It's interesting to note that if one visits viwes.com , and goes down to where it shows "Top queries on this site ..." 1 day ago, and also two days ago, CTYS is in the 2nd or 3rd place.
It would seem that there is great interest (pun) in knowing how many shares of CTYS are shorted. I admit that this is far from a scientific study, as I don't know how many people know of this website, and also because it's possible that one person checked the short interest on more than one occasion, but I still think it's interesting.
Some of those checking could be longs or potential longs (I think I checked once each day myself) eager to know the short interest, but I also suspect there are many shorts or potential shorts who are checking.
Now, a couple of the names on the list are also companies with small floats, such as INSO (which has a pretty high short interest, in terms of days to cover), and TPRO (which hasn't had much short interest). However, most of the companies on this list are more what I would expect: huge companies trading at very high P/E's, such as DELL, MSFT, ASND. Who knows, maybe it will turn out that CTYS has more shares shorted than any of those companies.
Short squeeze, anyone? |
