Share Price /shortI believe the shorted shares are some kind of edges, they are not naked shorts, it would be suicidal.
The weakness is due to risk off market. Volume is low, this tells me it is the retails that are selling, they are loaded up and may want to reduce their exposure in this down market. The tutes are acumulating as cheap as they can.
This does not change the investment thesis. This is a huge resource and I am convinced that at 3 times the realized prices that the US Bcga gets, with the same unconventional techniques as them, it will be proven economical.
I do not know what the share price will be short term, but as the apraisal phase progress, the value of the play will become evident and the sp will rise accordingly.
We just need to be patient and not be scared by the sp action. It can spike any day.
