Never say never...in politics
EG.......Brexit
Also it's not the actual impact it's the uncertainly that damages the S/P imo

Beware of all utilities....as Labour has plans for them

Most likely MW closed their shorts having borrowed and sold BUR shares around 1100/1200p
Then bought them back the day of the crash around 400/500p to return the borrowed shares having made around 125%%.
Why would MW wait around when their profit was so huge....far more than they ever thought

By undermining IQE Accounts saying their joint ventures accounts were propped up by hidden/undeclared IQE monies
MW failed to prove anything and have never tried it again.
IQE recovered but not completely
I hold IQE shares.....hence my interest here.

MW is a private company so I'm not sure we will ever see their Accounts

You are right the trade data is unreliable...VOL is correct but not the cost of the trade
Best to check the London Stock Exchange for accurate data.
This is the UT trade from the LSE site

I reviewed Burford's rebuttal document here in yesterday's SCVR. It comes across very well, I think - giving plausible-sounding explanations to refute Muddy Water's claims. Similarly, I tuned in to the conference call yesterday afternoon, but had enough after about 90 minutes. Again, management seemed thorough in their answers, and give the impression of being determined to restore theirs and the company's reputation. Subjectively, it seemed to me that management were giving honest answers, and didn't seem to be hiding anything.

It seems fairly clear that Burford is likely to take Muddy Waters to court, over what it seems as market manipulation. I think that's probably a good thing. Shorting dossiers are fine if they reveal a fraud, like the many Chinese companies, and others like Globo, and Quindell.

However, if they try to deliberately trigger a plunge in share price, by putting out a dossier that turns out to be full of inaccuracies & misrepresentations, then the shorter looks, prima facie, guilty of market manipulation.
