Rick,
As Peter said, these were the numbers for december, as out in ViWes in early january. I believe the most recent short interest is either out already or should be out shortly in Barron's, so if anyone subscibes to this and can post, it would be helpful and appreciated.
Nevertheless, the numbers for friday indicated a bit of a rise in volume again, with some selling off along the way. This may actually be a blessing in disguise, as with the rocky market as of late, many who were in for trading purposes for the panel meeting may have already started getting out, thus taking away some from the likely selling right after the news and providing more of a cushion for all of us. The less the dropoff at that time, the faster it can go about the business of starting its upward move again. Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see how the market and ATIS do this upcoming week.
Have a nice weekend all,
Marshall |
