>>>>>> I believe historically short positions are notorious for under-reporting, brokers (with no IPM involvement) have verified this to me, also Canadian rules allow shorts to _HIDE_ most of thier position, yet alone elsewhere... I've always assumed over 1 million and I think a boatload went out in the last 2 weeks also... As a gut instinct, I've also felt 800,000 is just too low for the affect and effort they've put against IPM. I believe higher for sure... 2 million, plausible, these people are fat, fat, fat from DELGF, reality as usual is probably in the middle -- and probably a fluid not static #.
Also, all must remember the shorts are not a homogenous block. They are multi-tiered from institutional, MM to "retail"... with varying degrees of strength and vulnerability just like the longs<<<<<< ________________________________________ IMO, I think we'll find that the halt derived from the world of Dempsey Mork. I would examine the history of the relationship between Mork & Puhr, MVPH and the presence of Kugler ( who has admitted to a relationship with Mork) and s martin, who has a history of working , in tandem, with Kugler in attempting to tank other stocks with large short positions. Mork is more intimately involved (IMO) with RMIL than just shorting it and releasing fradulant announcements. IMO...the relationship Mork has/had with Puhr & MVPH will shed light on the halt and the chain of events leading up to it, not to mention aN estimated short position 5-6MM shares on RMIL!!! Pugs |
