FCYoga, increase means GOING UP, not GOING DOWN! In the case of Short Interest its some up, some down, some up, some down. So one needs to look at the broader picture over a longer time to see in what direction it is evolving, which can be done on the NASDAQ web-site.

source: PPHM Short Interest on NASDAQ

SHORT Interest Q1/2016: about 11 Mil shares on about 250Mil outstanding
SHORT Interest Q4/2016: about 1 Mil shares on about 250Mil outstanding

DECREASE of 10Mil or 90%. Current Short Interest LESS THEN 0.5% on outstanding shares.

...Short volume tends to increase with garbage companies that need to print shares to survive, like this one...

Really no need to wait for filings, we get them every 14 days and they remain floating around 1 mil shares since JULY 2016. That are FACTS.

Intraday naked shorting (see cheynew's reporting on here) in NOT included in the Short Interest since it is INTRA-DAY. That is, the positions are closed BEFORE the end of the day which means NO CLEARING DELIVERY-PART of the clearing needs to be done and no LENDING takes place.
