RE:RE:RE:ATD Short PositionsIIROC Short Sale Trading Statistics Summary Report (SSTSSR) released for 2nd half of January 2021.
Shows that the shorts are still very active with ATD. The value of short positions increased during the period as follows:
1st half of January: Value of short trades = $719.7M (15.2% of total trade value)
2nd half of January: Value of short trades = $735.0M (20.6% of total trade value)
A 2.1% increase in the second half of the month. Nothing compared to the jump from December to January but interesting that the short position continued to increase.
Barring a "big squeeze", it will certainly be a slow grind forward for ATD as these positions are unwound to get back to a more "normal" level of short interest.
Interested in any other thoughts on this issue.
