RE:RE:Short report... yes, a huge increase of the shorts from mid to end of April, but shorts are not necessarily a bad thing.
Consider, NFG saw a pretty much similar balloon in their shorts during that time frame, too, ( 6x vs 77x +/- ) .
Consequence? Many of those shorts goat got toasted big time in just a few trading days this month so far.
It's not all black or white.
