Fed wants to avoid at all costs. This paints a positive scenario for precious metals. I feel that the author calls it correctly.

45 Cheap Repurchasers of Stock

AT $8.83 Hot Topic, Inc (HOTT) looked to be a good repurchase choice. It closed 9.7 % lower at weeks end at the price $7.97. Hot Topic, Inc looks like Hot Bargin.

Short Base Rises for Hot Topic

Another way to view HOTT's recent price action: Its high was a couple of months ago at 13.87. Cut that in half= 6.94. It probably touched this number today on May 22 and closed at 6.97. Many times when a market doesn't know exactly where to go it simply retraces 50% or cuts the high by 50%.

Short Base Rises for Hot Topic

HOTT has dropped from about 10 to under 7 in a few days on high volume. The weight of the shorts that have jumped on this boat will make for a probable vault to upside. The five day moving average for this stock is about 20% above the current stock price
