Back in my day those that deliberately spread false information worked in what were known as "boiler rooms".
In modern times I would suggest those that occupied those "boiler rooms" are now known as "shorters"
The issue is, ASIC believes its good for market liquidity!
Boiler rooms added to stock and market liquidity too!
In my opinion shorting is a scourge used by the big investors to transfer money from retail investors. Nothing more.
All they need most of the time is a fabricated rumour, friendly/dumb journo, and away they go.
Hmmm...., page-57
