I think the short interest numbers are suspect. The number only changed by a few thousand shares from last month. I believe there is a huge position short against the box. I also believe that one clearing firm in particular has been reporting a wash position as naked short because of varying account types. How else can one explain the complete lack of upward momentum even with news or attempted squeeze plays.


A couple of reasons:
1) Maybe most shorts are convinced CUST is a POS and not only covered when it moves up but short more.
2) Maybe those who were long and rode CUST as a momentum play in the past see it now as roadkill waiting for the ravens to pick it apart. They may be losing interest in CUST as a momentum play.

I agree with Tom. I think there is massive short interest in CUST.
