RE:What I do not understand ...Hey meetoo, Not everyone visits the board every day, there are new developments (like the amended law suit Donnatal firing fiasco, photorin termination, taken off the the nasdaq bio index, etc etc. so I for one appreciate that shorts and longs keep posting credible news. I want to know if there is insider buying (I doubt there is much they can sell that hasn't been sold) and its easier just to go here or to twitter than to search it through the insiders. Thats what social media is - sharing information. If your problem is on people on twitter than why do you follow people who you want to shut up? Lots of people make fun of Donald Trumps tweets- like when he made a spelling mistake over the weekend and the jokes that came out of it were hilarious or #TrudeauEulogies If you are going to have hurt feelings like the ex-ceo's feelings were hurt than you are in for a tough ride as I think that its obvious the story isn't over here. So Im inventing a new hastag on twitter in your honor and I will send your concerns over to @BagholderQuotes

We even acknowledge that it may be correct. Concordia may end up bankrupt. What I do understand is why, given that everyone knows it, having heard it from you or figured it out for themselves, you have to keep repeating and repeating it over and over again, with incessant sarcastic tweets and jokes. If this not somehow in support of your own selfish aims, what are you hoping to gain at this point. The stock is already more than 95% down from its former peak. Are we supposed to really believe, at this point, that you are trying to promote some sort of public good? Sure, maybe at one time you were. But now? I understand that the egg farmer has a hard on for MT, and justifiably so. The law suit is stupid, and the Plaintiff was a horrible CEO. There is alot for which he should be called to answer. But what is to be gained at this point from excessive ranting about the company? If it is going to go bankrupt, why not just let it, and take your short-selling profits in due course? What does non-stop tweeting and posting about it do. Those who are with the stock now, know your message. Rightly or wrongly, they have elected not to heed it. Why not shut up and let things play out as they may?
The same applies to the short thesis on Canadian housing. IF HCG and EQB are going to go bankrupt as a result of a houseing crash, why not just let it happen? What is to be gained by repeating it over and over again, with jokes and sarcasm throughout? What is making fun of their CEOs supposed to accomplish? The compulsion to do so, if it is not somehow perceived to be helping realize profit from a short position, is, to me at least, suggestive of some sort of personality disorder. A commentator actually referred to that on BNN, although I think the precise words that he used were "socially awkward".
