What about the possibility that a third party acted on its own accord to pass on non public information indirectly to Mr. Woodford, how would that put a damper on things? That also might be considered a type of "interaction" right? Best wishes.
yes he did say it happened - Woodford already publicly acknowledged receiving inside information that would prevent him from buying more shares until that information is made public: https://woodfordfunds.com/words/insights/wpct-april-2016/
Back in September 2015, after the stock fell from it’s high of $12 to approx $7, Woodford met with NWBO management and found “nothing untoward” regarding the screening hold.
