29 stocks have short interests in excess of 30% (see previous TalkMarkets article here) and they declined 1.6%, on average, in the past week with 12 advancing. Nineteen of the 29 stocks are still up from when the short squeeze began in earnest on January 15th. This article takes a look at the short interest stock activity this past week and their performances since mid-January.
