Now we're talking, thanks again oldtimer....1 million+, that's a huge jump. I'm thinking the 1 million+ that traded on May 15th....there's a settlement period of 2 or 3 days, so the previous short number might not have included any short selling from that day....meaning the last update of 400 odd thousand up to May 15th, it may not have included dumping on the share offering news...
Its still only about 1/2 of one single % of the 200 million outstanding...but with the typically thin trading here I think we could have another situation like last year where shorts got caught in a bear trap.
