Heads Up SEC Your new list is absurd;
look at these quick comparisons......
IBM's float is 1.35billion Short Open interest 14.74 mil. HRB's float is 315 mil with SOI at 9.9 million
SMall Cap 1 Example 75 mil Float with 25 million short.
Small Cap 2 Example 16.5 million float 3.2 million short.
No Market prices, SEC aiding big caps with no discernable threat from SOI, while my list of 80 odd companies says,
You are not doing your job. These legal positions in these small caps never get squeezed, why is that? Plenty of buying, great news and fundamentals, strong financials. How do I know? Because i count, no market prices, just a computer moving prices within the shadow metrics of systemic interests.
