One might wonder why "certain longs" were so loudly against it as recently as a few days prior to the PR.
As a matter of fact, I was called a FUDster, a bear, and a short for years for arguing that Advent should be an NWBO subsidiary. But hey, even zombies can eventually wake up from their sleepwalk.
I also find it incredibly amusing that zealots like Hoffie, Bio, Danish, and the lot always insisted Advent was an NWBO subsidiary whenever I confronted them. They reasoned that the Sawston facility, CDMO equipment at the facility and staff arrangements proved that Advent was an NWBO subsidiary, which was and still is BS. I remember screaming contests where I pointed out that by that logic, American Airlines would be “owned” by Boeing because they lease planes, or by the landlord of AA’s headquarters. But no—when it came to Advent, suddenly different legal and economic rules applied.
And now these same groupies are praising Powers about what a brilliant move it is that NWBO merged with Advent. So how is that possible if Advent was supposedly always an NWBO subsidiary?
Hilarious how the zealots can reason which way they please if it suits them.
What I wonder now is, how are the shorts going to rewrite all their scripts about how NWBO is a fraud, what with no one-liners about LP building her own CMDO at shareholders' expense?
