The SEC's 'Sacred Cow' List: Where Are WaMu and Wachovia? [View article]
I think your data is wrong. It doesn't make any sense for the finanicals to have a lower short interest than the S&P 500. In fact it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and I gotta say that your data must be wrong. These stocks have been decimated. I wonder if this includes "naked shorts". How are they measuring this, is it the average short interest at the end of the day, or what? I've seen a lot of these companies exchange 20+% of their total shares in one day. This has to be massive short selling.
