But... If something is really got value, and if an investor have the money, he can definitely push up the price while buying within the "margin of safety", and "squeeze" out any shortist. I believe this is what BlueKelah mean by "squeeze shorts for grossly undervalued companies".

Yes! if we can get rid of some jokers when we buy-in and support the good companies then why not?

The 1 lot trades are usually done by brokerage houses. I reckon sometimes they need to keep the counter active and trade amongst themselves.
actually i like shortist to short the price down... so i can buy somemore! Big Grin
Personally I hold this counter and I know that the property it held is a catalyst when announcements for the causeway linking Johor to around Singapore Changi area turns into a reality.

that may be a long time coming. As things are, Johor is pushing the iskandar region with the Senai airport in support, already built some new terminals there. That is on the TUAS side of SG.

There is not much benefit for a third link to changi as desaru is a holiday destination and is pretty much empty during the monsoon season...
