Good info... Does anyone know wheat the current Short position is? Am trying to find out if there was significant short covering in the 25m shares traded yesterday. Sure would make me feel a bit better to know shorts covered significantly... Thanks in advance...

Yeah, I knew it didn't answer your specific question, but it's the only reliable source of short interest data (although there seem to be sites that purport to have detailed analysis of more recent short activity, I have no reason to believe they are particularly reliable.)
I've never quite understood why shorts are allowed to operate in stealth mode to the extent they do, but that's the landscape we inhabit...

thanks for the link BD. one possibility is that people are hedging their bets with puts against their larger amount of calls. I'm not doing this; and this is a hefty increase. curious if you'd care to offer your view. appreciated |

BD I have to agree... Just another way retail investors are left to invest in the dark...

iyam, I don't understand hedging via calls/puts well enough to have an opinion. In any case, there's little about stock/option trading activity that is concrete. I've put down my bet and the wheel is spinning, and I can't see myself taking any more action whatsoever until PDUFA.

likewise. I'm sat. Positioned as strong as my confidence.
With new numbers of short position on Monday we'll have an updated view. thanks
