RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:short interest
Agree that shorts do more due diligence than longs. The retail negativity is a big one, but mrt has to refinance this years debt renewals which have a leverage ratio of more than 80% (due to write downs on properties), meaning that mrt is going to have to pay down some debt on renewal. In 2023, the leverage ratio on renewals is over 60%, mrt likely have to put in money. We are unlikely to see a dividend increase soon, management will want to be sure of the renewals first. I don't understand the shorts either, but they must feel that given the renewals coming, they have time and if there is any issue with a renewal, they will get their payoff. I'm on the other side of the trade, beleiving that management is being conservative so there won't be any problem renewing debt.
