This market manipulation should not be happening in the USA. A lot of people got hurt Financially and mentally. The number one reason I don't like the Short Sellers is because they are hurting the USA economy. The shorts sellers to me personally are the biggest scammers in the history of the world. They need to pay the bill to everyone including the US economy
