Dave935;

I have just finished calculating short interest for Seagate based on Zacks figures. As I mentioned this week and last week Seagate now has the lowest short interest figure it has had within the last 2 years. It has dropped from its high of 4.45% in February, 96 to 2.35% currently. By my calculations short interest has dropped axprox. 890,000 shares or another 16% this month. Combined with last month that's a total for 32%. What is most significant is that the short interest ratio has dropped from 5.51 2 mos. ago to 2.21 last month to what I believe, is about 1.5, currently. This is a very low ratio when the current NYSE average ratio is about 5 or 6 ( although, currently probably lower). This definitely portends an uptrend over the next few months and this is one reason why I am so bullish. Medium term (6 mos.) Seagate is a strong buy and probably long term (2 yrs.) too. My ALERTS are applicable to the next few days or weeks but they are important too.
