Seems to be common now, in case a company does not do the right things.

When Simon Worldwide (Cyrk) employee scam was uncovered stock traded down 86% and has not recovered since.
Same as flour city...and many others, stocks barely recover from their damage...

He's also the same shithead that was pushing for Personal Watercraft (i.e. jetski's, waverunners, etc..) to be banned on MN lakes a few years ago because sales of his boats were being overtaken by sales of personal watercraft.

(MN has more boats per capita than anyone.. what does he want??)

Sleazy....


Critics say Jacobs looks bad backing Conseco while he's selling its stock through affiliated entities.


Pay the piper...

Jacobs, the Pohlad family and associates appear to have invested more than $70 million in the software firm. The money is now at risk if allegations prove true that the company's international operation was largely a front for Cyprus mobsters.

hope for eternal springs...?


"Irwin has apparently done little actual research on AremisSoft," said David Rocker, managing general partner of Rocker Partners, a 32-year-old, $650 million asset investment firm in New York.

"His investment philosophy seems to rely on bullying. He did that with managements in his earlier days ...and now he is doing it with legitimate short sellers who seem to have done a better job analyzing this company."

I was wrong! AREM was not a $5 stock as I predicted a few weeks ago. No, in fact, it is a $0.69 stock. BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

Effn Irwin Jacobs.

I don't know if Rocker Partners, TheStreet.com, and others named in Jacobs' suit have any legal recourse, but I'd sure like to see Jacobs held accountable for his attempts to bully and silence the critics.

That said, after CNC and AREM, I don't want him to stop shooting his mouth off altogether. He's becoming quite the contrarian indicator.

Kudos on another stellar call.

regards,
