5.6 million Float But it will behave like it has 1.6 million float because ~4 million of the float is held by long term holders who have extremely high price targets in the long term and have no plans to sell. The long term share holders have removed their shares from being able to be shorted.
Each time the effective float of 1.6m is recycled the support level rises. As the effective float is recycled there will be shareholders who will simply not sell. Which means the effective float decreases while demand increases.
