Sorry but that info is erroneous. It is actually from January 1999. But if we take the current short interest which is over 6 million shares and divide it by the current daily average (ignoring the skewed monthly average after those 2 high volume days) we are probably in the top ten. For example, if we now average 500,000 shares traded per day, with a short interest of 6M it will take 12 trading days to cover. I know they look at the monthly averages but in Vivus' case we had an unusually high 2 days of volume after the female SD announcement which brings up the monthly average to 1.6M which is not a true picture of our daily trading.
