Medical Facilities Corp T.DR

Alternate Symbol(s):  MFCSF

Medical Facilities Corporation is a Canada-based company, which owns a portfolio of surgical facilities in the United States. The Company owns interest in four specialty surgical hospitals (SSHs) located in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and South Dakota, and one ambulatory surgery centers (ASC) located in California. ASCs are specialized surgical centers that only provide outpatient procedures, whereas SSHs are licensed for both inpatient and outpatient surgeries. The SSHs and ASC provide facilities, including staffing, surgical materials and supplies, and other support necessary for scheduled surgical, pain management, imaging, and diagnostic procedures and derive their revenue primarily from the fees charged for the use of these facilities. In addition, two of the SSHs provide urgent care services. The facilities focus on a limited number of clinical specialties such as orthopedics, neurosurgery, pain management and other non-emergency elective procedures.

RE:RE:RE:Wow, a substantial short position on this one...Good point.

Even the proposed underwriter of a pp  could be shorting the stock if they believe the market in the future may be softer. They would then make their money on the short side, do the u/w and then cover.  This happens most often with penny stocks.

Or it could be as simple as a plain short attack. They don't even have to have a reason. If they suspect management at DR is not savy enough to handle such an attack they would go for it.. Its risky but shorts can have a lot of power, at least at the initial stage of the attack.
