I think that the company is a strong player and the short seller's (self interested) weak argument will blow over leading to a price recovery. A good stock is worth holding on to even when under attack. It is also a good time to build your position relatively cheaply!
Well the Motley Fool USA keep touting them as the next Amazon so that should give them some support.
Unless you take that to mean they will never declare a significant profit of course.
Scubaphil - Sorry but there really isn't any analysis or argument on the fundamentals in your post. It seems more like an argument based on market emotions. This kind of headline post just seems a waste of time to me. I..e taking up space on the discussion board. These are the kinds of headlines and articles in lower quality bulletin boards and it would be a shame if they came here too. If you don't have a clear well laid out view why start a discussion thread? Of course shorts are self-interested but so are long investors.
This is also interesting for a Hong Kong perspective on Citron Research, though an appeal is indicated:
