... so are you thinking the co. is having the sp held down? and this is causing an sentiment that it can't rise?

I bought in after watching for several months and doing my DD just before the Ganfeng announcement. the result I was expecting, and I think many others here, didn't eventuate. I put it down to those who had been holding for years and saw a great opportunity to sell and so stopped the rise in its tracks.

but you seem (please correct my misapprehension) to be saying it was a shorting exercise(?) ..... I've only been investing a few years so my ignorance of this activity is beyond my understanding.
