Q: LSPD has issued a response to the short attack:

https://stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2021/09/29/lightspeed-comments-on-short-seller-report

I would be very reluctant to sell shares in LSPD and more inclined to purchase more. Like previous short attacks on high growth companies like SHOP and NVDA, I'm quite sure this one will prove to be bogus and just another cynical attempt to profit from the resulting sell-off. In the case of SHOP and NVDA short attacks, the short-sellers who issued the reports even pledged to give lavish donations to charities if the stocks recovered (In the case of SHOP, $200,000 USD was pledged if it ever rose above $200!). Wouldn't we all love to buy SHOP for that price today?

My only question in all of this is whether there will ever be any regulatory control over short-attacks that can be proven to be opportunistic.

Q: I asked this last week but haven't seen a response yet, so ignore if the answer is pending. I hold these as a basket of spec stocks looking for extreme growth. I've done well with all but MTLO and I'm wondering if it still fits here or if I should let it go and roll into the remainder. Would you have a favorite one or two from this list? Any you would run away from?

Q: I was watching Xylem's investor day presentation today. One of the things they mentioned was:

"Underlying demand continues to be robust, with higher-than-expected growth in orders and backlog, but the global supply chain environment has become increasingly volatile, including with respect to escalating electronic component shortages. The Company currently estimates adverse revenue impacts of approximately $100 million in the second half of the year"

Is this part of the reason the stock is down today? I own it in my margin account, and was planning on starting a small position in my RRSP. You think this dip is a good entry point?
