Even if BIGB1 Barry is an obsessive, manic, crazy loon who thought he was a United Nation Ambassador/Diplomat and got thrown in prison for it considder this...
Eddie Vakser announced to the whole world that he had signed a "letter of intent" (LOI) to possibly "ACQUIRE" Barry's company, then announced he "HAD ACQUIRED" his company.. and then proceeded to PUBLICLY AND REPEATEDLY PRAISE HIM TO THE HIGH HEAVENS IN PR'S IN ORDER TO SELL SHARES. Example>
Either Eddie is the superior businessman he claims to be.. trusted and backed by a deep pocketed hedge fund...
OR--
He's a pathological con man and grifter who thinks nothing of exploiting anyone and anything he can --no matter how sketchy or bogus as now claimed-- after supposedly conducting his weeks and months of genius level DD--
OR--
He's a hopelessly incompetent fool who is repeatedly screwed by those whom HE chooses to partner with then later blames when nothing he promised happens.
Remember EDDIE REPORTEDLY SPENT HOURS IF NOT DAYS IN FACE-TO-FACE NEGOTIATIONS WITH HIM and STILL decided "yep..this is my guy...I can really use him and his over-the-top claims to run up this stock. And when it fails to deliver I can blame him like all the others."
