Sphere 3D Corp. (ANY)

OK maybe not a small loss... I don't know their cost basis. But what I do know is that ANY is trading closer to the price range for when they were last shorting substantially, which was in the April timeframe: $8 - $6.90.

Coincidentally, there appears to be hit piece rhetoric being posted on SH at the moment.

I have suspected for a while that the shorters are not divulging which broker they are trading out of; I see alot of Anonymous bids on the L2 at the moment. Someone on this board also noticed a trading pattern with the shorts trading amongst themselves at higher prices (perhaps with RBC). Coincidentally, RBC has an ask limit order block at 8.30. Again, I suspect a tactic to try to get rid of shares from both sides - bids and asks.
