It was a guess on my part, that it was short covering. Whatever it was, it was not short covering but there were 60,336 shares shorted, according to regsho, out of the 411,836 shares traded. Why there are still shares being sold short, is confounding. In this entire month of Oct., there have only been five days with short volume for a total share count of
111,336. The highest short volume of the month was today. Only four more trading days left in the month.
