We found that a stock could have multiple lots of shares that were 10,000 and
higher sold short. Let's say there were three lots and one position gets covered
and drops off the list, but another position comes on and makes it to the list.
So one rolls off and another on. That's why stocks have been on there for so
many days.
It's not one position that hasn't been covered for 15 days. It's probably more
than one.....the table will still have value because it let's people know which
stocks are repeat offenders of traders having open short positions.

Hello Ms. Allard. I saw your article today giving the list of companies on the Reg Sho list. Aren't trades supposed to be covered within 3 days of execution by law? Do you have any information on why this violation of the law is allowed
to continue? Thanks. xxx, Investor
