I like to look at past history and trends. We all know what happened during the PO. But if we look at the last time POET had a big short as reported on that short report chart Sept 1,2015 it was in fact related to exercising warrants. That chart shows 5.5 million short but if we look at the short report as published by Stockwatch (it is updated 2 days later) it did not show any change in the short position. Which actual makes me a little suspicious of the source of that data. However the volume as represented on that chart does match the event and it was all selling through Anonymous over the time period. 15 million shares sold by Anonymous in that event. If we look at the current short report period 9.3 million shares have been bought through Anonymous (the biggest buyer instead of the biggest seller). And if we look at the biggest seller during the PO that drove the short position it was Anonymous.
So like I said... in my opinion nothing is as it seems. The technology I believe is going to be a big winner and the market for it is massive. Lets see what happens when POET rubs shoulders with some of the big guys on the panel at their presentation in the next couple weeks.
