Well, we're agreed on one thing then: i hate f...ing shorting and wish it could be outlawed. Creates an environment where it pays to damage companies rather than just support them. It only exists to make money. At least when buying shares and being long you are of course also wanting to make money but you are also supporting companies wanting to grow and generate success. Of course there are plenty of examples on AIM where some unscrupulous individuals have no intention of running successful companies and only in it to may themselves handsome salaries courtesy of hoodwinked pis. One prime example being Eurasia Mining (EUA). As bad as it gets. BODs announced they wanted to sell the company several years ago. BlackRock got involved and the Sp went from 1p to 41p. Blackrock then shorted all the way down, and the sp is now back at 3p and guess what, no sale, no licenses approved and not a single thing delivered that has been promised in nearly 4 years. Total scam run by total scum. There, that feels better having got that off my chest.
