A long squeeze can happen to almost any counter... but generally more pronounced in an illiquid counter...
A liquid counter is simply liquid under 'normal' trading... Otherwise it means nothing...
Say mugabe calls kibaki & convinces him to 'nationalise' safaricom [so kibaki & clique can screw us over again (mobitelea style)]
