BTE short position $26.5 m shares

[PUNJABI]

A break-out over $2.00 will force some of the short sellers to cover.  It is surprising that 26.3 million shares are still shorted when the stock would be a cash cow at current oil prices. The most likely premise of this short position would be that oil prices are not sustainable and would pull back.
