The site shows PBLS with over 100M shares short going into December… they update monthly.
This looks to be legitimate information…
"ACCESS THE SQUEEZETRIGGER (TM) PRICE ON 15,000 US STOCKS Our SqueezeTrigger database of nearly 300,000,000 short sale transactions goes back to January 1, 2005 and calculates the exact price at which the Total Short Interest is short in each stock. This data was never before available prior to January 1, 2005 because the Self Regulatory Organizations (primary exchanges) guarded it aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation SHO, exchanges were forced to allow data processors like Buyins.net to access the data"
So not only do we have 100M share buyback going on, but we also have over 100M shares that need to be bought for short covering.
Even if the float is higher than previously thought, we will surely see some fantastic fireworks here in 2006!
