Rapier,

A short sell is just the other side of a long trade. For example, I bought some shares yesterday and so the market maker would likely short an equal amount and it would display as a short sale. They (the MMs) try and stay as neutral as possible while taking the smallest amount of risk and this is accomplished by hedging their activity and focusing on profiting via the spread. It is highly unlikely that there is a nefarious individual or individuals shorting Mexus stock. If someone is shorting Mexus they probably need to wheelbarrow around their massive balls.
