on your Short data and analysis. It would be impossible for any company to see the pps rise if 50% of the shares are naked shorted. IMPOSSIBLE!!!
That website only shows you the "daily" short volume. It is meaningless on it's own.
The trade cycle for shorting is Trade Date plus 2 days for settlement. The daily data that you are showing only shows the first leg of a transaction. It doesn't reconcile the data based upon settlements made seconds later, or 2 days later.
The only place to get accurate short data is FINRA.
A site like your "OTC short reports" is a "for-profit" site and makes $$$ with clicks and advertising. It is only for the uninformed investing public. Read their disclaimers.
That is why only FINRA is the official short data to be trusted. FINRA updates their info bi/monthly.
