Ron/BC,
Thanks for correcting me – yes, WPM.TO was Still_learning’s pick.
I also heard that TD was the most shorted bank worldwide but I don’t think “they” really know what they are doing. Years ago, a popular short for American hedge funds was the “Great White Short” which did not work for them, except for the covid scare and recently but I don’t believe it will continue. Anyone who is short has to cover the dividend, which is currently ~ 4.5%.
This is an article from 2020, so not current, but I think the concepts are still relevant.
