It is a worry that an analyst is privy to such confidential information about a company. ASX Companies are not supposed to disclose information to analysts which is not in the public domain. I hope this was the analyst reading between the lines and nothing else.
The Strip Ratio was high in Q1 and what the GXY BOD should have told the shareholders in the QR was:
1. Why the SR was higher.
2.Whether it was a one-off or likely to persist for a specified period.
3. The likely impact on C1 Cash Cost & AISC.
4. The likely impact on production expansion to 50kts PQ in Q3 & beyond.
5. What actions they were taking to remedy the "unforeseen" problem.
They did not (fortunately for me!) and by being deliberately evasive, we are left with the impression that it is not over. Looks like the analyst maybe correct.
In my view when I invest in a company I am giving my money to the BOD to spend it wisely and increase the company's value. I expect the BOD to respect my contribution as a shareholder and keep me 100% informed of everything that is going. good & bad. I don't mind bad but I expect to see plan to fix it and fast. If they get it wrong, then get out and let someone more capable run the show.
GXY' BOD lack of information sharing shows they have little respect for the wee shareholders so they deserve to be imbued with negative sentiment. Maybe the subsequent SP decline will force a change of attitude in the BOD with ultimately be the everyone's benefit.
In the meanwhile they deserve to be shorted.

Yep, the quarterly raised more questions than it answered. Given that 15% of its stock was being shorted at the time of the quarterly, you would have thought management would want to be on the front foot and tie all loose ends. The evasive nature of the report only raises more red flags and the SP is deservedly being punished. My target price is $2.25, which now includes a 10% discount for increasingly incompetent management
