Don't know that I am right, but that is how I am viewing it.  I spoke to Joe Diaz when it last took the significant drop and we discussed several things.  I said to him that I felt that the fundamentals of the company were solid but that the stock has been manipulated from the word go. First probably by Hudson Bay, them still or someone else now do not know, and his response was I cannot disagree with anything that you have said. It sure seems interesting that the shorts increase and then shortly thereafter the stock goes down.  I am hoping that this is the last gasp of the manipulators trying to grab some cheap shares because if the company can announce the completion of the deal with GIS and anything else really positive at the upcoming stockholders meeting or before then their job keeping the price down becomes much more difficult--IMHO of course.
