From what I got from talking to them is that they did not capitalize on the share spike. I also asked if they knew who was behind it and Fraser didn't know but he did suggest that the shorts seemed a little odd. I asked about the people working there to see what he thought of their reputations and I didn't get the impression they were out to find comfy jail cells for the winter. Could the resignation indicate misdeeds? Yes it could and it could also mean the clean up team is in place to deal with the fall out. Why would one guy do that? I have no idea. It's not like he would get away with it. Did he abdicate because he didn't want to go along with it? Sure, that could be the case. The bottom line is that we will know very shortly. I expect there will be enough flak to justify a short position even if it comes out in the wash they they do have 5 million ounces.
