RE:Wow, I give upNext short posting will confirm how the manipulation works. If the short shares drop from the current 17.5 million to around 9 million on the next report, it will confirm the scam. Basically funds are hammering AR with short sales with no real possibility of purchasing them back without driving the sp through the roof. However, I suspect they have a side agreement with another Investment fund - like the Sprott sponsored fund that picked up 8 million of the shares in a bulk purchase last week. If the short shares drop accordingly to this sale it will illustrate how funds collude to manipulate share prices. Highly illegal I suspect, but AR's slack-jawed management just sits back, collects their fat paycheques and lets it happen.
