Viemed Healthcare, Inc. experiences significant increase in short interest while Director sells shares and TheStreet downgrades rating

https://beststocks.com/viemed-healthcare-inc-experiences-significant-in/

Director Nitin Kaushal has disclosed a recent transaction that involved selling a total of 12,087 shares of Viemed Healthcare’s stock. The sale was performed last March 17th with each share sold at an average price of $13.43 making for a total transaction amounting to $162,328.41 USD. Following this operation, Kaushal now owns 102,524 shares in the company valued at $1,376,897.32.

A director selling 10% of their stock holdings isn't usually alarming. They might need liquidity in their personal life.

In addition to these developments, there are reports that TheStreet has downgraded its rating of Viemed Healthcare from “b-” rating to “c” due to separate reasons as indicated in its latest report on May 31st.

Do you happen to know the reason for the downgrade?

And finally, is there any competitive bidding or change in compensation rates being decided that has people speculating with shorts? It doesn't look like the fundamentals has changed. Same inputs are now suddenly reaching a different decision?

What am I missing?

You are missing the complete story which I will post below. This girl is talking about domestic unrest and racial tension in the last paragraph. That means the whole US is going under. I think she is from Brazil. The whole company has six employees, she has three jobs at the same time.   Viemed Healthcare, Inc. has recently experienced a significant increase in short interest

Anybody who has owned QIPT and VMD for any significant length of time knows it periodically goes through these pretty big dips. I wish it wouldn't happen but it does, for whatever reason. And Bruce Campbell's position in these two names has also fluctated quite a bit over the years. I wouldn't be surprised if he buys back in when the technicals for these two names start to look better.

Its uncountable how many times Bruce(who cares)Campbell has been in and out of PHM. The sun doesnt rise and set on Bruce Campbell and I lose no sleep when these dips happen because they never amount  to a hill of beans.Stop loss raids and people being dumb.

This is why I sometimes say during a selloff when someone is dumping shares, "Oh just because." It doesn't make any sense why these hissy fits happen from time to time but there really are some stupid people out there when there is absolutley not one nanogram of a reason for it. What was the reason you panicked and sold out?? Oh, just because.

I'm with you Westcoast.  The month to month noise doesn't really conern me.  I know that a person could take advantage of the fluctuations, and don't begrudge anyone who does.  For myself, I'm old, old-fashioned, and just don't have time.  I had a target price of 22 or maybe 20 in mind when bought a long time ago, and think there's a good chance will get

She better be cute.  I don't mean this in a sexist way.

The journalist is incompetent. Tying a director selling shares in March to an increase in short interest in May is lame. She did not mention that Kaushal exercised options in order to sell shares or that short interest went down in Canada.

I could not agree more Iscfa, this whole article is a load of BS. If this is why investors are selling, then they are fools. 174,000 shares on the short side is nothing, how do people get conned into this garbage? This bogus article gives no reasons for a down grade, aren't journalist supposed to print facts? So what a director sold 12,000 shares in March, how did the stock run to $16.00 if

tingo_inc's refutation of Hindenburg Research's claims has resulted in a swift 10% recovery and a positive market response. Cases like these underscore the importance of having proper financial market regulations.

TheStreet ratings are based on quantifiable anaylsis, which is no better than technical analysis and voodoo. Fundamental analysis is all that counts.

[lscfa]

Quantitative, not quantifiable. Damn autocorrect.
