Please break it down for me. What happens with 180 million short interest?

If you're CONFIDENT BlackBerry is going to kill it in the coming years, a higher short interest is a good thing...because the potential for a short squeeze or even a slow run up is a lot more likely.

Basically a much higher return on your investment.

I personally deal with RIM and BlackBerry on a daily basis and I see everything they're doing behind doors and I am extremely confident. I don't day trade, I invest, and I feel RIM is a great investment over the next few years. They're innovating in a way right now I feel most other companies are not, including Apple.

If the short interest went up, I'm more than happy with the SP being above $15/share with even more shorts.

Bring it shorts!

Just wondering what a Short squeeze might look like with BB, a slow but steady burn up, or spontaneous combustion over several days.
And what kind of magnitude (Netflixish)...or even greater hmmmm

That's nuts. And if you take into acount that about 60% of the stock is institutionaly owned, that leaves only about 6% left for them to **** with..... assuming that the institutional portion is held and can't be loaned out.

Either way would be ok with me as long as it holds long enough to take advantage of it or at least contemplate it. Not like the $17.90 spike we had 22 January.

I haven't got a clue lol. I know from reading about Icohns exploits that it's generally a slow painful death for whomever he targets but that was primarily back in the junk bond days. I would think slow...over several or even many many months.

I know if it hit 40 I won't sell, then likely not at 50...much rather lose 5 or 8 bucks than not wait for the top.

Don't worry. With short numbers like that, $17.90 would be off in the distance of the rear view mirror should a short squeeze happen.
