Yeah, I think it could do what VW did a few years back.

Or some can bail out now whilst they can before the 25% loss turns to 50%.

Who's going to hold and for how long whilst money is tight?

You go first

Just an information if a stock is going down and down doesn't necessarily mean that there is alot of shorts , its even doesn't indicate if there is any shorts at all , just simple S&D balance ....

Tar I was referring to the previous days trading as a stop hunt fb going from 26.8 to 29.6 for no reason at all surely a stop hunt to propel 5% up and then trade down 1% immediately after close.
