Anyone selling shares will be allowing some of the shorts to leave. You should be buying MNKD shares if you don't have enough to buy part of an island. Ha!! Sorry, I made myself laugh.

So you're buying today? I was buying back when in low $3's... and selling some now. Maybe you bought my shares today instead of shorts  Buying at $3.30 and selling a month later at $5 is pretty amazing annualized return. Would seem a bit greedy to not ring the bell on some of that profit. |

My wife said that I have enough shares ... so I'm not buying anymore. And my shares will all end up in my daughter's hands ... and she'll probably buy Diamond Head. Who knows  |

Never a bad thing to take and lock in profits, well done to everyone who is doing so! I sold a few (~1% of my holdings). Same quantity I recently bought at $3.40. If MNKD retreats far enough, I'll add again and get some free shares! If it doesn't retreat. Even better!!! |

Institutions don’t want shares. They want money to cover their losses of the individuals making trades on their platform. Shorts are getting margin calls. They must buy back the shares aka provide more capital to foot the bill or deposit more money. |

We should be careful when we say "institutions" although things are definitely blurry. Institutional investors do buy shares as part of a fund which may be what jkendra was referring to. I think your point is Fidelity and other trading platform companies could be making margin calls on (most likely individual) investors who are short MNKD so that Fidelity, et al, are not left holding uncovered short positions. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)

What brokers are extending margin on MNKD stock to retail investors? I know mine is not. I would think Fidelity isn't either. |
