Its shorted like 34%...There could be a short squeeze.
It is kind of a gamble. Est is 43 cents...If they say earnings were 54 cents and guidance is like 56 for next quarter....Man ....it will gap up like 10% at least and then wont stop.
But I am afraid of the reverse. I guess time will tell. Guess reminds me ..same thing happened with GUESS (GES) ...boy oh boy. With that twist of stock split...I swear I missed that one.
This is kind of scary for "me" especially cause I was in a gambling mood friday and bought this one heavy on MARGIN. Dont ask me how much I won this stock. Just thinking ab it gives me a chest pain. Let me say a lot of my money is on this one. If things go as I expect I might make or lose 4/5 thousand dollars easy.
Wish me Luck...

May be a dumb questions, but how do you find out what percentage of the float for a ticker is shorted.? I looked at Yahoo finance... But that's stale information.

God enough with the drama. I think I am staying out of it. I called stockdoc and he says to buy it and forget it. It will go down/up but in two months he is predicting $60-$70
I dont think i will be risking my money. It is way toooo scary

LOL * sherri, i actually forgot i had some of this until it went up yesterday. Having another good day so far today. I'm still in the red on this (what a shocker!) but with summer right around the corner it should continue to rise. This stock was heavily shorted, i think we're seeing somewhat of a sqeeze. IMO, this is a good pick for the coming months. Its wayy overdue for a PR and they also report earnings in May, which should send this much higher. Could be a good time to jump in!
