There are no facts--- only interpretation
Bombardier went up last week and it's going down this week. Big surprise. Shorts can pummel a stock that's been struggling. They target companies where enthusiasm is waning, and they figure there's at least some investors with weak knees who can be shaken out. Of course shorts aren't everything, but they can make up a significant percentage of transactions when a stock is drifting. Shorts got scared last week, this week they're feeding on their own folly. No surprises there either. Bombardier has been and will continue to be at the mercy of the shorts until something changes. Shorts, like any other group of investors vary in terms of how much homework they do. Many just hope to piggyback on the momentum of current investor sentiment. They bet on what's trendy and can be dramatically surprised when events turn against the thinking that happens to be in vogue. Expect shorts to pile back in anytime the share price pops on positive developments - once the upward momentum subsides. This is normal. Bombardier's share price will continue to be volatile until something changes. As most shorts realize , when a stock gets pounded down this much, there isn't really much left in the way of weak knees.
