One thing that I've come to the realization of recently is that the "short numbers" published are only the number lent out. They have not necessarily been sold. So for instance someone could borrow them (and pay a fee) and never sell so they can cover any time. So the shortman numbers published don't serve much purpose. And while we were saying they have 15 million to cover, they maybe covering as we speak. If they can drop the price on little volume and buy back double the amount to get back to the originating price they are effectively covering if they are in deficit. Then they just give them back when they want (at $10 if they want) . It's at that point the shortman figures will go down.
