Then again, it could be any holder loaning shares out for a fee. Those borrowed shares could be used for another purpose and that is to stack the sell side between now and newsflow in order to suppress the SP for the purpose of accumulation. Of course, its best just to stick to the long term view if one believes the fundamentals are sound and the sector is strong.... and ignore the potential shenanigans going on. BEM has a low MCap compared to its peers and has newsflow building. So if the SP does get played over the next few days, I might just top up.
