As you will see, the June short interest in the 28 of the 30 NYSE listed DJIA components was a very mixed bag. Sure there were big gains in some, but 16 of the 28 saw a gain in short interest. That is essentially considered as non-directional for any analysis of a trend. We saw chips and banking short interest rise, but nothing solid as an overall trend linking the DJIA components.
