Super Funds lend shares to short sellers
Short sellers drive down share price
(often using algorithms to illegally manipulate share price)
Private Equity take over the companies that have heavily reduced share price
Administration companies make sure the favoured private equity firm takes over fallen company
Private equity company relists the taken over company on ASX
Super funds invest in relisted company knowing fully well it is not good value
Super funds again lend shares to short sellers
Repeat, repeat, repeat
When I mentioned the whole cycle in my video on Virgin Australia, I mentioned three companies KKR, Bain and TPG.
This happens all over the world
