When you see 40% of the shares on OTCQX shorted, that is hightly unsual given the improving fundamentals for the company and the industry. It's a target for the shorts until they cover and they can wait it out until the share price starts to move up.

The short position in the OTCQX market can be covered by buying shares in the TSX. The shares are in DTC "street name" and could be electronically transferred. Nonetheless 40% of the shares on the OTCQX are shorted. Overall about 8M shares shorted collectively on both exchanges and would not be considered large as it would be only about 8 or less days of average daily volume.

Also, the head troll has said if XBC makes its numbers that there will be a rapid increase to $4.00. That's what I'm banking on. A very, very good return in just a couple of months.

We don't know if the 500K sold by Goldman was a short sale or not: it's a possibility.

I originally thought that too, but I now think they were working a block for a client who wanted out.

Whatever Goldman is doing they are doing it again today. Over a 100k so far. The bigger concern for me is there something we are missing as xbc seems to be a total train wreck yet we think they are going to turn it around

I think tou are 100% correct. Looks like someone in the know is aware that Xebec is facing some problems.

Hard to say, they are very tight lipped: they wouldn't even give a hint for 2022 revenues when asked in the Q3 call. Any selective disclosure on bad news is unlikely and illegal.
