I am no expert when it comes to short interest in a stock. Could someone interpret the following short interest in TMCS.

viwes.com

It looks like the short players are gone. From my understanding, when there are a lot of short positions in a stock, this is when you can get a great upwards price movements as the short players panic and have to repurchase shares. But TMCS has very little short positions. So when the merger is finally voted down, TMCS should raise but it looks like we will not get that huge move everybody wants.

Any comments?
