Remember, BBANBOB's modus operandi is to cover all the bases with his commentary, so that he can always say he was right about any particular topic.
One day, he'll say COOP is worthless, then the next day he'll say it's the best investment you can make. He says the acquisition probably won't happen, but that it will be great when it does. That way, he can hold himself up as always being right--or, more importantly, that he's never wrong.
