bassguy - you are right that they were classed as buys at the time. The reversing off and replacing with one great big Buy simply makes it clear that these trades are all connected and undertaken on behalf of the same organisation.
On the end of 29th May Vaneck reported increasing their holding by 348,250 on the previous day.
On the end of 30th May Vaneck reported increasing their holding by 3,064,820 on the previous day.
Consolidations started before Vaneck's holding started increasing and were for example 500,000 on the 28th May.
Thus I do not believe Consolidations are signs of Vaneck purchasing shares, but rather shorters in the same mould as TPEP reversing out of their positions.
I don't believe that we have seen the end of these consolidations, or even the start of reports of the increasing of the Vaneck holding.
