RE: Shortsthat's quite shocking to see someone shorting at these prices. They were most likely looking to capitalize on some year end tax loss selling. Those who have been bashing the stock the past couple days could also be the ones shorting. It will be interesting to see if some heavy buyers come in on Monday to see how high it goes due to a short squeeze. There could be a short squeeze really soon given that a lot of tax loss selling would have near completion by now - this recent short increase looks like it's based off technicals and targeting tax loss sell season. However, given that the stock is now in oversold territory a recovery should be on the way very soon and it will be a spike due to a short squeeze.
