In what sense does shorting starve a company of capital. I'm not sure how this would work.
The only way I can think of that this might happen would be if a capital raising occurred and the SP was artificially depressed due to false negative press /sentiment driven by shorters. Is this what you mean here.
PS thought your name was a reference to Astro boy until I checked out your profile and realised it's a beer.
