At this points its all moot.....if we get a financing that is able to retire the loan, then we'll see how the market reacts. Even if it happens and the PPS takes off it might not be due to a cause/effect relationship.
Next short interest update should be out Wed/Thurs of next week, which will included the funky Mon/Tues trading.....if that activity was a bear raid as I suspect, then it'll show up in the numbers. That is unless a sudden wave of buying comes in as we close out today's last hour and fifteen minutes of trading....if that were to happen I'd suspect it was covering.
