Hi,
I have read on the curriculum that when a stock is a popular short and few shares are available to borrow, the short seller may have to cover the loan by buying back the stock at an inopportune time.
The more popular a short strategy on a stock the better for the short seller because the down pressure on the sotck’s price…
Dont get the idea of “may have to cover the loan by buying back the stock at an inopportune time.”
