I could understand the notion of shorting when the multi million share placement was being dumped into the market. Seemed that a profit could be made if one started early enough. Despicable as it was.

Today the market does not appear to offer the same obvious profit opportunity. In two days silver is up significantly and the sector is rising in resonse. The fundamentals for ECU grow stronger every day. I could envision that this stock could tripple by the end of the year.

The last few months should surely have flushed out most of the weak hands. Who is left to aid the shorts in depressing the shares below the lever at which they shorted? If this isn't naked shorting, they may have just made a big miscalculaton. It is possible that they could be a big reason for a rapid pop in this stock in the near future as they are forced to cover.

What ever motive the shorts have, I am experienceing a bit of vengful emotion and am hoping that they get burried. Still holding tight to my shares!
