  • Stocks with the Highest Short Interest [View article]
    Paul,

    STEC is of a particular shorting interest of mine due to the seemingly "pump-and-dump" scheme going one around it. The company's management screams "We are The Monopoly; We Own the World", while dumping their stocks. Within a month, they reduced their exposure by 20%, and the selling accelerating. There are no "buy" orders by the insiders, only "sells". P/E is at 200+ (under the assumption that they will remain a monopoly perpetually) and shorting interest is insanely high. Other players are entering the same field, and within next 3-6 months we will see some competition. Thus, I (and those 38.9% of shorts) expect it to plunge rather sooner than later.

    The list is missing (unless it is there and I didn't find it) STEC.
