There’s a significant amount of disinformation regarding the 140% figure and what it means in practical terms.
I’m curious, do you see a difference between a stock with 99% short interest vs. 101% short interest? If so, what is the difference?
(In my mind, there’s no difference - curious if you see it differently)
