Is InterOil on Reg SHO list !?!?! - johnwgrant - 11-19-2013
Follow this link and tell me if I am reading this right:

Here's the line I care about....
Date|Symbol|ShortVolume|ShortExemptVolume|TotalVolume|Market
20131115|IOC|335380|100|947571|Q
Now, would some of you experts tell me if this means anything ?!?! I certainly am not depending on the SEC to stamp out illegal short-selling. Just wonder if this means that the "crooks" in the marketplace have to go to more trouble to hide their tracks . . .

Hmmm... it appears that this is just the daily file of shares sold short. Basically says that about 1/3 of shares traded on Friday were short sales.
Since the total volume was 3.2 million on Friday, I don't know why these numbers are so far off (unless they represent Thursday transactions which had a volume of 927,200 -- less than the 947,571 in the link provided).
Also, anyone know if the "Short Volume" is only for "Short Sales" -- or do they include in this number "Buy to Cover" (a Short Sale) ?!?!

FWIW - Here's the next day's info (clearly this is only a subset of the total trading volume)
