Watching Aphria longs cite Citron's recent positive comment about the company just pegged the needle on the Hypocrisy Meter. When Citron bashes Cronos or CVSI then folks say Left is just another scum-sucking shorty who's doing a hit-job on yet another stock so that he can make money by ripping off innocent if not gullible shareholders. Yet when Citron says something nice about their stock these very same Aphria fanboys suddenly think Left is a world-class stock analyst with impeccable credentials.
Apparently people here despise smear-and-dump tactics (I'm not a huge fan of the practice myself) but pump-and-dump is just AOK in their books...as long as they themselves can profit from it, that is. One thing's for sure...ain't nobody here gonna get any consistency-in-logic awards any time soon.
Likely one of two things going on here with Citron...either they went long on Aphria when it was down in the high $3s or low $4s and Left is hoping to amplify the dead cat bounce so that he can dump it for a quick buck. Or Citron's hoping to pump the share price back up so that THEY themselves can then short the crap outta it and make a quick buck. After all, can't let Grego and QCM have all the fun and profits, right???
Either way, you can be pretty damn sure Left is looking to make a nice little quick gainer here one way or the other...that's just how the dude operates. Hell, that's pretty much how EVERYBODY operates, from the looks of things.
I loathe liars...but I absolutely hate hypocrites.
