The September Nasdaq short interest figures were released last night. For VVUS: 10,266,009 shares were short as of the 9/15/97 close, down 1.1% from August. Only 18,298,400 shares have traded in the 7 sessions since 9/15. Of course, divide that figure by at least 2 (maybe as much as 3) to account for an MM being in the middle of every transaction. Also be aware that the volume has been highly inflated during those 7 sessions by an inordinate amount on intraday trading by SOES bandits. So, it is highly unlikely that even 25% of the short interest has been covered yet. The best is yet to come............
