They dont want to get caught with their pants down like we all did last June I also think big draws are finally right around the corner causing oil prices to finally recover. Oil bulls have been so wrong as late, but it can only last so long. I also think US SPR finally stopping and Saudi cuts starting in July will have a tangible impact to sentiment. Also, it seem that AECO has been holding up pretty good considering all the downward pressure on oil lately. Texas, china, Europe heat waves hav been signficant. I think the entire oil sector is coiled and ready to shoot higher, its just a matter of when. I wish I was short last June, but would not want to jump in the short trade now. Full disclosure- I do not short anything.

3 million shares short isn't nothing, but yeah it's not much for a 280 million share base. It's been , more or less, at that level since last November so shorts have had very little influence here. Isn't it just obvious it's wti, aeco, it's factors outside the company's control. Why can't investor just sell if they don't like management and accept 100% of the "blame" for their losses due to timing of the purchase. Yes, if you bought a year ago at $4 or more, you got smoked. Your bad. Just you. Not you PJ, the comment applies to us all. I've been there done that but I typically pull the parachute long before we fall 50% or more.
