    Number of shorts (29m) today down to where they were in October 2018 - 20m covered at what must be horrendous losses as the sp moved from around A$9.50 to recent highs of $14.00.

    So will shorters try to 'game' ATM sp again?

    More likely the remaining shorts are hoping like hell for Jayne to sell so they can get relief - so stock is underpinned by short covering activity in the next few months at least.
    Shorts been 4 days behind with roll over around 3pm daily my estimate of Short positions are approx 25m remaining and as they diminish so does their power. Yesterday was a part holiday in aussie. Probably some buying still to come from recent Investor Day and any weakness in SP be top up time for many. Didn't sell many in last rise and moved small amount to sell at high $15's as gut says heading even higher. Report from SML and next Chinese shopping extravaganza on 618 June 18th with Shorts still closing will all be fuel for the fire..............

    After I saw the recently released ATM research with a sample size of 5000 that showed something like 80% plus benefit from reduced tummy problems with A2, (trusting my memory on this research so please DYOR) I thought Yay! ATM are gonna win the USA case........ however reality is legal challenges are seldom black or white... always shades of grey..... and seldom fast. Think Samsung v Apple. This could take ages.

    That said, the whole debate and legal cases/appeals etc should help awareness of ATM and grow the USA market for them.

    Can't help thinking Jane's recent USA investors update is all part of the strategy to fight this case. Someone suggested a possible USA listing...... wouldn't that be fun!

    Goldman estimates that a2 Milk Company’s sales on the platforms grew 89% on the prior corresponding period and stole share away from Mead Johnson and Danone

    Today's SP action may be last desperate attempt to close Shorts before SP pushes higher. My thoughts that a2 was under priced appears correct imo with price target now .............GS BUY RATING NZ $16.50 & A$15.99

    I suspect some profit taking and dropping it across to SML

    My thoughts as well...... all good stuff for the traders. (I'm not one.... prefer long term tax free gains.)

    Meanwhile, news of Nestle stepping into A2 fresh milk in Sth America

    TA indicates a possible short term fall back to the gap between $A12.75 and $A13.00 (approx $NZ13.20 to $13.50 ) that may need to get filled before the SP moves higher. See the red line on this pic.

    Attachment 10395

    That said and done the TA is then looking favourable, golden cross and all that. FA also looking good according to Goldman Sachs...So be patient.

    However some think TA is rubbish so DYOR. JMHO.
