RE:RE:Practices in Manipulation

That would be a great start.

Not only for valuation and a much larger investment audience, but for crucial regulatory reasons.

One of the key differences between the NYSE and the TSX is the uptick rule. Please read:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptick_rule

The uptick rule essentially prevents the shorting of a security on an uptick. In Canada, Canadian and American institutional hedge funds have taken advantage of this lack or regulation. Canadian markets are a shorter's paradise. Although I believe AVO was overvalued, it wouldn't be trading at sub-15 if it traded on the NYSE or Nasdaq, since unregulated shorting is not only legal, but encouraged here in Canada where it is not south of the border.
