The purpose of the post, is to consider whether or not shorting of stocks in general might decrease at all, and specifically if shorting of CYDY, may decrease, and if so, if this will decrease right away, or merely in the near future due to regulation changes and/or due to hedge funds being convinced that street investors, have now become "enpowered" thru social media, like reddit and the sub-reddit blog, wallstreetbets????

1) Melvin Capital, STAT, Citron...are there just an endless number of hedge funds that might be shorting stocks, especially penny and OTC stocks?
2) has Adam Feuerstein of STAT been the most influential to short CYDY?
We don't see the name Adam Feuerstein of STAT, in any of the articles or discussion boards about GME on redditt nor wallstreetbets. Andrew Long of Citron seems to be the primary target and Melvin Capital Hedge Fund.

Andrew Long of Citron stated this past week, "no more research on shorting and no more articles on shorting", but he did not say no more shorting of stocks. He is constantly bashing leronlimab on Seeking Alpha.

Melvin Capital CEO said they have closed their position in GME (after loosing a couple $Billion)

Reuter's article Jan 27th:
Earlier this week prominent hedge funds Citadel and Point72 Asset Management extended a $2.75 billion financial lifeline to the fund Melvin Capital. People familiar with the fund said it lost almost 30% in the first three weeks of January.

I remember in June last year, he wrote the STAT article with lies and false allegations about Cytodyn, which along with a cadre of Tim Sykes trained stock shorter folks, caused the $10 to $4.00 drop in CYDY share price.
