Sorry, trying to reconcile the comments.

LifeOfPi mentioned the short float to = 7%. Chollida1 mentioned the 7% figure was using 273mil shares as a base.

So wouldn't the total shorted shares equal 19mil? (19mil = 273mil X 7%). However, Chollidal mentioned in the first post that 27mil shares are shorted. Trying to figure out how to bridge the gap between 19mil and 27mil...

PS. Not trying to nit-pick. The comments are very useful. Maybe I'm missing something....

Time of reporting matters here. Some report every 15 days. others with a different time frame. Probably that's the reason for discrepancy?
