So what is the policy for short selling right now, what if you shorted something a long time ago. and were people that had short positions and adequate borrowing grandfathered when it comes to no short list.
@9 - isn't he still short? I'm pretty sure he's making money.
@6 - if you were already short, there is no disclosure requirement unless you short more and meet the > 0.25% of the outstanding shares and I think > $1mm or something like that.
#28 Well done. Dropping a deuce at the office is difficult if not impossible for us British bankers. A proper Englishman can only use the loo at his flat to drop the kids off at the pool.

Too short. Didn't read

Einhorn is the man. Even though he lost money shorting this POS because of their ridiculous dividends he called the problems that no one else saw.

@6 - go back to sleep.

Should have a put a caption saying "Einhorwned".
I bet they filed today because they figured Einhorn wouldn't be in the office.

I bought JA Solar yesterday at the close. Chinese cleantech, woot.
It's (about) the only stock not up today...

Which other major PE shops have or are about to close shop?
Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 4:12PM
He is still short, but the amount he has had to pay out in dividends over the last 5ish years is going to keep him from making money on ALD.

I think the incredible euphoria I am feeling today has more to do with the king sized deuce I dropped rather than the market.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.
