show newest message first

So I'm using pine to read news. One thing I don't like is that it puts the
new messages at the very bottom. No problem if it is a light activity
group but If there are alot of messages, it can take forever to scroll
down. Is there a way to show the newest message at the top? or
alternatively, is there a key to go all the way to the bottom?

Thanks

There are ways to do both things that you are thinking.

To go to the bottom, press the END key in your keyboard, or press ^W^V.

To put the newest message at the top press $ R A. You can make this
sort permanent by setting a rule (press M S R O to do this).
