(OFF TOPIC) There's all types of reasons to cover or get squeezed to cover.

When a stock takes a sudden turn upward on heavy volume it's either a suckers rally and the stock's in trouble or something's usually up..

None the less, it makes people concerned and with 10 million short on a 22 million float they might want out before trouble.

Remember Centennial Technologies (CTN)? something like that? They made peripherials for laptops (modems etc..) and fell from something like $30 to about $2-3 when it was disclosed that the company was full of s*it etc.. - That was a classic squeeze because all those shorts that were right had to cover quick while they had time. The stock went from $2-3 to $9+ in one day as everyone panicked - then the company and the SEC shut down the trading at about 2:30pm and the stock hasn't traded since.

So what's up with APM?? I have no idea but you never know?? Today's trading is mellow.
