Ahaaaa...makes sense now
Short position report I'm assuming
15th? What report?
Thanks Steve,
they're still at it a bit today.
I'll be interested to see the 15th's report.
Seasonal shorting is my guess, but to me that only applies to companies that are established, then you can trade cyclical like.
TEAR is still an infant.
Yeah really.... watched it yesterday (in and out all day) and even volume was up a little. Makes ya wonder- do the shorts actually know something or are there so many of them now and nothing's happenin with the stock that they're able to pressure it?
ouch, what happened?
Happy Thanksgiving folks
I love Thanksgiving turkey...
it's one of the few times you see natural breasts.
Thanksgiving Day, a function which originated in New England two or three centuries ago when those people recognized that they really had something to be thankful for -- annually, not oftener -- if they had succeeded in exterminating their neighbors, the Indians, during the previous twelve months instead of getting exterminated by their neighbors, the Indians. Thanksgiving Day became a habit, for the reason that in the course of time, as the years drifted on, it was perceived that the exterminating had ceased to be mutual and was all on the white man's side, consequently on the Lord's side; hence it was proper to thank the Lord for it and extend the usual annual compliments.
The very fact that a man is thankful implies someone to be thankful to.
Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence.
My mother is such a lousy cook that Thanksgiving at her house is a time of sorrow.
I have strong doubts that the first Thanksgiving even remotely resembled the 'history' I was told in second grade. But considering that (when it comes to holidays) mainstream America's traditions tend to be over-eating, shopping, or getting drunk, I suppose it's a miracle that the concept of giving thanks even surfaces at all.
Gluttony and surfeiting are no proper occasions for thanksgiving.
An optimist is a person who starts a new diet on Thanksgiving Day.
Shorts are not gonna give up
Yeah mon.
purty sweet eh?
Giving the shorts some headaches today it appears
TEAR
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, TearLab's net revenues were $1.2 million, an increase of 264% from $333,000 for the same period in 2011 and up 69% sequentially from $716,000 in the previous quarter. A total of 92 orders for TearLab systems were booked in the period. Of those, 77 were through the Company's access programs, six were direct purchases and nine were purchased outside of the U.S.
The Company's net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was approximately $4.6 million, or $0.17 per share. This included approximately $2.0 million, or $0.07 per share, in non-cash expenses related to the revaluation of warrants issued in June 2011 and the issuance of shares for management bonuses. In last year's third quarter, there was an approximate $3.3 million, or $0.16 per share, non-cash gain related to the revaluation of the same warrants and debt conversion that resulted in the Company reporting a profit of $1.1 million, or $0.06 per share ($0.05 on a fully diluted basis).
As of September 30, 2012, the Company had $18.4 million in cash.
short interest for end of October reported, 3,121,916 - up about 300,000 shares, I'm sure it's yet higher taking into account the November trading.
Today might have been the day. I added some at $3.85 fwiw.

Still holding- waiting to see if it dips back sub 4 to possibly add.
The short "squeeze trigger" should be from here on upwards!
This is getting shorted based on a seasonal report? This would only hold true if company material events remained the same, TEAR has had many positive advances since then:

TEAR wants to riiiiiiiiiiiiiip. Just let it goooooooooooo!
SIA-Chart on TEAR : Very Bullish : Besides having a superman show up, which happens when the stock goes 5% above its 100 day moving average. We also have a super cross show up which means that the 50 day moving average has broken above the 100 day moving average, which is also very bullish and means that buyers are coming in big time.
akrx would be a good candidate......
Who do you have in mind?
Watch for a buyout!

classic, love that movie.
Randolph Duke: Money isn't everything, Mortimer.
Mortimer Duke: Oh, grow up.
Lol, I'm feeling evil all of a sudden.
Ha ha holy cow!
That's got to be some kind of record.
All because they can't read between the lines of a start-up?
Oh boy.
Exactly, I just edited my previous post to show the short position increase.
There are some stubborn shorts here too,
I'll look forward to that day. :-o
All we need now is news releases on major deals (which will come), and this will cause some short covering spurred with new buying.
Short interest has climbed quite a bit this year,
