BRN Discussion Ongoing

But, will their be dancing?

I expect should they survive Fact Finder's punishment and rehabilitation process, the shorters will be performing interpretative dancing but only on the inside.

But, will their be dancing?

If @Fact Finder 's punishment routine includes bare foot on hot coals, then YES, there will be dancing.

 

[Fact Finder]

Very valid points indeed.
While I don't mind people short trading, I must clarify, I don't like when they spread fear among investors to gain advantage.

As to your scientific evidence question, I know along with Australia, countries like France, Spain, Italy, Canada etc banned short selling during 2008'09 saga. Australia reinstated it as we know, not sure how other countries are going. If someone is involved in those countries' exchanges might be able to comment.
I assume there'll be still the factor of spreading fear in order for them to enter cheaply in a stock.

This statement might be controversial, but some may remember posters bashing BRN so much on HC a few years ago until they got their fill, and then turned to be pro Akida once they got their shares.
So whether short sales are gone or not, those with less integrity will continue to do their thing, when it's $$$$ on the line. Investors just will need to keep doing their DD, and as FF often says, have a plan and execute it without fail.

Hi BL
Ages ago now I read the report supporting the reintroduction of short selling and without sounding like a cynical old fellow who has nothing good to say about anyone it was far from independent and sounded more like the fox doing an independent assessment on whether farmers should persist with locking up their chickens at night.

True scientific experimentation requires a control group of the same constitution so the only way for the experience of the ASX to count is to run two markets side by side for ten years at least on my reckoning to allow full market cycles to play out. This is obviously not feasible in a practical sense so back to my regulatory plan for wiping out manipulators in a just and fair manner.

Regards
FF

So you are in favour of the gallows. Hanging is very cruel I would never support that so absolutely no dancing.

I'm pretty sure they stated in the newsletter that the podcast was on a break (into October I think).

I don't remember seeing this but thanks for pointing it out mate

Goodness me burning coal is politically incorrect in the extreme. As exquisite a punishment as it might be we need our government to act responsibly.

Bamboo is sustainable so a sound beating of the soles of their feet while in the stocks is a reasonable alternative and environmentally sustainable. A win win for the markets and the environment.

Sign the Petition:​

Ban the Predatory Short Selling of Financial Securities​

Recently, we have seen billions of dollars wiped from global and Australian equities markets in part due to the practice of Short Selling. This predatory trading technique is often executed in conjunction with algorithmic "bot trading" and has lead to the destruction of the hard earned savings of everyday investors, self managed super funds and retirees.
In particular, the big four banks (ANZ, CBA, NAB, WBC) have had their shares savaged by offshore short sellers which has impacted the large amount of Australian investors currently holding these companies.
During the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), we saw regulations introduced to ban the short selling of financial stocks to add stability to the financial system. Once the market stabilised and confidence returned we saw these short selling bans removed.
We now see ourselves entering a similar period of uncertainty where international hedge funds are targeting Australian financial stocks to gain exposure to the overall Australian market. We now believe it is reasonable to reinstate these bans on short selling in the financial sector as a measure to add financial stability to the market.

I agree as BL has mentioned it has been banned!! (suspended) before in hard times maybe it's time to do it again!!

During this volatile time, we believe that this counter-productive trading activity should be banned to protect everyday Australian investors who rely on the stock market to build their wealth and fund their retirement.

We are calling on all investors to join us in signing our Petition to Ban the Predatory Short Selling of Financial Securities, which we will present to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). We have found the ASX to be proactive and fast acting and believe they are the ideal organisation to present our petition signatures to.

Our proposed short sell ban would be structured as follows:​

• An immediate ban on the short selling of stocks in the Financial Sector;
• The unwinding of existing short sell positions on such stock; and,
• Careful monitoring of the market to assess if further intervention is warranted.

Our goal is to protect mum and dad investors, retirees and self managed super funds from having their wealth erased and their quality of life reduced by this hostile trading method.
We ask that you share this petition with your friends and family who would like to have their voices heard. For more information, please call us on 1300 720 292 or email us at invest@australianstockreport.com.au.
