Shorts manipulating the stock
I am seeing 25 million shares short on shortdata.ca as of Feb 15.
I hope Kelt has a surprise Feb 25th - that's a month worth of daily trades that are offside, and holding the stock down. Silly in a bull market.
We have huge whiplash potential - when we breakout, it will be big!!!
Where will we be when Kelt isn't being held back by these goons. The only reason shorts are on this company is to manipulate the price down for cheaper purchasing, and take advantage of technical traders / last year's one-off performance. All future indicators look stellar. The shift will come when Kelt starts trading for tomorrow and not yesterday. Bring on the good news!!!

Shortdata.ca Does someone else have another source they want to share for comparison. Thanks

The only source I use is IIROC, report comes out a few days after mid/end of the month (so maybe tomorrow or Monday). Of note, the founder of interactive brokers was on CNBC yesterday explaining the GME fiasco and one of the things he said was that the reporting should be daily.

might be wrong...on Jan 31 the shorts were 11.8 million...only 12 trading days since that and if you look at total volume...its highly improbable....possible though...wonder if they can short from the us or Frankfurt side?

correction... The chart at shortdata.ca is misleading, and upon further review, looks like 3 million shorts were added. Will be nice to get some clarity on the shorts. Lots of anonymous trades going though, and I always find that odd.

Thanks testomax. I usually use my trading account, but they haven't been updated there either. Shortdata.ca looks to list the number of trades short, volume traded (regular and short), but doesn't appear to show accumulated shorts from previous time periods with shorts that were closed.
