I followed the Yahoo Financial SCOX stock forum for years during the course of this case. There were many posters in that forum who shorted SCOX. Nearly all when it was $15+/share, more than a few at $22+. Most said they were not getting out any time soon. I expect more than a few just made a nice bundle.
There were that many people willing to lay off those shorts in order to keep them liquid?!?!?!
In order to short a stock, someone, somewhere, has to be willing to take the other position. What idiot was willing to do that in sufficient quantity to make the shorts viable?
Was somebody laundering money through all of this? Was Microsoft buying them? Was SCO buying them?
