Andrew,
I think Marc is right, 2615,344 is October figure. Nov figure seems to down about 2%. Based on the volume in past 7 trading days, I suspect the majority of the shorts haven't cover yet. See what will WCW Nitro PC and Thunder PSX do to them... Again, THQI closed above the open by half point and this is a bullish sign.

btw, thanks very much for provide PC Data result to us. That's very helpful :o)
