More current monitoring of short interest would also make it easier for the SEC to monitor things like illegal naked shorting. Wouldn't that be a nice project?
" I would like to know the Specialist/MM short interest in various stocks, but now I'm dreaming." --------------------------------------------------------------
LOL! Dreaming is right! That would mean that the MMs would have to disclose when they short their own POS IPO clients.
Not likely that the reporting of short interest will be reformed. It's one of the best tools da Boys have for staging short squeezes. Since these always push the price UP, it's hard to see that the constituency for reform (short sellers) is strong enough to get anything done...
You are correct - no one but the MM's know what the short interest in KLIC and just a quick glance at the chart tells you that it is extremely unlikely to be remotely similar to the most recent NAZ report
Very interesting observation fella.... another vien of deception.. Now..can we find a viewer that will allow us at least some picture of reality?? pray tell where will it be?
