Hi All
trying to learn more about shorts and borrowed shares, up to this stage never concerned me but trying to learn more so any help from people good with this type of thing input would be nice

on the short graph(shortman) Romme has posted at the bottom of the page/site there is a part that says "found here" that seems to click you over to a asx sheet and under pet it say 505k so does that mean that amount of shares was shorted today ? the graph seems a few day behind but the report seem more up to date. i get the graph part that say 8m share shorted in total just wandering if the other part is the amount shorted today ?

other question is on the asx site in the search bar if you type in loaned shares it comes under with some parts i clicked on part 1 daily market report outstanding loaned positions and under pet it comes up with 11.5m does this mean that is the amount of shares instos have lent out ?

ps ed and sammy you are not alone with nice response from the company to questions, perhaps if the report was easy to follow they would not get enquirers, they don't need to give names of lakes or size but be very clear on how many project we are working on. ie was east lake and the second apline lake the two trails mentioned on the 23/8 ?

thanks
