This is the clean version of my mandate: 18.7% of the float is short against a business growing revenue 48% at a 28% gross margin that keeps 7 cents of every revenue dollar as operating profit, earns 8% on capital, carries net debt of only 0.4 times EBITDA and has 76 months at its current burn rate — the shorts are not betting on a failing balance sheet, they are betting against a memory-price cycle, and revenue accelerated 38 points versus last quarter. The strongest fact against it is cash quality and price: operations brought in only -0.61 dollars of cash per dollar of reported profit, the stock is already up 117% over 12 months with the multiple up 47% and the froth reading is RICH at the 97th relative-strength percentile, so the squeeze fuel is partly spent. I sell if that cash conversion stays negative into the next print while gross margin keeps slipping — it is already -1.5 points year over year — or if price breaks the 51.31 invalidation, which would say the cycle call the shorts made was right.
