RE:RE:Last week’s fraudulent short attackThey aren’t saying shorting is criminal. I don’t think anyone would read it that way so now you’re the one trying to influence people.
A short attack would be a scenario where some goes short, and releases an extremely aggressive piece to sway the market. The criminal part would be if the underlying information is inaccurate, purposefully vague, or has misleading/fake information. The article in question was just that.
