There's an interesting analysis out there of one of the main short groups and their history of trying to tank companies

They tried it with a Canadian company and it fought back in court, won, and is very successful today.
They take a short position and then go on an attack blitz through other fund managers and the media to scare lenders and creditors.
They magnify any actual issues and manufacture fake issues and spin and downplay any positives.
They are basically the worst type of people.
It feels like this is a similar spin on a standard supplier/buyer negotiation.
Tesla to supplier: You quoted us X price when it wasn't clear if we could live up to our proposed demand for parts. We've proved we can do that going forward, so let's negotiate a new price and have it be retroactive to this date.
