That short statement is utter nonsense. NASDAQ short-sale circuit breaker site for today (so far) does not show PPHM as shorted: http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader.aspx?id=ShortSaleCircuitBreaker Nor is there ANY evidence from the NAZ on naked shorts (info from yesterday, 29-Dec-15): http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader.aspx?id=RegSHOThreshold
