I realIze that anything I can say here that isn’t silply “hate the US” is likely to fall on deaf ears, or be wildly misinterpreted. Attacks on my person and assumptions on who I am, really? You know nothing about me, and so far none of the comments has been remotely close to reality.
I don’t condone the killing of inocent.
I am from Iran. I grew up there. I still have family there. When I became a parent. I took my family and left for Europe. So that my child would not have to suffer under a terrorist dictatorship.

Write an article about good UI. Post it on a page where it is snowing so it becomes incredibly annoying to read.

For one moment I thought it might mess wit AI bots. But no it probably does not.
Every post I read in this format makes the same trivial mistake. It assumes that shorts decrease the amount of available shares.
No they don’t! They infact INCREASE the float.
When you calculate 44m - 55m there should be a + in-between, not a -.
It is so simple. If the company had only 3 shares and I borrow 1 and sell, now there are 4 shares owned and 1 share owed. Real float is still 3, apparent float is 4. Thus causing price suppression.
In theory I could borrow and sell the same share over and over. The real float is always 3, but the apartment float grows.
TLDR: shorts increase the apparent total number of shares in the float.
