those august 130,000,000 were caused by the buyback confusion and not some offshore short seller, in my opinion. Or do you think that the last buyback did not create some inadvertant shorts? Even so, 130,000,000 is insignificant compared to last years short created by the forced "Creative Financing Technology", as demonstrated by the quickly passing away of the short cover.

Exta, thank you. As I said ... there are no paim shorters here.... there are NO REGULAR players shorting paim...

And there is zero proof of any naked shorting of paim

I have Wells Fargo and BOA and Smith Barney as brokers and business bankers. I speak with my personal broker daily ( he is also a long time friend ) the margins and cost to short any of this stuff IF anyone will ... is unrealistic and a huge risk to the limited upside on a penny stock
Other wise ... its not happening in the real world

Thanks for the post

A legal short position held by a hedge fund or major investor happens all the time in the stock world


I don't believe that number is correct due to the buy back:
The last official report, as of August 10, showed over
100,000,000 short.

The last official report, as of August 10, showed over 100,000,000 short.

Yes, it did. Previous reports showed very, very small short positions. So small that they probably weren't intentional.

Makes no sense--unless you're into wishful thinking--that real short interest rose as much as it did between July and August. My take is that the August short interest figure doesn't reflect real short positions, but merely shows bought-back stock that hadn't been returned by the brokerages to PAIM by 10 August.
