Quoting WON "There is no positive rule governing how high the index
should go, but you can study past general market bottoms to review what
has happened to the short-interest ratio in former periods."

Subject: [CANSLIM] short interest
 
At what point does short interest reach a high enough level that you
would not buy a stock?  I have a stock on my watchlist right now with
short interest of 20 days.  This seems very high to me.  I know we want
a healthy amount of short interest to drive the price, but 20 days?
Where would you draw the line?
