Funny thing is sooo many people bought specifically because Pike was buying and he "had" to know something. Not to mention he kept the price stable, without him it would have been a slow bleed.
I'm staying firmly planted out here in the "I think Pike is dirty" zone. He's acting innocent, claiming to be a victim just like everyone else. IMO, thats just posturing.
and if he really was deceived and so stupid as to invest $18mm in a pinkie, he should be put in an Insane Asylum for the next 15 years.
