Hi, closerlook, my view on shorts is very different than yours. My view is that they are far cooler and less emotional than longs. And there's no way, IMO, that shorts are more nervous than longs in this stock (or most stocks). Any big risk/reward play, such as POET, is less than a 50/50 proposition. I like the risk/reward very much, so I remain long, but really do not like the way the stock has been trading over the last several months. If we have a 25% chance to be successful, and if success means a $15 share price (not the ultimate success we are all hoping for, but meaningful success), then this is a very good play.
