Short Activity in PNV, page-2044

I posted this in another thread, but is obviously more suited here;

The conversation here about index rebalancing presumed that shorts would cover most/all their short if/when it happens.

After fact checking what happens to short interest on index removal, the logical conclusion is that the big short on PNV will mostly remain post rebalance.

Where the f*#k are they getting most of the 67m shares from???

I'll tell you where... at much much higher prices, that's where.
