Jan, I have seen the term "short squeeze" in about one out of three threads here for the last three weeks, with no facts to back it up. Nobody will know the recent short volume for another week, and even then, it will be just one lump-sum, static figure for the previous several weeks. It will not show any trends or day-to-day changes. Victor, The annoying part is short interest can easily be calculated at the close of business eachnight. All shorted shares are in type 3 at brokerage accounts. The information is just not disseminated for whatever reason. I would like to know why. Glenn
