This is an opinion board and you are certainly entitled to yours just as I am entitled to mine. The short volume reported to FINRA at the end of the day by the market makers represents the shares they sold that day that they did not have locates for. The SEC asked FINRA to generate this information after realizing the problem of mis- marking trades was huge. Yesterday I posted a link which included a report of UBSS being fined millions of dollars for having violated Reg Sho by mis- marking millions of short trades as being long. https://www.finra.org/newsroom/2011/finra-fin...upervisory Credit Suisse and others were also charged.
It has been my position for some time that all the real shares of IPIX have been long gone and any dilution has been absorbed by longs who have followed the science and are aware of the enormous potential it has both to help folks and generate generous returns to investors. It is my contention that the daily short volume reported to FINRA is close to the total real volume for the day. The rest of the volume reported represents wash trades between market makers utilized to simulate selling, walk down the price and lower the FINRA short percentage at the end of the day. On days when there is lots of buying the percentage tends to be higher and it tends to be lower on days with little buying.
I will try one more time to explain so that everyone understands there are two kinds of shorts. The legal one which FINRA reports twice per month which is good for the stock (short is against borrowed shares)
and the naked short which
is hidden by the criminals in ex clearing and CNS and never gets reported. This explains it well for those who are having a hard time understanding the problem:

Last but not least it is important to realize that the industry that has stolen trillions from investors by committing these crimes also has hired guns working these boards trying to deflect criticism and ridicule those who
are exposing their criminal behavior.
Please find 45 minutes to watch this, your time will not be wasted.
