I wouldn't make the assumption that Hodson actually sold all his NOT shares outside the Sprott group of funds. It is conceivable he could have make a cross to another Sprott fund, "anonymous" to "anonymous", and used the opportunity to say he sold to the BNN viewership to facilitate a short trade in the other account. Interesting that JFT stayed clear of NOT on BNN one week later. Interesting Sprott is still a large holder of NOT shares. And you know that the mission of these funds is to reduce their exposure to zero thru trading stock at every "opportunity".
