I’m no expert on the shares etc….but once upon a time a shares float mattered, when we had an SEC that was awake/not deep in Debbie does Dallas, now I fear that Float is meaningless, especially with all the Dark Pools aka Bank Run Rip Off Centres, where no-one seems to worry etc.
Also one just has to look at the way NEM etc are sat on to control the Hui/GDX, to see that unlimited shorting goes on all day every day and I bet not 1 share is borrowed and delivered within the 3 or 5 day window…
Plus when was the last time anyone heard of a short squeeze on an individual stock……it seems stocks are now just like Commodity Futures, they can trade in unlimited volume.
