Raging Bull Readers Beware



Certain posters on Raging Bull are professional traders trying to influence you and others to sell a stock you might otherwise planned to hold. Their goal is to manipulate the stock to a lower price. They attempt to influence you by posting misinformation. These professionals will post information that is not true, but sounds credible and creates concern. They may also post information that is true, but add editorial comment that presents the truth with a negative connotation and "spin". These professionals operate on Raging Bull under anonymous Raging Bull identities. This anonymity is how they avoid liability for their activities.



One such professional trader that exemplifies the intent and the tactics of all these professionals operates under the Raging Bull identity EVEN. A quick review of the various company boards where EVEN posts demonstrates a correlation between his posting efforts and companies that have recently raised money through a public investment in a private equity.



Public companies, particularly small companies listed on the OTCBB, raise money through private investments in public stock, convertible debentures and convertible preferred stock. These financial structures typically, though not always, provide an investor with stock at a discount to the market price. The discount is a risk mitigating compensation offered to the investor for providing a company with a large cash infusion. These type of investments can be abused in a number of ways. They can be abused by the investor and they can be abused by professional traders that are aware of the investment. The investor might want to benefit from a warrant may be included with their investment and, in turn, hire a poster on Raging Bull to help drive a stock price down. A professional trader that did not invest, but is aware of the investment, might work to short the stock down to the discounted investment price and then buy shares at the discounted price to fill the short orders.



Below you will see the correlation between a sampling of the company boards where EVEN chooses to post negative information and companies that have recently been reported as having received financing from the sale of discounted shares. This correlation strongly suggests that EVEN is working to short stocks down to the discounted prices. This activity is marginally legal if not outright illegal.
