RE:RE:Proof of a short squeeze on Monday?
If anything this data shows that short sellers have a well oiled machine and access to resources you and I do not.
To be able to access over 21 million shares on 'short order'.... (no pun intended here)... In order to cover their previous 
short order sales... And thus ride the upward share price is a logical conclusion of what has happened. But what I read
on some of the posts on Reddit (Wallstreetbeat) is that even with a squeeze on shorts... As it happened with Tesla
the shorts managed to make billions while the share price of the company went back down afterward.
I am long PYR, have been invested for over 4 years, love the company, the products, the people... hate to see 
anyone messing around with it. But I agree with you that because they will have to cover... We may experience
more of these. Just have to be prepared...

Not impossible lot of naked shorting going on...which they'll will eventually have to cover.  
Could be great short sqeeze w the right catalysts.

Long and strong PYROGENESIS
