Shorters borrow stock (not sure how), dump it on the market and when the price drops they buy back all of what they borrowed at a lower price, return the stock to the lender and pocket the difference. Not my cup of tea.....
Price will be driven down when there is a lot of shorting, i.e. dumping large quantities of stock on the market will drive the price down, playing in to the hands of the shorters.
Anyways.... im like you.
Very confident in ATC, am a big fan and supporter of the company and its plans. Worts and all.
I too am aiming for a long term hold with the hope of a possible dividend in a few years.
Good luck!
