I keep an eye on the bi-monthly short numbers and check iborrowdesk periodically too. Simply based on the share price increase since mid-December and the limited shares available to short from iborrowdesk over this same period, I think the short interest will increase again when the 12/31 numbers come out. I’m sure some covered and have done decent on some short day/week trades, but like you mentioned overall many are losing and desperate. These statements only account for the legal shorts that we have a little visibility on, but some shorts may also be in cahoots with MM or illegal naked short activity to try and pull off another 6/30 style attack? Either way, if we hit CD12 PE they are all going to be in a much worse position.
