Volume occurs on low short days - wash trading.
On most of the days that the stock goes up due to real buying, the short percentage goes up because the stock isn't liquid.
Because of deficiencies in regulations and off shore trading that does not get reported as NSS, there is no way to know if purchases are filled with "borrowed shares", legitimate sales, or just plain counterfeit.
IMO - the issuance of proxies (or lack of same) will tell a tale when the next shareholder meeting is announced. I Googled "JBI United Shareholders" and came up with some interesting info.
