BooDog: The daily FINRA short numbers represent what the market makers are reporting they sold short each day. Those numbers tend to be understated according to FINRA with T trades not being included in the percentages and some trades being mismarked. (Both UBSS and Credit Suisse were fined millions of dollars for marking millions of short trades as being long) Now in addition what the MM's do is to trade good sized blocks between themselves to lower the percentages being reported. Short percentages running above 25% are indicative of those shorting being in trouble. The shorts are able to hide the short position from regulators in most instances using a variety of methods to keep securities off the bi-monthly short report. (They work together to hide the short). IMHO those short are now in worse shape than they were before the hitpiece and Rosen PR which went hand in hand. We have savvy management and a strong shareholder base that understands and appreciates the science to thank for fighting these financial terrorists. Management addressed the hit piece point by point and gave updated info on the science and long shareholders including some new investors responded by buying rather than selling which was the shorts goal.
The shorts have not covered and will not cover until forced to do so. What has happened is that the carrying costs for the shorts have risen and it is likely longs will not forget nor forgive the acts of the criminals. Go CTIX!!!
