I have a feeling we saw a bit of a squeeze today. Shorts covering on Fridays, probably a few got caught with their pants down today. That being said, I really don't think that there's any significant short position in APDN. I'd be shocked if there was at this point. A few more 20% days like today and you'd see them start to gather like vultures though, LOL.

Here's the latest data:

Date Short Interest % Change Avg. Daily Share Volume Days to Cover Split New Issue
Aug 31, 2012 432,350 2,264.25 4,994,151 1.00 No No

LOL...so between Aug. 15th and the 31st, short interest increased 2,264.25%! But only 432,350 shares shorted over half a month. I imagine the next data set will be higher though, so they are amongst us!

even if they are amongst us, they might get their positions burned, CAT. With a 21%+ friday, there's bound to be a few betting on a pullback.
