It's not just Schwab, there aren't any options traded on BIRD. And shorting is not a guarantee. First you have to find a borrow, which if it's available probably costs >1000% annualized today. Then you have to be able to maintain that borrow, even if BIRD doubles from here.

Based on the price action today, this seems like a short squeeze.

Yes, I understand the basics of shorts.
Sure didn't seem like it.
I would have closed already and made huge profits, so I guess I was right. Weird series of replies here.
