Thanks @GoodBoy. Two days 0 RSS. Maybe no one willing to loan out shares now. Selling own share will have a limit. Let's see tonight on net short position to confirm if buy back started. If started, can also predict potential increase from remaining buy back amount :)

Could it be EPF buying more share and do SBL for those IB to short the counter again?

I doubt it. EPF has a lot anyway, don't need to rely on recently bought shares to loan. Furthermore, it's getting too close to Q announcement plus divvy. Not enough runway for shorties to close position later. See net short position later to see if it reduced. Yesterday and today 0 short on Kossan, we see if the short position volume change is big or not lo.

You got a point there. EPF possible expecting bumper dividend from Kossan (due to announce their QR by early Feb).
Anyway it is a no brainer to pick up more share at this price.

To kill the shorties, everyone pro Gloves and contribute to EPF should write as a member to EPF condemning the lending of shares for RSS esp when they hold a significant stake in that counter. As a public mutual fund that is mandatory ( Cover also workers from the Glove Industry ),
they cannot help depress share price ( Affect the worker's benefit in terms of ESOS). I have written a couple of letters to EPF and also Star Biz. Hope you all do the same. You have the right as EPF member to voice your concern. Only EPF is able to lend them the amount of shares required. Seems they have stop shorting TopGlove and Kossan because cannot find lenders.

Make sure that RSS guys cannot borrow from EPF again so that they have to buy back from market. Write Email to EPF to Question why they throw stone at own feet or taking planks from wooden house to use as firewood. Remember that lending to SBL is lending a tool to depreciate your own asset value. As a member we have the write to question their investment decisions.

Supermax is best performing from Dec close, Kossan is still under Dec close by quite a bit. Another way to look at it, it has more upside :)
I'm still convinced that shorties couldn't loan from anyone now, hence 0 shorting for last 2 days. Instead, they target the other Glove companies hoping that bringing them down would influence Kossan to drop as well. This may work as Glove investors developed somewhat of a herd mentality, one Glove company impacts another :p
So far, their attack on Gloves have not been successful. They are still hoping that their losses could be narrowed. But their window of opportunity is closing rapidly. Why? Quarter reports are around the corner and they are likely to post record numbers yet again, with likelihood of all to follow TG footstep of paying divvy every quarter. Covid numbers are not getting better fast enough, governments increasing testing efforts instead of JPM's view that testing is decreasing. So yeah, JPM really missed this by a long mile :p
I think many of us are delighted that net short position didn't change yesterday. So, shorties have to buy back 55,609,863 shares before divvy ex. I'm looking forward to a great run up to CNY. Good luck guys! :)

Agreed! All Big 4 made a higher low with the turn on Friday. With some news floating on mutants evading antibodies and concerns around efficacy of Pfizer with the vaccination programs thus far, its fueling a lot of energy amongst the investor community.
I think Kossan being the only Big 4 still below the Dec 2020 close probably stand to gain the most with the renewed interest in Gloves. Time to gather additional funds for the weeks ahead! Good luck guys! :)

Yes they are charged interest to hold short position. Someone calculated hundreds of thousand daily for TopGlove. Just a matter of time b4 the close their position.

I guess the interest is daily rest by closing price, hence they always try hard to lower the closing price. They must maintain 10 %in margin account, when price down then interest lower and also 10 %of total borrowed amount. But when price up the borrowed amount becomes higher they have to pay more interest and might hit margin call if their fund less than 10 %of borrowed amount. If they can't top up then it will auto buy back shares using the money they short sell untill hit 10%of total borrowed amount
