HYPERSOLAR INCORPORATED (OTCMKTS:HYSR) Shorts Decreased by 43.72% After Short Covering

We are not talking about people selling shares or short-term investors, we are talking about people who shorted the stock and covering (buying) shares. I don't know if you have ever shorted a stock before but it means that you sold shares you don't own, intending to buy them back at a later date because you expect the price to fall. This is a very risky bet because the potential for loss is infinite.

Because of this, brokerages will usually automatically buy back the shares if the price rises too much. I believe this is what is being referred to as a "short squeeze." These people don't have to get together to discuss this, the brokerage just does it for you because they are potentially at risk as well when it starts jumping too high.

As for what news is coming up, who knows? Long-term stability, prototype (a man can dream, soon!), voltage increase (which we don't need right now considering they confirmed the new compound they found can work as well as platinum)

HYSR has a habit of releasing something every few weeks, and the stock usually rises a bit afterwards. People who are shorting the stock may even just be getting scared that a release is due soon and are buying the shares back just in case. It's all going to play into buying to cover shorts.
