Cramer on Why Netflix Stock Dropped So Far So Fast
Love him or hate him, Jim Cramer explains why Netflix stock dropped from $300 to $77 per share so quickly, Short Selling Doomed Netflix. Cramer writes that the number of shorts grew as the price of the Netflix stock rose, but the supply of stock was actually getting smaller because of the buyback program.
So, shorts kept shorting and trying to borrow stock and they couldn’t locate it.

The Justice Department is proposing new Freedom of Information Act rules allowing the government to inform the public that records do not exist even if they do.

Today Google announced its long-ignored RSS app Google Reader is getting an update.
