So it gets tricky to interpret the declared short position, as reducing the long side of the equation, could theoretically show up as an increased short where the data you're looking at describes net declared shorts. I'd assume (quite possibly naively) that we would more likely see an extension of the long side now that could make it appear that net shorts are reducing. In that scenario there would be no squeeze and the lack of squeeze would not necessarily be due to an orderly reduction of the real short?
