that is very true

in "normal" market conditions we try to focus on a few stocks that have fallen hard and which we think are loaded with shorts

frequently those have a late Friday run for the reasons you listed plus daytraders covering before the weekend
a lot of shorts prefer not to take the risk that some "news" over the weekend will cause a Monday gap up open

the early run Friday changed that equation
