I haven't seen 70% numbers on other companies -- but we'd have to look at stock price etc. for those other companies to see if it's correlated to the FINRA number for them, to make a real comparison. If we compare CTIX to other manipulated, shorted companies, we're going to see the same kinds of numbers.
And if we compare it to big, heavily traded stocks like AAPL or AMZN, then that number will be meaningless because the market makers genuinely DO temporarily short stocks there to make a market. I just have a problem with saying that all the short interest is market makers doing their thing, when I have sat there for several minutes with a CTIX order not being filled, even though I went in at the offer.
