I think Erlanger would say the shorts are right and the stock should be sold.

Given that I've been playing with shortweeze's #'s and it seems to be an algorithm that takes the percentage/amount shorted right off the 52 week high and puts that against the stock's recent performance weighed against the 52 week high # with some other factors that could come into play if the situation was different than HSOA's.

In this particular case my guess is that this is saying that most of the stock that's short is much higher than the current price of the stock and that the performance of the stock is not strong enough to force a dramatic squeeze.

[HSOA] I'm not really sure either .. Maybe Sergio / Ken / Bernard will chime in .. But I'm Looking at 8 Days to cover here. We are talking 30+ % of the Float that is Short .. and that could possibly "Need to Cover". Sooooo ..

I'd think a Massive Squeeze if the Sentiment somehow can change. ;)

Take out the 13WEMA with Conviction .. and Longs are ..
"Good To Go". Or in other Words .. It's "All Set Up and waiting for the Train"

I'm just guessing but 8 Days to Cover means ...

it may take 16 Times Average Daily Volume over and Above the Average Volume over a Specified Time Frame to Clear the Short Interest.

Anyone have a Handle on this ??
