A Good Technique for Trapped Shorts in $GPRO

QuicksandBearGrylls640

As a reminder, something I have been preaching in a while is that in a bull market I focus almost exclusively on liquid, non-heavly shorted, large firms unlikely to get bought out. Now, when we see a confirmed bear market that strategy changes.

However, in the case of GoPro you have the full recipe for a violent squeeze–Low float, heavily-shorted, potential buyout target, hated concept, new-IPO.

Be a sniper short in a bull market, not a sheep in the infinity.

See you after the bell for my video market recap.
