A negative post can be of a gain for those contemplating buying into a share , as long as the the content is substantiated .

It is all true re short selling .
This is done for a reason .Mainly to hammer the share so the Big Boys manipulating the SP can move in and buy on the cheap.

IMO ,Not all short sellers are bad.I never been a short seller. The ones that benefit are the big institutions who can afford to sell a handful on the cheap and buy a bucket at cheaper price.
The big issue with Arafura is Capital Raising ,to continue and move into production .Well over a billion dollar is required .
Finance is not easy to get because the supply of REE exceeds the urgency of the demand.
One day ARU would be in demand.So the big debate is the time frame couple by finance.
I BELIEVE that the reason for the drop in ARU sp, is because,the potential finance institutions that want to T/O would first part finance the capital needed while at the same time acquire a big chunk of the company. Dilution.
This likely to be repeated in future and more dilution ,cheaper sp.
The competition from other interested parties likely to be minimal .
POS of ARU is the elements in the ground (good tenements for long term future for the likes of China)
Negative is the ability for the company to raise required finance,not in short term but to the point of Production .BILLIONS and not just millions to cover on going cost and management salary.

The first producers would be the ones that would benefit the most .
Is this a negative post???? you be the judge.
