Good point. They are freaking out because they are not going to be able to cover their shorts and/or continue building their long position at bargain basement prices.

When someone who has admitted in the past to trying to pump or dump the stock so that they can trade opposite to the suckers they convince to take the wrong position -- what does that tell you? It tells me that they are desperate to get people to sell their stock here, so that the crooks can buy it.
