I got asked this question in an interview for which I wasn't prepared. Most likely its got to do with anticipating a rise or fall in its stock price. But I want to make sure how to answer it next time I get into an interview and am asked this same question.
"How can you tell if a company is short or long?"
Please let me know.. thanks guys.

It's not an entirely uncommon question, and fortunately quite an easy one to answer. For any given company, you take the number of complete years that it has existed, and add that number to the total number of characters in its title. If the resulting number is 20+, the company is known as a 'long company', and if not, it's a 'short company'.
You really sound gay.
I'm not an encyclopedia of interview questions but I don't know if I really understand the question...
