POET Technologies Inc.

ST, you wrote: "Should the "shorts" as a % of float get too high, the company can execute a reverse split which will "call in" all the shorts and "clean the stock'"

I can't follow this. If I'm short 10,000 shares of POET and the stock is at $2, and they do the reverse split, I will then be short 2,000 shares of POET, which should be trading at $10. Please explain the cleaning part, it makes no sense to me. The longs will have their 10,000 shares "called in" and they will not have 2,000 shares.

I see no difference.
