Hmmm... bit misleading.

The crash doesn't seem to be related to the Viceroy report. They've been on a downward trend for the last 6 months...

Also, Capitec seems to have recovered to pre-report levels, so that part of the article also looks wrong.

The short-seller is also targeted banking group Capitec in a series of reports, claiming the bank was a loan shark and also manipulating its loan books. The claims sent Capitec’s share price crashing, and it has not since recovered.

Do we have to add MyBB to that list of fake news websites or is it Bloomberg? It's a very easy Google-able thing to fact check, use "Capitec share price"

It is just a one or two ' staff writers ' / ' journalists ' who consistently churn out blog-like posts [with little to no research].
