@MirCat; what Australia's 'regulatory authorities' including ASIC have allowed is the stuff of third world countries.
Recently they've even enabled and allowed the predatory short-selling by American hedge funds of early stage critical mineral companies which Australians hope will become our future BHPs.
IMO we'd be better served if our 'corporate regulators' ceased to exist at all since in reality they serve as protection rackets for foreign corporations.
As just one example - those 'investing' in ASX listed companies are required to constantly update their holdings in ASX listed companies. The same rule does NOT apply to '
short-sellers'.
