TOMMY, ???? Saying business model is in doubt and Concordia is a tough pill to swallow is not optimistic. Thought you were a bull on this bull board, why you post something to just get more followers for Cohodes?

lnvestor198 - haha, I didn't like that headline or closing sentence either, but let's face it, when a stock is under attack by short-sellers, there is no question at all it is a volatile stock which, for a conservative investor, would be just too much for them and place doubt in their minds.

I agree. It has become powerless shorters favorite stock. I am invested, stuck, lost, with others because board and leaders don't know what to do.

TOMMY1, thanks for your post referencing the article.......I think it is important for investors to be aware of arguments, both pro and con, regarding a particular company, and consider them (or dismiss them) when making buy/hold/sell decisions, and I appreciate you sharing what you've found...........
