Tuesday looked like the peak at 34.91% of total volume, can't see yesterday yet. Regardless they are either balsy or insane IMO, after all the previous incinerations many have been through to date, Greed has to be the primary motivator.

delayed data though, so a lot may have covered now (in the last 1-2 days)
& 3% is not an unusual or worrying amount - barely makes the top 100 most shorted ASX list eh

Does any body know where to look for when shorters are covering? Shortman shows % of short sales = shorters are buying and selling? Thamks.

Took the plunge and sold a parcel of FPH yesterday when it rose, and bought some ATM at $11.30 with my freed up capital ... hopefully not a bad decision

Welcome aboard the rollercoaster. I recommend picking up a good supply of anti nausea tablets at your local chemist ASAP. Motion sickness is sure to strike soon !
Probably the most volatile stock on the NZX.

So out of interest (since I'm trying to get my head around this shorting business) what sort of margin do shelters have between their sells and buys? Is it a cent or two or do they drive bigger gaps?
