His brother or his brother-in-law or my brother or my brother-in-law, how about my cousin or my uncle?...

Anybody could have a business relationship with anybody else, and those other anybody's can act on what you, me, Van or anybody says is going to be published/going to go down.

So nothing can ever be proven about this kind of trading on this kind of privileged information —even if it does exist; very hard to prove collusion.

Look up the stock, CLNE. See how one Seeking Alpha article with an inflammatory/fear mongering title and a one-sided presentation of opinion masquerading as fact took $150 million off of their market cap/share price overnight? the writer of the article was a self declared short, only because SA editorial policy requires that the article writer declare any and all positions in the underlying stock. A mere $20,000 short sale "investment" would have netted you $4000 overnight, as a short seller.

Of course the article and the short-sellers set it all up– the coordinated attack on the company reputation and on the company's stock took place very nicely during the silent period when basically very little news can be released legally by the company.

This case is not all that different. The guy with the newsletter says something that you would not expect him to say, and about 300,000 shares get sold as a result. Makes people wonder..

I'm not making any accusations here whatsoever; however, I only trust my integrity.
