GRN Holding Corp (GRNF)

OK..this is really weird for a CEO. Was looking at Justin Costello’s Facebook page and on February 27th he posts the following......

“I want to thank my friend William Meshel for alerting me to a trade last night. I am not going to say what I made on the trade but it was substantial even for me. I will be making a special trip to Texas to see William. What a mitzvah!”

He states, “I am not going to say what I made on the trade but it was substantial even for me.”

No sooner does he make this post, then he follows up with,

“It was a 265k buy at $11 and a $1 mil buy at $11.50. We exited around $18-$19.”

Anyone think it’s weird that a CEO would brag about some alleged stock trade? First stating that he’s not going to say what he made, and then turn around and tell everyone what he allegedly made?

Very strange that GRNF’s CEO would publicly boast about some alleged stock trade, tell people he won’t say how much he made, and then turn around and tell people what he allegedly made. Really weird for a CEO to publicly boast to his shareholders about trading some unknown stock.

IMO, Mr. Costello is overcompensating for something, trying a little too hard to impress people. In all my years, I’ve never seen a public co. CEO boasting about alleged personal stock trades publicly to his shareholders.
