They will have to cover at some point...

Can anyone hypothesize the short's strategy for someone that hasn't been in the market long? We've been seeing these numbers increase all year despite all the positive news; you'd think those shorting were crazy but they seem to have played this pretty well. Still waiting for the mythical short squeeze many keep mentioning.

For one, at this point, shorts are sitting waiting for the next bear raid. I think there was significant covering late today. They will likely short more if the price rises for what they deem to be no good, or insufficient, reason, and they will cover, when the vice versa thing happens.

How are they ever going to cover? At some point they have to cover.

I tend to think we are seeing the bear raid this morning - who are the idiots selling now?
