But don’t you go thinkin’ this is all sunshine and roses. Some folks, the ones what bet against the thing (short traders, they’re called), might find themselves in a heap of trouble if they ain’t nimble enough to adjust their positions. Seems a fella could lose his shirt…or at least a sizable portion of it.
