I can remember at least one major newsletter that focused on drilling schedules in recommending buying junior mining shares....
And some of the posts I have read here reflect similar thinking...saying 'what is out there that can make the price move up soon?'
This view might see NOT as focusing on less exciting Windfall obligations now?...and other peoples drilling results seem far off to these potential buyers?
I have never believed much in short selling theories killing a stock price. Seems like witchhunting...saying the devil is out there and has lots of evil friends
Some of the smartest short sellers I have heard of, are scared of shares like NOT that can kill you to the upside....unless you have some option protection available as a hedge.
