Has the Lifetime Fitness Short Squeeze Started?

Holding Rationale for LTM.

This is in relation to my earlier post on LTM.

LTM started the day off down over 5% and down over 30% since June 6th, despite essentially no company specific news. The 5% drop today came before the market tanked over 1%. It then steadily climbed into positive territory on 2.5x average volume. The climb continued even as the market declined, possibly signaling a short squeeze as over 50% of LTM shares are sold short.

I'm expecting the uptrend to continue for a while, since it will take quite a bit of buying, even on 2.5x average volume, to cover all those shorted shares.

On another note, LTM looks very attractive fundamentally.
