Just guessing, I think shares available to short controls this, the less shares available, the higher the interest, and visa versa. Supply and demand. What we've seen, I think, is relaxation on the demand side. Isnt it getitng up there again? Or is it at 130 million when interest starts getting jacked up

Thanks for the info!
Poor mannkind got heavily shorted yesterday. Stuffed full of shares short. Stock dropped from 59 to 43 cents last time this happened. Bearish short term. Good luck.

Well still not knowing the intrinsics of short covering including the way the days to cover changes so dramatically.. I'm guessing the SI increasing to 105,000 is a good think since we have gone up about 10-15 cents the last 10 days and SI went up.. and more people have to cover eventually.

IMO the share price went UP because a few million short shares were covered. There wasn't any good news that caused the increase. Don't worry, it will go back down then they'll cover again and it will go up then they'll short and it will go down, then up / down (repeat)

They SI will continue to play this game until scripts continue to trend upward or some material event occurs. IMO Been going on ever since I've been invested in MNKD. MNKD has opened my eyes to the evil SI can do to a company. It's crap and should be illegal. IMO

not sure why I'm liking this but just figuring if S/I went up .. more shares have to cover and we are 50% of the 40's.. sounds good to me.

Things can change in 4 days but short data looks much better since dec 16th. 1st week of January should be interesting.
