The last three months of the year brought a sort of retribution and even vengeance for short-sellers on some fronts, although some popular shorts still just won't budge.

Q4 hedge fund letters, conference, scoops etc
David Einhorn-backed Firefly Value Partners was one of those to report significant gains on the short side.
