This is the folly of 'earnings season'. This is horrible performance yet somehow it is juiced up. Even in the fixed income area, this is very easy to achieve but somehow they can't hack it. It did have an uptick in short interest attached to it so this could be a reason however with those numbers it can't be all short covering.
These numbers reported are lagging so much can change in the period of time these are reported and the earnings are released.
