Activist short-seller Carson Block shot to fame when he wrote a damning report on the Chinese forest operator Sino-Forest. He founded Muddy Waters Research, the investment research firm, which took up the mantle of looking “through appearances to a Chinese company’s true worth.”
Contrary to his usual stance, Block took a rare bullish position on Canadian junior miner Snowline Gold (SNWGF). The renowned short-seller believes that the company has made a “first-of-its-kind” discovery in the Yukon territory of Canada.
