ABX big short at average $30.45

This stock has been hit with bad news & also breakdown in the price of gold. Stock had very good support in low $30 area. But it was shorted very heavily in a period of one month where on average over a million shares were shorted a day. Short sellers broker the support of the stock & precipitated the share price decline. I donot have changing short data details for USA. I donot know if the short position of 8.1m shares in USA is even correct. The Canada position is more than double of that.
