The Shorting of Frauds, Overhyped and Bankrupt Stocks Journal

Gun markers imploding this morning. Covered too soon but I'm glad the thesis was correct

I hate biotech but I took a small short in this stock. The insider selling is a give away. If the stock panics tomorrow as longs read the report I might just cover everything

Shorted a bit of ISRG. I bet Citron low price target will panic some hedge funds or mutual funds into selling later today and tomorrow. I will cover into the panic

 

ISRG short % of float is 7%

 

Citron report makes a lot of sense. Might add this one to garbage index, it looks like MLNX(Super high valuation stock with catalysts to compress premium)

 

Shorted some HLF. Same thesis as ISRG, follow through as money managers panic. Bit riskier though because the stock was down a lot very quickly

 

Covered half of ISRG. Might hold the rest for tomorrow panic, but might keep some for the long-run

 

I want in on this freight train. I bought some puts.

 

THQI files for BK. Stock might actually be a buy at .50
CFO has been out for a while and they had an event of default a while back, expectations were quite low already. Market cap is quite low, and bk stocks have been hot due AAMRQ. I don't do longs in bk stocks but I will watch it so I can learn

 

THQI, likely there will be some follow through first as longs liquidate at any price. But then the stock could surge
