Total Short Sales for period 15032018-21032018 4.2M
The above data was provided by :https://www.shortman.com.au/stock?q=KAS
The total KAS shares (4.2M) shorted for the above period did NOT show up on the ASIC Daily Positions List for period 15032018-21032018 as these shares were sold in the morning and bought back before ASX closing afternoon and therefore are not required to be declared.
But here is were the share price manipulators maintain an undervalued SP by selling at a low SP and then buying back at same if not lower SP and hence ensuring a down ramped SP from day to day. Also supportive is the actual Shorts as a % of volume on the day.
Safe to say that if you are selling/buying volumes of 4.2M shares you are a serious player with intent.
