- Out of a total volume of 1 732 632 short shares, 844 302 shares were shorted during the month of August, representing 49 % of their total short volume.
Their shorting activities clearly shows that they are not in a short position accumulation phase. They are shorting as little as they can to keep the share price down so they can, not only cover their short position, but also accumulate as many shares as possible in their long position.
The fact that they had to increase their shorting activities during the month of August is explained by the fact that during that period the market responded with increased buying pressure to the company’s announcements / accomplishments. Do not let the manipulators fool you, regardless of what they are saying on different forums, they too think that HPQ’s share price is about to go up.
