Short position is increasing every day .. its getting close to 7% which is considered the beginning of region where shorts take over the stock ... This is a interesting play , if company files 10k with normal data as expected as they have been saying I feel shorts will evaporate in 6 months ...if they fail or 10k has a bad surprise this 7% will go over 10% in a few days .. problem is can you ...more
