OSTK ceo

Quote from tomcole:

some judge seems to have allowed OSTK's lawsuit to go to trial. seems gradient or whoever objected was over ruled

The judge denied the Defendants' anti-SLAPP motion. An appeal of this order automatically stays any further proceedings until the appeal is decided.

Anybody want to guess whether Rocker, et al, effectuate an appeal? Wake me again in about a year. This case is going into hibernation.
 
.......the sec questioned three former Gradiant employees. I think we know what they said.

"After the shareholder meeting [in April] this year, I'm going to give some serious consideration of whether I'm going to stay as chairman of the board," the elder Byrne was quoted as saying. "Patrick and I have had some wonderful times together on Overstock, but we've also had some stormy times. I'd rather keep my relationship with my son than be the chairman of the board of another company."

Not long or short the stock; but wonder if OSTK will sue ;

all data providers for thier ''negative earnings''comments, like MSN & YHOO,
inventor of 50 day moving average,
inventor of 200 dma,
analysts responsible for concensus ''moderate sell'',
people who put ''NA'' where PE number normaly is.:cool:
 
Let's say this story breaks exactly the way the good Dr. said it happened. Will the NY press recant? Will you guys? What if he has been defrauded? Does GS apologize for lending out more stock than they had a right to lend?

Just asking.

sure. if it turns out that rocker,cramer,greenberg,sec,congress,goldman,many unnamed hedge funds,bush and the media all conspired to cover this up as you claimed i will admit you were right.
if a few illegal short sales show up you are still wrong because nobody here ever denied that possibility.
 
Ouch, that's gotta smart Patty boy:

But the happenings appear to be weighing heavily on the elder Byrne -- and his concern about the resulting distraction. Earlier Thursday, the Globe and Mail of Toronto quoted the elder Byrne as saying: "There may be something to this, I don't know whether there is or there isn't. I wish he would just pay attention to just running his company. That's the problem with the world today, sons don't do what their fathers tell them to do."


Patrick Byrne has often referred to his fight with these shorts and analysts as a “jihad,” and he has also been critical of journalists – including several columnists employed by Dow Jones & Co., publisher of the Wall Street Journal, whose work he says aided the shorts.
“I can’t tell whether this ‘jihad’ adds to the value of the stock or subtracts from it, but what it does is takes from Patrick’s time,” the father continued. He says he has voiced his concern to his son “endlessly,” but so far hasn’t been heeded.

vhen, don't forget the "Sith Lord". PB promised to reveal who he is.
