I'm going to allow myself the possibility of a silver lining SF, thanks in large part to your mention of the FA or another DSMB update in the not too distant.

I may be glad I added a few more thousand shares in the wake of the short attack on the PPS....only time will tell. While I still think its likely that those behind the dumping will defend their short position....it could be that they're nervous about another good safety check or a +FA.  

And on top of that, now that the short interest update is out.....While Koo's remark about retail investors not really understanding the mechanics of short selling, by and large....its a valid point.  Still, not all retail investors wallow in ignorance...some do know what a short attack is.  

I'm going to allow myself a sliver of hope that retail bulls, seeing now that the diving share price wasn't the result of investors bailing out en masse....that enough might step up and start buying.  And if the party (or parties) behind the 600K+ recently shorted...if they're anxious to cover.  I don't view it as likely, but it is at least possible imo.

I won't be around to see it if it happens tomorrow though....I'm heading out in the morning and not coming back until the evening.
