Mr. Marconi,

I have been trying to model the price action in stocks like YHOO, KTEL, and AMZN which have/had significant short interest. The problem is that there is no hard-core data ... the NASDAQ monthly short interest is only monthly ... real time or daily data would be a VERY valuable commodity ... too bad we don't have access to it. I'm sure I can do some interesting and fairly accurate modeling with that. Anyway, I just wanted to point out to you that you failed to consider that additional shorts were entering AMZN, YHOO, etc. as they go up. Please email me if you would like to discuss things along these lines further.

Ciao,
Don
