Hold Fire, i don't know if you know what a "Short Seller Report" is, but im currently reading the 8 k filings, US version of a RNS. I see they issued warrants, $11.50 and considering where its Sat that seems implausible, can be a Red herring at times. Drops below $1, does a stock split and the its not Extended to warrants so need to assess that. Certainly the Short Seller Report is always damaging hack job.
A short-seller report is an investigative document published by an activist investor that details negative allegations about a public company to drive down its stock price. The goal is to profit from a drop in the company's stock by having already placed a "short" bet, which means the short seller profits if the stock price falls. These reports often allege financial trouble, fraud, overvaluation, or accounting issues, and the claims are spread through media and social media to amplify their impact.
What it is: A report, also called a short-seller attack, is a research report containing negative allegations about a public company.
Purpose: The short seller's objective is to cause the company's stock price to fall so they can profit from their short position.
How it works:
The short seller first takes a short position, which means they borrow shares of a company and sell them, hoping to buy them back later at a lower price.
They then publish a report detailing allegations against the company, such as financial misconduct or accounting problems.
The report is often accompanied by a campaign across social and traditional media to spread the allegations and create a negative sentiment around the company.
If the stock price drops as a result of the report, the short seller buys back the shares at the lower price to return them to the lender, pocketing the difference as profit.
Impact on the company: The publication of these reports can significantly damage a company's reputation and stock price.
