You have to realise that the Shorters (And I agree / they absolutely do destruct and bring Companies down) attack certain types of Companies. They look at Companies with poor Balance Sheets and specifically low cash. Companies in industries where it’s no skin off anyone’s nose if their actions tip the balance sheet into the red by forcing higher Financing Costs ie : Low SP.
They make their cash margin and recycle that into basically the same business under a different name in the form of Financing (Now at more Beneficial Rates to support growth).
Art wants to stay in his lifestyle and so will do absolutely anything to keep funding himself at the expense of anything else. Not in strict adherence to his responsibility to SH I know / but there it is.
Art raises cash under whilst Balance Sheet under Stress further increasing Risk. Everything now has to go right.
The Shorters imo are scum and in Germany I believe the “Activity” is banned.
Art can win the battle against the Short by fixing his Balance Sheet over time.
Shorters Target weak Balance Sheets. Recycle their own gains in the same Asset once a New Company takes over.
All the while the Asset remains the same. It never changes. But the Shorters grow their influence over it. Ingenious really.
A Strong Balance Sheet stops this altogether. Enter the CFO.
