Re: Conspiracy theory?
"some people wanting to depress the value of Super Micro" "some aggressive investor maybe"
I recall a well-known investor that once "broke the bank of England" through currency manipulation, etc. [and has done so in other cases as well]. This guy's billionaire rich, too, and interferes in politics a LOT, indirectly sponsoring MOBS of people that disrupt, etc. via well known 'charities'. No names mentioned, of course [probably don't need to]. And as I recall he was once known to have collaborated with Nazis during WW2. Yeah, THAT guy.
Yet, I'd hope that Bloomberg reporters would be smart enough NOT to fall for a plot hatched by THAT guy.
Selling short on Super Micro could've gotten a 30% or better return, maybe. I don't think he's been known to have manipulated STOCKS, though. But if he did, there's probably a record of it somewhere.
It's back to that old journalistic trope, "follow the money".
